I was flying a full huey on Caspian Border conquest and a jet ran into me and killed all 6 of us. 4 of us were in a squad and party, and there was much laughter and swearing.

2 guys with stingers are a much bigger pain in the ass.



That and MGs are the only real way to bring down a plane/heli. If you're by yourself, you have almost no chance of bringing down a plane/heli.

  the game is concentrated on combat, not on shaking the screen.

I've shot down more jets with helis than in jets. A decent gunner and air to air missiles negate the jets, ground fire is much more deadly.

Yeah almost zero of the jet pilots can take a helo down in a single pass.  Unless they are in a A-10 or Su-25.

And you end up talking about beer or baseball. A different experiences from the constant "check 6's" on Aces High.
Curious that.  In my experience it's the other way round: plenty of time to chat in AH, and always way more tactical info to communicate than there's time for in BF3.

I was thinking much lighter lag than that.

I agree AH is a very slow paced game if you are half-alert you can see any situation develop.

Heres another example of the silliness of the BF3 flight game. With AH one has a training room where you can pretty much train with anything and never be bothered. With BF3 you can type "practice" into the server window and enter a practice server to at least try and learn to fly with a mouse. However these practice servers have more score padding boneheads in them then players actually practicing. They will spawn camp runways with jets, choppers, or manpads, and pad their scores with easy kills of noobs whom are actually trying to improve their skills. And none of its Policed.

At least with BC2 you could go into empty servers and practice. With BF3 you need at least 7 players to make a server go active.

No Track IR, lousy comms, only a couple jets available "and players have learned how to "game" the use of them already. They have learned to hold down certain keys to always have a jet available. :huh Even if you want to fly you may never get your hands on a jet in a round anyways.
Yes, your on "Ignore"
