Re: I'm making some jet tutorials. Requests?

So is a lot of info people are requesting.

Bombing third post... and it's yours... So why not bitch at someone for requesting a bombing tutorial?

and there's this, and stolen from that page, there's this.

Youre a dumb ****ing moron if you think I have anything against a full scaled tutorial explaining the capabilities, potential and differences of all aircraft in the game. Then again, you seem like a moron anyway, so I explain why I think its not a good idea to do a tutorial explaining jets differences.

One, were dealing with a LOT of technical data here. Explaining everything for each jet would take a LOT of screentime.

Two, most of that knowledge is "personal". Meaning, people discover most of what concerns their jets, and use it for themselves. Since dogfighting is directly a player vs player situation, every player should discover the technicalities themselves, aswell as the proper use of his/her jets strenghts weaknesses.

Three, what Metallica most probably wants to do is a simple start up tutorial. I imagine it to look like ArmyDrs. Its simple, you get the basics and everything else is up to you.

Finally- what I mean by "that kind of info is available on forums" is- theres a ton of information regarding technical differences between jets. I have personally posted up 3-5 major posts with a lot of numbers describing jets characteristics. Its good if you dig into those numbers and try to understand them and experiment them yourself. Dogfighting is like a swordfight, everyone approaches to the battle with his own philosophy, and using strenghts and weaknesses his own way. I in no way wanted to step on your toe, I just think that this kind of information is better "absorbed" by reading, understanding and using tidbits of it yourself. Because it would just take too much of screentime.

But thats for that nice failed personal attack. Idiot.

Oh thats easy to do.. wanna know how it happened to me i just flew in the back of the carrier with top speed and strangely my f35 survived when i jumped out when i was about to enter the plane again it flew off with the top speed i landed it in the back of the carrier .. Lol..

Yeah theres a glitch where you can fly into the boat part of the carrier to the right hand side corner at full speed and not die.

It's pretty crazy.. lol

Re: I'm making some jet tutorials. Requests?

Ah this is one hell of a cool topic.. I just bought my Logitech Extreme 3D Pro (Btw. How long did it laster for the ones in this topic that use it? I heard neg. things about the durability..)

I could already bomb etc. but dogfighting is the thing I really suck in.. Well in a F35-B I always fly at 500-600 So J10's aren't a problem..

You talking about this video?

Re: I'm making some jet tutorials. Requests?

How about an overview of each plane? Strenghts, weaknesses, abilities, manueverability, etc.? Nothing too detailed.

I haven't seen anybody else post this, but avoiding surface to air missles like Linebackers, Tunguskas, IGLAs, etc. The F35 seems extremely sluggish when avoiding these.

I can tell you that right now.

JSF sucks for A2A combat (IE dogfighting, obviously) but if there are no other planes in the air, it can change the whole tide of the game if used right. It's the FASTEST, strongest afterburner, most stable plane in the game, with a 600 round cannon.. which is very strong and underrated. It's also really responsive and has a fast roll rate. One of the best things for the A2S is the center-mounted cannon.

J-10, we all know this plane. Really good for A2A combat. It excels in turning, and "dodging" missles. It has a faster "base" speed than all the other jets (IE when you aren't using the AB), and a longer lasting (but not as powerful) afterburner. The thing that makes it bad for surface attacks is that it isn't very steady, and the cannon comes from the left side of the jet. Also the bombs have a higher spread than any other jet.

F-18 (IMO the best all around jet, but not my favorite). It has it all. It is good in the air, and attacking the surface. Doesn't turn that great, and is slower than other jets, but it's missle "dodging" factor is way higher than any other jet, even the J-10. It is steadier than the J-10, but not as much as the JSF. It also has a center-mounted cannon with 600 rounds just like the JSF, but it has bomb spread similar to the J-10. I don't like the feel of this jet, even though it is technically the best jet in the game.

I don't know enough about the MIG to explain it.

That kind of info is available on the forums.

Re: I'm making some jet tutorials. Requests?

i request that you only show bombing, no dogfighting or missile dodging. let everyone learn themself... unless u want more nubs in the j10's and f18's owning it up.

Yeah good point

How about shooting them down with ground weapons tutorial?

Oh wait, I forgot, EA/DICE made it next to impossible to shoot them down to unbalance the game in favour of jet pilots. So that may be a hard one to do. LOL. (sorry just couldn't resist).

So just stick with bombing tutorials.

yea yea save that for the "AA IS TOO WEAK" THREADS nub

Exactly, yes. I'd like to see how you go about doing that. :)

Re: I'm making some jet tutorials. Requests?

Give us the best way to avoid A2A missiles, only thing I can't seem to do, when I fire A2A missiles at someone he just has to move a little to avoid them, but when I'm being chased no matter how hard a turn I do every single missile just hits me with no problem at all.
