Feedback, regarding the F-22's DPS
Having a lot of fun flying around in this thing, used to be my favorite military aircraft when I was a kid. Lots of good memories flying this thing in Ace Combat 4: Shattered Skies. This was a slight nostalgia trip for me.
The plane, in this mod, is not without it's issues, though.

TLDR: The plane's damage output, both for missiles AND the primary gun, desperately needs a buff. If possible, the missiles also need to be more effective at tracking their targets.

Missile Feedback

-The missiles need to be a lot more maneuverable (or, in layman's terms, they need to be more accurate.) I'm not sure if that can actually me adjusted, though. I found that, even against Bombers (replaced with A-10 Warthogs), missiles would NEVER hit the target. I eventually just started using them as lock-on Air-to-Surface missiles.
-The explosion damage of the missiles needs to be increased substantially. Obviously, the intended use of the missiles is Air-to-Air, but I was still staggered by how many missiles it took to blow up a measly jeep. Considering the damage that I was dealing per missile to that jeep, it'd be a cold day in hell if you actually managed to take down an enemy aircraft with the missiles.

Primary Gun Feedback

-Primary Gun damage also needs to be buffed. The lack of missile effectiveness incentivizes you to use the primary gun to take down targets, which is a lot more reliable at dealing damage. The thing is, the damage that IS dealt by the primary gun, at least against other F-22s, is ♥♥♥♥ing abysmal, pardon my French.
On two separate occasions, I played a match with the game length set to "Long". I was only able to take out TWO planes over the course of a 15-20 minute match by constantly tailing them and successfully landing 5-round bursts on target the majority of the time.


Overall, the vehicle mod is really good. The Raptor's model fits the Ravenfield aesthetic very well, and I especially love how parts of the aircraft change color based on the team occupying it. It's also incredibly fast and insanely fun to fly. The only real problem with it is just the damage output, as mentioned numerous times above.
Seems like this ought to be an easy fix, but regardless, I hope you appreciate the constructive criticism instead of hearing "damage sucks fix now" or "can you make another plane".

Thanks for your feedback ! I appreciate your critic ;)
I think I fixed the named issues ( I'm making new mods so that's why I'm not sure if I fixed it or not ^^' ).
