- Battlefield 2042's Littlebird chopper is officially classed as a "transport" but with some practice - and some teamwork - this thing harvests infantry and can really help lock down a point! Here are some of my favorite highlights from the beta as I got some practice in with these bad boys. Also, shout out to Chris the Bot and our selection of Davids.

"There's a bot on our squad."
"Excuse me!?!?! I have a name!" 😂
I love fall! The apple cider is fresh and the harvest is ready.
same
I can already smell fresh and juicy content here :)
Lol
Mmm cider
Bust out the controller you will have way better control.
I hated this thing on last gen consoles. there was one guy tearing everyone a new one and spawn killing our tanks in the spawn. I will admit i envy anyone who used these with little trouble. the Helicopters look so much fun
Bf 3 I spent a lot of time practicing in the coop mission with the apache. It also helps to change you heli controls for the sticks. Make it so that the tilt left or right is one stick and the pitch is another stick
And people complain and send hate messages of camping with AA
My favorite thing was dropping an APC or Scout on the tower and clearing the skies.
I did a triple take the first time I saw that haha
I was so confused when I started getting shot with a mini gun from the tower for the first time
There were way too many air vehicles and not enough ground vehicles in the beta. That being said the choppers are so fun I definitely missed them.
I think the main problem was vehicle respawn was instant - the only timer was for individual players who had just died in a vehicle
Don't sleep on the transports, they're actually really, really good gunships, especially the russian one, if you have people crewing the three gun seats. I had some randos stick with me in one and we were utterly dominating the ground with it. Unlike previous games the transports have a gunner seat with an explosive autocannon to work with so the skill floor for making them killing machines is a lot lower for randos.
But the pilot can't do anything, but position himself and watch, as the passengers harvest all the kills? This is really bad game design IMO, this was already a bad feature in Battlefield 3 and 4 but here it's worse as both the Osprey and the Hind are such beautiful and cool vehicles with a lot of fire power.
@@solidzack I do agree, but this is ultimately a transport at the end of the day. Personally, rather than a focus on kills, I'd like to see a bigger point incentive for people spawning and ejecting out of transports, especially if they do it near or within the bounds of an objective. The maps are massive now and transports are going to be more important than ever with 64 people on each team. I think it's ability to kill isn't a big deal, personally, it's more of an awkwardly nice cherry on top. The bigger crime is that it's better at it's job than the ACTUAL gunship and it's terrible as all hell rockets and cannon.
@@shadow7988 even then, where's the fun in just flying from objective to objective? The little bird can already do this and more. I'm pretty sure this is the reason people will misuse them as taxis, points alone aren't enough to motivate peoole to fly this seriously and help out gunners to shoot targets. One fix would be to grant them the ability to stay in place when switching to gunner mode so you can switch to tge gunner seat yourself when it isn't occupied already, although the guns would need to get a range nerf in that case to prevent sky camping. But this should only be allowed for the transports, NOT for the attack helicopters as that would make things busted rather fast
@@solidzack I'd argue the issue isn't that people can't kill with it, it's that people can't farm and progress their levels in it so it's literally a waste of time. Points aren't just numbers on the screen, after all, they have a meta effect on your long term gameplay. If you give people some sort of incentive other than generic dopamine from kills it will at least get people to consider using transports for something other than flinging a single soldier across the map and leaving everyone else behind. The maps in 2042 are going to be bigger than any before so transports HAVE to have some sort of incentive or the game isn't going to work. Personally, I'd argue they need their own tech tree/unlocks.
@@shadow7988 i mean yeah, if the game instructed me to transport squads I'd be down. Imagine a squad leader being able to order a transport chopper to their location and then the nearest transport pilot gets the order to land, pick the entire squad up and fly to a certain area. If I were tasked by the game to land and pick up teammates I'd totally be down for it. It could also transport supplies and health so it acts similar to the cavalry from Battlefield 1.
Other than that I'd need more features as the pilot other than hovering around aimlessly and ejecting flares from time to time.
I love the little bird. Went 30/0 one game. It is such a mobile small vehicle so dodging AA couldn't be easier. But the mini guns are so satisfying to land.
The nightbird is like a mosquite with a glock, extremely hard to hit and can easily tear you a new asshole, while mowing 2 other squads off this plane of existence
I think they need the stingers to be a sure 2 hit kill bc they are so easy to avoid
U want a true infantry harvester, the condor is amazing me and my mates love playing in it, I fly us around and I’ve got a mate on each turret racking up kills and absolutely destroying objectives😂
I'm glad it has rockets that don't required lock ons. Cause going up against Apaches in bf4 was almost impossible.
I found that strafing at high speed left or right seemed to tighten the mini gun spread.
You love to see it!
You are a beast. Pretty sure I saw you flying inside under that rocket during the open beta. Sadly never got to try the air vehicles. Will be interesting to see what this game looks like in about a year, notably with customized servers. For now, I much prefer other massive FPS like Planetside 2, Squad, Hell Let Loose, etc.
I've never hit the bell before but I didn't know this video existed, youtube dropping the ball for me. Keep up the great work Dave 🙌
Im hoping something happens to help with AA. The infantry SAMs are way too underpowered and the aircraft chaff recharges too quickly.
Underpowered?! What? No.
@@ligaar0849 how many infantry SAMs does it take to take out a little bird? How long does it take to reload and lock on? How short is the chaff recharge? Its not balanced. Other ground based SAMs like more anti-air vehicles and stationary weapons would help alot.
You can lock instantly back on after chaff, along with the fact you don't actually lock onto the chaff after they pop it
@@thelastbill1 2 stingers to shot down a little bird.
The same ttk as battlefield 4, after flares have been deployed you can instantly lock on again, the cooldown is similar to other titles, the little bird machine gun is less accurate and deals way less damage than in previous titles.
Now where are the broken helis? Because they nerfed the crap out of them.

