The new time limit PLUS all the ticket bleed from groundpounders really limits the amount of fun or solo play carries that can happen in air rb now. its kinda sad :(

[@michaelvigil5321]

It shows just how much gaijin employees dont play air RB let alone air, let alone RB.😂

[@eugenechurch6135]

Absolutley

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Yup, did the other team really kill enough ground targets to deserve to win this quickly by tickets?

[@1rb1s_]

Yeah, carried today with 4 frags in D-13 (it was 6v6 match and other two dudes crashed while ground pounding), but got a loss cuz our tickets ran out before the game started bleeding enemies tickets for losing all their planes. And this was a game with 150% booster. I have never gotten Gaijined so hard) I think that with this time limits and with this amount of ticket bleeding due to ground pounders, it would be wise not to substract tickets when one ground unit kills the other one. If course, in this case there will be situations when there's no ground units for one of the teams and it still has tickets, but if one team gets low on ground units due to them killing each other, some reinforcements can show up on either side, so that ground pounders always have units to kill. In this case, you will still have a chance to win, even if you are IL-2 and you are 1v1 vs, say, a 109, and enemy team is low on tickets. But instead of sitting at AF and waiting for time/tickets to run out, you would have to play actively and come up with some sort of plan which would let you get to ground units without being killed. And that would also equalize the situation when there are two pure fighters left 1v1. They would have to engage each other in order to win, while now, if it is a 109 vs a Spitfire and Allies are low on tickets, most 109s will just run until time/tickets run out

Watching your attack runs on the BV238 reminded me of my Yak 9U vs B17 fight a few days ago. Quite satisfying if done properly. Edit: The M.B.162 has Hispano 404's with a moderate cone of fire to the rear, very inaccurate and small mags but good effect on target if you hit. It's one of the fastest climbing and most pleasant bombers to fly, like a 264 with the fat trimmed off.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Yeah, though it sits at the weakest BR for US teams. Makes for generally fun games.

[@ege5804]

That guy had no idea how to properly fly a BF109 to change the course of action. He had a lot of energy but he preferred to waste it away by keeping his nose down after his short dive for hunt which gave you a brief window for a shot opportunity. If i were him, i would go for a 45-60 degree climb, maintain my altitude until i gain a BNZ advantage and hunt you from above. You were at a low altitude with mediocre speed and energy so i doubt you could keep up with a high energy BNZ 109 . In my honest opinion, 109s are the most powerful when they are in experienced hands but they can also be the quite opposite when you fly them like a Spitfire. Amazing video by the way, you surely are a skilled pilot.

Kinda crazy that this thing is at 4.3 when it's just a straight upgrade over the other P-51Ds. The D-30 literally just gets 3" boost over the D-10 yet sits 0.7 higher. I wish this plane was still sold. I really want to get it. Also at 5:45 when you pull the reversal, if that 109 had gone for a vertical loop what could you have done against it?

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Yeah, given that this is a premium as well, it shouldn't be more than 0.3 away from D30. Hmm I would have followed it up to force him to complete the loop, even though I wouldn't get the shot unless he just went straight up. Then it would have been a looping fight, and eventually I think I'd come out on top.

Je ne sais même pas qu'elles sont les différences entre les 2 :D Jamais vu cette carte en RB mais, vu sa topographie, on pourrait penser que les joueurs voudraient éviter les dogfights à basse altitude (avec toutes ces montagnes) ... et pourtant tout le monde était en train de faire exactement cela dès le début de ce match XD Le pauvre Hellcat (ce brave Hellcat !) qui se fait uptier et qui doit affronter un monstre de vitesse. Le P-36 aurait effectivement peut-être pu distraire le Hellcat et survivre le plus longtemps possible pour gêner un des 2 adversaires et te faciliter la tâche ... mais la plupart des joueurs ne réfléchissent pas vraiment à leur rôle dans une situation donnée (ce qu'ils peuvent faire pour leur équipe), ils sont trop occupés à penser à leur score, à vouloir tout faire tout seul pour faire des points et grind plus vite (greedy simpletons).

Yes extremely different. A snap roll is preformed at moderate speeds by applying full aft stick and full rudder one direction the essentially “J’ing” the stick to that side. The high yo yo is performed by pulling up and essentially rolling to the inside of an opponents turn. Love your videos btw, amazing shot you have!

Have you ever considered flying the F2H? I don’t like jets but you’ve flown all the American props I wanna see, plus I have it researched and I don’t know if it’s worth it

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

I wouldn't recommend it.

[@captdavid160]

What US planes do you consider the best to carry US teams with the usual ground pounders and the matchmaking? BR ranges of 4.0 to 5.7. Also, is Universal your preferred .50cal ammo belt or do you switch between the various belts?

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

F4U4B, P38L, P47D28. I stick to Universal.

[@lelmone6856]

Universal M2 belts feel really weak as of late, quite a few of those bursts would have been kills just a patch or two ago

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Hmm haven't played enough to notice a difference, but some really small bursts led to crits in this match. Seems like variance to me.

[@conorf8091]

Use tracers. API-T is best belt

[@viruspter1dactl]

Yes! They got nerfed I swear I used to dominate with them, then they got nerfed

Just unlocked the Ta 152-H Since your last video on it, it got a BR increase and FM changes (for the worse). Whats your opinion on it now (espacially while taking a look at the redicules repair cost)

Yeah it's now fine at 6.0.

Thanks! Well this is a strong plane though.

[@tianyizhang2205]

Gaijin needs to change that ticket thing somehow, after enemy lost all their planes it should start dropping immediately, I used to lost a game just like this we've killed everyone on their side but it took too long to start the ticket drop.

Yeah for sure, I've lost a dozen of those or so.

When you dodge all those head-ons, is it impossible for enemy to hit you or they are really bad? Also when you go from side to side, is it also impossible to hit you or was that 109 really bad?

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

It's never impossible to hit anyone, but your goal is to make it harder for enemies to hit you. But also missing doesn't make a player really bad. A majority of players are close to average, and that's who you'll typically face in matches.

Hey Adam, how can I fight against p51 as soviets? I feel that I can't fight them in high altitudes, because there they are better at everything, but if I stay low they will boom n zoom and energy fight me until I die. So what should I do?

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Depends on the plane you have, but generally you'll climb and turn better so use that.

[@vitinhoaps]

@@AdamTheEnginerd Yak or La, but generally if I climb a lot with, for example, a yak 3, I will perform way worse at 7000 meters, don't know how to win.

[@chris_hisss]

This map reminds me so much of arcade. Used to use the terrain quite a bit in my arcade days. I actually was grinding up the 109 branch and trying to spade my K-4 in arcade which was super upsetting. lol the disparity is pretty huge there. Did you/do you play arcade? I never could go back once I forced my self to learn rb and sb. Pace is just so quick, and so many things to keep aware of. Nice flying here. Interesting you say it is the best 51? Is that because of its BR mainly? Tech tree only has the D-5 right? I own the D-20 and it is pretty nice, always wished I had grabbed the D-10, always a huge fanboy of the 51's. Oh which brings to mind the C models. Videos on them yet? Will look. Thanks man

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Didn't do much arcade relatively speaking. Yeah best for the BR, just a bit less power than the D30 but it's at 4.3. Not yet, it's on my list!

I think the bvs guns out range the 50cals. Correct if wrong but I’ve been killed because my shots weren’t getting there.

There's the relative speed aspect where you are going towards the shots, so the relative range is lower for him than for you. I'd still say 50 cals outrange what the BV has even from behind.
