Damn right this game needs stingers. All these 1337 "pilots" would have half the amount of points per round.
I disagree, that would probably take alot of fun out the game and people would kick up shit.
And whats the point? You already have infantry only coming.

Fun for who? A select few who load quicker than others? Or the ones who stand around the runway the whole round?Doggehspike wrote:

That`s all that needs to be said. Honestly, that hand-mounted Stinger might be more practical with its 6 rounds and almost undetectablility (in relation to other AA items) if the AA hadn`t been uber-fied with one of these shit patches. AA is already a sure hit, why make more of it? If you can`t do the job with what you have, go play on one of the infantry only servers, like stated above.Doggehspike wrote:

Most great pilots I know go 50+ kills and zero deaths. I think they would welcome the handheld stinger in the game to make BF2 more fun and challenging.
Nice I want them....Reminds me of Desert Combat (apart from the lock-on)....The only people who kick up shit are helo whores....
I think you`re speaking out of your ass. You can`t possibly know the feelings of anywhere near the majority of anyone who enjoys flying in BF2. And from that statement I take it you`re not a big pilot, which is fine. Don`t consider anyone who is, however, a whore and beg for easier and\or more ways to shoot them down.FFOLKES wrote:

I Say Yes & No,
Picture everyone on wake spawing with Stingers, i think it would work better if only 2 or 3 people in a round could spawn with it at a time, and only 1 rocket per kit, remember AA works now...

I just think it'll make the game to easy which will take the fun away for alot of people including people that don't fly.
thats exactly what the game neeeds so infy can have a chance agaist ppl who circle around in attack cobras raping a single base the intire game
EDIT; im nbot against base raping but the faggots who do it the intire round need to get a life

you should be able to choose between shoulder stinger and At rocket...so u can either take out tanks and get owned by base rapers in helos and jets or take out the base rapers and get owned by the three tanks and an apc roling inR3v4n wrote:

I have nothing against pilots. I only posted this for discussion. BF2 needs more weapons in the game. Obviously you have not played with some of the elite pilots or viewed their threads. They will tell you that flying in BF2 and racking up huge scores is a piece of cake.SysTray wrote:

By adding the shoulder stinger would make all air maps more fun and rewarding for everyone. However, I agree there needs to be a limit to the # of missiles, lock-on, etc.
If you would play Nations At War there you have stingers.. but yeah bf2 must have some too
AA sucks ass. I can't tell you how many times I've hit a chopper or a plane flying directly at me with both stinger missiles and they still bomb the shit out of me, and fly off for repairs. And don't say "oh you just suck in the AA.." - bullshit. One should take them down, two should blow them out of the sky. You know the planes are way overpowered.
And why the fuck can you spot planes and choppers before you can get a lock on them. Shoulder-mounted SAM's would be sweet, I've been saying that since day one.

Slightly off topic, but here's me with a real stinger in Desert Storm (1991). 2nd Armored Calvary Regiment.:

I don't see what the big problem is, if infantry only is coming why not play that instead of screwing it up for everyone one else that actually enjoys the way it is now?
no it doesn't
and to that guy how only knows pilots who go 50:0 each round - i would guess you don't know many pilots - because there are only a few in the whole world who can hold such a KD (i mean those who play more than a few rounds on a shiny new account)
Because sometimes you like to play with vehicles but you don't like to play rounds where the Havoc circles the TV station the entire time.Doggehspike wrote:

Well, theres a simple way out of this.... Spawn somewhere else.BolvisOculus wrote:

And if I remember correctly theres two spawn points at the TV station one with a stinger just infront.
yes and after the stinger i wanna have a infrared guided ammo fpr my m16 and nose-guided nades that go after stinky enemy asses..NO gimme a "I'm to stupid to aim BFG"...
no 4 real try to fly on wake @ a good server (means not everybody is a private) ull get stupid because of all the BEEEBEEEBEEEEEEEEEB!
bf2 is well balanced if you learned how to handle it....!
and PS: EA doesn't make it to bring out a patch at the announced time and you wanna have handhold stingers???

Usque Ad Finem
And where is the helicopter the majority of the time? Behind the TV station nice and safe from the stinger.Doggehspike wrote:

not always...if the chopper crew on the other team are just as good if not better...it can be very hard.FFOLKES wrote:

Well, in that case instead of trying to get it when it's behind TV how about running off and caping a flag so you and your team mates can spawn there instead.
That's completly off topic, this is about a way to take down a chopper if there is no grounded SAM nearby, not about my (or anyones) inability to cap flags. And trust me, if they only have the TV station, there really isnt anything wrong with the chopper there, where else would it go? It's when there are plenty of other flags and all that chopper does is sit there and rape, becasause no matter what, people are always going to spawn there.Doggehspike wrote:
