it would be cool but there shuld still be a 50/50 chance of getting hit. As in... if the guy who has you locked on has line of sight then the missle shuld still reach its target. However..if the missle follows you past his field of vision the flares shuld be used/ shuld be effective.

Countermeasures (like flares) are being discussed by the Devs as a "post-BR20" ability. I strongly disagree with such a shift being BR20 only, but that's just me.
Not only are there going to be countermeasures, but counter-countermeasures. So, we'll see in however many months it takes to get it all ironed out. |

You would only have a limited amount of course. Maybe 3 per ammo box or so.

Oh I see , thanks for telling me. And yeah I think that's a good idea but using your afterburners to get behind something works just as well. |

I swear those things move right around the trees and hunt you down.

I do love playing my sparrow occasionally though. Not really because I like the suit all that much, but because killing dumb people amuses me. I will never understand what could make any reaver pilot think it's a good idea to hover i place and try to rocket spam an AA max from 150m away /boggle

I don't think they'd make the countermeasures 100% effective, but they'd give a chance for an evasive manuever to actually break the lock. The problem is that aircraft currently have to hug the ground to avoid the enemy, that's of no help to a plane flying at the flight ceiling. Just a small thing to let pilots have a chance to be in the air.
Plus, it'd be a Burster buff, since their munitions can't be jammed. There. A TR MAX buff...ya happy now? |

Read it again. Flares to detonate a locked on missile before impact.
As a pilot though, I have to say I think this would make aircraft overpowered. To avoid missiles, I can usually just hit my burners and drop to the weeds. Bingo. No more lockon. However, if there will be CCMs for the enemy to utilize against me, it might be pretty cool. |
