Helicopter duel is kinda messed i dont think they balanced it well, basically flares only stop missile hitting you ECM works as before but more reliable and better. So me and my housemate using coms ECM pilot and Flares gunner, we dominated on caspian, he went 28-0 i went 8 or 9-0 got hit by one igla disabled and repaired before he could reload and lock. When attacking i was shooting 1 heatseeker (which lock on insanely quick) waiting for the flares then giving it 2 seconds and guaranted hit if they arnt in coms or gunner using flares (give it 2 other wise the missle goes mental as doesnt hit) also i found with it bang on 2 secs i could get then 1st reloaded heatseeker to hit heli aswell before pilot could flare again then get 2nd one off and hes dead.

Could you try that again in English, please?

I got the impression that it was something along the lines of "A pilot with ECM + a gunner with flares + playing on public = destruction", but what's new about that?

Lol.... what do you expect? You ever tried to run and shoot a gun at the same time? :D

Well obviously, but i meant less accurate/more spread than pre patch

@Weebull, sorry for poor English, writing dissertation all day kinda kills the brain, Its quite hard to explain but simply:

ECM (pilot) + Flares (gunner) + Comms with each other - regular pilot without one of the pre-mentioned = PWN'd destruction
 
Exactly. It's something that's really difficult to get right. How do you let people join as a squad without unbalancing the game? The more people you have in your party the worse it becomes.

Wait until people drop and then switch. Or if you're feeling really generous, move to the other team to balance the game, regardless of what party you're in. It's actually kinda fun to kill your friends too! :p
 
Indeed, we play with 6 of us normally so it's a case of get in the game on any side you can then switch around till 3 on each side if possible.
 
Had my first go post patch this morning, not sure if it was my imagination but I seemed to do a little better. Did not get killed once by the explosive shotgun rounds which was cool. Is it possible that private rented servers can filter what weapons are used as I was playing on some random russian server apparently.

Forced myself to go back to some of the earlier weapons and they seemed pretty useful.

Also managed to kill my first OC'er, sorry shifty, I blasted you in the face with a pistol when you were defending an MCOM. :D
 
Patch is quite good, ultimately getting shot of the overpowered usas and famas would have been enough to make the game a lot more fun. Rush mode is way more fun now it doesn't ever turn into a frag round holocaust!
 
I wish they'd hurry up and get it on the 360. I was getting trounced by a load of USAS frag-round gits on Noshar last night. Painful.
 
The most painful thing is the indestructible Helicopters, and the lock on time from the portable SAMs, then even though you had a target clear as day, dead set in the scope, you had no lock on, and an utterly pathetic zero range on them.

How would they do that? just move people across to the other team if a squad of 4 is joining? what if they are already in a squad?

Even if you join a completely empty lobby the game will still split the squad up rather than keeping your squad together and letting others join. It makes the whole squad thing a bit pointless sometimes.
 
Got to say having to download over 2GB worth of updates is a joke. I had to download the 1.04 update (i think thats the one) 3 times! as it would crash on install and it wouldn't save to the hard drive. Well done Dice.
