I posted this on ATF's website (love killing stompy) so I thought I would post it on yours as well. All commentary is welcome but please remember I'm retired.



Remember to watch in 720p

That switching back and forth to the main map/score screen is something I never do while flying unless. Im flying and I absolutely have to kick/warn someone while flying. Ill hit the tab button quick to get a Player #. I do switch back and forth on all my view shots allot. I can tell any pilot in training to turn up the sound, thats right turn it way up so you can hear enemy planes. You will hear allot of planes before you see them. Changing the sizes of your minnie map Button "n" while orbiting enemy af helps you find when someone gets into a plane. When the plane spawns it shows up on your screen and when enemy gets in it the plane dissapears. Wake isle as axis "zero" is a great map to learn on. Plenty of easy targets.

As a complete noob in a plane, I have to say that my pants are now soiled.

Thank goodness you are retired :P If you weren't, I'd be pounding on your door asking for lessons.



Outstanding video :applaud:

nice video.
Sometimes I try to fly, but it remains to try flying...
Hopefully I will be in your team, ALACARD. :D
I think if not, I have to catch all your bullets and bombs... :blink:

Great video Alacard!

Typically when flying I'd do the same thing, just at a slower rate. I'm surprised you don't use the camera (memory fails me for the name) where your looking behind you more often. I use that view when high up to try and help locate other planes by going into a somewhat stall maneuver if I could hear them below me. Of course that was when I could play with sound and be able to hear my surroundings, nowadays if I dare get in the air I have no clue any plane is around me unless i get lucky and spot it in the view changes.

We should have things like this in a kind of 'Bf1942 Newbie forum' =) (It's a Hint)

I found the video and your flying quite interesting. I fly with almost all the same techniques, but somehow manage to still die by you without giving a challenge whatsoever :P. I do the same thing with the map and use the same view changing techniques. I was unaware of why you haven't increased the transparency of the mini map so its easier to see ground when open, but I'm sure you have your reasons, hehe. Great video !
