Taking out a sniper across the map with a SRAW is incredibly satisfying.

Alright i'm gonna say it, Since the Heliwhores say that the Stinger/Igla are for noobs because it's easier to kill choppers with them than rpgs, then using little birds/attack heli's against infantry is for noobs because it's easier to kill them than with a rifle. And AR's/carbines/lmgs are all for noobs because it's easier to get kills with them than with a butter knife. Sorry Heli pilots but there will always be a stinger/igla to ruin your 90-0 kill, I have to worry about armor, air, and infantry trying to kill me at all times i'm sure you'll be fine getting shot down once every couple of matches, you guys don't even die most of the time.

You know, I'm tired of you butt-hurt people, bitching about how lock-on AA's are "nooby" and you should, no, you MUST use "skill" and use RPG's and SMAW's to take out heli's. Heli's are OP as it is, I know, I'm good in one. Taking away the most used method of taking them down is just unfair. You guys are lucky it takes TWO rockets to take down a Scout Heli when in the real world, it only takes ONE rocket. Seeing as that Dice, supposedly, try's to make this game as "realistic" as possible, they still put in a few twists so that this game doesn't turn out to be one difficult bummer. Not many, In fact, a SMALL majority of people have said "skill" to use RPG's to take out Heli's. I'll admit, I'm shit at leading shots, so when I play Engi, I use a lot of lock-on launchers. I'm proud of my 500+ kills I got with my Stinger. Also, don't give me none of that "Stingers are OP" bullshit. There are plenty of tactics of avoiding a simple stinger(again, coming from experience). The reason you THINK their OP is because it's the most commonly used method. Another reason would be that you are BAD at using Heli's, and when you die from a Stinger, you immediately think it's OP. I'm willing to bet money that if Dice ever gave Stingers and IGLAS a nerf, Heli's will become even harder to kill, people will soon start to think that now Heli's are OP, and then people will want that nerfed. Resulting in unhappy gamers, people will think BF4 sucks, and shit will just hit the fan. THIS IS MY OPINION ON THE MATTER, you may agree with my, or you don't. If you comment, PLZ make sure it's respectful and that you don't type in anything ignorant to my comment. I respect other opinions too, so please feel free to state it here if you like. TY, and have a nice day. :)

Totally agree with you. There are more times than not that I use stingers and the heli just flares or whatever and gets away from being destroyed. The fact that vehicles generally take 3+ hits from a rocket to be killed is pretty ridiculous to begin with. As a poster above noted, a real life javelin will absolutely destroy a tank in one shot. (it also is not reloadable) I dunno. It is always strange to me how Dice like to be hyper realistic in some respects and unrealistic in others.

As it is now the balance is fine, which is exactly why it takes two rockets to take out a chopper.

You forget that also in real life, bullets damage aircraft. I would rather see standard guns do damage to aircraft than have stingers. I appreciate the fact that helis are annoying when you are playing infy, and the urge to stinger is strong, but I hate being shot down by stingers, because it is mostly from either people going on the offensive with a lock on weapon, or some buthurt heli/jet pilot that got shot down trying to get a cheap revenge.

A lot of people forget that battlefield is a teamwork based game. I have no problem admitting i suck with launchers and heli/jets, but people forget that if a sniper, engineer and support ran anti-air that prevents the other team's heli/jet from taking out your team's vehicles. A team well organized can dominate the field. Sadly, most matches involve players going rambo and wonder why they lose. People rage about rockets..maybe your team should take out the anti-air squad or be better pilots..This isn't CoD...racking up loads of kills wont cut it here on Battlefield. Team>Self. EDIT:Most people who rage about lock-on rockets don't have the skill to avoid them. and quite honestly, only want to stay in the chopper to rack up kills without anyone interfering, that isn't being a "real" bf player, it's restricting the other team to avoid them taking out your chopper so you can attack foot soldiers uncontested like a sore loser.

Fast lock on weapons and slow replenishing countermeasures. On top of that add in a "critical energy mode" where your just a sitting duck waiting to be hit again because you can't move and you can't use your countermeasures because you already did, but they didn't work and your vehicle was still hit. Sorry for the rant, but this is just one of the problems in BF4. Hope those updated servers by DICE fix a lot of issues. Hooah for optimism!

@AlutaShade

10 жыл бұрын

There's definitely a fine line of balance when it comes to the lock on weapons vs the countermeasures. You can't have the countermeasures replenish too fast because then it would make the lock-on weapons useless. What's the point of firing multiple stingers if they are all flared away easily one after another. But you certainly shouldn't implement such slow replenishing countermeasures that three stinger missiles can hit you before you get them recharged. I think the stinger and IGLA should both require you to have to maintain a lock for it to be effective. They both do the same damage, so it's literally just luck of the draw as to what faction you spawn in as at the start of the game. You also have to realize as a heli or jet pilot that if you're constantly being locked over a certain area, you need to change your tactics. To avoid being taken out, just run away from the area once you deploy countermeasures. DICE definitely needs to add below radar back in to the game, and have it actually work against stingers and IGLAs also, unlike BF3 where it was SUPPOSED to break the lock of an IGLA or stinger, but never did. It's a very fair trade-off. As a pilot, you can either fly low to avoid lock on weapons but leave yourself at risk of being taken out by a tank shell or RPG, or you can fly high and avoid those tanks and RPGs, but he exposed to easy fire and forget lock-on weapons.

