Changing viewpoint on jets?

[SecciJustiN]

I know how to change the viewpoints by pressing C, but then some people do it fast like when theyre flying a jet. How do you do that? Like this guy when he drops the bombs

He changes the keys and puts them either on his mouse or joystick. I have mine on my mouse.

Which key is it?

Re: Changing viewpoint on jets?

Well, as I'm sure you know, if you go to the "Options" menu and the "Controls", you can change your key bindings. You'll see the change view button is "C". It's pretty simple to change key bindings, as long as that key isn't being used for something else.

I have the front camera angle (showing what's behind the jet) on the middle mouse key (the scroll thing), and I have the cockpit view on right click. So whenever I bomb I press the middle click right after to see where the bombs land, and then the right click to get back into cockpit view.
I also do this to check if I'm being followed by enemy jets.

Actually, I use the default F keys and can check my views at the same rate shown in the video (on a side note, I'm actually surprised at how little he checks his 6 for enemy fighters)

Also, at 0:47, he's damn lucky he didn't crash into that Black Hawk.

Oh, and you can set specific angles by changing the F9 through F12 keys, rather than having to scroll through them all using C.

Lol... I find this comical.

You can change the view point to make flying jets even more dominating? What a joke. Where are peoples honour.

With a joystick you get more keys to program to your own liking.

Re: Changing viewpoint on jets?

I use the chase cam and it's set to capslock and cockpit view to space. Use mouse and keyboard.

I tried flying with a mouse today before round start...lets just say I spent more time in the water then in the sky.

Re: Changing viewpoint on jets?

If you have a "hat" key on your joystick, life is easy. I use up for cockpit view, down for front camera...the rest don't matter much.

Re: Changing viewpoint on jets?

On my right hand I use, stick, duh, flairs, missiles, bombs, and afterburner.

Left hand I use for camera, cockpit and rear fly by only, and cannon (so when I need cannon + afterburner)

Mousewheel for me.

One direction switches views, the other returns to F9.

I just use C. It's pretty easy to do it when you know how many times you have to press it to change to a sertain view.

Btw that guy in that vid is not a really good pilot.. The F35 was behind him for ages and he didnt even react. He almost got shot down too...

I find this post comical.

Changing camera positions is part of the game. F9, F10, F11, and F12 are the default key to changing camera position when in any vehicle.
