Yeah lol the main gun on jets is just amazing, especially because I can actually fly a jet and dog-fight unlike half the player base

>being chased by someone
>they shoot a missile
>no flares
>throw on the brakes
>hard right
>barely evade
>they fly past and turns right
>throw on the brakes
>turn left
>unload my cannon on him as he's still trying to turn while accelerating

PRO TIP: SLOW DOWN TO TURN SHARPER
The only time I ever accelerate or afterburn in combat is when I'm being chased by more than one plane, and even then I usually follow up with loop because half the time people won't expect me to try to evade upwards and end up flying right beneath me as I fall in behind them.

Fire extinguisher is actually quite useful even though it replaces flares.

Found lately that engineers like to spend all game locking onto my plane. If i get disabled, then extinguisher fixes that so i can fly out of range/sight. Also about to unlock the ability to disable them from locking onto me momentarily. I can spend all game flying around in the same jet.

Dangit
friking dangit
I already found a server of boosters
:I
I just chucked a grenade when I joined and killed the whole team lol

I HATE PEOPLE WHO ARE AMAZING IN HELICOPTERS
:I
people are getting to good to fast



Guys any tips on evading missles in jets?


and whats the best stuff to have in   Helicopters and Jets
Right now in Attack Helicopters I have Stealth; Flares; and Heat Seekers
and in jets I have Heat Seekers and Flares  (almost stealth too)

But if a mobile AA or jet shoots more than one missile at you it wrecks you before you get a chance to extinguish.

I miss active defense countermeasures but they wouldn't be balanced in BF3 lol

They should make missile more inacurate

[Qwepir]

Not inaccurate, just reduce the turn rate so it's at least possible to consistently dodge them without flares. Even if your missiles are being dodged, every time you fire one the other jet has to drop whatever they're doing and evade. You could very well have just saved some unit on the ground from being strafed with rockets, or an allied plane from being gunned down.

If not that, I'd just like some kind of marker that shows where you are being locked on to from. Like a little circle over the targeting unit or a directional indicator of some sort. Maybe the missile could have a marker on it too so you can at least see where the hell it is.

Their servers suck.

sometimes
sometimes, when you're feeling down
your team is losing
you have almost no chance of winning
sometimes, theres a glimmer of hope
when you just have to pull out your knife
and run down the hill
pulling evasive maneuvers while getting shot at by terrible snipers
and you
go
you go
and ARM THAT MCOM AND WIN
YEAAAAAAAAA

So you slow down and turn hard and the heat seekers will just fly by you?

[SlayerZ99]

I did really well in the Littlebird getting me 1305 points and Im so close to stealth :C

[Qwepir]

So you slow down and turn hard and the heat seekers will just fly by you?

Depends on where they're coming from and when you start the turn. Which is why I'd really like a way to find out where the damn missiles are.

25 kills with a mortar, got a ton of rude remarks from the other team followed by "u mad bro?" from my team. I didn't even say a word.
