So it's good overall, but helicopters got the shaft?

Why can't they ever just get it completely right? I realize that is asking a lot, but you would think they'd at least occasionally fix/implement something without fucking up another in the process...

It wasn't just helicopters.

Whenever they change something it throws the balance off and something else becomes the new go-to. Any slight change will affect the other elements of the game by making them either better or worse.

So, these changes keep the game fresh?

If you consider that type of variety "fresh" than yes.

I want new maps, vehicles, and guns to make something fresh. Creating new content as opposed to recycling.

Why not? A lot of the guns that came out were unique and pretty cool!

because they can't even balance the ones they currently have, or make most of them distinctive in any way.

I'd like some more equipment unlocks.

ERYX would be cool. Laser Designation binoculars, flashbang, etc.

I disregard anyone that plays on those servers.

I dislike anyone that plays Metro.

I am neutral to anyone that plays Metro Rush.

lol, listening to people in chat on Tank Superiority. We lose badly, the only two times we held the flag were when I capped it and got killed right away. Their surprised we lose, saying "damn that's hard to retake." They spent the whole round camping out of reach of the flag, not even in a tank.

Liking the start of Tank Superiority on Alborz Mountains. Kind of a semi-controlled free fall race down the mountain.

funny game mode. twinkling of sniper glints in the horizon, camped with their SOFLAMs well out of range.

Ok I think I played it enough to make a proper judgement now. Keep in mind this is all 12v12 Xbox 360 gameplay.

Rush is very biased towards attackers. Without a good jet pilot to deal with the enemy AC-130 and A-10 Thunderbolt the defenders will undoubtfully lose. The only Rush game I've ever won as defenders was when I was in the Frogfoot doing work and I had three buddies on the ground keeping a tank destroyer up defending the M-COMs.

The B M-COM on the last set of the snow map is never accessible. Never seen attackers get past that part.

I normally complain about 12v12 because there really isn't much action when the teams suck. I've seen so much intense action in Armed Kill for some reason and it doesn't make sense to me because the maps are so much larger so engagements should happen less frequently.

Tank destroyers are ridiculous. They seem to take more shots than main battle tanks without disabling and their cannons are a lot stronger. ATVs are awesome and I love Jihading with them. Mobile artillery is a great addition and takes a bit of skill to use.

Death Valley - Not a fan of this map in any game mode.
Armoed Shield - Absolutely beautiful map, great gameplay and fun in every game type.
A-something mountains - Lots of fun on Rush, not so much on conquest because of the lack of players and few engagements.
Bandar Desert - Sucks in all game modes

Bandar is sweet on tank superiority, awesome hiding in the craters from tanks.

Also Alborz mountains is sweet on conquest and tank sup.

Armored shield is sweet for TS.

All my favorite Rush servers tried AK for maybe 6 hours after the game came out and then went back to normal rotation. No way anyone will play it until the AC-130 is fixed.

Downhill motocross with tanks.
One of the tanks starts rolling down on its own too.

Also, I've been spinning out 180 degrees with the tank killers (the US wheeled one at least) several times, because they accelerate so fast with turbo on.
