Issue with the Anti-Air in this game. sadly, So disappointing compared to BF1942
I have a issue with the SAA & MAA units... The SAA = Stationary Anti-Air, has an insane range coverage about 70% of the maps... I cannot even give support to my team while in a bomber. 2-3 people on AA guns literally put air on lock down and the fire rate and damage output of the MAA = Mobile Anti-Air... one long burst from the Mobile Anti-Air and your bombers health just went from 100% to 25% So with that being said when the enemy team has 2-3 people on SAA and 1 or 2 people in MAA, Air support just does not exist on top of that we have to worry about the long range and high damage of Fliegerfaust infantry *( mind you a team can have up to 10+ fliegerfaust )* so as a pilot i have 3 Anti-Air equipment that i have to constantly worry about... All i would like to do after a long days work is just fly and literally cannot do that because of the small air space and so much anti-air, I have to say flying in battlefield has been completely killed off. I have played since Battlefield 1942 alpha and to see what this game has become is just down right pathetic. The way planes drop and how fast is terrible.. Also the Anti-Air i have been telling you about can literally reach the maps Sky limit so planes cannot escape them the only way to escape them is if we nearly stay in our planes spawn the majority of the time and when going to bomb at least one SAA you are taking flak from MAA or other SAA locations and once assault class units see AA shooting at a plane they just pull their fleigerfuast out and kill you before you really get a chance to even drop the bombs because the flieger doing 80 or 90 % damage to your aircraft... it just saddens me because i love flying and all the factors against flying planes is very disheartening... #1 increase the sky limit... i mean its the sky let people fly VERY high for dog fights and that is another thing you cannot have a good dogfight with out taking AA damage... #2 limit the range of SAA and MAA in real life they did not have unlimited range and before you trolls say i am crying just know you know i am right. The only way to escape AA is if you duck down near the ground and take the chance of getting fleigerfausted... or stay near the Uncap because that is what it has come to sadly... I really hope the devs see this message and do something about this catastrophic failure that has taken place in battlefield V....

- Hi @NordicBeserker Few things to mention so I've listed them below.
1 - I've edited your post to remove the all bold text. This is just so it conforms to forum rules.
2 - Expect to catch a lot of flak (pun very much intended) as these discussions usually don't lead to a lot of agreement within the community.
3 - There will be no changes made to BFV at all now. The game no longer receives support like that, just bug fixes.
4 - While I do agree with you in some respects, effectively that all maps with planes should have a decent flight ceiling, I can't honestly say I encounter many issues when dealing with AA. True, I don't fly bombers and only use the fighters, but they actually go down quicker than the bombers do. I've found that by playing "smart", like attacking from out of line of sight and knowing what AA is active, and practice helps massively. Even with MAA similar principles apply - hit and run from angles which they aren't covering. Doesn't always work of course, skill and luck can be big factors still, but using a fighter I'll still average around 30 kills per match usually.
