Capitalizing On Mistakes - Bf 110 G-2

[@adamfandel1766]

got a model kit of G-2 for Christmas when I was a kid, beautiful plane, it still sits on the shelve unpainted... maybe the time has come

[@capitantilapia]

@@SwissCowboy87 you have a point. But I do think Defyn gets more "good scenes" with bad planes than we do with the good ones. Guy is a legend.

[@dusk6159]

@@capitantilapia Woah woah, this is KZbin, War Thunder and a videogame to begin with. Nothing deserves to be called legend here. But Defyn and others are definitely better creators than the usual stuff mainly because they don't sell bs. I'm not even caring for how much they're better on the game itself too (but Defyn will usually be the better player too).

[@capitantilapia]

@@dusk6159 I don't know what "legend" mean for you, but, for me, it means a person very good at something, in this context. Of course, I'm being hyperbolic, he's not the hero of a legend, no bard sings his name. But I hope you understand what I'm trying to say.

[@RandomSwede-1]

Defyn has an avarage K/D at 8,6 and a winratio just below 80%. Just a tad bit better than decent lol.

[@goringbutslim4591]

Historically, the Bf 110 was actually an effective heavy fighter when flying air superiority missions. When they were used as bomber escorts, they struggled to properly engage attacking enemy fighters as they were maintaining close proximity to the bombers. However, when they were “let loose,” pilots noted that the Bf 110 handled better than even the Bf 109 in some aspects.

[@rauss_]

It was also a good night fighter, I think it was used in this role until the end of ww2

[@_MrBlack]

Of course gaijins dont think so

[@Xiphactinus]

Ok

[@goringbutslim4591]

@@_MrBlack As DEFYN demonstrates in the video, it’s a capable aircraft in the right hands, though it does require correct positioning. Ash has also noted in his video on the Bf 110 that it can be effective in fomenting chaos early in the match by flying directly into the enemy fighter formation as they’re climbing, shooting down one or two, then diving out and returning to your team to reset.

My first ace was in a 110 G-2, a time of celebration as a joystick pilot. I never used the gun pods though, turns it in to a total brick, and 2x 20mm plus 2x 30mm are enough.

[@humzaakhtar9208]

Disagree, gunpods don't really add too much weight considering the plane is pretty chonky to begin with, and let's face it, 4 20mms is fun

Heavy fighters/Interceptors are just in general slept on in Air RB. The 110s and the 410s are pretty solid for BnZ and the early 110s have surprisingly good turn rate.

[@shrekrecker]

that spitfire actually playing the game and not being a bot was a nice change of pace, id definitely enjoy watching you fight more experienced players instead of common riff raff rb match players. 👍

[@dusk6159]

I actually respect more normal players doing their stuff and with whatever fighter, bomber or strike aircraft instead of dudes UFOing their Spitfires or scum like squadded up tryhards with top planes.

[@_GODSFIGHTER]

I do agree it is a problem when your flying against a p38 or an op xp50; that and the terrible compression. When or if you don't fight against them, this plane is a joy to fly. Glad defyn here made a vid on it

[@disclaimer4211]

the bf110 g2 is like a ww2 a10 for Germany, except it could do a bit of strike fighting. The 30 mm's are amazing on this thing and this plane is also amazing in naval battles because if you use the 1000 pound bombs you also get the 30 mm's and 20mm's, and you can do a bit of dogfighting and bomber hunting mid-match as well with how fast you are. The guns for the tail gunners are like mini Gatling guns if you can aim well as well. Not a bad plane but not a banging good plane either depending on your circumstance. One thing is for certain however, this thing is a head-on monster and great for bomber hunting

[@willnoy8611]

[@gliderfs621]

Very impressive stuff and skills as usual, bravo DEFYN ! Will you make a video about the Ki-83 ? This thing seems to be a real rocket and a very good challenger for the Hornet (for which you make already 3 videos)

[@DEFYN]

Yes, soon

[@gliderfs621]

