Revert the New Jet Mechanics or Add a Toggle to Disable Them

Hello,

I can't be the only one incredibly disappointed with what has been done to the jets. It feels like we've gone from a AAA war game with an immersive flight system to a cheap, overly arcade-style flight experience. The jets feel slower, less responsive, and much less satisfying to fly.

Here are the main issues right now:

  • The new off-center third-person camera movement is terrible and genuinely nauseating, especially when rolling and yawing.
  • We've completely lost the sense of speed. The jets no longer feel right mechanically, and the overall flight experience feels much less immersive.
  • If these changes only affected the two new jets, it might be tolerable. But every existing jet has been affected by these new mechanics.

I'm far from the only one saying this. Top pilots and the broader community are actively complaining about these changes. See Silk's feedback here:

The Reddit community is also raising the exact same concerns.

DICE, please revert these changes, or at the very least give us an option/toggle in the settings to switch back to the old flight model and camera mechanics.

Please don't force these new mechanics onto every jet. Give players the choice to use the new system or keep the original flight experience.

  • Completely agree. I posted my detailed feedback as well. The pre-1.4.2.0 manual flight model should be restored.

    I know about the assist toggle, but that's not what I'm talking about. I have the jet control assist turned OFF. My issue is with the core flight physics, the general flight feeling, the inertia, and the third-person camera movements, which have drastically changed

  • 这个新第三人称纯搞笑来的,本来没后视镜就够了,这下连正前方都看不清了,怕不是nfs制作组弄的漂移镜头🤣

    I don’t play much jets, but they wrote they have added jet control assist (like helicopters already have it) and there is a toggle in the menu
