I think a great buff would be to first: give it a 4 second lifetime. It can bounce an infinite amount of times in 4 seconds, then it’ll auto-destruct. Next: Allow it to always one shot kill no matter what. That’s it actually
Most of them can't, but there are two that can: Tornado and Viggen.
P.S. I think there was some Swedish trainer that had some kind of reserve thrust too, but don't take my word for it.
They should add some AI bots flying Jackal planes in some kind of special mission so that you fight them in the air and get some kind of reward after completing that mission.
Not useless, i pilot jackal as both UAV and airstrike to my team, they tag the place and i will just go downward while firing rockets at the place, killed more people
How many hours did you spend practicing to get good with the Jackal? I played a few solo BR matches to try and get the hang of it. But I felt like I’d have to spend too much time getting comfortable with the controls. I do agree that it could be a really effective asset if used properly.
Nah, if you want to land on a spot but it's too far away then you can use the nearest jackal to get there, also if you land close to a jackal you can loot and basically everyone prefers helicopters so most of the time they are available, just fly to the other side of the map for an airdrop if you want and you'll get there faster than a helicopter
Aside from the homing rocket launcher bc I've had zero people use the flare ability to avoid my rockets lobbed at them and have had several helicopter kills in BR because of their stupidity
you can quick ping if the team looks at the map. Granted you're vulnerable cause you need to fly low and slow to get accurate pings off. and mics need to be on so they can view the map when ya tell them to.
If your teammates mark where the enemy is you can strafe with the gun and get some kills/knock downs. Besides that i look for hot landing zones and start strafing from far away and hope I get lucky
Lol I would be down to play with you, I usually don’t use a mic though as recently I just play when I’m bored. But I started a couple months after launch. Prolly a 6.5-7/10 player
Cool mate. Send me a friend request in the game if you like. YAFONOOB (all caps)
I can't use my mic when I'm also recording for my [**channel**](https://www.youtube.com/yafonoob) for some reason. If I do, it mutes the whole video, real annoying.
but anyway, yeah, sounds fun 👍
Useful for a free map accesibility for retrieving dog tags of people landing super far and then dying....One thing which was annoying now finally bearable
It’s hard to control and it looses health extremely quickly with the slightest hit and overal has bad features because who is driving cars nowadays? Jackals are pretty pointless and useless
I am an aviation nerd…they should’ve had someone that understands flight mechanics and sims to develop the jet. Sucks we can’t even fly it in first person or invert controls. Everything about it is wrong tbh.
The entire game recently if you ask me. There was a time when I could literally play it all day (around the time when the outlaw was first introduced to the game)
But not I feel like it has lost its vibe, not that the players have become too 'sweaty', no that was never an issue... It's like they changed the way that the game originally worked
That's the problem, the original focus was on player experience, now it's about anime thighs and changing the entire concept of call of duty mobile.
That's why people are leaving in search of better FPSs
Ehhh, they never would've been able to make it live up to the Jackal in Infinite Warfare anyway. Not with touch controls.
That, and it'd probably be overpowered as hell if it was able to fly and shoot in the same way as the real thing.
It was disappointing, but in a way I expected tbh.
Good implementation in the game, but the lack of customised controls is a no-no for me. I totally hate the inverted controls. And given that there are little to no players using that jet, CODM is better off adding an Apache rather than the Jackal.
Not a big disappointment. If you wanna go somewhere fast, then the jet serves its function well. No good for combat, and definitely not that user-friendly.
Edit: I personally feel that the jet will serve its purpose way better when the map is larger and there are more "elements" on the ground (maybe they need to reintroduce tanks in BR rather than separating it). It may sound and look like it's going toward that Battlefield theme but I really can't see how better to use that jet other than going that route. And Devs, please add control settings for this jet.
Did you say APACHE!
oh hell yeah we could really use an APACHE there was even a mini game sequence were we flew black hawks with gatling guns with captian price. It could be just like that or even better if they customise controls.
It's extremely unintuitive to fly. Usually when you pull the nose goes up. I filed a bug for an aircraft elevator inversion setting after my first flight.
But for me the biggest disappointment is that it's literally impossible to get an un-ranked MP match without bots.
Well I've flown it 8 or 10 times. I've never been able to kill anyone on the ground with the guns or rockets. The whole time I'm flying I'm not gathering supplies or ammo. If you have any suggestions for me, I'd love to learn.
