Actualy the helis are now what they were supposed to be - transport choppers. I believe you're complaining because of the blackhawk nerfing since the other two transport choppers haven't been changed. Maybe the attack choppers have too little hitpoints now, but that can be debated.
So for quick insertions behind enemy lines they are still just as good as they should be. If you have a squad of friends with you on TS you can get a lot of points by capping flags in the back and generaly cause havoc by flying high and dropping people in the flagzone. True, you can't kill infantry by the dozen and you can't cap a flag in 3 secs as you could before but hey, you'll adapt.
My main gripe with the 203 wasn't it's splash damage or range - hell anyone who killed my across the square with one shot was skilled enough and I admired it. However when someone killed me with it from 1 meter away and went away unscathed when we should both be dead was bad, and this is what was fixed. You can still kill someone from across the square just as easily as you could before if you're skilled enough, but you can no longer use it as a close quarters weapon, which is what noobies did.
True, the latest patch introduced bugs of it's own, particularly with the PKM and RPT support guns (the SAW isn't as good as these 2) and their accuracy.
