This is just raw footage I lifted from an EC match
May or may not be of interest
Most important thing to note is the lack of attempts to turn hard or doing fancy tricks that bleed your speed
I miss a pass on a Gladiator and instead of trying to glue myself on his tail I just extend away and set myself up for another pass
@Reaps how do I git gud at strafing ground targets?
point crosshair at them.
don't fly into the ground
I do, but they never seem to hit 😐
how do you mean?
what are you strafing?
bullets bounce off tanks bruh
also, on a more serious note
try test flight
there's at least one ground target
aim slightly above your target to compensate for shell drop
further away, higher you aim
even when diving
Strafing combat cars or AA
also, some weapons (like the 30mm mk103 on the duck) will kick and pull your aim down further
don't get greedy
because that *will* cause you to run into the ground
if you're hitting a convoy then line yourself up so you can hit multiple targets - even if you miss the intended target you might at least wind up hitting something else
How do I get away from the HAXX russian biplane ?
(((I-15)))
what are you flying?
japs can turn with it, generally speaking
most planes are faster than it, generally speaking
Am playing as fat climb Americans
P36 or
p-36s
and Buffalos
Buffalo is pretty nimble
P-36 is too
But the i-15 will most likely bleed your energy in a sustained turnfight
Both planes are (probably) heavier, so always try to keep a speed and altitude advantage
if you can stay on their tail, then do so - but if you can't, then break off and go into a shallow dive to get your E back
the earlier i-15s have fixed landing gear and are slower
the later ones like the i-153 are much nastier
Any tips for getting away from other planes as when using dive bombers?
