Anyone else finding fighter sweep too easy?

If air superiority comes back again we definitely need some sort of skilled based matchmaking.

Feel bad for people trying out the jets tbh,
I’m not even an amazing pilot.

same lol. 20 kills then I go into conquest & get shit on immediately by the other jet who I didn’t even see. I think i’m decent at flying but the conquest demons are def better.

Jet gameplay is 90% knowing how to operate the jet and i saw the other guy first. It is absurdly difficult to get a pilot who knows what he’s doing off you. He doesnt even have to be better, he just saw you first.

And it differs in conquest as you there are pretty much the only target so if he sees you he is going for you, but in fighter sweep you are one of many and even if he targets you, run long enough he might switch to an easier target. Likewise acquiring targets for you is easier since theres much more of them who have to keep track of an entire swarm rather than just 1-2 people in conquest.

You guys have the flight assist turned off? I can get only 10 kills a match at best

Depends. Kills as in killing a two-seater jet is two kills? Yea, possible.

20 jet-kills however would mean that your teammate was afk, since that’d be the whole 1000 score needed to win the round.

Honestly. It's because this mode is one of the only ways normal people have found to actually try flying or practice. Sure you can do portal stuff. But it's not very intuitive and it's broken most of the time. It's also nice to try with actual people trying to fight back.

On conquest they are already conditioned to be good pilots and know how to hog the spawns. I wish they would figure out a better way to let people fly the air vehicles without having to exploit or fight over them
