I don’t want to sound like I’m some pro and knows everything about planes and how they work but more than not when I’m flying in this I can stay up in the air and by the looks of how many fly that’s something not many can do well…
From speaking to other players an getting their feedback it was apparent that
-
They use a damage model that is ether not working or is not implemented correctly, Many and even I find I can shoot down a plane with a Handgun some times but others I’m laying into them with AA and nothing seems to effect them
-
3rd person is needed , This is not my idea and I don’t even fully support it but for the many this would help a massive amount an probably make dogfights a little more fun for them which I’m all for getting in more dog fights
-
they need to spawn further back / have a little further re supply point , I think that’s fairly on the point its a little to easy to “Pump and dump” and be back in the fight within seconds which if you know how to aim bombs it can make for a really un fun experience for anyone on the ground
Just make cockpit glass clear again, add mirror like WT has for planes, free look is great but not right behind.
As for damage model, it would be cool, to have engine fires, smoke in cockpit, bullet holes in wings and canopys, all I see is elevators missing sometimes.
It is Beta, so trusting they will fix cockpit, add plane damage properly.

after watching people fly ,yes we do .,
Do i need it no but I understand the basics they dont
Your idea is bad and you should feel bad.
We don’t need 3rd person anything.

the game tries to simulate real life to some degree of success and pilots did not have eyes behind their plane while they were in it IRL, and the way people fly is a learn to play issue since i’ve also flown planes with me crashing because i misjudged the distance and how far i could pull. rarely do i go down in a dogfight and the times i do is because i wasn’t paying attention

Tank and plane in this game is horrible, especially their damage algorithm is so unstable. Besides, AA gun damage is fucking weak, and only 10 rounds for a 4 x 20mm cannon turret?
again I clearly stated I dont want 3rd person for me but you dont have the Mindset to read it all do u…
I never said you wanted it for yourself, friend
It’s a git gud issue in general lmao
I totally agree
Only if they are given only to Fighters and take away their bombs
Good idea but it can backfire too, people might complain that it takes too much time to get to the refill stations
Hmm 3rd person only in Fighters that could work too, I honestly don’t care for bombers anyways so down with them ! BUT for real Its not a 100% needed thing for alot of us but for alot of the other people it seems to be a big compliant when I talk to them . Maybe that’s a good middle road I like it
Now about the refills , What about if they forced us to land like they do in WT ? That way it can be close but still takes enough time
Okay fair enough I’ve just seen enough I see how you’d view it like that , I personally feel its still arcadey enough to have a look behind you key but maybe what if they made a more hardcore game mode that disables it kind of like how they have Realistic battles in WT that way there is a middle ground for it seeing from what Ive witnessed theres enough people that want it to justify some sort of implementation
Thats the problem most people don’t like having to wait that much, i don’t know how to fix the refill ingame but i suppose its not the most important thing
Yeah your not wrong its really not a game killing type of thing more quality of life
Problems I see with planes is that there are not enough of them to make air more interesting.
Atm there are no real dogfights there.
Also planes moced quite clumpsy compared to WT, ar least in France.
i can see your issue of no dogfights because people in this game don’t really go for each other while they’re in an airplane
yeah i would like to see them to an air only combat
