      All I can say is

      LOL @ jet cannon hitreg.

      Cannoning jets that are going perpendicular to you FTW.

      I feel like I have a handicap in the F35 now. And that's after not playing for like 4 months.

          All the pro F-35 pilots are at the top of the BF2 food chain now.

          Not to say they didn't earn it, since all those tactics were forged out of necessity by years of being at a relative disadvantage. But they sure as f*** are having the last laugh now.

            It feels like easy mode...

            It's not even funny.. I had to leave a server I was in because I didn't want them to think I was hacking or something. LOL

              I wondered where you've been. I'm waiting for your 1.5 F35 report. :p

                Games is more fun now. I definately noticed the improved hit detection and the instaprone-instakill change. AA is slightly more effective but Jets and choppers still rape everything on the ground.

                  I totally agree on the jets/heli note. Cut the number of airpower in half and we could have a helluva ground game.:salute:

                    ... except this isn't a ground combat game. If that's your fancy, perhaps CALL OF DUTY 4 and COUNTER-STRIKE would be more appropriate.

                      Although with this reasoning it would make more sense for any stupid infantry grunt to able to shoot down a helicopter with one or two missiles that hit 85% of the time.

                          This is an incredibly poor excuse for blatant balance issues.

                            As an infantryman, you're not supposed to pose any significant threat to air vehicles. If this is difficult for you to comprehend, perhaps Checkers may be more to your liking.

                              It's the reason I have always loved BF2. Vehicles add such a good element to the game.

                              Speaking of COD4, I hate that game. Jeez, I want to like it, I want to play it, but every time I do I end up breaking something. I don't see the people killing me half of the time. It's these tiny little heads hiding behind things. You either don't recognize it's a head or by the time you do it's too late.

                                This is still no excuse for blatant balance issues.

                                1942 managed to do it right. 2142 managed to do it right. Even Bad Company managed to do it right. They've had ample time to address the issues that dice themselves have admitted to being present in the game but they have not once bothered to take a real look at the problem.
