Well done. It's a shame that bomber pilots can't seem to figure out that Air RB is PvP first and foremost. You go into that mode, people are gonna shoot you. Either shoot back, or accept that you WILL be shot down. I will say that as the event has died down, I've actually noticed a decrease in bomber spam on Allied teams, and an increase in the quality of fighter pilots. They're climbing and sticking together, now! That's probably the best side-effect of the cannon buff-bomber pilots seem to be fleeing Air RB.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

I think the decrease in Allied bombers is due to the fact that Allied bombers can't unload their bombs anymore, and so only the good fighter pilots continue to fly Allies, propping up the Allied war effort.

I realized real quick that doing the tasks in RB in anything but a jet bomber was totally impractical. I did the tasks doing 7.0-7.3 Arcade games in a Lancaster. The games were low populated enough so that the chance of someone going high to intercept was reduced (still got shot down a ton of times though), and the refilling bombs along with hyper-durable bases was essential for getting the tonnage needed to fulfill the task (relatively) quickly.

Air Raid The fact that you have no chances with bombers is no excuse for being a douchebag though. And that is if they had no chances. They actually do, especially planes like the Tu-4 and of course the B-29, their chances may not be high, but they can hurt you if you don't do things right, and even if you do there's that slim chance that you can get set on fire or some shit, as is proven at the end of Adam's video when he was approaching that bomber from 10 o'clock and above which is an excellent angle with very little chances to get hit, yet he still suffered heavy damage.

[@vietnamabc2290]

@@vietnamabc2290 can you still play gunship eith bombers these days? I spammed bombers in arcade (climb to space and reload in the air =" fun") and none of my bombers topk more than 2 hits of anything bigger than 13mm. A B17 battleship fight ended in 10s when we both went down in flames. Bombers are at an all time low right now. I actually would like to see at least a survivability buff to those poor things. They will cost a lot but I want my battleship fights back! And if buffing is too much for the game balance then they could just lower the altitude ceiling for bombers. Having sucess in a bomber would be still impossible then.

[@dr.michaelr.foreman2170]

100% prop pitch in a steep dive like that in your video, in a real plane, would cause the RPMs to soar, and thus, your engine to blow up. I always drop my prop pitch right back to 40% in a steep dive. In IL2 Sturmovik, I have actually had engines blow up in a steep dive with 100% prop pitch. But I guess Gaijin isn't all that worried about reality only cheating for their friends.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

6:23 What does Supercharger Gear mean? this is the first time ever seeing this in game.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Oh damn you're missing out on some of what WT offers! It's part of Manual Engine Controls (MEC). By default the game handles MEC, but you can take control of the engine yourself for a bit of extra performance if you know what you're doing. A supercharger spins to compress the air before feeding it to the engine in order to burn more fuel to produce more power. As the altitude increases, pressure (air density) reduces and the supercharger doesn't spin fast enough to fully compress the air, so on most aircraft you can switch supercharger gears to increase the supercharger speed to compress the air more at a higher altitude. The game handles this by default if you don't enable MEC.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

There's a bunch of other MEC settings other than supercharger gears, you need to learn all of them to be able to use MEC effectively. You can see me mess with prop pitch and radiators in this match. German aircraft automatically handle the supercharger system even when on MEC, so you wouldn't be able to manually switch gears on them. They still do have superchargers though. If you're asking which aircraft you'll face that have superchargers, answer is all of them except P47s, P38s, and F82 (they have turbochargers). There are tutorials on KZbin that explain how to set up MEC. But, it's a distraction unless you are already a good player.

But remember fellow pilots a good bomber gunner can punch through 60-100+ mm armor of bulletproof glass with a 7.7 or 13mm from 1.35km :D so listen to Adam and fly safe and smart.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Lol I just ignore them until they are the last ones left, not worth my time.

[@actsu7589]

we want a7m2 ufo then :D

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

That's more like it!

[@johnathanburke4872]

Fire hazard lol notes to remember about Japan: planes in soaked petrol before every flight, pilots are expendable (no armor), the planes are lighter the average American, and finally 50. Cal bad like fire and fire bad!

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Yeah.

[@jordani.5926]

You can't put all of the blame on bomber pilots seeing that gaijin made them utterly useless on 50% of air rb maps. Some people just want to fly bombers and be able to contribute to their team but i dont think that could ever be possible

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

I put the blame on them for flying useless aircraft. I blame Gaijin for making bombing useless. I can blame more than 1 person when there's more than 1 issue ;).

