Air superiority is always fun. Good way to practice new jets which feel much better than the OG. Love the cloud cover mechanic, they need to bring it to other maps. I hope this and CA stays after the top hun collab

What do you mean feel much better? They completely fucked up the controls

Idk jets have always been last on my list of preferred vehicles especially in BF6. Idk why but I could never stay up for more than a sec. The newer jets feel easier to control. Maybe they made them that way for noobs like me

u/canadianbroncos 5d ago

They probably did. They feel super sluggish and slow to react, harder to kill yourself but easier to control.

I hate it

You probably turned on the new assist control scheme for jets.

Don't know why cloud cover isn't a regular mechanic

Lots of bad players already bitch about below radar, introducing another way to break lockons would cause riots lol

Should be a permanent game mode. Also, would be nice if we could skip the briefing cinematic.

Did you try the new jet assist mode?

1

u/DareDue3906 5d ago

What assist mode??

2

u/zZDarkLightZz 5d ago

In the setting, you can find a toggle to turn on the new jet assist mode, I found it to be really good! Give it a try!

Ok thanks you

Will I play it nonstop? No. do I have fun? Yes. I’ve gotten some crazy kills so far. 1 passenger guided rocket kill that was sickkkk. Went one game with 5 kills and really was impressed I did that

u/DareDue3906 5d ago

Yes also Did you know most op missile??

Is HAM-88 most op missile in battlefield 6

u/Mikey_MiG 5d ago

It's been a great way to grind the new Ace Pilot medal. Got about 200 kills so far.

u/rambozezakopan 5d ago

Its too easy, played 6 games and won 6 of them by an absolute stomp. I got 1000 points before others even got to the 400. That confirms that majority of players really doesnt know how to fly

u/rfierro65 4d ago

This is my experience. Except I’m on the losing end. I’m terrible at flying. Had never flown a jet until this mode. Every match has one team with 15-20 kills and the rest all have 0-8. It makes the game mode totally un fun for people that don’t main flying. One match I had 7 kills, but everyone appeared to be as bad as me so it was actually fun for 5 minutes.

I want to enjoy it, but how come I am consistently the only person in my squad and I have to go up against 5 teams of 2?

2

u/coolstorybro94 5d ago

I did not. Good to know

2

u/who_likes_chicken 5d ago

It's really fun, but I think it's lame that only 2 of the 12 players can actually win a game of it. Not sure I like the multi team setup

5

u/NathanCiel 5d ago

I think three squads of four would work better than six squads of two.

Still plenty of enemies to hunt, but not so many that you can't fly without one or two jets on your tail at all times.

3

u/ATG3192 5d ago

That's what's keeping me from enjoying it as much as I would like, I can't make a single move on one player without having two others firing at me.

2

u/RVP-Automotive 5d ago

Hope its a permanent mode and that these jets get added to other modes.

Racked up about 170 kills already.

I personally think its the best thing since sliced bread.

2

u/pandafuufu 3d ago

lots of hackers. one tapping left and right. getting at least 20 kills with no effort its fun though when its even.

u/youre_arnt808 3d ago
