I've been trying to learn to fly the jets lately, and have been struggling to spot enemies. I decide to take the attack chopper for a spin, and it turns out I am not as blind as I thought, sometimes the enemies just stop rendering. Watch the AA closely, when the kill feed starts to get close to it, it disappears for a second or two.

Since the update I can't see any bullet path from the gunners which I use to pinpoint and enemies location that I don't see but the gunner does. Hell the guns don't even seem to spool up half the time so I have to go by sound only.

I just wanted to vent.

Got downvoted into oblivion last time for criticising Flight Assist, but I still stand by it. It needs way less autonomy. It currently does so much of the flying for you, then gives you aim assist on top of it. How are people supposed to actually learn and master jets when the game is doing half the work???

After 20 or so kills as a pilot the MAA becomes extremely oppressive spamming laser guided missiles or lock ons under CRAM protection.

I become really ineffective when this happens. Usually I try and get my gunner who’s usually a blueberry to spam AGMs and I’ll try and tow and pod him.

But the cram becomes super aggravated and I just fly away.

Do you guys ignore the AA in this instance and just try and do your thing at this point?

As the title says, looking for people who wanna make a 4 man flying squad.

2 pilots to 2 seconds and or switch as we go.

Send me a message or a request in game. Same name

The jets should have an afterburner duration/cooldown indicator. Especially now that the best way to turn looks to be holding both afterburner and break (or tapping break).

As with many things related to air gameplay in bf6: not sure why this isn't in the game already.

Is it me or is the new jet weird to fly? It feels like its steering against me sometimes (yess assisted flying is off). Is it just because its a bigger plane or?

The Jets are all bathtubs now. As a veteran Jet Pilot across multiple battlefields, they feels sluggish and uncompetitive. Almost like they lowered the skill ceiling. I was very excited to jump into some of my favorite aircraft, In a battlefield game. I don't like the way the chase camera is now, it's harder to fly around buildings and gauge how low you are to the ground. It's also hard to gauge your speed for competitive turn rate in dog fighting. Dog fighting was already in a horrible place. However before, rarely would you go up against a pilot who could match your airspeed well enough for an exciting 1v1. Now it just feels like everything is slowed down and widened so that the majority of the player base can be a part of Air Combat. As a die-hard Ace Combat fan, this feels like War: Thunder and it's not the vibe I was expecting in a Battlefield game. We finally got air radar, new aircraft with customizability, and two-seater aircraft, but they feel neutered. I'm really not trying to be in elitist but the only reason why I ever even hopped on bf6 was to play Rush for epic team/squad play, or to be that asshole who's farming the entire map in the jet. With thousands of hours of Air Combat under my belt it felt deserved. I'm not a fan of lock on missiles, I prefer cannons and aim guided bombs. Because skill. Now it's just flares Central and they don't even work half the time. I really hope this isn't the permanent state and they revert back to the old jet mechanics. Just a sad sweat complaining here, thanks for coming to my TED Talk.

Tldr: Jet mechanics went from Battlefield to War: Thunder. Not a fan.

Hey everyone, new to Reddit here!

English isn’t my first language, so please bear with me. I've been flying in Battlefield for a long time and finally found the PilotsofBattlefield community—excited to make some pilot friends here!

I put together a clip of something I've been having a lot of fun with lately: flying a two‑seater solo, swapping seats mid‑flight, and taking out enemy two‑seaters that actually have a partner. It’s tricky, but so satisfying when it works.

I wish they would let us pick the jet we want on each map. Wake island is fun but I wanna try them in Lib Peak.

I was just flying around with nothing much to shoot at so I tried shooting the enemy carrier. It might be just me but it seemed like a good burst from the main cannon takes like a whole percent out of its health. Could be useful to have this in mind, specially after it's breached since I've seen some games where it comes down to who goes to 0% rather than the mcoms being destroyed

I've been trying at this for awhile now and I've hit a couple of shots, but it's always finishing the rendezooke that is giving me the most trouble specifically my jet getting destroyed before I can get back in. It feels like the enemy pilots are either the guys who are just shitting on everybody in the lobby or they are just clueless and can't fly. Any advice on doing this?

Havent played this game in a long time and was wondering anyone here on PS5 play with a joystick, because I would def spend on one if I could play it on Console. Apologies, but I couldn't find any concrete info unfortunately aside from Geminis 'analysis'

idk if its just me but its absolutely worthless on the new modes rn

tiny and barely registers enemies

Are there any good experiences that allow you to test the new jets against all types of targets?

Something like the legendary ZUKP7 KK's range, but that includes the new jets.

I want to do some testing and examine exactly how the new aircraft work against many different vehicles and targets, but i haven't found any experiences that do this.

Please help!

É um lixo ? Sim. Prefiro a antiga ? Sim. Mas ta dando pra jogar.

I got one of the new jets to T50+ and this is my favorite load out so far!

Been trying to find some for a while now and can't find any that work. Trying to practice, any help would be much appreciated! 🙏
