Devs need to rethink Stinger and IGLA
What the titles says. Obviously those two were made with small maps in mind, like we got with the game's release. But ever since bigger maps came into play - Golmud, Reef and Wake - and ever since Jets came into play, those two have become completely useless. The range of stinger and igla is abysmall, and even when there's a plane in range, good luck shooting it down, since it will just deploy flares and by the time you reload, it will already be faaaar out of range, or just drop more flares.
The most annoying thing is probably when there's a chopper hovering above you, and there's literally nothing you can do about it, because its "Below radar", so you just stand there looking at it like some cattle into new gate and hope the gunner didnt spot you.
The only thing these two weapons are still useful is shooting down UAVs. Everything else forget about it.
Devs will seriously need to reconsider role of this two weapons - either buff them up, change the entire Anti-aricraft warefare dynamic in game, or just remove them. It's obvious that those two guns are useless, when the number one way of shooting down choppers and planes are the aim guided rockets.