@@DEFYN Okayyy great !! I am eager to know your thoughts about Ki83 and to see you doing crazy stunts with it 😁

[@kingghidorah8106]

I'm trying to full the Ki83 and it's a pain in the ass while stock. It certainly can somewhat dogfight but has some odd compression past 670kmh. I still prefer it a lot over the J5N1, that thing snaps the wings with no warning

[@soapghostroach]

@@kingghidorah8106 You have to get into space with the Ki-83 and always reclimb after a fight. You don't want to dogfight more than necessary. You should be above the enemies when you enter the battle and boom and zoom. This should be possible even stock and the playstyle doesn't change, the plane just becomes more forgiving.

[@kingghidorah8106]

@@soapghostroach yes it's a very forgiving plane, even with 50% prop pitch it still does decent for those times I forget to toggle pitch when using MEC. It is a great plane and very easy to aim, but if you get a BI on your ass you're screwed

[@CmdrKuack]

You’re an absolute legend, Defyn. I really enjoyed it, though it would be appreciated if you used your rear gunner more in situations like this 15:20

[@blaster829]

Interesting... So when flying a heavy fighter: - preserve energy as much as you can - Head on engagements - and don't focus on a single target for too long Am I missing something?

[@dyerleader]

Don’t face someone who knows what to do

[@pandoranbias1622]

Most pilots also don't know how to respond if you can get behind them. Heavy fighters are pretty rare for air superiority and don't get much play in general.

[@oldman1466]

I always use the Bf 110 as a heavy fighter. It's its intentional role and you can feel it.

What Defyn said at 1:03 is the same thing the israelis thought about. They then clipped the wingtips off.

it's pretty ass cheeks not gonna lie. I might take it out in the future but I am pretty low on motivation to play right now. Glad to hear these videos made you enjoy the game more though :)

[@NOOBSLAYER-cw3gd]

i usually use this and the G4 for bomber killing tasks and dogfighting when bored

[@boingo301]

can you make another video on the I-225? given that shvaks are much better now it could be interesting.

[@booferzz]

G2 is actually fantastic, I constantly put rate fight a f4u, which isn’t an accomplishment, but since American pilots are so awful, and they are consistently your enemy. It has to be noted, against its competition. I say this from experience, it’s one of my highest k/d and highest win rate aircraft in the game, I’ve put countless hours into it, and it yields consistent results, for me. I might know how to fly the plane from experience, but it was a match made perfectly since the first flight. Again, I know MANY people who adore this thing, but I know some might not find much luck. If you haven’t yet, try the plane, you might find a new favourite ;)

Astounding gamin as always also what's your opinion on the J5N1? In my opinion that's the most disciplined plane I've ever played

[@jordangames2560]

Played this thing like a fighter a bit ago when I got tired of Sabre 8.3. Coincidence? Although I mostly used it as a boom and zoom against low altitude fighters and yeah the compression is horrendous

[@rudyvasquez9343]

DEFYN it’s me again, okay so the A6M’s I’m having trouble with them. Everytime I play against them I absolutely can’t do anything. I’m currently running a P-63A10 KingCobra. They climb better than me, they’re more maneuverable than me and I can’t outrun them in a dive. I’ll be going over 500 kp/h and they will be right on my six. Any solutions you might be able to think of? Lol other than just avoid them cuz I can’t do that forever. I think there guns aren’t that great but neither is my aim 😂 also like to mention that I side climb most games. Great videos btw! The bf110 is a flying tank! 😂

Thoughts on the BR and missile changes???

[@kingghidorah8106]

They're more or less good because it's switching from mach 1.3 10g to mach 2.5 13G, still agreeable unless you're a Soviet made vehicle from 10.7 and below, since despite these had more missile options in real life for some reason war thunder only has R3S ans R60. Which means that MiG21 FM and SMT have still the R3S. MiG19 will still be fucked from 9.7 and above, the thing should go to 10.3 with two AIM9p and a flare blister to be competent while still not being absurd below 9.7 MiG19 is still fucked.
