Buffing AA was unnecessary...

I like flying in Battlefield but the recent change was so unnecessary regarding buffing AA vs fighters.
Fighters did not have a lot of armor in the first place, now people just keep sniping you with AA across the map. What the hell really.

I also don't understand why fighters had to be nerfed since they can give protection from enemy bombers and do limited damage air-to-ground.
This is change just buffed the bomber dominance vs ground.

Bad choice. Revert it in the last patch please.

    Lol thanks, it's a weird feeling.

    Yeah the turning radius of most planes have been my downfall in BFV and it gets even worse when the AA clip your wings.

    I've found success by flying along the east/west ends of the map, dipping into the out of bounds area for as long as I can to remain (relatively) undetected; much easier for me to just kamakaze while hoping foe the best)

  • It's much easier when you have wingmates you can coordinate with but letting other pilots run in 1st will make them the priority (unless you have an AA gunner hellbent on just wanting to take you out). If the AAs are tunnel visioned with another plane, it gives you the opportunity to come in from another angle to strafe them or on the Pacific, don't forget your missiles go just as far if not further, difference is you can duck and weave around the flak at range, they're going to be a sitting duck to your missiles
