Paratroopers seem to be the aces of all and also seem to have barely any flaws. They are equipped with anything you choose from the supply box and they can also drop everywhere.
Here are some things that could balance them:
When the plane is in critical, paratroopers will drop out sooner than they would. (If dropped outside the battlefield, then they will spawn like any other ejecting pilots, without supply box.)
Making the flight of the aircraft fairly longer, up to 20 seconds flight > That way enemy could control the drops with AA guns… I also love watching the scenery before jump.
They should just make the paratrooper plane rotate the map. Have two or three up at a time. Attacker planes can shoot them, if all planes are down, there can be a reinforcement timer until paras can be used. This can allow more defensive and offensive objectives for attacker pilots on both sides.
First of all, please change your avatar a lot because I almost broke my computer screen
Okay, now on a serious tone. From what you marked as a problems, I can argue.
1.- Paras is vulnerable enough when landing.
2.- After landing in a hot spot, you still need to be able to pick up new equipment quickly, sometimes you don’t even have time to do that.
3.- Para squad queue time is the same as other squads, which means that you still have to wait until you can land with them again. Nothing faster here.
4.- You can still land only in the active combat area, it is impossible to do it behind enemy lines. So on this point alone, I would say that Paras just loses some of its functionality.
So for now, generally speaking, from what I’ve been testing Paras, they are the same squad, only able to land faster, closer to the capture ponit. That’s it. After landing, you still need to be able to arm yourself quickly, and try not to die too quickly. So I think that Paras has enough aspects to maintain its main goal - to be on the point quickly, without hurting them even more.
Yeah you can spawn anywhere lmao, how about stop making bullshit when their spawn limitation is huge and cant even flank rallys . greyzone for paras is the same as any normal soldiers
most of the time u get killed by zones, you cant even deal with grey zone camping tanks nor ppl build rally new points, cuz you cant even reach them, and instant drop when you drop on combat zones, most of ur squads will be dead
Ok, just a proposition but I think a message for the enemy team like “Paratrooper in coming” could be more than enough to make it a little more balanced.
A little like what already is in the game for bomb run.
Because right now the most raging thing is just behind shot in the back because you didn’t paid attention to the air 1min ago.
