Fighter planes need aiming reticle

On the new pacific maps the attackers have 4 floating tanks and 2 additional tanks. If they keep distance the defending infantry has no chance of taking them all out.

It would balance out the game more if the fighter planes had the aiming reticle so they could engage armor with more success.

With the current meta where flying low is risky (Fliegerfaust) and aiming is very hard with bombs it is not even worth risking giving ground support to infantry by bombing enemy tanks.

The aiming reticle could change that. Please add it.

  • I personally find aiming with the crosshair dot to be fine and think it's largely a matter of practice. Possibly because I got used to it with the Spitfire VA a while back.

    Same, you can use the 'dot' as a guide; making it fairly predictable where they land.

    Would be nice if we'll get the 2 seater 'Corsair Dauntless' & 'Aichi D3A Val' ingame though.

  • I have 100 hours in BF2 flying without an aiming reticle. I'm not saying it's impossible to learn but very-very hard to be on target most of the time.

  • @GUTENTAAAAG The gliding bomb just takes practice, same as it took practice to learn the bombs on the VA or G2. No offence to Niccaman but he's not that great of a pilot, sure he's a decent youtuber that makes entertaining content from time to time but I've seen him dogfight and I honestly cringe a lot at how he stall spams and openly states he believes smoke to be the most effective form of defense.

    Usually he has high scores in games with bombers as either people leave him alone or he has backup keeping fighters off his six. I would very much like to see him go up in a dogfight against any one of the pilots in the Phoenix Aerial League and have made that offer to him multiple times but to no avail
  • But there has plane carry rockets . If 4 rockets hit the armored those will deal 75 damage at less , so I think is possible to take out armored in a single run with 8 rockets .
