One time on muttrah i hit a low flying attack huey right in the ass with a LAT and literally nothing happened. Pretty good to hear things are getting tweaked in the future update because i was pretty upset when he flipped around and messed up a squad an a half.

This is basically true for every vehicle in the game so long as you're not using a Stryker against a T-90... Crew skill is the real deteriminant of a vehicle's effectiveness.

The BMP-3 and any IFV with ATGMs will always be a pretty big deal. The autocannon is ridiculously good at taking out helicopters and ground targets, ATGMs will destroy any armor.

I dont agree with this. The Chinese start out with every single flag on the map, the americans certainly needs more assets to keep it balanced. The AAVs are big LAT, HAT and TOW targets which are only ever effective when behind friendly infantry for fire support. Theyre nothing like the fast moving LAVs or heavy abrams.

The CAS hueys are the only vehicle that could be seen as unfair. Ill admit theyre pretty damn powerful but I think they are necessary for the map due to the chinese starting off with every flag.

The problem with USMC's CAS-huey on Muttrah City is that pretty much everyone thinks of it as "something you can lose as the Cobra will be up soon anyways". I've seen the CAS-huey do a lot better than the Cobra.

THE PANTHER ... Used Right that thing is DEADLY to the max .... its Silent and extremely effective when utilized correctly. since the engine volume and consistency is soo soft and quiet its dam near impossible to hear .. even when it passes by you you might still miss it until the gunner starts going at it.

Seriously? COME ON GUYS.

THE A-10. You can't ignore the a-10's girth.

It destroys everything if used right. In fact, we probably need the A-10 on every US Army map cuz it's just so awesome.

It realy depends on the map. On yamalia for example transport trucks and supply trucks can be huge gamechangers. If your team employs them in great numbers they can carry the momentum of an advance for several flags. Same for other vehicles cas isnt very dominant on Muttrah but can rule the game on other maps.

I dunno Kilgore, I remember a Muttrah round with Jaymz as CAS on TG many, many moons ago. He was up pretty much all round wrecking any advance MEC made, and while this is a rare occasion it can be done. IIRC he had 70+ kills by the end of the round, making it quite game defining by the end of the round.

Any transport helicopter, anywhere. Like someone else said- even if the teams are balanced, the team that has trans choppers gets to be anywhere they want in an instant with a crate.

(Given trans is operated safely)
