Transport Heli Teamwork is OVERPOWERED in Battlefield 2042...

I fly the Hind a lot on Xbox one, and it is a fuckin monster when you have a good crew.

[@SilkOCE]

Was a fun time, I'll be around here and there for some games🤝

[@megafit24]

At the same time isn’t this teamwork what we want BF to be about? 6 players working together should be somewhat overpowered. You guys are just really good and take it to another level

[@Cowkill]

Exactly. You don't often see 6 guys playing like this.

[@SilkOCE]

True I guess. Nothing is stopping them from getting 6 players of their own and contesting us (which they did in a later game).

[@Mikeygamer1]

Ok but 6 players in the LAV (the tank that is a spawner) isn't able to 1v1 every other land vehicle in the game. Why not? Because it would be ridiculous! The nightbird has 1/10 of the transports hp it's just not balanced plain and simple 😅

[@macotronics1117]

Lets not forget the lack on in game coms that is what the worst imo.

[@SmallusDicckus]

1 time i got killed by a hind with a 40mm shot, the funny thing was i was flying above then. And he was flying upside down.

[@notlikeyou2408]

Reasons I don’t believe they will nerf the transpos is that its extremely rare to see a full one with good gunners majority of the time they are getting shot out of the air like you did in this video. Statistically it is the worst aircraft but i believe it is balanced having the strongest cannon in the game. It should be able to defend itself and getting a five piece should not be handed over easily. Battlefield is about squad play and this vehicle is great when their is a full squad in it. Please don’t get it nerfed silk even you were surprised it killed you because everyone thinks that should easily be killed but no one would ever fly it if that was the case.

[@marzipandan767]

I agree, it's definitely rare. Nerfing them would mean no one would choose them over the littlebirds, which would make getting around these massive maps even more difficult. Perhaps they could make the repair tool less effective on the transports? This would encourage people to fly better to dodge missiles and avoid areas where there is lots of AA. Also, the wildcats main gun shreds through them at even medium ranges, you'll notice in this video that the wildcats rarely are using their main cannon on them only using the missiles which are okay but not as effective with reps and flares.

[@zalcan3620]

@@iDeparture well ya a team working together and winning is gonna make an impression

[@bfvader]

It's not that the guns are overpowered on it, it's that two passengers can repair more DPS than two jets and an AA tank can put out. It's almost invincible with the right squad.

[@molsen7549]

12:20 I really don't see why this would need to get nerfed. It's very rare that a squad this coordinated is in your lobby, and I think something like that deserves to be a little op. Plus, it's loads of fun.

[@Taurex]

you're joking right? "a little op"? did we even watch the same video? it absolutely demolishes anything that comes at it and there's nothing you can do about it, and it's a transport vehicle LOL

[@Astrothunder_]

@@Taurex Yeah but I promise you that transport helis are not doing this in 9.5/10 matches lol. The game needs to reward coordination, which it did for them, they just also happen to be really good at the game too which is what makes these clips look crazy. In most matches I’ve played transport helis do Jack shit because people spawn in the gunner seats get a kill and hop out.

[@Taurex]

@@Astrothunder_ It's happened several times to me already but it's gonna happen a whole lot more once people realize how insanely overpowered they are. Sure the game should reward coordination but this is way too much. All it takes is 1 coordinated group of friends to completely destroy the game for everyone else on the server. Remember this is supposed to be a transport heli but it absolutely demolishes the actual attack helicopters, jets, nightbirds, tanks, wildcats and infantry. It's just not balanced at all lol

[@Rashed1255]

@@Taurex ur luck must be bad cuz I’ve only encountered it once. I think its fine the way it is, just seeing the 50mm cannon is rare, seeing someone use the repair tool is even rarer, having a team so skilled and coordinated is even more rare that it deserves to be a little more OP. Also transport helicopters were quite good against attack helicopters in BF4 when well coordinated.

[@bbcca9969]

@@Taurex it's not that op as you imagined, just some night bird carrying Indian hackers to parachute next to it, then it will get muted and you can kill it. or some m5 with laser pointer, it will only stand 4 rounds of it, so really easy to get killed by infantry like this

[@kristianasheim5671]

This will never be nerfed. This is what BF is abot. And this is not a requring problem since it requires minimum full squad of players that know what to do. 99.9% of the time the transports choppers get missued as taxi and nothing else. EPIC video.

thanks! yeah that game was fun but this was my favorite of the bunch

[@TheFlux7]

I also encountered a transport heli squad in one game. They killed me multiple times in the helis. However I managed to kill them with the little bird: I took them by surprise (higher) and fired a lot of anti-infantry rockets at the side of the transport heli while being really close. I managed to get one gunner and the repair guy killed. I then could finish it with the minigun. Let me know if this works for you!

[@keestojuusto6072]

I dont think this needs a nerf. You need a squad coordination of 4-6 players to do this. If that same amount of players play well against you, they'll be able to shoot you down.

[@markrayes2973]

yup , along as interference is ran (hacked, soflam , jets and attack or aa) it will be taken down.. but it takes massive teamwork...something missing in a lot of matches

[@darkvalkyrienz8393]

Unreal how strong it is with teamwork. I have faced a squad doing this and its infuriating to fight against, it can take multiple tank shells and just fly away and repair. Really only options are Rao hack/EMP and a bunch of stinger players but good luck pulling that off without VOIP and you die instantly as infantry against it haha nice gameplay Silk, lets hope not to many people start getting into this

[@SilkOCE]

Yeah I have the same feeling about it. There is really nothing you can do except really lame shit like stingers + rao which I just won't be caught doing.

