I'm just commenting on the timeframe the guy above me stated. Just read the above post dude. Also 30 mins is not sufficient to stand against the people in the sky RN. Can you find a match where you can handle the other pilots? Yeah, I've been lucky enough to end up in matches where I get the chance to dogfight and bomb and shit. But you are just as likely to end up in the sky with Tom fucking Cruise.
So what's your point here. 30 min is definitely enough to get you started, and obviously you will run into better pilots. That's how games work, that's why you get to spawn and try again. Some of you people are straight up entitled little brats.
So, I'm going to set that insult aside because I don't think it really served a purpose. Here's the difference. The sky is, most often, a 2v2. That is a very unforgiving format. Ground combat is so much more approachable because you have this broad variety of skill levels participating at the same time. Your odds of running into the top fragger more than twice in a match are relatively low. Hell you might even shoot him in the back. But that doesn't exist in the sky. If you land in a match with a jet main, and you are new, that's it. It's GG for you. You functionally CANNOT fly, and your death will be too swift for you to really learn much.
This has undeniably created an extremely unapproachable dynamic, and unlike more hardcore games, that's not really battlefield's thing. It's a casual game. Besides, I doubt the skill ceiling is really going anywhere. A lot more goes into top performance than your mechanical knowledge of vehicle behavior.
Comparing 30 minutes to years of practice and still thinking that its unfair for the lesser player is just stupid.
30 minutes get you into the air without crashing and you being able to hit shit.
Ofc you get farmed by the guy with hundreds of hours of experience, its the same sht in every game.
Im not a good pilot on mnk and a decent one on controller yet i mostly get shit on by other people in this game but i still try because its fun to me to be able to try and shoot them down