@tufcat92

AlutaShade There would be no point in having a Stinger AND an IGLA if both required you to maintain lock and did the same amount of damage. The Stinger is a fire & forget weapon for a reason. If you don't have time to stare at an air target then you use that. The factions are just different soldier skins and don't determine what weapons you start off with. Unlike in BF3 there are no faction specific weapons so if you have the IGLA unlocked you can use it while playing as the US or Chinese soldiers. I do agree with the below radar thing.

I'm also a huge fan of helis, but you gotta face the facts. I mean, when you're in a chopper killing enemies how do you expect the enemies to kill you?, I mean let's be honest to hit a chopper with an RPG or s-raw you need to have a certain degree skill that not all players can master so easily, which is why is 1 hit kill, but even if they're good with those if you're a good pilot, you can manage to avoid them most of the times, unless you get really close, even you said it, you "nod in respect" because is not easy to do. My point is that infantry needs to have something else to defend themselves from a scout and attack heli, otherwise we as pilots would just waste them, we just don't get close enough to be in danger of RPG's and we're set through the match. But I also see your point and share your frustration as pilot (here's my battlelog: PS3:battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/soldier/Kanon_of_Gemini/stats/348142308/ps3/ and here's the PS4:battlelog.battlefield.com/bf4/soldier/Kanon_of_Gemini/stats/348142308/ps4/) As you can see I friggin love Scout Helis, anyway, if you ask me it would be better if dice nerf the stinger a little in order to require more skill to use it, I don't know, maybe if take a longer time to lock on, and make the stinger an always lock on weapon too, make the chopper not so easily destroy-able, you know what I mean? there are times when even after a hit you manage to land it but the heli is still spinning and if the tail hit something even if it goes like 1 m/p and your heli is still with half life it gets destroyed... that's so frustrating, there are 32 enemies on the opposite team and only 1 persona with 1 stinger is all it takes to take you down... I'm not even gonna mention the MAA, all I'm gonna say about it is that I can tolerate it if it's not using active radar missiles and if it's NOT CAMPING IN ITS BASE BY HIS CENTURION.

I always try to take out as many as I can, so I look for objective on which is happening biggest air, or ground vehicle activity. Then I choose appropriate rocket launcher for that corresponding situation, and spawn at nearest point to my targets. I usually use IGLA and RPG, but sometimes when I need to take care of attack boats, the Javelin comes in handy.

You do realize that after the series of nerfs the guidance is completely useless on it? The missile currently has a lock range of 15 meters and an acceptance angle of 10 degrees, so the missile can only lock at targets in a circle of 5.2 meters diameter 15 meters in front of it - in other words it would have hit the target (tank, LAV) even if it didn't have guidance in almost all cases.

Just FYI with the SRAW: you can fire the rocket, choose a target by looking at it, and then zoom out and do something else. The rocket will just continue towards it's last known laser designated point. It's also possible to aim, shoot, stop aiming and let the rocket fly for a little bit, and then suddenly aim again, and make it go towards a new target. It does have a maximum flight time though, I've seen one blow up in midair.

Also the seaw can be reloaded faster by coming out of ads, the sraw will continue to travel to the last spot you were pointing to, you can then reload the sraw while it flies towards its target.

I gotta say the SMAW is probably my favorite. If i'm not using it on conquest to down helos, its a great long range weapon in TDM when you need to deal with a sniper and your primary just wont cut it!

They need to take that re-lock mechanic out any attack chopper pilot will tell you this. When I deploy my counter measures I should be safe for any previous lock-on threats. This makes in too easy for stingers. If you want to take a chopper down you should either need skill or teamwork.

The Igla is the only one that can relock, and you can still easily dodge it with proper flying and ground cover use. Your countermeasures give you time to evade. If not, Q.Q somewhere else.

yeah caplevel is a pretty awesome player I just hope he can answer my question. if he doesn't I'll ask factorX or Oimitam :-)

my fav rocket launcher's are the RPG and the Stinger. The RPG is great for shooting down tanks and concrete walls, while the Stinger is so reliable to take down flight vehicles.

I agree level I love the SMAW takes time to master but when you do it's worth it

When I first started playing battlefield, I used the stinger and igla all the time, but now I don't because I'm not a dick anymore.

Levelcap, I would have liked damages on the rocket launchers a little more specific than "a little more damage than.." and "a little less damage than..." like exact damages from firing a rpg or smaw from each side of a tank, I.e. front,back,sides,top damages. A little over 9 minutes for a guide on all the rocket launchers is really inadequate.

