will aircraft be getting a buff?

bit annoying seeing every chopper get brought down by rifle fire/sniped instead of emplacements and vehicles

Can't buff aircraft without updating the specific addon packs which is a hassle. It's just a result of 10+ guys shooting it with high powered guns, hind gunships have like 35k hp. Increasing it further means you have to buff stingers and emplacements to massive damage, which results in problems of its own.

People just need to get smart with it tbh, way too much people stay in the aircraft waiting to die instead of bailing and parachuting

Moving quickly with the helicopters is far more rewarding than going slow and taking your time with shots, it rewards those who evade attacks consistently

nerfing ptrs for tomorrow, was fun while it lasted but it gets a bit boring seeing a ton of people constantly use the same thing when we're trying to diversify everything

Own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended.

Four ruffians break into my house.

"What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle.

Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot.

Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog.

I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms.

Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion.

He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up.

Just as the founding fathers intended.

insurgents getting free scrap guns is the best choice possible. they will fear the makeshift pdw.
I got the jump on someone with that and even though they didn't shoot back for 5 seconds I still lost lol.
Use that scrap smg it'l treat you well.