6:00 wow 1 hp
This is a great example of why you should never give up and abandon your vehicle!
The Littlebird is my favorite :D
You are a Bad Bad Man lol. Laughed so hard watching your video's I created a new account and started to reinstall all my BF games.
Players that are good at mini copters make me just go sniping mode and pray they don't see me
I low-key wish the beta wasn't over cause I had a lot of fun in this thing
5:50 Ranger Stress 99%
Any thoughts on implementing windshield wipers on the nightbird? I think the other choppers have them but I don't think they're usable. This could be considerably beneficial throughout the rain and make them a slow wipe so it's not overpowered
Can you give a lesson on how to fly in the game!!
Is it just me or do all the heli guns seem weak? Shouldnt have to beam someone with 50 rounds out a minigun for a kill
I real life you would have been burnt to a crisp being in that exhaust tunnel lol. Nice job on the video though!
Nice game play
How u can pilote this thing?
I never once got killed by a vehicle in the beta. They are all weak af. AA missile spam ftw.
Yeah I felt the same, all the vehicles were an absolute dog shit joke and a total non-threat unless you just sat there in the open waiting for death. The fact that anyone, regardless of class, can carry AT and AA on them now makes it even worse. Only remotely useful vehicles were the little bird and transport helis because of their sheer firepower, and even then, the little bird needs absolute joker-tier amounts of rockets or minigun bullets just to score individual kills, and it's borderline useless against any vehicle other than other helicopters.
What the6 should have been like in 4
Do you play a console game?
This looks amazing but when you are the target uggh
this will get nerf for sure, and they should put in the attack aircraft category, imagine 2 apaches and 3 littlebirds at the same time and team... xD
I hope not, 2042's aircraft are already a complete joke, most of them are downright harmless unless you just stand there and take it or are all bunched up together on a point. Especially when anyone, regardless of class, can walk around with AA on their back that kills in two hits.
With the 64 vs 64 it does make sense

Best advert for not buying the game ... Fun for the pilots but balance is totally off. Don’t @ me with the “but if a squad works together” nonsense ... Address the imbalance ...