[@davidpark9462]

Yep the Ki-83 is the best twin engined Japanese fighter. The rest of the planes in that tech tree are unremarkable, at best.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

The rest of the twin engined fighters right?

[@davidpark9462]

Yeah. I wouldn't fly the rest of the Japanese twin fighters in a dogfight. I do own a Ki-96 (premium) too, but even that one doesn't work for me.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Had success with the Ki45 (very low tier), but that's probably due to enemies not really knowing how to fly.

[@mugenstein]

People with K/D ratio less than 0.5 should be denied the ability to chat in this game...

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Meh, chat is often amusing.

[@Talguy21]

K/D doesn't correlate with behavior. You could have the super casual guy who gets 0.1 kills a match and still laughs it up and has fun, talks nice with his team. Or you could have the dude who gets a double ace every game but does nothing but flame their teammates for 'sucking'. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[@Josstuka]

it's nice to finally see some Air RB gameplay on KZbin again

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Yeah by a decent amount.

[@s.a.f.r.a6403]

Every time I watch this video I laugh at the B-29 pilots rage

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Good!

[@Abby_Normal_1969]

The Ki 83 is a bit of a glass cannon. But if you don't get hit...doesn't matter if you are made of glass.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

As long as the fuel tanks aren't hit it's fine, but fires happen often.

[@tonnyblake21]

Epic word-fight. Adam calls bombers useless even after they destroyed 90% of field and get ready for their last winning run... but then he kicks them out of game. That's like closing the ice cream truck just before late fat kids get to it. Well, have not seen more fun in WT.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Lmao accurate!

Adam, do u think u could make a vid to explain ur manual controls and what they will do if used? I was flying Sim really often, but that was years ago as it was called frb. Lots changed since then and I'm rusty now :P

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Yeah I'll do a video on MEC eventually.

[@TheRealRusskye]

You shoot down the bombers like nothing. Really good approach. I think that the main issue is that bombers need the escort fighters but the most of WT players dont do that. I always escort my bombers and its very good games at that.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Thanks! What does escorting do? Bombers can't really win the match for you, so why go out of your way to protect them? In fact, they are most useful if they actually die to enemy fire, since they waste ammo and alt and time to kill essentially useless planes.

[@TheRealRusskye]

@@AdamTheEnginerd hehehe in fact. But bombers work like easy prey (theoretically). So its easy to shoot down fighters who try the easy price going to attack bombers. In the most of cases they are caught by surprise when the escort fighters come. In best scenario a bombers formation could wipe out the bases and the enemy airbase. I already saw that happen. In this case, is a win by bombers. Its a very good game to team work but the most of players work in lone wolf strategy.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

It's more like bad pilots consumed by greed that go for bombers first. Those types of pilots aren't the ones you should be worried about. It happens, but it's extremely rare.

[@TheRealRusskye]

@@AdamTheEnginerd Yeah you are right. But its fun play escort. Very immersive for me the need to protect. But you are right. Playing for the fuck objective, bombers are useless. Just for Fun.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Hmm I suppose.

[@sebastianilabaca3295]

drooling over that climbrate tho. 20° with 100% radiators, over 300 kph? No problemo. Great match mate. Cheers!

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Yeah easily over 300km/h. Thanks mate!

[@omarb10legends99]

Jesus people complain about bomber pilots in this gamw when they don't have it easy. "Why is he playing an expensive bomber" I don't know maybe he wants to enjoy his plane. Its easy to call any bomber pilot salty when your flying a Japanese interceptor.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Remember, they chose to fly it.

[@ima_fish6892]

I can see where they were coming from I have being using the tu-4 like the cancer I am lol to do the event but damn that's a whole new level of salt coming from these guys

God when that guy said “reported” irked me so bad. They willingly bring the most expensive plane in the game into a match and then have the audacity to get mad when they get killed.

Yup, people work in mysterious ways.

[@Fiodor0]

The Chat salt is gold. But that base camping ising nice tho.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Base camping? When I was trying to finish the game? Why? Their best chance is when they are close to their af anyway lol.

[@appa609]

The way matchmaking works means that whether you play bomber or fighter, the composition of your team is about the same either way. So there's not much individual contribution to winning. If you really want to get a fancy jet and you don't have premium you probably do need to grind with bombers.

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

Not really, since some nations field way less bombers and attackers than others, so there's a decent difference.

[@KruddyKamiKaze]

if u want even ballistics, get tracer 20mm and stealth 30mm otherwise set light smaller guns to lmb and heavy canons to rmb

[@AdamTheEnginerd]

I mostly shoot from close range anyway, it wouldn't be that useful for me to bind those keys.
