I've got the 1.2 patch since it came out and yesterday I was finally testing it while in a jet and there are some notes about the patch I want to make:
Infantry is more fun now(don't know what to say about the support class)
And please don't say that I don't know anything by saying this because I used the GL a lot and I sometimes automaticly jumped (hopped) to get away from enemy fire.
Jets vs AA are more balanced now:
Let's face it, before the patch the AA was a joke every time they wanted to shoot a missle at you.
But it has bugs: Yesterday I was locked and I dropped my flares and it scared me for live.
The AA missle "hitted" all my flares, so it was making crazy angles (It missed my plane but it was scary).
The only thing that needs to be changed that the missle don't fly backwards when it has passed you and the crazy angles it is making.
I have been in a plane a lot (you can look at my stats if you want), and I didn't need to adjust my planetactics that much (I added some BF1942 tactics).
I had rounds where I only died because I didn't see our heli (srry).
Jet vs Jet:
Too bad the dogfights are less fun now.
When a pilot is behind you "you're dead".
The rockets are crazy, I even shot a rocket that went underneath a JSF, (I think it even got it the water), and it made a straight angle up into the plane.
I haven't been in a helicopter a lot so I can't tell much about that.
I just think that when you are in a heli you need your gunner/infantry/arty to clear out the AA first or you are good with the rockets you have.
This is my opinion about the 1.2 patch.
Please don't flame me for it or say that I don't know anything about Battlefield because I can tell you this:
Played BF1942 since the demo untill BF2 was released.
Played BF:V when it was out (M60+Law fun), but I keeped playing BF42 because some patched made it more unbalanced and it was missing the feeling you got while playing BF42.
I even worked on mods (XBF and helped other mods) with both games so I know enough about Battlefield don't you think?
Any serious thoughts could be helpfull (not the: 0mg LOL, planewhore are getting 0wned now, because I haven't seen much of it while flying).