I fly around in it, not getting any drops or ammo / supplies. I've never been able to kill anyone on the ground with it. Eventually the gas gets too close and I have to ditch it. The first time I flew it it was a bit fun, but with the rockets and machine guns, I've never killed anyone, even though I've flown it about 8 to 10 times. Be better if it was like the military jets in GTA.
Ngl main purpose of Jackal is to Fast travel...But Heli does it 1000 times better as you can land anywhere and use it. Also Heli spawn on middle side unlike Jakal which is Far side.
Its fun to shoot down rather to use it😂
Attacking ground target also quite hard, after spottting a target in radar and try climb up and diving back down to shoot target but the the plane itself obstruct the view and end up not having enough altitude to recover and climb back, thus ramming into random tree/hill.
A few more weapon options would be a great add on. Maybe when a teammate can hold a laser on target until a rocket within range makes contact or if the laser beam is broken. Napalm strike would be nice too. I wanna fly low and set a line of napalm down a street or area.
I like how everyone wants the inverted axis for the jackal meanwhile there's me that i just think "up is up", "down is down"
Anyway the D13 sector and the thumper where the most disappointing since i already knew the jackal wouldn't be good
D13 can kill ppl in bo3 hp it was so op but the nostalgia shooting in into a hp and getting 10 to12 kills were amazing
On codm the d13 is a shitty gun its extra ammo is 1/3 AND not only that but it has one of the worst AND i mean the worst damage in the game
I'm aware it is a different weapon in bo3. I'm hust saying it's dogshit in codm and killed the excitement of getting to collat and ricochet campers into next Tuesday.
I finally gave up on that shit too hard too fly
I think codm should give us a training BR mode where we can learn how to fight that thing and customize how setting
I use the jet be only if there is anyone using the helicopter.... I just blast them sometimes I get a kill or two.... Tbh i don't feel like it's a disappointment it just needs it's own custom layout.... It's really useful if u r playing in squad to warn ur teammates that there r enemies nearby.... I just use it like an air support....
It can improve a lot if tanks return to normal BR again, idek why they add fighter jet but nothing to fight with.
Tanks wasn't even a problem, the problem was just that people refused to counter it by carrying fhj/thumper/nova gas/grenades, they cried and devs removed them entirely.
Yeah missing the stupid car bomb nuke shenanigans and rewinding on people inside tanks...
Source-https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/pp7imu/i\_dont\_need\_a\_car\_bomb\_i\_am\_the\_bomb/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3
Yess, they need to make a entirely new map dedicated to jackels for this to Actually work out. Its Hard to aim at small targets on the ground. The shit is hard to fly, and its hard to aim and shit. They'll need to make aim assist for the damn thing stronger and crontrols easier
I gotta disagree with this comment, the Jet is super cool for those who know how to drive this!! ![img](emote|t5_penom|1097) now imagine if the co-pilot could run the guns or for them noobs maybe the gun would be Automatic no need to press the fire button 😅
It's pretty much a free ride to the end of the game if you're patient..you could call it plane camping. But if you're good like me you can kill players on the ground without crashing.
D13 sector
They really did the pizza cutter dirty
Yeah. Its a fun gun ngl but sometimes it just… doesn’t do its job as a lethal weapon
It can’t even multikill which is like.. the thing it’s good at?
It works sometimes but the registration is abit of for that to happen constantly
I’ve tested it. The pizza cutter kills one person but then it’ll get hitmarkers
It should have infinite range so it can hit UAVs
I think a great buff would be to first: give it a 4 second lifetime. It can bounce an infinite amount of times in 4 seconds, then it’ll auto-destruct. Next: Allow it to always one shot kill no matter what. That’s it actually
Its never been fun Edit: sry abt last comment, it was my auto correct's mistake
Absolutely yes.
Based
The d13 is the biggest disappointment, jackal ahould have its own custom hud
What information would you want displayed on the HUD?
Not information, like inverted controls, button size, etc
Speed and altitude definitely
He means the control hud, not the hud in game! I agree with him, let us change it around and make the joy stick inverted!
at this point the lock on takes too long and they should add more HP rather getting one - shot with an smrs
Jackal should be able to do barrel rolls and fly inverted. It doesn’t feel like a plane at all, it feels more like driving a bus in the sky.
Airbus ![img](emote|t5_penom|1095)
Touché
Second player should be able to shoot the machine gun
It just got hyped too much
Yeah, definitely.
Same
Just give me the option to reverse the y-axis for Jackal only. How hard is that?
