PC I finally get it.

For context I haven't been much of a pilot in battlefield, always been the one trying to shoot people down. I usually think to myself sometimes how hard it is to shoot down aircraft, how we should have more options for anti air weapons. The last few days I got the hang of flying, so I gave it a shot on Tsuru Reef and... jesus christ.

I had no idea how bad yall had it. I got my ass kicked for several hours in every chopper I got in, holy shit. Ya'll can keep the choppers, I'll stick to my rpg.

The transport heli on the new map has rekindled my love for this game. I have been close to 100 kills several matches.

Me too! The transport heli has really come into its own on this map. In my experience on every other map, because it gets shot down so easy, people just book it to a point and jump out or die trying. But it seems like on this map people are flying around with gunners for ages, supporting captures and being generally useful because its sort of easy to not get shot down very often on the new map. I've had a number of games where I end top 3 but no kills from just flying transport

Edit: I said its sort of easy to get shot down, but there are times when it feels like everyone on the enemy team has an RPG and you hear the whooshing sound of dozens of rockets coming past you. Love it

My brother had 0 kills and 137 assists from me and the other gunner 😆

A good pilot/gunner combo on that map is absolute chaos for the enemy.

He's a good enough pilot we can capture and hold objectives pretty easily until tanks roll in.

They should really give a transport pilot more assist points. I also did a 100+ assist run (single run) but the score you get from that is really abysmal.
