[Gameplay] AA and flares - Page 4

Farks · 12-28-2007, 04:13 PM

This is just... Wow. Ever since BF2 was released, I've been dreaming about the day when AA finally is given the power it should have.

Two questions:
1. Will the AAVs have seperated driver and gunner positions?
2. Have the AAA gone through any changes/improvements?

The damage missiles do is random. Well not random, but it depends on the closure rate. 1 will usually heavily damage, destroy, or set on fire what it hits. 2 is a bullet in the head. We can get much closer to reality as far as handling goes.

I am wondering how the eurofighter will be balanced against the other aircraft, it isn't a whole lot better but it is quite a bit more advanced and has a much better turn rate than say the J-10.

im just annoyed that the DEVs talk about balance everywhere but when it comes to planes they dont give a rats ass. Idk how theyre gonna make an aproximation to the apaches ability to destroy almost every single piece of armour including AA vehicles in kashan desert within 30 sec. From 7 kms away...

A desert is a open area, which is not a good place for an Apache if the enemy has AAVs. Even if you managed to disable the enemies SAMs (and that would just be temporary btw) they can still use their AAA against you.

I think the devs know what they are doing. Let's wait and see if they have something to say about it...

What a great attitude you have. You might wanna play .7 before judging with the word "ass" in your post.

We can lock onto the armed littlebirds now so Qwai becomes a fair fight now right?

Well 1 littlebird with 14 hydras and 2 miniguns Vs a mobile air defense network? I think that as fas as air defense/ attack goes it needs to be coordinated by the commanders respectively. In PR the aircraft have never really had to rely on each other to survive, always just an arcadey button mashing.

Bekka valley is an example about how superior intelligence and tactics will prevail, regardless of platforms involved. I am growing tired of "oh well I have weapon XYZ, so I win." No, it should be "I have weapon X, my opponent has weapon Y, and now I will deploy in such a way that minimizes X's weaknesses and exploits Y's". So this whole mentality of building a massive wall of airdefenses or just charging into a SAM weapons free needs to be removed from PR.

Well the door swings both ways IRL. As good as SAM's are, there are just as many AG weapons, most with longer range and are not targeting a maneuvering object, such as a SAM site.

So what you are saying is.. if i dont use my flares i'll have them when i need them?... i think you need to re-read how the flares & AA work or re-read my post. Either way you seem a little confussed.