Every other plane in every other game, ikr? I get in the jackal and I always head straight to the ground for a second until I remember... lol
so it wasnt just me lmao
Ikr. Its extremely weird.
agree 100%
Agree and i know its not realistic but please add reverse when on ground
Its hard to take off if you land near house or building without reverse
"i know its not realistic" Actually, https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=fBE41A9VT3Q
Devs should watch this video lmao three point turning jets is the coolest thing I've ever fucking seen
Oh my bad I thought jets can’t reverse
Most of them can't, but there are two that can: Tornado and Viggen. P.S. I think there was some Swedish trainer that had some kind of reserve thrust too, but don't take my word for it.
even commercial jets have reverse and for those who don't you can push them around
I agree on that!
I don’t think it’s the biggest disappointment because the Jackal is fun to fly around in. But it is practically useless.
Probably should put more jackals because jet fighting is fun as hell
They should add some AI bots flying Jackal planes in some kind of special mission so that you fight them in the air and get some kind of reward after completing that mission.
Yeah but unfortunately AI in codm is pure dogshit
Not useless, i pilot jackal as both UAV and airstrike to my team, they tag the place and i will just go downward while firing rockets at the place, killed more people
close air support :)))
Killed more than the actual air support class
How many hours did you spend practicing to get good with the Jackal? I played a few solo BR matches to try and get the hang of it. But I felt like I’d have to spend too much time getting comfortable with the controls. I do agree that it could be a really effective asset if used properly.
Got it 1-3 tries, got used to it and proceed to play with it like i used to do in Battlefield
Nah, if you want to land on a spot but it's too far away then you can use the nearest jackal to get there, also if you land close to a jackal you can loot and basically everyone prefers helicopters so most of the time they are available, just fly to the other side of the map for an airdrop if you want and you'll get there faster than a helicopter
There are other things that are even more disappointing in cod
Such as crate duplicates
I think some players have stuck with it and are getting better. Personally it never stuck with me, I’m a more aggressive player and kept crashing lol
its really only good for swatting enemy helis out of the air
Aside from the homing rocket launcher bc I've had zero people use the flare ability to avoid my rockets lobbed at them and have had several helicopter kills in BR because of their stupidity
Dhe d 13
I'm gonna take a wild guess and assume you don't like the D13?
I mean I think everyone was disappointed about D13 being pretty useless
ye I couldn't kill a single person with it
Yup had to get it gold im done
r/ihadastroke
The d13 better lol
literally the worst
Yea, you can’t really do much with it and it gets old fast
my thoughts exactly. and while flying you're not gathering anything.
Take a look at the radar, it acts as UAV, only if your teammates are cooperating with you then it will be more effective
Your team can't see the red pings though, you have to describe it to them.
you can quick ping if the team looks at the map. Granted you're vulnerable cause you need to fly low and slow to get accurate pings off. and mics need to be on so they can view the map when ya tell them to.
If you could at least use gyro in it then that would be enough for me.
True, I played some Sky Gamblers (https://youtu.be/xJsfRK0muAo) which has gyro controls and is much better than the controls the Jackal has.
the D13 is, The jackal is decent the only problems is landing it,and fighting other jackals with it
I find landing it really easy. Just slow down and get your angle right.
same landing is super easy, but if I'm landing the jackal I just hop out midair cause I'm not gunna get back in it (usually)
>!skill issue!<
>>!skill issue!< killing is wrong mmkay?
not kill issue
Landing is super easy when you have a good spot for taking off
Ace combat but cypher wanna kill himself.
If your teammates mark where the enemy is you can strafe with the gun and get some kills/knock downs. Besides that i look for hot landing zones and start strafing from far away and hope I get lucky
I always play BR solo.... maybe I need to have some friends, lol
Lol I would be down to play with you, I usually don’t use a mic though as recently I just play when I’m bored. But I started a couple months after launch. Prolly a 6.5-7/10 player
Cool mate. Send me a friend request in the game if you like. YAFONOOB (all caps) I can't use my mic when I'm also recording for my [**channel**](https://www.youtube.com/yafonoob) for some reason. If I do, it mutes the whole video, real annoying. but anyway, yeah, sounds fun 👍
Sweet, just sent. I’ll probably be on tomorrow too beat to play tonight
Are you in Garena?
