The hawks are overpowered, and a heavy tank lover like myself, the game kind sucks for you. Can't take over a base, the level designs favor air vehicles. Maps are far to giant and open. Far less strategic now, everyone has what they want at all times. Dammit, I want Warhawk 2....... |
I'm not gonna argue for a second that it's not the sequel to Warhawk that fans wanted, because obviously it isn't. So I'm sorry it didn't meet your expectations.
But just about what you said - I don't think Hawks are overpowered at all. In fact, they can be pretty damn weak in multiplayer, 2 rocket hits and they're toast. They have their place in the battlefield, but I wouldn't say it's significantly more dominant than any other vehicle, although that would totally depend on what map you're playing on
In addition (and the thing I don't think a lot of people realise) is that when creating a server, you choose a building loadout. So for example, if you choose the "Ground Pounder" loadout, Hawks are unobtainable on that server, so you can customise it based on how you enjoy playing. 90% of the 'Zones' mode I play use Ground Pounder loadouts, so you never see Hawks in them (and it makes the gameplay in that particular mode a lot enjoyable, too).
