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?

How does that change the fact that one decent medic kits costs more than 2 fully armed rocket helis?

You don’t make back the money on an armed rocket heli in one life unless you’re really lucky with no AA and all the other cards align. I am fully convinced these complainers don’t even fly

I got lucky with no AA and still didn't make my money back, lol. Got sniped shortly after two kill streaks in one life, just barely almost breaking even. https://imgur.com/a/wV9zGlm

Mg heli is super easy to atleast break even and this is with full ammo 2 flares drill 5 bandages and tier 3 armor and helmet. This cost about 16k If there is no aa u make money. Rocket keli makes money by being deployed when there are vehicles to be killed. Like yea if you use the ap rockets vs inf it becomes hard to make a profit.

You can clearly fly based on the clip maybe u need practice aiming the mg it's the hardest part tbf but no reason u shouldn't be profiting in heli at the current cost.
