Give me a stinkin' break, you spoiled brats. Why is it that everybody else in the game is allowed to die in less than a second, but you can't? This is supposed to be a "Rock-Paper-Sissors" type game where everything is supposed to have some type of viable counter. Tank kills Sniper. Anti-Tank/Special Forces kills Tank. Sniper kills AT/Special Forces. Getting the drift?
Airpower has run UNHINDERED since this games release with absolutely NOTHING that could consistantly kill them even when you have the drop on them. I can't give enough examples of Helo pilots laughing at me as they fly away after having enough rounds pumped into them to give the pilots lead poisoning. Or what about when you pump 20 rounds in to one with an APC only to have it turn around and blast you to scrap. Or what about when you nail a Helo with a 120mm smoothbore cannon on your tank and the pilot turns around and sends you to heaven with one strafing run.
Ya see...the problem is that most of the NTFBs have no clue how deadly AA is in real life...hence their tactics in the game are based on a false perception that air power trumps everything. Newsflash, NTFBs...something with radar tracking or puts up 4,500 rounds per minute is SUPPOSED to be respected and is supposed to kill you in less than a seconds. That is why you avoid the stationary ones or kill them with TVGMs. Now, instead of flying around the battlefield and laughing like an NFL linebacker playing in a high school football game, you have to worry about something that can actually challenge your superiority.
Instead of jumping into a thread and whining about how you can no longer get 20 to 1 kill ratios, I suggest you STFU and start thinking about how you are going to need to change your previously "untactical" tactics. That is what we have been doing while trying to figure out how to stay alive against your previously unchallenged superiority.

Amen! I'm sure we all have horror stories about lighting up an attack chopper with a positive lock from an AA battery, actually have a round impact the chopper (which is amazing in its own right) and have that chopper immediately turn around and destroy you in one run. Alot of ppl have been complaining about how the patch makes it unbalanced. No, now it IS balanced. Finally an oppurtunity to put up SOME kind of decent defense against air power. Agreed, they should have just fixed AA to be more accurate and damaging instead of lowering HP's, but this is what we got for now. You can thank DICE for that . Now either go have fun guys, and adopt, adapt, and improve, or go find a new game.Beatdown Patrol wrote:

very nicely said there bud!! I couldnt agree more...what a screwed up patch job.uk.solidsnake wrote:
Great, so aircraft have been weakened so that people on the ground can have a better gaming experience. I guess it doesn't occur to a lot of people that for some players, aircraft is all they can do. Some people only enjoy flying aircraft, others enjoy ground work.
Sure, aircraft are powerful, but flying a chopper or plane around on a heavily populated server without being shot down is difficult. If a jet is whoring on a map, it generally has nothing to do with the game mechanics. It's because your pilots aren't doing their fucking job. If a jet is dominating the skies, get in your jet and give him some grief. Don't moan that aircraft are overpowered if you aren't even attempting to hinder their whoring. Some people talk about aircraft as if only one team get them. Both get the same vehicles.
U guys have obviously never been on the recieving end of a jet whore bombing your position in 10 second intervals. Or not getting to drive 10ft w/o being bombed. or useing an AA battery in hopes of shooting down the aircraft only to have nothing happen.1SFG-Hawk wrote:

I cant wait for the 1.25 patch to come out
It will be called "We fucked up, so heres your game back"

Because you cant ground combat...You cant CQB....and God knows you cant fly. Ive seen your filthy little dick trickle stats.Beatdown Patrol wrote:

Give me a break dude 20 kills IAR. requirments for Arial service ribbon are 19 IAR i believe. i got that ribbon in my first week playing this game using a jet. don't tell me it's hard getting that many kills in a round being a pilot because it's not.bhnrecon wrote:
Everyone bitching about plane whores this is for you.... have you ever gotten in a plane and played a round??? Me and most of my clan are good piolts... i personally have over 60 hours in the jet... try to get 20 kills in the f18 or f-35.... it is not easy if the other team has a GOOD not great just a GOOD piolt in the air... if the teams are stacked even... then the planes should have a hard time bombing the ground, due to the fact that there is someone on their ass.... so with that being said... i haven't had a chance to play since before the patch came out sometime last night, so we shall see what it does... also... i didn't have a problem shooting down planes or choppers before this new patch... maybe everyone crying here just didn't realize to wait until after the helo or plane had flared to fire both rockets.... hrm.... pitty... all i have to say is if EA/Dice has made this game a pussy whiner's heaven... most of the ppl that i play with will leave the game...
Again... well put... this is a squad based game... the reason that i can (and the rest of my squad can) run around and have a K of 20+ to 5- is because we WORK TOGETHER... new concept??? i think not... 1 medic... 1 support, 1 spec ops.. and 1 Assault.... that is a squad that you will HAVE to come after with 2 APC's ....
In the real world... their is radar in jets, and other "objects" that provide the piolt with a means to ID and take out most threats to him while he is FAR FAR FAR out of site... where as in game all you have is 2 cluster bombs, 6 sidewinders, and guns... that is not a good air to ground load... personally i would be bitching if the planes carried Mavericks or other AGMs then that would suck... example
http://www.airforce-technology.com/proj … su254.html
so to all the people with tears out there about "plane whoring" just STFU... the planes were at a "disabled" state to start with... i agree with the AA being improved.. however i don't think that they should have taken HP from the planes and choppers... glad to hear NoobTubing will be reduced... c4 frisbees being gone is ok too....
just EA before you SCREW the game anymore... come to the players who have skill, and ask us before you screw the game up... besides... the people in game that have 500+ hours are making you money... planing to buy the "booster packs" and they appear to play the game more... (time in game being the factor) you should listen to ppl like that instead of listening to ppl with 60 hours ingame crying cause they bought the game late and can't keep up with the rest of us... for god's sake i have more time sitting in AA then some of these guys have in game.... /rant

Can anyone tell me if the new ranks come with patch or do we wait for the booster?
The sniper rifle does not kill with 1 chest shot. The sniper rifle owns the whole game. The sniper rifle has headshot seeking bullets thoughMrBrain wrote:
I see an possible exploit(?) with AT mines. The servers now got an option to turn off friendly fires for AT mines separately. I.e. all engineers will throw mines as crazy while being on the enemy side it's not possible to blow them up anymore with a tank/APC. As it isn't hard enough to see them, now you can't destroy them even if you see them.
And mark my word for it, there will be A LOT of AT mines on the ground from now on.
The red bug is still there, and the GL (GRENADE!!!) got a smaller blast raduis as if it wasn't small enough before. Also there is a rumor that says that the new sniper rifle kills with one shot i the chest also.
A lot of unbalance to a pretty well balanced game as it is (except for those crappy stingers/AA-vehicles)
