Default Should Airstrikes And Helis Be Optional?!

Ok you see the question give you views, do you think you should be able to turn off helis and strikes server side, maybe even turn up the required kills for em.
And I dont mean in mods I mean in an official patch so pls dont say "you can in this mod"

Yes. I don't know why they didn't allow that option in the first place. It's not like it's something that the game would suck without

I just seen another thread that suggests it is possible lmao so this might be a waste of time, though we could still discuss the idea of changing required kills

It probably is possible.. but only for unranked (mod warfare) servers I'm guessing. We should have the option for ranked servers

I'd certainly prefer playing on servers without them.

Played a few new HC servers lately and frankly airstrikes just ruin the experience on some of them (well, that and the constant 'nade spamming) by constantly getting you as you come out of spawn. I know the counter argument would be that i should get a lot of early kills and get that airstrike myself but frankly I suck too much at the game for that to ever be plausible.

The airstrikes are really annoying plus add the fact that I get a big red patch on the lagometer when they fly by really makes me hate them.

its possible if you mod the server.

I think the helis needs redone in the game or removed IMO.

They get more kills for people then what the person could do having a gun.

I went into some games before where a Heli would probably account for 40% of my kills, its ridiculous.

I don't think helicopters or air strikes should be taken out completely, but I do think they should be limited, I came out of a server last night, the only time I have ever came out of a game before it actually finished, purely and simply, because ,I just couldn't get playing, from the minute I joined the game, I was being killed by helicopters and air strikes, on the spawning areas, and then if you managed to escape that, you where being picked off by the snipers( Ive nothing against snipers, they are all part of the game).
However, another thing that I don't understand, is why no points are awarded for shooting down a helicopter, I try to be a team player, and because of my age , my reactions are a bit slower than most of the younger players, and my eyes are not quite as good, so, I use the RPD, helps me even up my chances, therefore, if we are attacked by a helicopter, I will go forward, to try shooting it down, which I do most of the time, but although I'm saving my team mates, it does lead to me being killed more than if I just hid, and let it kill my team mates, we get points for shooting the opposition, so why not for shooting down a helicopter ?.

Yes, I think they should be taken out. I hate air support in this game to be honest. I use it because I have it, but I wouldn't miss it if it was taken out. I think air support and helicopters ruin the game play. I get so mad when killed by helicopters, such cheap kills.
