@S3SSioN_SoL I'm writing this based on your other replies such as
" You want to fly a balanced aircraft? Fly the attack chopper. You want to go on a 50 killstreak? Fly the nightbird."
"It weird how Nightbird mains believe it takes hundreds of hours to fly an overpowered vehicle."
"That right there sums up your argument. You seem to believe it takes skill to shred enemy Jets in less than 2 seconds? Or melt enemy armor with ease, with no regard for danger from lock-ons or enemy TGM's because the crazy maneuverability allows you to dodge all of that with ease. Flares on cool down? Just fly low! Below radar offers unparalleled protection which as a result of the Nightbird's agility, it can easily take advantage of, guaranteeing its survival."
You're the one here talking about Nightbird as if it's some kind of unstoppable God mode machine that ANYONE can use at any time. So please, prove it.
But now you're saying that " If one player is getting 60 kills out of the rest, then they are an outlier, someone who has probably dedicated most of their time playing to flying said aircraft"
But before that you were chastising @Man_iLoveFishing" for dedicating him time to Nightbird and saying that it "ruins your time".
So do we actually deserve to go on high killstreaks if we dedicate hundreds of hours or not? Or you still believe anyone can jump in and go on a 40+ streak just like that?

@UP_LordPlumber I never once said "ruins my time", I believe you are misquoting me, when someone else said "fun I deserve". I might be wrong here but I don't quite care enough to scrutinize every post I've typed when you fail to acknowledge the existence of "dodges missiles bug".
And yes, I do believe it is an unstoppable God mode machine in the hands of a skilled pilot who flies no other aircraft like it. That is a nice way of putting it.
I honestly went back and read what I wrote and I must say, I'm not too sure where you got the idea that I was saying their skill must be punished.
That is quite a weird question to ask, to be honest, lets apply the same logic to other parts of the game, if you take a Pro and throw them into a infantry only server, you'd expect them to do rather well right. Because it's a scenario where everyone is on the same footing and the Pro is undeniably skilled to know every trick in the book. Now, if you take the same scenario but give the enemies a shield that blocks every 2nd or 3rd bullet, it would probably become quite annoying for the Pro. The reality of the Nightbird is the complete opposite where as, the Pro pilot blocks every 2nd missile without needing flares by virtue of a bug.
I hope my logic is apparent, I honestly can't really explain any better without asking that you search up the old threads where someone generously posted videos depicting the many issues they encountered with the Nightbird.
You seem to have a fixation that I can't go on killstreaks with the Nightbird for some reason? There's no way I can prove this to you because I don't record entire lengths of my gameplay, I'm sure there's plenty of YouTube videos where Pro pilots can depict to you what 40+ killstreak looks like. I fail to see the relevance to be honest as most of my feedback is in reference to the firepower between all aircraft, holistically.
