Re: Anyone been in the 1.2 air? Its thick... in fact

Erm. A pilot who has honed his skills up to be what he is can be shot down by a guy who "jumps into IGLA, fires 2 shots, jumps out and collects 1-2 kills".

This is not balance, ladies and gentlemen. This is mockery.

Quoted for truth... but you won't get much love from these CS players. :laugh:

I took 8 people out in about 3 minutes on Dalian while testing. 2 jets included.

Bye bye plane lovers.

Re: Anyone been in the 1.2 air? Its thick... in fact

Wow.

Hehe, peoples makin me laughs!

Um, yeah... we knew that the patch would bring major changes to the way that AA works. Now, it seems, air forces are suddenly reliant on the ground forces to clear things like IGLAs out. They're gonna have to avoid SAM sites. They're gonna have to watch their tails for fighters.

The game changed. Adapt or die.

I'm looking forward to getting shot down a lot while I figure out new ways to make the BH work well. I suspect I'm halfway there already since I love gettin nice and low where AA can't get a LOS on ya (hint, hint).

Re: Anyone been in the 1.2 air? Its thick... in fact

everyone thank the cs players for complaining to EA to make all air vehicles completely useless

Completely useless? Why because they are no longer flying fortress's? No more rounds where pilots rack up 50 kill's and only die once.:cry:

Screw it, Im installing BF2 back on. This will get interesting. Hell, maybe yelling at a AA guy "OWNED" will be justified this time...

And about those CS players. I get owned by them pretty bad. They never catch me whine about it though.

I have never, ever whined about a n00btuber. Most of the people playing infantry do it all the time. At LEAST, at least, youll get something in your face.

Re: Anyone been in the 1.2 air? Its thick... in fact

nope, its seves a damn fine roll, insertion/resupply, it was never intended to be a combat support weapon.

You're confused. It's role is now "twelve free points."

LOL. That's what you think: wait until you actually try it...

Re: Anyone been in the 1.2 air? Its thick... in fact

So the new problem in 1.2 will be...
ppl TK each other for getting surface-to-air missle :laugh:

Teamwork? Blasphemy!

Oh my God you people are ****ing black and white: there's a difference between having the air vehicles being air fortresses and making them more vulnerable to ground fire! There's absolutely no balance and you thickheaded retards simply don't understand (or care to, anyway).

Its true, this is what AA is now.... And to those who say the really good guys will adapt.... The only thing they will adapt to is having 2 n00bs on AA's waiting to see you flare and then taking your ass down with two quick shots. May I repeat, if you have lock on.... NO MANEUVER will get you out of having those missiles hit you. Trust me, I have video proof! Hold up while I convert it.

Re: Anyone been in the 1.2 air? Its thick... in fact

This is not balance, ladies and gentlemen. This is mockery.

So only pilots and commanders (the minorities) should have ridiculous K/D ratios and have games with 60 kills and 2 deaths? Infantry (the majority by default) now can compete with air attacks. AA was useless for so long and all pilots had a field day, now with these upgrades there is finally balance. Don't be sad, it's not like any of you are going to lose any points for exploiting us infantry soldiers for all these months, you just have to deal with fairplay.

Re: Anyone been in the 1.2 air? Its thick... in fact

ALL THE WHINERS THAT DON'T LIKE AIRCRAFT CAN *EDIT*!!!

Now that that's out of the way. Why make the jets and helos so useless. The helos were already so vunerable from so many vehicles and soldiers. Why make them so useless?

Talk about screwing the game over.

Good job EA. You made the game so easy, all the longtime players will now feel worthless when some retarted monkey can kill them without any skill. Good work.

Well we know how the teamwork is on many servers. Praying for someone on the ground to disable AA will be long shot. And 3 minutes later it will respawn anyway. Imagining Gulf of Oman is scary right now.

Re: Anyone been in the 1.2 air? Its thick... in fact

Actually Im going to laugh my ass off if this is the start of the era where jets are parked on the runways and /or used as the Jihad-jets as someone above described.

Im kinda disappointed, kind of let down and in the same time Im so damn curious. As an avid jet pilot I feel like "Nah, this wont happen to me. Im too good for that.". Jesus Christ if I see an IGLA turning my maneuvers into prolongued death

ROFL. Jesus. I mean. Wonderful. AA was never completely useless. Get over it. Practice, practice, practice. 100 hours in a jet should never, ever be equal to 10 seconds in an AA. Thats the whole point.

Imagining Gulf of Oman is scary right now.

Yeah, Im going to use the Hotel as a lock-breaker, LOL
