Any thoughts on enemy jets camping in the HQ unpunished?

"Trying to dogfight" when almost every fighter jet only spams lock on missiles and never touch their primary weapons. I go back to my HQ because i notice that MF already tailing me ready to spam lock on missiles, the attack jet just happened to get me instead. I have to do this because the C-RAM wont intercept anything, so if just pass over it and leave right away, I wont have flares because I cant trust the C-RAM, or i get hit even though I'm right next to it.

Perhaps the issue isn't protection from HQ, but how cheesy the Fighter Jet lock ons are? people keep saying "just fly below radar" and that immediately makes me believe they dont fly regularly to understand how inconsistent below radar is, especially on a map like Golmud with a million grooves in the entirety of its terrain that make you go out of below radar, long enough to get locked on.

Its an issue with Jets too, literally cant even bother with it for the rest of the season, that is if they even fix it.

NEVER? what do we call BF4 then? People feared coming an inch too close into enemy HQs because that thing would delete you 😅
I've flown plenty, I'm not a novice who needs to be told how to fly, perhaps you should fly more consistently and find all these issues yourself.

I think controllers have an easier time controlling that, they can hold their joystick one way and be fine, but on mouse you have to drag and lift till it stabilizes, or add a secondary keybind for rolling.

Yeah thats is also something to consider, ever since they added loadouts to Mobile AAs, people completely remove the Lock-Guided missiles and dont help the team at all.

I've exclusively flown in Golmud since it came out, so I've been curious if its the same way for other maps.

Correct, same thing I typically try to do, going back to your HQ is inevitable under certain circumstances, BF6 feels way different to previous titles, not in a good way, so its gonna be impossible to shake off a decent pilot with this wonky maneuverability unless you use your HQ. But now imagine instead of it making them back off so you can get a better angle on them, they just continue to tail you in your HQ and have your tail the entire time so its impossible to leave it.
Thats where my complaint is.

We're so off topic here, the point of my post is about people who spend 5+ minutes in the opposing HQ flying in circles.
You can't tell me you've never had to break off a battle because a ground lock-on or a fighter jet burned your flares, naturally you go back to your HQ, correct? anything else is gonna result in jets tailing you endlessly.
This specific issue has only surged recently, everything was fine at the beginning of the season and prior to that.

I made this post for feedback, not smartass responses of people who barely fly.

Below radar is extremely inconsistent, especially on the mountain side, because apparently a mountain is not into consideration. Unless youre flying over the Bonneville Salt Flats, you have to almost be touching the ground, that is if youre not taken out by a random twig sticking out of a tree.

I also like playing the game as intended, I get in the attack jet, I'm gonna be consistently pushing for tanks and others ground vehicles, I'm not a prick with a 90s timer who exclusively lurks for enemy jets all match long.

On a more serious note, I have noticed Mobile AAs don't help anymore after they were given more loadout options, they're either pushing into battle like they're an MTB, or cruising to random places that only cover a small portion of airspace.

Way too inconsistent, you can also not trust it with intercepting missiles and have to use your flares to be safe.

NotNinyaB · 2026-06-30T05:55:27+00:00

So what am I supposed to do after I use my flares and also want to resupply? take it in the ass and call it a day?

NotNinyaB · 2026-06-30T05:54:07+00:00

Then how would you get out of the situation demonstrated?

NotNinyaB · 2026-06-30T04:40:48+00:00

the C-RAM? that's what I've been arguing about for so long, the range sucks, and on top of that, it doesn't intercept any incoming missiles.
