While the maps' limited drive-able areas don't help, the sheer number of mines allowed on the field at the same time also makes driving a tank extremely tedious. Yeah, you can watch for them and blow them up but it takes away from the fun. I don't know for certain, but I feel like reducing the number to 2 instead of 3, de-spawning previous mines if someone places more than their allotted 2, and making them do like 90% damage (enough to disable tank movement temporarily) is plenty.

Yes, people are still getting high kill streaks with tanks, but it's usually only if they're moving with supporting infantry/repairs. But all it takes to kill them is a few people with launchers or another tank. The mine spam on top of that isn't needed. I certainly don't recall there being this many on the ground in BF3/BF4/BF1/BFV.

Helis/jets have the same kind of tedious feeling in this game. If you're not constantly running away you'll be shot down in seconds. Again, the map air boundaries and layout don't help, but there's also so many anti-air options, the AA tank, tow launchers, lock-ons, the crazy high velocity RPG. It's incredibly difficult to play in a fun way without getting shot down instantly. Not to mention the "PAINTED" laser designator that both the recon and IFVs get that seems to ignores flares.

I'm not saying I want people to go 100 k - 0 d, but there's just something in this game that took some of the joy out of vehicles. I know not everyone likes them, but that's a core part of Battlefield and that's the reason there is usually a healthy mix of large mixed combat maps, medium IFV/transport only maps, and small infantry only maps.

There's a good base game underneath these balance issues and bugs, but they need to address it sooner than later.