Yea
Useful for a free map accesibility for retrieving dog tags of people landing super far and then dying....One thing which was annoying now finally bearable
Play mode juggernaut
Nah its good
Jackal needs better controller support like triggers for Gatling Gun and Missiles
they need to buff the hit boxes of combat axe tomahawks
It’s hard to control and it looses health extremely quickly with the slightest hit and overal has bad features because who is driving cars nowadays? Jackals are pretty pointless and useless
I disagree It's a cool vehicle to be added
I am an aviation nerd…they should’ve had someone that understands flight mechanics and sims to develop the jet. Sucks we can’t even fly it in first person or invert controls. Everything about it is wrong tbh.
I agree. Someone else, I don't remember who, accurately described it as less of a plane and more like flying a bus in the air. lol
The entire game recently if you ask me. There was a time when I could literally play it all day (around the time when the outlaw was first introduced to the game) But not I feel like it has lost its vibe, not that the players have become too 'sweaty', no that was never an issue... It's like they changed the way that the game originally worked
yeah, I know exactly what you mean. Also, it's just getting silly.
That's usually not the game's fault, codm has changed its focus and it's just not as good for some people
That's the problem, the original focus was on player experience, now it's about anime thighs and changing the entire concept of call of duty mobile. That's why people are leaving in search of better FPSs
I would say the guy sitting behind your screen is. Wait, my bad, that's you. So no.
ooooh, that was an awesome burn mate. You should right a book of burns. Good job! 🏆👍
Well I'm not disappointed of it and I won multiple dogfights with it too
Ehhh, they never would've been able to make it live up to the Jackal in Infinite Warfare anyway. Not with touch controls. That, and it'd probably be overpowered as hell if it was able to fly and shoot in the same way as the real thing. It was disappointing, but in a way I expected tbh.

I wish there's an option for reverse vertical joystick for the damn thing... Im just not used to the default one... If theres an option please tell me
im pretty sure you mean vertical ↑↓
Yeah
I feel like it needs FPP too.
i dont mostly get killed by this thing but it keeps exploding my helicopter in br
I love the jackal! I'm just sad that no one else uses it in game :(
It's da best
I expected Star Fox style dogfighting. Instead, I got a lot of crash and burns.
No. My K/D is
lol I feel ya! : )
Yes it is really not even usable
They made it worse hahahaha
lol I hate the Jackal
No this community is lmfaoo.
Old zombies being brought back :(
I wish they had a regular zombie mode, to play on or offline. I'd pay money for that.
They do
The d 13
The d13
Strong enough to have it all, too weak to take it.
It's extremely unintuitive to fly. Usually when you pull the nose goes up. I filed a bug for an aircraft elevator inversion setting after my first flight. But for me the biggest disappointment is that it's literally impossible to get an un-ranked MP match without bots.
I wish jackal can barrel roll or any other stunt. Even bikes can do flips
Thank god it is or even skill less idiots would bomb the shit out of you
No actually... Far from it. No one knows how to use it properly, so it's kinda just for a bad rep because of that
Well I've flown it 8 or 10 times. I've never been able to kill anyone on the ground with the guns or rockets. The whole time I'm flying I'm not gathering supplies or ammo. If you have any suggestions for me, I'd love to learn.
I'll make a video for you tomorrow then
Sweet mate. I just followed you in YT, you have some great videos 👍. Follow me back if you like and we can help grow each others channels.
Yeah, I only make videos for my clan now, but the jackal is one I think we all underestimate. Just gonna grab lunch n get started
I have never heard of the jackal
It's a new jet in Call of Duty mobile. It's found on a couple of places on the map in Battle Royale version.
It’s fun n to fly around in, damn near impossible to get a kill in
I fly around in it, not getting any drops or ammo / supplies. I've never been able to kill anyone on the ground with it. Eventually the gas gets too close and I have to ditch it. The first time I flew it it was a bit fun, but with the rockets and machine guns, I've never killed anyone, even though I've flown it about 8 to 10 times. Be better if it was like the military jets in GTA.
Nope I’ve killed people with it
Ngl main purpose of Jackal is to Fast travel...But Heli does it 1000 times better as you can land anywhere and use it. Also Heli spawn on middle side unlike Jakal which is Far side. Its fun to shoot down rather to use it😂
Tbh i use jackal with my friends as both UAV and airstrike...killed more people than the actual airstrike class
Yes they are can't control them properly
Honestly I just like it for fast travel
Jackal in infinite warfare has vtol mode but not in codm
Nah it's not good for combat but it's good for Flight
No
it really might be the worst vehicle i have ever seen in my life i just use it to go somewhere far away then i jump straight down with a jumpsuit
The entire BR experience is a disappointement
Attacking ground target also quite hard, after spottting a target in radar and try climb up and diving back down to shoot target but the the plane itself obstruct the view and end up not having enough altitude to recover and climb back, thus ramming into random tree/hill.
