Jet are ultimately broken.

The spread of the main vulcan gun is just too much. Jets have no use in countering helicopters anymore.

Damage on ground units is also way too low or maybe connected to the massive spread.

    @SkyL4Ncer21 Yep, I know. I just want to know if the CM here will collect feedback or not. Reddit or twitter also no Dev response anything about jet.
  • @Misu_s1eep We have another battlefield V flying mechanics fiasco unfortunately, I still remember that bombers could out turn a fighter plane and the air to ground weapons were hitmarker machines just like today's 25 and 30mm cannon of the jets...

    If you shoot the small buildings  (specially in the Hourglass map), you can see the massive destruction caused by then 30 mm cannon ... but if you shoot infantry, even landing 3 or 4 of the 30 mm bullets does nothing.

    DICE does not want Jets going around killing infantry, otherwise it will be a repeat of BF V farming with rockets... which I am OK with. But if that's the case, why in the world they give Stingers to every single enemy player. The Jets pose no threat to infantry, and infantry is nearly the biggest threat against Jets.  Only two stingers, Jet is gone. I understand that infantry needs to be able to counter helicopters, so those stringers are really meant for that.

    The Jets should carry 2 flares, that way they cannot be easily be killed by infantry... and it would also make the air-to-air battles more interesting as you won't be able to kill other jets just with seekers, and instead use the cannon for dogfights

    @UP_Hawxxeye How about the BF-109 G6 higher flight ceiling that gives an unfair advantage over the spitfire and the P-51?

    What about the fact that the Corsair machine guns are garbage compared to the zero?

    What about the fact that the AAs have an insane range and can sniper across the entire hamada map? ._.

    EVERY SINGLE GODD4MN TIME THEY MANAGE TO SCREW THE FLYING MECHANICS AND BALANCE.

    Bump - Jets are fully broken and it needs fixing and addressing 

  • Hit reg on PS5 is nonexistent, you just have to run AA missiles 

    From the little air time I've had

    @SkyL4Ncer21 I know right?
    I cannot wrap myself around this.
    I can understand a company being greedy, but creating something they cannot understand, is so weird
  • @Rambobang Damage is fine my a$$, the helicopters in general specially the super hinds and ospreys can tank the 25mm guns they are bullet sponges.
    And the spread makes this problem even worse than already is.
  • @Max_Tilt_30In addition to what you listed, the pitch up/down rates are completely reversed. You actually complete vertical and horizontal loops significantly faster by using pitch down, rather than pitch up. Pitch down turning is so superior to using pitch up (you know the correct way of flying), in terms of loop completion time and over all maneuverability that a few dedicated jet pilots I know, have resorted to flying upside down. Smh
