The Swift F.7 SUFFERS! What I think is wrong with the Swift & why? - War Thunder Gameplay

The Supermarine Swift F.7 sits at BR 8.7 and it used to be really competitive! Following the reshuffle of tiers and BRs by Gaijin, I feel that it's not quite as good as it was a few years ago or so. Some of these reasons stem from the poor (2G) air-to-air mssiles and poor turning ability.
These issues weren't really a problem before as it was fast for the BR it was sitting at, but now that it goes up against supersonics (with rediculous AAM) it pretty much suffers for it.
It's still possible to play it effectively, but I find that I suffer more than I enjoy it now though.
If you wan't to see more of this kind of thing, make sure to sub and let me know in the comments!

Great video again Matt. Maybe you can help me. I used to play Warthunder air arcade battles mainly. It's ages since I played. There has been several patches since my last game. Now my problem is this. I use mouse aim to fly the plane and I use the outside view as my default view. But now when I fly a battle, this stupid thing happens. When I get close to an enemy aircraft. I press the mouse button to fire my guns. But as soon as I do that, the stupid view switches to the cockpit view. Another mouse button press, and it switches to the hud view. If I press V to go back to the outside view, I then find my throttle is at bloody zero (mouse wheel is throttle). I have trawled all the through the controls and general settings. But I cannot find any stupid setting to make it do this. This has rendered the game impossible to play for me. Any idea's mate?

[@mattssecondchannel]

That does sound a bit crazy. It sounds as though you might have bound those views to those buttons in the settings on top of the original ones as well. It would be worth going to those settings and resetting them

[@Andy.Gledhill.Models.]

@@mattssecondchannel I think I have solved the problem. Even though it said that my Change View key was set to the default "V" key. Changing it to the "/" key solved the issue. Really strange. I could not see any view controls set to any mouse buttons in my control set ups. Resetting the controls had no effect though. Anyway, its solved now. I can get back to shooting players down lol.

[@mattssecondchannel]

@@Andy.Gledhill.Models. that is strange!

Oh wow! Did not notice that in the edit or otherwise I would have edited it out . . . I guess that highlights some of the playerbase of this game though

[@JUDGEMENTBlRD]

i know i am ridiculously late, but that wasnt the player that blew up matt, it was someone else who im assuming was salty that they got shot down
