Every time I go into fighter sweep or a jet practice lobby I never use the lock on because I can get far better practice using my cannons and still doing well even though I’m not spamming lock ons.
Ideally, I could play fighter sweep where everyone just concentrate on getting better with their cannon instead of just trying to get kills and actually fight each other with the main gun. That shit would be intense. It would be a lot more exciting than owning people left and right just to get third-party randomly from some aim guided or lock on rocket

(Keep in mind what I’m about to say is my experience and I’m not saying yours is invalid just different.)

I keep wondering why everyone is complaining about flares?

My flares work every time. And I have at least 130+ something hours flying in BF6 alone. The only time I get hit by flares it’s my fault.

The flares aren’t a force field. They chunk their way out and are what the missile is attracted to.
If you don’t immediately exit the area of combat when being targeted by a lock on or begin moving away from the source, or actually just start moving at least in one direction so that when you do have to pop your flares, you are leaving them behind you and not in a turn or while floating or moving slow then you’re liable to get hit by a rocket.
This is especially true with an Igla. The velocity those things come at you. They’ll push through your flares to an extent and if you’re within the area of effect of your flares, you again risk getting hit.

Another reason I never really get hit is because I rarely fly more than a 50 m off the ground unless I’m in a jet, so that I’m easily able to duck below radar as soon as I start getting locked on and stay there if not exit the field of combat when I do get locked on. If I pop my flares, I don’t return or get within radar range if I don’t have flares.

Each map you enjoy flying on or even the ones you don’t you need to constantly be aware of where the AA it stationed. You need to be constantly aware of when the enemy jet is up. You need to constantly be aware of that one guy that keeps throwing stingers or Igla’s at you.
You need to constantly be aware of where you are in relation to cover and where you are in relation to the elevation it takes you to get below radar.

As far as these new boat aim assisted missiles. So far, they have been a non-issue for me. I’ve got shot down maybe a handful of times. And that’s because I haven’t followed my own rules. A certain rule for this one is once you know where the boat is, you kill it or avoid it. That would be the first rule, but if you can’t do that, then you be aware that That One is sending missiles your way, and the guys likely to respawn in it if it goes down.

This is always been an issue in Battlefield. I don’t get why everyone so been out of shape by it. I’ve been hearing peopleee talk about getting hit through their flares since Battlefield 3.

Sometimes they’re buggy, I guess granting that to you, but the majority of the time they’re not. And if they’re always buggy for you then it’s likely a connection issue or computing issue.

In my experience it’s all about the angle of attack and your relative position and the speed of your craft.
Also mitigating the issue by not overextending and being very conscious of the threats and your relative position to them and cover and you’re golden.

Again this is my experience as a veteran, daily pilot.

I binge watched this all day

I have several questions I want you guys to answer:

Which sludge metal band has the best bass tone?

Which sludge metal band has the best guitar tone?

Which sludge metal band has the best kick drum sound?

Which sludge metal band has the best snare sound?

Which sludge metal band has the best overall tone?

These can be a different band for every question or however, you feel, but I want your honest answers to as many of those questions as you can, and that would make my day. I’m on the hunt.

I’m definitely interested in the specific questions more than overall, but don’t let that stop you from answering your favorite overall

4.5 out of 5 for me

The Anti vehicle shells went from 50 damage to infantry to fucking 16!!!!! Wtf?!? Now it’s truly worthless.
Not only that I don’t see it in the patch notes.

I just got proficient in killing infantry so I was allowed to push up and be a part of the PTFO but I don’t see how I’m gonna do that if I can’t kill infantry shooting thousands of rockets at me. And I won’t camp the thing because it’s what worthless trash does with it. But now you’ve made it so much harder not to just sit back and toss rockets at enemy flares.

I am my console player on Xbox and a veteran player whose favorite Battlefield is by far Battlefield 4 . That being said , I really enjoy BF6 . I don’t die behind cover. I don’t really suffer from any issues with the netcode. I don’t care about 90% of the problems people whine about consistently. The only issues I have is the lack of content and the size of the Maps, the server browser, debacle, and the lack of air radar. I’m not too upset about the jet loadout because they’ve got three different weapons each, and they have clearly defined roles.
I’m sure I could sit around pick it apart, but I just try to enjoy myself.
I’m primarily a vehicle player, but I have run and gun often and honestly think this is one of the best battlefields there. I said it it’s one of my favorite battlefields.