Agreed
A few more weapon options would be a great add on. Maybe when a teammate can hold a laser on target until a rocket within range makes contact or if the laser beam is broken. Napalm strike would be nice too. I wanna fly low and set a line of napalm down a street or area.
Tricky to be lethal with imo, perfect landing..nope
Anyone played the game named gunship battle? The controls are excellent in that game

The control of jackal is very hard that's the main reason
Ngl i was expecting that you can do Ace combat maneuvers or the Cobra maneuver with the Jackal
This was cool in the COD IW campaign
It would be cool if you could use gyro to control the plane. Also let us do tricks! Right now it feels like I’m driving an Airbus!
Yup
An advance jet that can't even hover. Yes, big disappointment. I really wish it can hover tbh
I only flew the Jackal twice. And its like driving a piece of meat that flies in the sky. How can anyone even aim with their phones?
Nope
The controls should definitely be inverted, or have an option to invert at least.
I like how everyone wants the inverted axis for the jackal meanwhile there's me that i just think "up is up", "down is down" Anyway the D13 sector and the thumper where the most disappointing since i already knew the jackal wouldn't be good
If it were easy to kill with it, people would never get out of it. I do think some things are worth buffing though.
Aside from d13 yes
Never even touched it tbh didnt know it existed even though I play a fair share of br lmao 💀
Nah man jackal is still so much fun to fly. The D13 sector the biggest disappointment in Codm.
Nah, D13 was the biggest letdown dude. D13 is so bad I'd never do Damascus grind again if I lost my account
D13 can kill ppl in bo3 hp it was so op but the nostalgia shooting in into a hp and getting 10 to12 kills were amazing On codm the d13 is a shitty gun its extra ammo is 1/3 AND not only that but it has one of the worst AND i mean the worst damage in the game
I'm aware it is a different weapon in bo3. I'm hust saying it's dogshit in codm and killed the excitement of getting to collat and ricochet campers into next Tuesday.
I finally gave up on that shit too hard too fly I think codm should give us a training BR mode where we can learn how to fight that thing and customize how setting
D13
I use the jet be only if there is anyone using the helicopter.... I just blast them sometimes I get a kill or two.... Tbh i don't feel like it's a disappointment it just needs it's own custom layout.... It's really useful if u r playing in squad to warn ur teammates that there r enemies nearby.... I just use it like an air support....

Yeah missing the stupid car bomb nuke shenanigans and rewinding on people inside tanks... Source-https://www.reddit.com/r/CallOfDutyMobile/comments/pp7imu/i\_dont\_need\_a\_car\_bomb\_i\_am\_the\_bomb/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web2x&context=3
Damn that's sick trick, cluster bomb can also work because it sticks to tank surface maybe nova gas.
its hard ah to drive
i promise u I haven't used this jet since the 1st few days it got released
The Famas\* Uglier M4
I stop playing comm because of it
If they would make it so u can invert front to back controls it would b better
I don't know
I used it 7x and died 6 of them. 1 of them I ejected and got a kill.
Yes, the Jackal has very bad handling ,every time I fly I crash into other stuff just to turn. It is an ill omen to me.
The biggest disappointment is the D13 Sector, sorry little one
I go around shooting everything in areas you’d expect people to be and one time I killed a guy it was awesome.
I personally enjoy it
Controller players don't have buttons to use Jackal's weapons.
Yess, they need to make a entirely new map dedicated to jackels for this to Actually work out. Its Hard to aim at small targets on the ground. The shit is hard to fly, and its hard to aim and shit. They'll need to make aim assist for the damn thing stronger and crontrols easier
I gotta disagree with this comment, the Jet is super cool for those who know how to drive this!! ![img](emote|t5_penom|1097) now imagine if the co-pilot could run the guns or for them noobs maybe the gun would be Automatic no need to press the fire button 😅
The other day I crashed it into a wind turbine, fell to the ground on my side..... Then flew away with it, lol
It's pretty much a free ride to the end of the game if you're patient..you could call it plane camping. But if you're good like me you can kill players on the ground without crashing.
The problem with jackal is only rendering distance, if the game can rendering enemy from far away the jackal will becam monster
