        In case some people believe otherwise, he never insinuated that the game should play like that. Some realism factors just should never get implemented.
        But as he says there are some balance issues in the game.
        And there is nothing better to fix these things by the use of realism as a guide to become good balance.

        Nade launcher effective but can't use up close and while jumping. Which makes it only usable at medium to long range. Which makes the assault class worthy again. Which makes the grenades not so present as it is now plus clearly three times better then the nade launcher. If you think of it assault is severly nerfed to the bone.

        Bla bla bla end of story ....

          F35 isn't a stealth bomber. A B2 is a stealth bomber. An F35 is a "military strike-fighter", with multiple roles like close air-support, bombing, and air to air capabilities. It does have stealth characteristics though.

            Because it's more REALISTIC. Realistic is better.
            If your talking about realism in relation to the game I have to disagree with you 100%.

            BF1942 is a lot more realistic than BF2. The weapons behaved and sound much like the originals (although the mods had better sounds), they fired similarily to the way they did in RL, in terms of impact, grouping and recoil. In BF2 the weapons do not behave nor sound anything like they do in RL. There is no random cone of fire in RL.

            The tanks and planes had unique characteristics and had to be used according to their strengths and weaknesses.

            BF2 went with a cookie cutter approach for the two sides and nerfed the game by using the random cone of fire to reduce skill differences between experienced players and new players. Everything in BF2 is bland and generic.

            Now POE2 did a good job in bringing back the diversity we had in '42 and BFV as well as having weapons that fire more the way they do in RL using recoil.

            Of course I am talking realism in the context of the game.

                i fell that the game should be realistic but not to the point where it is no longer fun.

                    100% huh, wow.
                    I was referering to the player models, animations, and graphic effects. I agree that the weapons etc aren't relistic. In other threads I've followed Gue's logic, that using realism as a benchmark from which to adrress imbalances and such is the way to go.

                    I just don't know how you can claim the player animations etc in BF42 are more realistic.

                        if you would like to have a bit of realism applied to BF2 you can join a realism clan, i suggest mine. the 77th Marine Expeditionary Unit (Special Operations Capable) "77th MEU (SOC)".

                            if your gonna complain, dont play. its a game. if you had to land your plane and wait for engineers to come repair you, that would be no fun. if your flying a plane, and all you had was a pistol and a knife, that would suck too. plus, i dont htink you have to buy joysticks for blackhawks in real life

                              2.F-35 is a stealth bomber. Yet is the easiest thing in the air to shoot down.

                              3.Hitting a 50 caliber sniper rifle into a specific spot of a choppers rotor engine should take it down, unless its a blackhawk cause those things are mad tough.

                              4.All military units are not to engage in residential rural areas unless fired upon or instructed otherwise.

                              5.Hitting the tracks of tanks would significantly decrease the speed and manuverability.

                              6.Jumping from an air vehicle at 50ft and parachuting to take a "flag" allows the parachute to open about 0.1% of the way.

                              7.A pilot is not instructed in the use of Rocket launchers, grenade launchers, or a foreign made Eryx as well as accurately firing a sniper rifle and hitting a target 300m away.

                              8.Hitting an enemies weapon disables it.

                              9.A fully loaded blackhawk is never piloted by someone who is too cheap to buy a joystick.

                              10.Stop complaining about how realistic the should be, and start complaining about balance issues.
                              1 - The game as you already know is not meant to be realistic by any means. The medic kit should have given that one away from the beginning.

                              2 - I agree with you

                              3 - A .50 cal rifle can and will take a BH down if shot in the engine. It can go through 2" thick steel armor, especially if it was an explosive round.

                              4 - Have you tried watching CNN lately?

                              5 - Hitting the tracks on a tank with an RPG would destroy the linkage, thus disabling the tank. It would have to be a direct hit.

                              6 - It's a game...:|:

                              7 - It's a game...:|:

                              8 - You aren't suppose to aim at the weapons, you aim at their head.

                              9 - The best chopper pilots I've ever seen use KB/M and NOT a joystick

                              10 - The game is about as balanced as it ever will be. After the 1.4 patch the game might be as close to 100% done as possible.
