I had a pretty good round...but the jet with a 23:1 K/D ratio owned our team.

i agree with puglous a good jet pilot can rule a map.great for that one player but the game is ruined for everyone else.aa is all but ineffective, if aa was more effective then the game would have balance.that what its all about just give us a way to deal with them, then the complaining would stop

Ya airpower is pretty much invincible, even Blackhawks are hard to kill without being killed yourself. Thats why I play on Karkand all the time. The Stingers need to be proximity detonated, with a higher turning circle, to balance out the game more. The bombs should be limited, and the planes should respawn at longer intervals, making the loss of one a bigger deal to the team. Mobile stingers... theres a good idea

Yeah, whining, a good way to distract from the fact that you have no argument and STILL haven't even read my first post. I didn't think people could have negative IQs but you proved me wrong. AA IS PURE LUCK!

It amazes me how people with such inability to listen could learn to read, write, or even talk. I already told you IF THE ONLY WAY TO STAY ALIVE IS TO GET IN A FORM OF AIRPOWER ONLY A FEW PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE HAVING ANY CHANCE AT SURVIVAL OR FUN SIMPLY BECAUSE THEY LOADED THE MAP THE QUICKEST AND SPAWNED CLOSEST TO THE JET/HELI.

If you're not going to listen don't bother to pick your knuckles up from the floor and waste my bandwidth with such brainless responses.

Who needs to read your first post? The subject and seeing nearly 30 pages of BS is enough for me. :blabla:

If Jets could capture a flag in the brief fraction of a second they pass over a Spawn Point then I might consider that air power ruined the game...otherwise...helis are easy to shoot down with missiles if they're hovering to capture a point...and jets are avoidable in many cases. Take cover...war is hell.

Re: I'm so sick of airpower ruining this game!

I dont think I have ever been killed by a jet bombing, either on foot or in a vehicle....The only time a jet gets me is when I'm in another jet or in a helicopter....but the AA still needs to be fixed....we need to put the fear of god into those flyboys...

Perfect fix for Air-to-air and Surface-to-air weapons: remove the tracking system and make them dumbfire like in Desert Combat. Then you have a predictable weapon that does what you tell it to with a little practice, jets have to work a little harder because their opposition has more control, and less TK's due to missiles locking onto friendly vehicles instead of the enemy.

Re: I'm so sick of airpower ruining this game!

This idea is a really easy fix to the problem...I would just give the launchers more missiles. I'd say the minimum would be 6 per reload for the standard launchers...and like 15 for the ones on the carriers....I could imagine it would be annoying to fire off your 2 rockets....miss and take a bomb up the arse.

That's not the solution. Giving more missiles will only increase the chance for TEAM vehicle damage.

Just make them have a 2m proximity to explode and that'll solve the problem.

My comment was in referance to the comment by jesse that suggested making it so the missiles do not lock on they would just fire straight forward like stingers...If we were going to do that, we would need more missiles per reload to compensate.

Re: I'm so sick of airpower ruining this game!

now there is the answer we will all play the same map and some mod with a jet per man.this is a discussion on how to fix a problem.and by the way i play with several jet pilots that can rule a map.they will kill you unless you get inside a hanger or some other cover.seriously i think that more effective AA would take care of the problem.i would like to see the server have more control, after all they are paying the tab. let them disable armor and aircraft and the commanders position if they so choose. then we could see some variation to the game.

I disagree. On foot they are nearly impossible to kill, making Maashtuur city a living hell if you're on the MEC, in a tank however, while they are not exactly easy to kill, they are very easy to survive against.
