Why wont you guys shut up about "in real life blah blah blah" unless you make everything realistic in the game it doesnt work. yeah in real life you gotta wipe out the AA first, but it doesnt magicaly respawn a few seconds after...

By the time youve blown up the last AA the first one will have spawned so its bullshit what you are saying.
The patch is to provide balance and make the game more playable you moron if it was Real life I would take your rifle, kill you with it and carry off your mom.
Pfft so just say it makes the game more playable dont quote all this shit about what happens in real life.

I've seen many a pilot avoid missiles now, and piloting now takes more effort. 

You CAN have a good flying round with chopper OR plane if you've got genuine skill. 

I've seen a few people that are good at it - but - the catch, now the AA can hit them IF you've got a good shot on them and plan right.  The range of the AA is just enough - where if you wait for the flares, then get a new lock - they can go out of range and get away!  Imagine that? 

It's all about if you're careful or not.

AA works - but it can be avoided if you play smart.

My personal trick to avoid aircraft and missiles, happily, still works.    I'm not giving that up though ... heheh ... as I don't see many other people pulling the same stunt. 

Takes effort - planning, timing, skill.  Gone are the "easy" days of flying.  I like it - I think it's balanced - AA and Air.


But yeah, the Blackhawk should be able to take a couple hits & do flares faster.  It's big and slow for a reason , plus there's a crew of 5 guys (well, sometimes) to reload the flares ... but 2 direct AA missile strikes - 1 strike should hurt it bad, 2 should bring to the virge of death - where you can parachute out just in time - 3 AAM shots should be blow-up.

The AA has been made less powerful, it is just as accurate as it should be now.
The AA is fine, it's just a lot different from the useless bullseye decoration it used to be. Get used to it, you are actually going to be shot down every now and then.