Hey LevelCap you should do a challenge where you have to use all bullets in the magazine before your aloud to reload and keep up the great work

Dear Levelcap, you do know that the ps4 has had the update of the javelin and stinger put back into the game but it seems it isn't on PC? The Javelin 1 hit kills all helicopters upon laser designation. It also does 34 damage and not 30. The stinger does 45 on ps4 which should be 35. Not sure if it is 35 on PC but it seems that the update that removed the power and nerfed the weapon was put back in with Naval Strike. It also seems to be that not many people have noticed this even when i commented to Matimi0 about this.

They also need to remove heat seeking weapons from being used when parachuting, because getting stingered/javelined from the sky is just beyond a joke.

On a side note, you're not required to stay ADS while using the SRAW. You are able to line the rocket up and drop ADS and start your reload. The rocket will continue in the path it was taking as long as your didn't jerk your aim while dropping ADS. It's handy to get quick shots off on somewhat stationary targets without keeping yourself exposed while stuck in ADS.

Grayson Young I embrace it in my arms and hold it dear.

I personally think that the igla/stinger should not be in the game. They are just an extra way to take out air vehicles without any skill. That's why i have never used either of them, and have about 100 kills on air targets with my RPG.

@AlutaShade

10 жыл бұрын

I rarely ever used the stinger, IGLA, and even the javelin in Battlefield 3. I'm a Colonel 100 with almost 1,500hrs logged on the game and I have less than 100 kills with each of those launchers. Probably not even over 100 kills with them combined. My javelins always just get deterred from tanks popping smoke, and not many people ran with a soflam. So they seemed useless to me. I trust my skills with an RPG far more than I do with a lock-on weapon. I have no problem leading targets and am fully aware of the angles needed to hit a tank with an RPG to receive maximum damage (you can two-shot a tank with an RPG in the rear at a 90° angle provided they aren't running reactive armor). As for the stingers and IGLAs, it always seemed like mine would easily get flared away or the jet/heli would ECM and I would never get a hit. I've tried and tried to take air vehicles out with them consistently and it just never works in my favor. However, any time I'm piloting an attack chopper, I'm getting locked from the enemy's spawn even though I'm on the other side of the map and I deploy flares, but they fail and I still get hit. Or I'm starting to get locked, I pop ECM to break it, but somehow the enemy was still able to acquire a lock and the missile just spins and spins around my chopper and then re-locks after my ECM cloud disappears and I get hit. Can't even tell you how many times I've raged because my flares or ECM failed and an enemy got a kill on me, then in the death screen he's miles away from where my chopper was. So fucking annoying, stingers worked for everyone else in the game but me :(

I personally use the stinger defensively. I don't hound one air target down like most assholes do I just use it when being threatened directly from an air target. Makes the game much more fair. I actually find that if you conserve ammo and only use it if you're being directly attacked by air than conserve ammo for multiple air threats.

@AlutaShade

Jarod Miller This is what I do as well. I almost always run with the RPG or Smaw, but if an attack heli or jet is being especially annoying or can't be taken down easily, I'll pull out the stinger/IGLA and spam the hell out of it. Basically, I only use it if there is a huge threat on the enemy team that is dominating the map and causing difficulties for the rest of us.

My way of describing them: SMAW: Ease of use launcher. (well kind of anyway, obviosly harder than MBT-LAW but easier than RPG, use when you think you're not a newb or noob, but not pro either) RPG: Good ol' high risk, high reward machine. And I wouldn't want it another way. SRAW: Deceptively dificult (wire guided, but VERY SLOW), but fun to use as well. STINGER: Fire and Forget, nuff said. IGLA: Not neccesarily harder to use, but you need to actually do some effort besides firing it. Speed demon though. Also chains less frequently MBT-LAW: Welcome to BF4 here's an MBT for some warmup. JAVELIN: Do you have friends in BF4? I guess I do agree with you but in a less harsh way. EDIT:My personal choices: SMAW,IGLA (I use them all, but these are my personal favorites)

Also great for learning how to take down the air vehicles. RPG-7: Dumb, but super effective! Don't forget about the drop. Stinger: I'm lazy. Igla: I'm not that lazy. Javelin: Hey, you have SOFLAM unlocked, right? SRAW: *fire* crap *fire* shit *fire* hold still! *fire* YEAH GOTCHA (mostly this happens with choppers). HVM-2: I'm really really tired of that chopper. AT-4: It's like an uber-RPG but you have to throw it away after the first shot :( And every launcher has +10 chance for enemy to write "rpg on inf nub" in chat, should you score that kill :3

After about 200+ kills and multiple choppers picked out of the air with my SRAW I have actually chosen to go back to the basics and getting good with the RPG7, all prediction and other aiming quirks needed. I would definitely recomend getting good with the RPG7 over the SRAW, with the higher damage and fire and forget nature of it just makes it more versitle. The only time a SRAW is more useful is for taking out vehicles at ridiculous ranges, which isn't really a priority for someone who is not near said vehicle.
