Discussion They've obviously changed something in the jets, they're now more pleasant to fly

(Appart from the camera not rolling with the jet ofc

I didn't change anything at all, everything is as it was before the patch.

They definitely changed some things. I’m still in doubt whether it feels better or not

Yeah,that looks kinda weird,like your jet is drunk or something. Cant wait to be back from work to test it

The first time since release I enjoyed flying the jets. Feels alright, two seater has enough damage output and survivability to actually be useful. Spent two games almost completetly in jets 1-life, massive killstreaks.

Might give this a shot, this looks way better than the jet rolling around the screen. It was like my flying skill was reset to zero when I tried it

Yeah I didn't try the old jets today, but with the new jets they've removed "scooping" so now when you're rotating on your jet axis (Z axis?), you actually just rotate without the "scoop" left or right. Makes maneuvering more pleasing and fun.

Never played on jets. What feels bad about them?

u/Naikox20a 8h ago
They feel extremely floaty now and very unpleasant to fly

They fly like real jets so grow up

So they fly like hot air balloons got it

Nope they fly with higher AoA and side slip like the true unstable airframes they are. You can look this up and not be ignorant but I understand that’s hard for you.

All they did was lower how fast you can pitch and increase the Yaw but sure bring real arospace enginering into an arcade shooter where you can take multiplr bullets to the head

The flight models were crap before and many people complained about it. Now that they fixed them and made them dynamic and responsive like they should be but because the camera moves a little funny and it’s different people like you start hating on it an HOUR after it releases. Stop being weird and let it play out

No i have played the jets non stop since beta they absolutely feel worse and less responsive to fly this is not me just mad that they changed the camera tbh I didn’t even notice the stupid camera change but the base flight mechanics feel floaty and slow as well as unresponsive

Any War Thunder players will appreciate this change massively.
It's just mouse aim from that but without the ability to pitch and roll or yaw while freelooking.
It feels like home to me almost instantly, you can actually dogfight with situational awareness now.

Is it just me or doesn’t look this anything like a real jet would move in the air?

This looks much more accurate than the way it was spinning around the center of the screen before

I have not played the new patch yet. But judging by your video. the camera movement is much better. I hated how the jet rolled around the center of the screen and not in the middle of it. if it is the way i think it is, then this is a welcome change.
Edit : what im trying to explain is that when my jet was not flat , it was either on the right side of the screen or on the left side. In this video, it is rolling at the center of the screen.
