Well here are my initial thoughts:

- Firstly UI colours are much better! Can easily make stuff out now and it all seems much more polished.

- The whole gun system feels completely different now, getting a lot of suppression assists now :o

- the stationary aa for the russian side on kharg island has been moved back to where the jets/helis spawn

IMO hardcore has been ruined now, you die instantly and really need to be even more careful, who ever fires first will win. Tanks are too weak in HC, 1 hit by a jav/rpg at the back and you're dead pretty much or even the sides and one hit by the TV missile instantly kills a tank. Needless to say aircraft is now the new completely OP thing in the game IMO and a good pair in the heli will just own the ground :(

Was just playing soft core there and the damage is still the same for it for some reason :confused: where people are a sponge for bullets, but it is better than being instantly killed anyway. Just a shame about the 3D spotting.
 
wow Dice done good with the jets, guns tears up cars and infantry for fun and seems to be more accurate, there is no more stupid 180 turns, dog fights are more interesting and challenging now as you have to work for the kill as the cannon does way less damage.

For me the game seems way more responsive and smooth, hell I may actually start playing again.

Lol matt I could fish all day with most people on this forum they bite so much I love it!

Yep very scripted response indeed, typing on my phone so hardly much effort put into it!

Like I previously said about 5% of the people who get in jets use heatseekers so this isn't really a problem dice have done its just so they stop retards getting in the jets and let the good pilots get in them which promotes better teamplay! Can't heatseekers land vehicles now can u?!?!?!

Hmmm interesting observation.

Btw what do you make of heatseekers issue?

You remind me of a kiddie who moans until he get's what he wants, funny you come back because something has possibly [i haven't tested jets yet myself] become OP.

Of course it needs fixing for the noobs, seeing as I don't use them it does not bother me.

There is no more pre-defined squads now, you just create one, another good move long overdue.

Awwww the miniguns on the Little Bird and Z11 are much worse now, still fine though as it seems below radar actually works now.

I hear that the transport chopper pilots now get more points for the kills their door gunners make though. Nice to see that those of us who like playing transport pilot will get some recognition for good flying :p

Yeah, this is a really good move. This was the main thing that put me off flying the transport choppers, no incentive.
 
Like the tranport and soflam improvements, finally make them worthwhile.

Tanks are worthless now :(

Maps will be won by the best pilots as jets are almost untouchable now :(
 
Early on I was in jet and got locked on and hit by either enemy jet heatseeker or stinger missile. Jet health went straight from 100% to 17%. I had no choice but to bail out. :(

I thought heatseekers were broken and that jets still took around 50% hit damage with heatseekers or stingers:confused:
 
Yeah the tanks are completely pointless now (still good on maps like bizaar though I find), why can't DICE adjust things by tiny amounts, not go and tweak it so much so it then goes to the other side of the scale?

Kind of loving softcore now as well :o
