It wasn't the shopkeeper I was referring too!

CTF mode - hmmm. Its okay, but that's about it. Tanks should have been removed as they just hang around the flag. Probably one of the many modes that end up being played only for the assignments and then forgotten about (much like Gun Master and Scavanger)

Air Superiority - Great way of levelling up the jet. Just a shame that DICE makes controlling it so hard.

CTF needs the tanks as its the only safe way to go in and get a flag, bikes while fast offer little protection and could do with being put on the armoured kill maps instead of the quad bikes.

Gun Master and Scavenger are both good as they force people to use different guns, so many people use the same weapons day in day out etc.

Air Superiority will be interesting to see how long it stays popular as tank superiority was not that popular but overall it will be people flying into each other, though funny how some server owners are putting up 64 players when their are only 24 jets for 12v12.
Jet controls are fine, plenty of videos on youtube how to fly though against a decent jet piolt that can dog fight you mostly die.

Tanks could be used like that, but so far everyone just keeps them next to the flag...

Jet controls are awful, plus there are two serious problems with it : The automatic switch to 3rd person version is so irritating. Plus, go high enough and you loose all control of the jet (you cant do anything with it - and it doesn't move).

I don't see many people playing either mode much after a few days - much like Gun Master and Scavenger.

Yea I got stuck somewhere in the twilight zone while in a jet :/

The maps have different high ceilings about 900m/1000/ and 1100 so if your playing the back to karkand maps you will see the F35's go the ceiling as they can hover and kill the russian jet.

The switch to third person view is up to the user on PC, so maybe you have something selected in options prehaps?

BF1942 was the best for flying high. You could go up into the exosphere if you wanted, higher than Felix Baumgartner even. Took flipping ages to come back down though, even without pulling your 'chute. Them were the days.

Nothing in the options about it about auto changing, unless it is misreading the joypad as a keyboard...
