In ALL HONESTY, THIS is what would make you a batter pilot....youre not going to get good or get better fighting enemies that have lower experience than you do....its the dogfights that if the enemy is better than you in skill is where you'll learn the most crucial experience....in War Thunder, there's 2 types of players, the ones who quit cuz they get killed by better players or the ones that get fed up w dying and they spend hours learning mechanics and tactics and spend hours watching aircraft videos and interviews on KZbin n shit n watching content creators...pretty sure I've watched EVERY phly daily green fury defyn spitflyer videos on aircraft and have learned tonsssss of information and the pilot interviews Bismark be doing helps me alot understand the plane the guy flew himself....you either quit or you get good....next time you see a good skilled player or a better skilled player than you, just know it took him hours days months and maybe even years to get that good...to get good you gotta put in the work!!!!

[@starfighter1043]

I used to run or be scared of tem killers cuz I wasn't that good w the camera and w out the tracking camera its hard to fly on Xbox, the allies won't trigger the tracking camera so I used to die alot to teamkillers and for the fact ill be damned I'm going to fight a team member right of the runway going 200kmh lol just kill me and I'll get in another game....now I'm not really scared of em I kinda date yall to do that dumb shit now lol I live for that shit now lmao if I see an ally messing w another ally I'll 3rd party them real quick!!!!
