BF2S Forums My first jet video

You use joystick?

nice flying
but i suck a planes so that doesnt say anything

Good all round video, extra credit for using a joystick and the f35b :p

but your dogfighting skills were not as good as the rest. you flew around in AA view far too often and had you been flying against skilled pilots they would have gone straight up in dragon valley and you woulda lost them.

But yeah logitech 3d pro calibration is a b!tch to deal with, i havent had any problems (yet) but theres lots of stories about it.

Thanks, yeah I'll work on the AA thing, I was a bit cocky that round because I kept shooting down the same guys, over and over, and they were never above 200 feet, their evasions were hard bank turns (which I could obviously outbank). I definately need to work on dogfighting though, I usually win the J-10 match but I want to get better at the harder matchups in the game. I also need to get alot more consistent with my guns and bombing runs, and I'm only like 1 for 10 trying to gun down attack choppers, if that. So I basically gotta work on everything, I think it just comes down to me needing more airtime. I have about 30 hours online, and maybe 20-30 offline.

Not nearly enough usage of the Fly By view. Complete and utter ignorance for enemy jets: you see some ground targets and completely stop dodging him. All you do to loose enemy jets are capability-based maneauvers. Footage of raping enemy airfields makes me fall asleep.

[/needlessly hard review]

As someone that doesn't fly due to lack of joystick and ridiculously low sensitivity, I was entertained by the video. AC/DC is always a winner with me nice job!

Nice vid, good flying and a great tune selection. +1 for you

Nice work.
I stopped watching the stream halfway through, and pulled the full d/l.
Technical q: what did you use to record, and to edit?

A bit of footage from 2-3 rounds yesterday. Nothing too special, but the musics cool so watch it

streaming: [google]http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-231222001212374085&hl=en[/google]
quality download: http://files.filefront.com/Turkey_Jet1w … einfo.html

Quality sucks on google video, check out the good version from filefront, its only 53MB and they have fast download speeds. If you cant/dont want to download it, check the streaming version at google video. Tell me what you think

I fixed my deadzones, but forgot to set a profile, so they were erased...so that footage was me flying with a waaaay off centered joystick.



edit - spelling, google embed

Hey I remember you your with that gay clan Spec-Ops I was banned from there Dragon Valley server for Stat Padding" Because i killed one of the admins like 5 times in a row with my cobra

My second time seeing this turkey and I still wish i could fly like that PLUS ONE for you!

Watched 1 min off it, having a crappy f35 pilot behind you trying to get a lock on you while you just bomb away and refuel is pretty porn. lol

Yeah in that one case, I knew the pilot had no lock, and the guys on the ground would cap refinery if I didnt bomb them. That jet didnt kill me, I got on his ass after the bombing run, then a helo rammed me before I could kill the jet. If I make another one (doubt it) I'll show some kills against J-10's, I get a bunch on dragon valley, not many people know how to fly on that map. And our server allows carrier rape, so half the time they are on a straight vector for the boat, you just gotta intercept them high and behind, easy kill in the F35 (usually).

edit - I started dropping single bombs recently, kinda took some time off flying for a bit though. I dont like how you need to turn back on tanks half the time to drop a second bomb, but when you kill them with one bomb its obviously worth it because you get one more. It took me a while to realize you need to empty your bomb load before rearming, or it switches you back to regular mode. I was always getting pissed and saying fuck it, using 2 bombs. Now I know..
