these are some things i do while in a jet.. they normally keep me alive and rack up points.
What i do, if someone is chasing me, i do EVERY evading technique i know (providing this guy is actually a good pilot and can keep up with me.) i first do hard left/right turn, then do maybe a backflip and then spin at the top of it, so i am facing the ground, afterburner towards the ground, pull up HARD so i am going straight up, do a spiral motion straight upwards (so you arent going straight.. so he cant kill you) and try to get REALLY high (i mean like 1500+ ft.)....BUT, during that whole duration, make sure you are in the middle of the map, and heading straight upwards so you dont fly out of bounds. NOW....once you lose control..... IMMEDIATELY..shut the engines off. wait until you get down to about 800ft to take back off.
now, by this time, the other guy either lost control... and died...or he got back down and figured he would just leave because you are a waste of time. if he is still around, make sure not to use any afterburner. when you see him... nail the afterburners and get on his ass...and by get on his ass... i mean it (like 5ft-10ft away), and stay in bombing mode. now (do this really fast), switch to air to air missles, and fire a burst of 3-4 missles...and bam... he is dead. but when you are following him, make sure he is going straight, and looks like he will keep going straight. (best time is when he is bombing a target.)
i know i sound crazy going through this much trouble to kill a plane, but if you are like me, you would rather waste a min. of time, then have to die, and try to get the jet again. (all of this occurs in about a min.... so it isnt that long.)
as for the cannons, these are WAY underrated (for people that arent that great in jets... they think they suck). these things can take out a tank in about 4 seconds, a heli in 4 seconds (unless you hit the cockpit, then its 1 sec.), you kill a car in 1 sec, and you kill AA and boats on contact (basically instant).
another awesome things with jets (you need to have REALLY good judgement of the plane, and have alot of experience to pull this off), is plane swooping i guess you would call it. the best place to do this is on carriers and airfields. know the common waiting places for vehicles (wake would be the jet and attack heli) and get as close to the ground as possible, and road kill everyone. you have no idea how effective this is if you dont crash. you dont waste any ammo, and you get like 5 kills on every swoop... people will do anything for their vehicles.... even if it means standing still tapping E, watching you fly at them.... and they keep tapping E...and then BAM... you get a bunch of kills... and the idiots are whores.... so they go back and do the same thing.
bombs are self explanitory... just get some experience with them and you will eventually learn to use them. one thing, if you have a joystick that has a hat on it, make the top position be the cockpit view, down switch fire modes, right looks behind, and left is 3rd person. this is an awesome configuration. ALWAYS look behind after you drop bombs when you are learning, so you can improve.
the thing i do MOST OF THE TIME, fly around in bomb mode, and wait for the little green square targets to come up. when you see one, start opening up fire in the dead center of that square (with the cannons) and make sure you dont "spray" but AIM, and you will get a kill.....maybe more than one. sometimes you have to keep the firing going until you about 10-20ft from the object, but hey, that is the most common time the final kill actually occurs.
the time to spray, is when you go up to around 500 ft, coming down on an approx. 20-30 degree angle downwards, just SPRAY (shoot very randomly in a general direction) at an enemy base that you can predict has alot of enemies. you normally get at least one kill every time you attempt this.
now... i know most of this stuff sounds easy, but in the game when it comes down to it, it is very hard to actually apply all of this to an actual game because there are a million things going on at once. but if you eliminate all enemy jets in your area and stay alive and follow my tips, and you arent a complete idiot... you are almost guaranteed a gold medal. good luck.