That's awsome bro love it! I'm slowly getting there in the choppers, I love the night bird and I use your tips for flying so helpful mate. Best tip was not to use the 20mm and stick with the mini guns very helpful in 1v1 with other air craft! Love your content bro keep it up! Just wish I could communicate with other players.

[@NaGHardware]

transport heli: what it should be dice calling nightbird "transport" heli: we're not over-confident, just better than everyone else.

[@bfvader]

The Condor is even more ridiculous if there's a semi competent squad in it. It's almost as fast as the SU-57 with full afterburner and the guns reach across 75% of most maps. If the pilot is aware enough to not let you get above him, there's no way to take it down. Myself and another good pilot would unload our 30mm canons on it and hit it with multiple rockets on each pass, but it would repair faster than we could kill it. Meanwhile we took ages to repair if we weren't just immediately melted by the guns or AA rockets from the ground.

[@imsokage]

Once I figured out how to change my heli control settings back to BF4 controls, I’ve been loving the hind!

[@FR33LANCER1]

Was a fun watch some great flying, teamwork and gunning GG 😀

[@maxlindner2274]

They really should add more seats to those. Realistically it’s never useful as a spawning point for the rest of the team, as it should be. The guns and pilot are always full regardless of squad (if you’re a good pilot and prove it) and one guy in your squad is always just repairing. That just one spot left being hogged by a blueberry farming assists. At that point it’s literally just a kill machine and doesn’t serve it’s original purpose of transporting troops.

[@S1n1st3r0n3]

It's just labeled incorrectly. It's a gunship, not a transport.

[@ysfbilenExalt]

Developer: how much firepower should the old transport heli get? DICE: YESs!

Funny vid honestly, those guys seem cool. Question for you, how do you get the choppers to move so fast? I fly them as much as I can and they always feel like they are moving through sand. I am using the infantry controls in my flights.

[@looming_]

They are pretty close to the ground. Seems slower if you're high up.

[@markrayes2973]

throttle and dives...you basically try and take advantage of the momentum you can experiment with it on a private server or on solo to get those close to the ground maneuvers down

[@scentsoftravelmeditation]

The little bird was always over-powered

[@sadsoul1995]

The Intro is me every single time I fly any vehicle I get doubled team every time

[@getfragged7051]

To everyone saying this is too overpowered and needs a nerf- the reason why they were having such a hard time towards the end of the video is because the enemy team used teamwork to either 1) take them out of the sky or 2) prevent them from harassing an entire area of the map. Too add to that, a two man team in the hind/condor is easily taken out, a 6 man team with reapairs is difficult to take out because it’s 6 players working in unison and it SHOULD be that way. If you want to take out a group of 6 enemies working flawlessly together then you have to work together with your teammates and lock spam them out of the air. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Edit: with all that said, VOIP is INTEGRAL to have any sort of half decent team coordination.

[@youturble4278]

There so so OP when you have a full crew like holy shit, but on the other side you have to avoid them when your in pretty much anything other than a jet

[@felixgutierrez993]

Looking/sounding straight like an AC-130's angry baby brother lmao

[@TheTaylor259]

Me and some mates also do some condor/hind gameplay....our highest kill game was 290 (there were AI in enemy team) kills on breakthrough... it is definitely the apex predator of the field. DICE definitely need to dial it down a little bit....after they fix the hit reg of the 50mm...

[@dbronco2032]

This is so interesting. SILK saying this like “you have no chance” “nothing you have do” while he has 100 plus kills in the nightbird using the put of this world mobility and hiding to repair with flares. Like… I was rooting for the HIND, but I love me some SILK. A little infantry payback I guess. 😂

[@No5elfCTRL]

I always fly transports in 2042. Very strong and surprisingly fast. I just bide my time until enough people catch on and I get some gunners. Can take any point by hovering on it and then bug out to the next point. A full heli can change the tide of a game

[@azitiz]

great content once again!

[@SilkOCE]

Appreciate that

[@BUZDRIFT]

Call out overpowered when getting pwnd by a squad or good team! That's not overpowered its just good teamwork! If a single person can beat multiple gunners and craft (good team and player) then it's just shit game balance not overpowered at all!

[@Rashed1255]

1. It’s rare to see people use the transport heli. 2. It’s very rare to find an Osprey with the 50mm cannon, let alone the Hind. 3. Who uses the repair tool? Feels like I’m the only one & heli hit box doesn’t exist for me. 4. Its an extremely rare occurrence, only seen it once. 5. It took 6 players coordinating to do this, atleast 4 of which are skilled. Takes team work to do it, takes teamwork to undo it. The transport heli sucks in general, but in the right hands it could turn the tide. It’s extremely rare for the transport heli to be used to this level and so should not be nerfed, but maybe tweaked in a way to encourage using it more.

[@Ocean141]

i wonder how good it is on breakthrough, alot more AA on objective

[@fred6907]

Even after the heli nerf, it's still insanely unbalanced. If you get even just a semi competent crew, you can completely dominate the entire round. Coupled with the littlebird cheat that everyone and their mother is using these days, it's just a clown game (I'm not gonna provide links, it's already pretty bad). "But just focus on the choppers broooooo". Yeah good luck convincing an entire 64 player team to use rockets. Even if you do manage to take it down, you are gonna lose a lot of flags in the process. By the time you regroup, the helis have already respawned. This match is a great example. The enemy had an entire army of AA on the mountain, yet they couldn't shoot them down. It's still like this, although not THIS extreme.
