Re: Jet evasive techinques for Wake Island

hangers are taller than bridges, so yes.

Re: Jet evasive techinques for Wake Island

my advice : buy a joystick .
I was a rookie before I got a joystick. Now look at my Aviator stats.

What's the point in flying under the bridge? I see people do it all the time when I'm chasing them, and it's never yet worked...I just fly over the bridge. :P

The point is to try and get your pursuer to do the same and throw them off balance, I've flown under bridges and through the tunnen on Kubra damn plenty of times and many of them try and follow me, only to crash.

No more pursuer. :)

Re: Jet evasive techinques for Wake Island

I dunno about you guys, but when I'm in the j10, I'm not afraid of anything. A jet could chase me the whole round...doesn't matter. No need for me to mess around flying under bridges.

Now if only you could say the same about the F35...

Re: Jet evasive techinques for Wake Island

Something I've practiced a time or two in single player, but not really perfected, is doing a loop and making the tail end of the loop take me under / near an obstacle.. crane arm, bridge, whatever. Idea being that I know what I want to do, but the guy following me doesn't. Hopefully the guy will be indecisive and either have to break off or hit the obstacle.. Should work good using the bridges on Wake.

Now a SMART enemy pilot would simply avoid the obstacle as a whole because once your aircraft negotiates and goes through the obstacle, your bogey is in far better position to kill you even before.

Pilots who go through the tunnel in Kubra Dam make me chuckle since I simply need to go over the dam and i'm on his tail again at a better position to hit him.

Re: Jet evasive techinques for Wake Island

The biggest problem with flying under the tunnel in Kubra Dam is that if the guy decides to shoot a couple of missles at you before you get in, and he's following close behind, or even at the same height as you, you're dead because you have to fly straight.

I find that if you a loop (preferably not straight up and down, but angled) and veer off of the loop as some random time then go a different direction from where you were going (and not towards your airfield) they often lose track of you.

I use a mouse. I have gotten really good with it.

If you don't mind my asking, what do you have your aircraft mouse sensitivity, yaw, and pitch factors set to?

Re: Jet evasive techinques for Wake Island

I was playing Wake last night and this "TOP GUN" kept owning me when I was manning the USS ESSEX Phalynx guns. He would fly in below the deck line, pull up bomb and take off. I could not get a "lock on" the plane.

It was really frustrating but a awesome tactic.

If you're in a J-10 you don't need evasive techniques.

I think is spelled Phalanx, but I may be wrong.

Great tactics, same that I use to train, but I don't recomend Bridge/dam stunts due to the same reason as stated before, your in a better position to be shot down.

why is that? will it evade for you?

Exactly.
