Well, I just finished a massacre upon Axis at RailGun map… Some of my teammates are quite good SMG gunners, 30~40 frags with their Tommygun. And… an expert Allied Field Op, he killed 129 with his airstrike and artillery calling. With decreased energy consumption and the help from command post, he can throw his signal grenade almost continuously.
Since the power of panzerfaust is decreased, the airstrike and artillery effective area shall be shrunk as well, I do think. And maybe the experience gain for artillery / airstrikes shall be decreased.
I’ve changed my g_heavyweaponrestriction to 5, and g_ltchargetime to 60000 on my ET public server, thus abusive airstrikes/artillery is hindered. However, this is not enough anyway.
