DICE polling for Battlefield 4 balance adjustments
DICE is conducting a detailed poll to gauge interest in various balance adjustments for Battlefield 4.
Battlefield 4 continues to be plagued with a number of issues, as developer DICE continues to work on the game. The studio is now taking direct feedback from players with a poll to determine what feature and balance issue they should focus on next.
The suggested adjustments on the Battlefield Blog include added air defense for attack boats, increased damage for the engineer's FGM-148, nerfing the stealth jet's 20mm cannons, various minor adjustments to the fast attack craft cannons, and buffs to the MBT and IFV canister shells.
Each potential change has its own dedicated question for individual results, and so far the canister shells are running away with a staggering 85% of respondents approving the buff idea. DICE also welcomes more suggestions in the comments, so this may not be the last of direct polling that we see out of the studio.

Nerf engineer repairs, and nerf the scout chopper maneuverability.
-
Engineer repair nerf already happened with the latest patch. A single engineer is very good, but not nearly as good as it was before.
Scout maneuverability is fine, as-is. That bird is meant to be lightweight and a paperweight. With the dual speed engineer repair, they were super fast AND nearly impossible to remove from the air. Now that they will definitely be brought down easier, they need to keep their maneuverability. -
The repair tool has a cool down so you can't spam it and the Scout has low armor. I can't tell you how many times my buddy and I have been easily shot down in a Scout while I was repairing.
If anything, the Anit-Ait Tank needs to get nerfed as it's near impossible to get near one while flying and ground infantry can't get close enough to do damage. Engineer rockets don't do much either if the Tank has the protective barrier equipped. -
Scout heli is fine right now after the patch. It's 1 hit kill with rpg and sraw even with 2 engy.

I was playing the other night on Silk Road, and I fired (and hit) 5 stingers in a row It didn't bring it down.

I hit it with every shot, 5 times in a row. The guy didn't even pop flares, just kept buzzing around like it didn't even damage him.

Stop using stingers and learn to SRAW bro. It's a heli and sniper killing machine.

NERF everything. Knives only. DK MODE ENABLED

My suggestion: AK-47s for everyone!!!!
-
How about network adjustments to fix the frustrating gunplay.
-
That would take a miracle.

No mention of attack chopper buffs or better physics for it. I feel like I can't get it to dive anywhere near as fast as I could in BF3.
-
I'd like it if they gave me all the guns.
-
I hate to be that poster but, could they make the game as good as Bad Company 2 or Battlefield 3? Hit detection and general balance just kind of turn me off of playing this for very long.

Repair resources should only regenerate for engineers when they have their feet on the ground, or something like this. Without repairs the LB is still a pain in the ass, but at least somewhat easily downable. Right now a high class pilot + 2 engies is very much the most annoying thing in the game.
