It feels like I have limited opportunities to shoot at other planes, and even then I feel to deal like no damage. Could you tell me how you would counter what the video shows? Would I idk guard the resupply points somehow?

Aim is dependent on how well you can fly, so if it feels awkward to you you need to fix that first.

> I haven’t played any other Battlefield games except for Battlefield V 🙂 Im a newbie! The older games just didn’t look too good to me. It was the character customization and things that drew me to BFV. Im usually more of an RPG player like Dragon Age 😛

> Ive flown in other games though. I loved flying in Battlefront II, and I think I was relatively good. I once got a 41 killstreak or something like that in a standard fighter in the Space Assault. Ive also flown planes in other games and tbh overall Im more of a flyer/driver than a shooter I think. But usually I can fly better than anything else, even when shooting is involved in said flying.
> 
> I actually did break off until they attacked ground targets earlier. It didnt change anything. I cant kill them before they reach the resupply point and it’s just back to an endless loop. I should probably work on my aim 😛 I dont think its too bad though. I get hits on enemies a lot.

If you’re the German on Panzerstorm you can use a bomber to kill tanks after the first sector is taken (if Allies you get planes after the second sector is lost), Hamada you can kill AA quite easily and if you get lucky and spawn as the Allies on Narvik you won’t have any opposition in the air until the final sector (planes spawn after about 3 minutes in sector one, and again in sector three) so can bomb AA and gun emplacements. That’s how I completed it anyway - by killing stationary weapons with the JU-88.

> > > 
> > > Thank you for the advice 🙂 And thank you @A_al_K_pacino_A. But Ill be honest here… I really really appreciate you guys trying to help me, but I find most advice that tells me to play a specific game mode/side, no matter what the situation, kinda… useless? That isnt any criticizm of you guys, just the game. I cant choose what side I play as, and I dont have time to do endless server jumping trying to find the one specific scenario where I can actually complete an assignment. The moment I go searching, I get placed into lobbies on the wrong side constantly. It just isnt worth it. Given how AA guns are useless, stationary AA are always too far away, bombers seem to be impossible to kill and Im pretty meh in a tank, I think it might be a good idea to move on and just consider the ToW assignment impossible. Ive been trying for a long time now. The closest Ive come to getting the 3 vehicle kills in 1 round is shooting down 2 planes, but then the game ended because the third plane I was shooting at did exactly the same thing the guy in the video did. I can’t complete the assignment in the conditions the game gives me tbh. Im not sure if its me or the game, but I kinda think it might be both. That said, Ill definitely try Grand Operations 🙂

I do still think trying a bomber is worth a shot as they tank AA and you’re a nice target. Either that or go hunt the new Mosquito as they go down pretty quickly (got 4 using a fighter in one round earlier). On the other hand an assignment might not be worth the frustration.

> Whenever Ive tried to play bombers before, it doesnt seem to work out. One thing Ive noticed in my overall playstyle in almost every game is that I cant play things that are slow and tough. I cant tank. As a bomber, I cant really see any vehicles to destroy (or enemies for that matter). I just fly in loops resupplying bombs but never really kill anything. Meanwhile there are inevitably fighters and AA guns trying to kill me and no one spawns in my plane to help out. It never ends well 😛

Ah that’s a pity - I was asking as you can change teams on Xbox One.
