@whipanfnaenae @Brammflakes just google "effective combat range 5.56 assault rifles".
it will tell you numbers up to 500m for accurate point fire. 100m is nothing.
if you are a sniper and that close, you are simply doing it wrong. 300-500m is the sweet spot with a x6 scope in this game.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@d_b242 @Brammflakes fly lower. they cant lock you when you stay below 30m. if you hear the lock-on sound, go down below 30m immediately. if the sound stops, no missile was fired. if its still beeping, flare. and pick a different route next time.
no nerf needed, you just need training.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@soyingles123 @Brammflakes loot the good items from the plenty of backpacks everywhere.
ask your team if they could spawn you the good vehicles.
plenty of ways to play with everything, without having to unlock it yourself. its a team game, just talk to them.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@11aArmy @Brammflakes maybe not hard limits, but maybe per-player cooldowns.
if your team isnt addressing the problems, they get out of hand. but if you do counter them in time, the same players cant just run it back immediately.
enable players to manage the difficulty of a match on their own.

@FlankPapa48304 @Brammflakes Everything you just mentioned is countered with one weapon almost no one ever uses, the MAAWS (carl gustaf).
That rocket launcher one-shots most of it (2 for the Havoc and Tank). Just bring it on that big backpack with the additional weapon slot. Its rockets just need 2 slots.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@MrPetrolstick @Brammflakes exactly. if you get countered by "no-skill" lock-on weapons, you are just a novice pilot.
and if you complain about the OP heli pilots, you just need to learn the counters, plenty of them everywhere.
as a pilot, i fear the experienced rocket launcher guy way more than true AA.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@SRS_SAM @Brammflakes i really like this idea. some sort of escalation system.
would balance the different types of players a lot better. and this system would give enough incentive to win fast, so you dont have to fight the stronger unlocks.
like a per-game wipe cycle.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@Banzai_eth @Brammflakes If you are not using T4 armor yourself, AP ammo deals less dmg to you. Thats anti-heavy-armor/vehicle ammo in this game.
If you fight T4 armor, aim for the legs or lower arms.
And if you really want to bully them, use HP ammo and high rate of fire weapons while aiming for legs.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@Chaos65x @Brammflakes You dont even have to unlock that stuff yourself. The .50cals are very loud, easy to find with a good headset. Just sneak up behind such a sniper and steal his stuff. They feel so secure with their ghillies, they just stay in the same bush all game.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@JohnBravoMTB @Brammflakes You need AP ammo. 60-80 shots of AP 5.56 to their weak spots (engine or cockpit glass for some reason) and they smoke, lose power, or already explode.
But ya, we might need a per-player CD on how quickly they can come back with another heli.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@L0nEOuTLaW @phantasyftw AP ammo in this game is mainly anti-vehicle ammo. you pen their bulletproof glass and deal a lot more damage to them. its also a bit better against lvl4 armor.
but its not the "i win" premium ammo you know from tarkov... different game.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@VeryBarry @phantasyftw No? They have good reasons for it. Just because you want something doesnt mean they fold...
Learn the meaning of early access.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@PuhtatoGames @Brammflakes @BULKHEAD @WARDOGS there are options already available to create low rank servers. you might have to look for a weekend warrior community server. should be a better experience for you, to play with players around your rank.
just dont force yourself into a highly competitive lobby.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@reidhslaughter @Brammflakes @WARDOGS late game support heli should deliver stuff thats needed asap. crates with meds and ammo for example.
or you switch to a combat heli and play the force multiplier.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@Ifollowtraders1 @Brammflakes @WARDOGS we need a rating system for pilots, so people can see if you are a good pilot or if its risky to wait for touch down.
you could try to talk to your passengers, but they have no reason to trust you.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@_n00bywan_ @Brammflakes @WARDOGS M249 not good against helis? use AP ammo and aim for the Pilot or the Engine. dont just dump ammo into random parts, learn the hitzones. you can even kill a humvee with it, if you hit the engine alot.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@HiebDE @Brammflakes @WARDOGS you're using FMJ ammo in this clip. try AP to counter this high tier unlock.
AP shreds another littlebird in one pass, should be way more effective against the Havoc.
IF AP ammo still delivers the same bad result, then we can talk about it.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@CalvZynisT @mann1911 @Brammflakes @WARDOGS just solve the problem instead of complaining about it. its a team game, rally the troops and hunt that piece of sh**.
its fun, trust me. just have to talk to people.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@Death1428597124 @mann1911 @Brammflakes @WARDOGS if you handle such system like a driver rating in a racing sim, you would start at a 50% rating. newcomers have a fair chance to gain trust by communicating with their team or by running supplies and gain rating that way.

[FalconDS9 @FalconDS9]

@fourthsealttv @Brammflakes @WARDOGS lots of people already complaining about the time it takes to get into the battle.
if you remove the helis for just a minute, you kill the game. only a very small number of the assault players want to sit in a car for 2-3mins.
next request would be to allow respawn at towers...
