Are we serious with aircraft right now?

Just completely dominate every map, now even transport choppers do too. Hit a jet with 2 boat AA missiles, still flying. Hit a transport chopper with guided rockets, still flying.
New idea; just make aircraft invincible, remove all AA from the game, since it's all useless anyway. OBVIOUSLY can't nerf helicopters or choppers in any way, shape or form. Give em a little baby rattle too, keep them happy.

Says the dude having a child-like tantrum in an online forum about other players he's too unskilled to counter or utilise to the same level himself.
I am aware this behaviour is typical of the Steam discussions page, but my goodness some of you are insufferable.

You clearly haven't seen the mental gymnastics some people do to justify aircraft. And yeah, I was upset and throwing a tantrum, but I think my post was pretty tame compared most vitriol seen on Steam forums.

Have you ever flown?
As soon as you get above the radar, it's beeping constantly and rockets are incoming. From there on, it's all down to pilot skill. Transports take two hits, which is normal, and jets take one.
Iglas go straight through flares, so it's your issue.

uhhh, planes are trash in bf6.
They've completely killed plane viability in this game.
Sure some people do well, but they're below 20th place on the leaderboard and not really doing anything worthwhile for the team.
If you're having a hard time with jets, thats a team problem.
Transport choppers fly super low, use a tank, bradley or RPG?
hell even the 50.cal on vehicles does significant damage, enough to make them piss off.

People just don't want to work as a team.
It's rare to have any random squad work together.
