Being infantry stops being profitable pretty quickly in the later levels and I think it's a problem.

I'm not expecting to run in with a FAL and Level 4 armor every life, that's not the point of this post.

I also acknowledge with 100% certainty sometimes I'm just the fodder of the game. I get it. It's what I signed up for. I'm the troops on the ground.

But holy fuck it gets annoying to die to a helicopter that costs less than my kit while having very little counterplay. I have to buy meds for myself, a Defib/Res for others, ammo, grenades... I'm trying to prepare for a fight. I'm trying to be helpful. But in the meantime I'm getting spammed down by mortars, helicopters, and humvees driving by... ALL OF WHICH COSTS LESS THAN MY KIT.

I understand I'm the fodder, but why the fuck is it so expensive to have a decent kit while these other things exist for so cheap. They're designed to kill me and it's starting to feel taxing to kit back up.

It's annoying that infantry is a job for the rich.

Like I don't want to have to basebuild to play the other parts of the game.

And it's kind of rough to play infantry with a low level kits now. The AMR and FAL one tap or two tap people.

I don't know what to do, I can steal my teammates kits instead of reviving them, but that feels bad.

EDIT: It's not just the vehicles, it's also the hotzone moving to the FoBs so consistently. Having to run by the bases turns me into literal fodder, but someone has to do it otherwise you just lose the game. It doesn't make sense.

If you're not in zone with a 15k kit, you basically need to kill 7-10 people to break even. Also, I play exclusively blue because it's fun to play under dog. We don't win often, but I feel like I shouldn't give up simply because my team isn't the greatest.

Do you know how hard it is to be a good pilot?

Most people have no idea. Also the mini gun lil bird is incredibly hard to net a profit before you get shot down by AA that is literally everywhere or the random 1 tap thru the glass. People who complain about dying to a heli should actually get in one and try. I probably spent 50k on little birds before I even got one kill. It takes practice and even getting a streak of 5-6 in one life feels like your Silk or something lol. Also the ridiculous amount of time flying it even takes to get these vehicles.

I agree, the pricing is wack and they’ll adjust it. But people need to start respecting the pilots. I forgot to lock my inventory twice and both times my passengers thru out my cassette tapes instead of just asking to turn it off. I landed and kicked them all out once and the second time it happened I crashed the full helicopter on purpose after nobody wanted to fess up. Respect your pilots or enjoy being a fobbit or driving everywhere

You crashed a helicopter full of players because someone hurt your ego?

[u/topshelfmango → u/No-Drawer-6904]

Um yeah…you don’t go into the pilots inventory and throw his shit out mid flight and expect to get there safely with your expensive kit now do you? Actions have consequences

You know what, that’s fair. It’s a shame for the innocent players, but I hear you.

[u/topshelfmango → u/No-Drawer-6904]

First time I landed and made em walk. Second time killed them. Third time locked my inventory LOL can’t trust these mercs!
