APCs have had this ridiculous shooting at each other and not killing fighting style for as long as I remember and I don't understand why. It's been mentioned in the forums before I think. It takes ridiculous amounts of AP to kill an APC that would be done for after a simple burst of hits IRL. Of course M2A2 and Puma would be different but most APCs are all the same armor wise, weak.

But this is going off topic isn't it ))
This would solve so many problems. No more shooting at the bmp2 for 5 sec only for him to turn his turret around and blast you away despite of you engaging first.

Edit:

Also i just tested the cannon drop on the jets vs accurate free fall values and came to the conclusion that the drop is way too high, at least 3x, but more likely 5x as much as the real cannon.

The devs are not interested in making jets fun to fly anymore.

Why don't you like the new flight model? It is way better and opens up many more possibilities for manouvering and jet combat.

I have to agree that jet cannon drop looks quite odd right now and, as was already said, it doesnt serve the purpose of "nerfing" ground attack with them but rather make dogfights weird.

Also, is jets velocity taken into account for projectile speed? They look a bit slow maybe?
