sun in eyes
maybe it's just me but, why is the sun in the blue team eyes 9 times out of 10 ? you can't see anything. you get killed by people you can't even see. of course the sun is at the backs of the red team so they go a slaughter spree. anybody else notice this?

thats part of air tactics, you want to be attacking downward so gain altitude as soon as the game starts and dive from above

He means battle are onesided with one team being constantly blinded by the sun

That's silly because the sun is everywhere as it is in real life. What makes you think that only one side gets it?

When the sun set/rise behind the enemy team spawn don't tell me your not handicaped when all your team vehicle are highlighted with the sun reflection while the enemy one are hidden in their own shadow

There was no mention of sun set/rise. I think he was just about about the glarbing sun mid day. But OP can communicate some more instead of leaving this up to misinterpretation.

Thank you for posting this.

But I will agree that the team facing the sun in a dawn or dusk match, tanks or planes, has a disadvantage.

I am fairly certain this is what the OP is typing about. This is a disadvantage to the team facing the sun. It was not possible to see any planes in the sky looking towards the enemy side of the map and it was very difficult to see tanks sitting up on the high ground. This was in arcade mode and it was still hard to see.

Plenty of people brought it up, the devs do not listen.
The devs cannot even read english.

Go into settings and disable HDR/Lens Flare etc.
