Jets Broken DICE Broke it

Jets, in this currently broken game should have a few changes made to them IMO.

1: Set MAX throttle speed 

What's the point in constantly accelerating all the way to full speed when using default throttle. Isn't the Afterburner/Boost supposed to take you there.

When you accelerate and you're near to full speed and then you use the Afterburner/Boost to get away from the enemy, you're only given a very small timeframe for Afterburner.

Currently it makes manuvers completely tactless.

2: Cockpit freelook

Why does this not work properly. Why isn't there a keybind so you can Hold and Freelook with the mouse?

3: Limited to only Flares for countermeasure

Where's the ECM from BF3 & 4? Surely planes in the future will have better and alternative countermeasures than decades old FLARES

4: Limited manuverability when Rear cam look

Pilots looking in their rear mirrors IRL can still move their joystick. Why can't this be implemented in the game? Have you lost the plot?

5: Rocket Pods

If a Bolte can have rocket pods (completely useless IMO as you're limited to left and right movement), whey can't a Jet have Rocket Pods?

DICE - You've rushed this game for release without proper testing - you've even had the beta period to get your fixes done. You now face a huge backlash from the community and many negative reviews. You should fix this game ASAP to what it really should be.

P.S: Give us all chat, full scoreboard and lockable squads

    @AerialDominance Bro it's more than obvious that the developers don't give a d4mn about the horrendous flying mechanics of the jets, instead we are getting clown skins and constant nerfs to the choppers that nobody asked.
    Finally they fixed the flares but what about the spread of the main cannon? The air radar that is absolute garbage? The disgusting maneuverability in general?
    This game is dead for me unless they fix those issues.
  • Nobody in DICE will show and collect any feedback about jet. They don't even care about it. Go search how many feedback about jet here and never got response. Sad.

    Nothing ever gets a response from DICE devs in these forums. This is a one way street. Maybe they are reading, and quietly collecting feedback, but we don't have a way to know about it. If you want a response, you have to engage directly with them on Twitter it seems.

  • @1i1il1 It will just get worse and worse if they don't change things up. Dice need to listen.
  • @moons0 The pitch up/down rates are completely reversed as well. Not sure if you’re tried it yet, but you’ll actually complete a horizontal loop significantly faster by rolling and pitching down toward a bandit, vs rolling and pitching up toward it. In other words, in 2042, not only does out of control climate change cause nonsensical weather phenomenon, it also apparently completely reverses the laws of physics.

    Sigh... More borken nonsense... I'm almost at a point where it's worth uninstalling soon. Jets should be the same from like BF3/BF4

  • @moons0 They don't care about jets bro, it's useless to post here no matter how many upvotes you get...

    @SkyL4Ncer21 Dont understand all the complaints about jets they have the biggest advantage on the map.. They are almost impossible to take out with AA. They should limit the amount of flares on jets. AA is pretty much useless on them. Get a lock and all they do is run out of range until flares reset.
