I always found it ridiculous that you get NO points if a plane that you damaged crashes.. In my opinion, if you put loads of damage into a plane to the point that it's on fire or smoking and then it crashes, you should get "vehicle destroyed" and even a kill if the pilot is still in it. It's so unfair when you do all that damage and then you get those coward players who ram their plane into the ground when they know they've lost the dogfight so you don't get the kill or destroyed points

[@StickyIckyOOHWAY]

hey Nic, rather than replacing two of your main guns with the 20mm, try taking the armored fuselage, and then going full right spec. that way you keep the original 4 primary weapons that fire from the nose, and its much easier to hit targets, both planes and infantry, and you have more DPS. the 20mm are too hard to use, and not that strong to justify picking them. the only problem with this build path is that you lose the radar, but you can do without it. see if it works for you ;) it did for me. (by the way, i was very sceptical of buying bfv at first, but by watching your videos i got jealous and really wanted to fly in this game, so in a way, you made me buy bfv :P ) cheers

[@Orion-kj2mu]

[@dielectricuniverse4076]

You are so right. The physics for the Bf109 in this game is way off. They were known to be flown straight at high speed - at high altitude - and then would swoop down and engage the enemy with a burst of fire on one pass and then head back up to the higher altitudes. This way they had distance and speed on their side. They couldn't afford to get into a dogfight, they'd lose. The only country that produced planes that could outmaneuver the Spitfire was Japan. But they were practically made of paper and could get shot down way too easy. Everything changed once the P-51 Mustang entered the war.

[@seriousgameing]

the earlier versions of the 109 outperformed the spitfire in almost everyway including turning. i dont play this game so dont know if the e series of 109 is in the game but those would be capable. the later versions like the g2 in this one were a bit faster but would be outturned. alot of people think the spitfire was slow tho but it was actually very fast

[@lucasbrooks5177]

@@lucasbrooks5177 Outperformed in every way? 109 was still faster at alt, had the better climb and better dive.

At this point in the pilot meta, the g6 is just kind of terrible as opposed to the g2, even air to ground wise. Once you master the g2 main gun, you can very accurately mow down infantry, while not sacrificing your air to air power. Also, the rockets are great for countering the stall tactics currently prevalent in the dogfights.

this is personally one of my favorite planes in the game, I use the 20mm just before ROF slows due to over heating and then i switch to the machine gun or the secondary gun ASAP, and use it until its about to over heat and switch back to the 20mm, which is usually cooled down again. keeping a continuous line of fire that just doesn't stop makes TTK so quick opposed to letting the first gun over heat or slow down before switching. Missiles + continuous line of fire takes a bomber down in 2-3 seconds flat, and gives cowardly pilots who crash their plane upon engagement less time to crash.

Hey Niccaman, I love your flying videos. I just wanted to add my two cents regarding the G2. It’s become my favourite plane, despite getting just shy of 1000 kills in each the G6 and Spitfire VA. The rockets on the BF109s makes them an absolute dream for shooting down bombers and fighters who tend to bail. In fact, I prefer the G2 with the nose & wing mounted cannons to any other plane. Especially since the G6 got nerfed to oblivion. Anyways, all the best- MarseilleJG57

The main cannon on G2 is the same MG151 20mm cannon that's on the pods as well Irl Spitfires were much superior when it came to dog fighting, and vertical maneuvers and lower stall speed than the 109s Also, you don't need additional physics to execute Boom and Zoom, go high up, find a target and wait for and opportunity and go in a dive, dounce on the target and go back up and repeat, Boom and Zoom is one of the most basic yet effective enough tactics, try to use the sun as well as a way to hide yourself when diving on the target

[@Icebear507]

I use the G2 a lot lately. You should try those rockets against other airplanes. They deal a huge amount of damage compared to the rockets of a spitfire. But the spitfire rockets are better for infantry, especially on fjell. As always: Very nice video. Love to watch them :)

[@ajq3462]

Got shredded by 3 bf109s on mountain map earlier whilst my spitfire teammates would rather bomb ground targets than save me 😭

Nicc, you should try the G2 with the default weapons. They're 4, 7.62mm guns (like the left tree on the g-6) and they're really really good for anti-air and are my favorite to strafe infantry with. On the specializations if you go left you get increased fire rate and then you can go to the right and still get the automatic leading edge and the rockets. It's absolutely my favorite. It almost feels like flying the VA in terms of damage, with better maneuverability, and rockets to snipe camping AA.

If Fw 190 comes into game it's an air to groundforce fighter not air superiority or boom'n zoom. If the Fw 190 Dora comes into the game, this would be the air to air fighter u r lookin for in the german tree. It would have the 20 cals of the g2 and its main gun and rockets, bombs etc. it was one plane of the greatest varieties when it comes down to weaponry fittet to it. Only to mention one, the luftwaffe mounted "flamethrower", if I remember correctly, on the plane to spray an aerosol/fuel in tge sky and set it on fire. That would be cinematic! Imagine a dogfight with a spit on ur 6 ready to set up the kill and u turn his whole screen into a wall of flames.
