Skill? Skill because you are getting hit by marshmallows from the Wildcat? Skill because you flare and regenerate them in 30sec? Skill because you can actually hid behind cover? Skill because you can dodge Liz's clunky missile? Skill because you can dodge a recoilless or RPG that is shooting a straight heading? Skill because you can flare while being hacked? I think skill is being confused with lack of useful counter weapons to the NB. I sure don't see tanks or other ground vehicles going 100-0 or maybe its because they don't have 600 hours in them.

How about me? I need to think about:
2 wildcats
2 tanks, how close i can approach
Brawlers
Latvs/boltes/hoover
Podhawks (harrypotters with stinger)
Constant lockons
Constant lizz spam
Counter air: jets, helos, gunship
Infantry: lazering lmgs, roch, rpg/m5, alot stinger locks (which constantly shoots out btw), hacks, soflam.
And now people here wants option that every infantry would have option to 1v1 and win it.
Like i said, if you would sit in bird and think that you can avoid all and be skilled, nope you are not. I would like to see you in one when enemy team has proper AA play.- UP_Hawxxeye2 years agoLegend

Soflam is overated. We tried it with a friend and unless the pilots got greedy, we might as well have been using stingers for the same effect of repelling but not killing.The designation icons might be bugged though which definitely does not help communicate to the team that you designated something
I do agree that teams as a whole almost never utilize their full advantage in numbers vs the limited vehicles.

I want to see one of those 600 hour Liz unicorns aces people talk about. (I am not talking about edited videos where only success is recorded, nor at hitting blueberries who can barely stay in the air, but pilots like me who will hear/see the thing coming and dodge it)
But I suspect they are as real as the unicorns.The thing that cripples the learning curve of Liz the most is how much of the time you spent as liz is spend waiting for that next missile to be ready (which really throws a wrench at the effort to practice).
I wish there was a custom practice server without a cooldown on the damned thing
