Stealth Heli Repair System is ridiculously OP-far better than other veh rep

@doubleome Fairly convinced one of the leads is a helicopter main and sucks at infantry, so they want to make sure they always can grab an OP helicopter to farm infantry for kills because that's Actually Good Design(TM)

@edgecrusherO0 even streamers like Silk who are heli mains hate on the 2042 heli's because they are easy mode and even a complete bot can get dozens of kills with them.

[edgecrusherO0]

@foff667 "Easy mode" if you're a good pilot, sure. I'm not, and fully admit that, also why I don't bother flying, but any good pilot is basically unkillable between aircraft mobility/tankiness and map design affording aircraft TONS of place to hide behind all over the maps, with the fringes of the maps all being super safe.

@edgecrusherO0 and if they launch s4 in late Feb with all the content thats pretty much it...sure you'll get some skins/guns along the way but when it releases is when it releases...play enough and you burn through all 100 tiers and thats it. All I'm saying its once S4 drops thats it...at that point they've fulfilled their dooties.

@edgecrusherO0 you don't need to be a good pilot to get kills, I've flown as a secondary in those things with some really bad pilots that somehow managed to get 10+ kills before running into a rock face or just crashing because they tried to capture a flag lol. Like you can be bad bad and still get a high Kd if you wait for the heli to spawn.

@foff667 I've gunned with good pilots and honestly...I usually jump out because after spending 10 minutes flying around shooting at stuff...it gets pretty bloody boring.

@edgecrusherO0And that's why I hate you now. People do that because boring... Even though it gets boring but your role is huge against enemy air vehicles. Usually I give all air vehicle kills to gunner. As said, health regen gets fixed. And again I repeat, if some helo dominates, it's not op, it's ur team.

[edgecrusherO0]

@Man_iLoveFishing Why? Because I find the deadass design of aircraft boring? Because I want to vacate the seat so someone else who might actually want to gun can gun? Because I don't think being in OP vehicles flying around, unkillable for 20-30 minutes per round is fun or interesting?

Don't get me wrong, it can be fun. I love air battles especially since they're the only potential threat to the aircraft I'm gunning in and can get pretty "white knuckle" at times.

But how am I the problem if I find DICE's boring design that leaves aircraft overpowered and not fun to be gunner in for 20+ minutes straight...boring and broken? I'll jump in a transport craft as a repair monkey for a while even, but that similarly gets boring and is often totally unnecessary with good pilots as they're rarely even getting hit to need repairs to begin with?

[foff667]

@edgecrusherO0 I've done that as well, particularly when I sense they are a bad pilot about to crash for no reason lol. Also the secondary gunner seat in the stealth chopper leaves much to be desired.

@EA_Atic Tuning the repair will help very little or virtually nothing. Why didn't you just tweak down stealth with 50% and kept the repairs as it was. This will lead to another month with ruined gameplay for most of the players.
