This is why I play hardcore. You can set up against attack choppers and they cant 3rd person view or mini map see you. You have much better odds of taking then out.
@@x8reaps Yeah but the ability to read the situation correctly and do the right thing indeed requires skill. I'll definitely make use of your videos so thank you so much.
On my latest scout Heli tutorial video I explain my key bindings there, they are all the default all I did was set mouse scroll button to open the big map, 800 dpi 32% vehicle sens but ur welcome to add me if u like, im very active on discord
I've learnt from this that i spend way too long locking targets with rockets/missiles in the Scout. You hold the lock for prob less than half the time i would have thought i needed to. Amazing skill mate.
Even though I hardly fly, watching your vids is fricken informative. I definitely know to stay the fk away from you and hide whenever you are near. You were recking the other day and I thought I shot you down... Heli went down, no kill... Gutted 😀 Keep up the awesome work
@@x8reaps no I heard your doubts during the video but I felt like everything was informative. It wouldn't be a bad idea to do this on other 'harder' maps, as I think golmud is not easy.
Reaper would you do a button cam? Like one of those recording programs that show a visual of what buttons you're pressing? That could be really helpful for people trying to improve in scout (like me) thanks much love
Do you have experience flying heli with a controller? If so, I wonder what your opinion is about controller vs mouse and keyboard in terms of accuracy. I've transitioned from ps4 to pc and I've been trying both con and mkb lately and I feel like controller feels much more natural because of the subtle inputs you can do, but somehow mouse and keyboard feels easier to snap on targets quickly. Gonna do some more of both to see which one I want to stick to
I play on PC with a PS3 controller, so I also got some input :D its definitely doable, and can be great actually. the only downside is aim. hitting headshots is just a tad bit more difficult, and landing TOWs in the attack chopper is even harder. but in terms of flying, its a lot nicer (imo). so with controller you are more maneuvrable, but less accurate. that seems to be the trade off. I therefore use my better, faster flying to turn the tides of any heli battle my way. its quite easy for me to dominate in any helicopter and out-aim most MnK users. its not impossible. just takes practice :) but, if you had to choose either keyboard or controller? I say keyboard. having to switch from controller to keyboard everytime I go from infantry to heli is quite annoying. mastering MNK is definitely worth it in the long run
@@x8reaps I think the default is a and d, it’s just that for me it feels really ‘floaty’. Like if you tap the button you don’t move at all but if you hold it you keep spinning past where you want to aim. I’ll do what you mentioned in another video and practise in an empty zavod server, that sounds like a solid idea.
@@x8reaps besides I do only have 2 hours of playtime in the heli so my focus at the moment is just playing it more, but the thoughts you shared in this video were definitely helpful.
@@thebulletkin8393 I do have another video, i made a full scout heli tutorial explaining the aiming and everything in timestamps if it does interest you, i explain in depth how i aim it may help you.
@@x8reaps I watched that shortly after watching this video, Definitely helped me get started but now I just need to hunker down and get practising. I have jets, Helis and tanks on my list to master at some point so no doubt it’ll be slow going but I don’t mind the grind
Don't you feel ineffective against armor in a map like this? I prefer to use 25mm especially when the enemy pilot isn't a challenge and when much more time is spend shooting tanks than jets. Maybe it's just a different experience on ps4 in general, For example the switching seats and shooting a smaw thing goes right out the window since you are forced to switch through all the seats. (It's doable but takes like 50% longer with switching & takeoff)
25mm damage towards vehicles is negligible, its so small that its pointless, its better to make a combination of laser guided and smaw seat swapping but as u said console is different.
you are certainly less effective against armor on this map. but you shouldnt equip 25MMs for it imo. as ReaperZ said, the damage they do just isnt enough. the way I get around being inneffective against armor is by just going around killing infantry, and looking for tanks in the meantime. once an enemy tank is in a 1v1 with a teammates tank, I fly by and shoot a quick laser guided at them to turn the tides. basically, I dont go for Tank kills, but rather assists. just see who's fighting who, and assist your teammates on the ground.
@@pixel6173 yeah especially on pc 25mm might not pull it off since effective range between miniguns and 25mm seems to be further apart on mouse & keyboard. But I genuinely think I'm better off with 25mm most of the times, being able to deal with tanks on your own is pretty high up the list to winning a game. But on pc you can quickly switch seats and fire a smaw so I can understand that it might be a good setup. You remain 100% effective in the air with the miniguns Plus you can kill about 4 tanks solo each life. As long as I encounter more than 4 armored vehicles on my own though, I prefer 25mm. Unless the enemy pilot is a challenge & starts engagement before I'm inside of range. (Which happens less than daily)
@@calebpike2580 Nah man I'm a hard PC gamer, at the moment I've been streaming 2042/Overwatch 2 lol, I loved BF4 but I played it for years and Just got bored of it.

Understatement on these guys in sim groups

Really like this type of thoughts explaining videos... need more of these... wish many youtubers made these type of videos as well💯
In many situations in this video I think that you could've done something different but then you explain why you did it and it makes a lot of sense
Its very situational, most of the things i do are plans or assumptions given scenarios, but its very random sometimes.
@@x8reaps Yeah but the ability to read the situation correctly and do the right thing indeed requires skill. I'll definitely make use of your videos so thank you so much.
Really loved that engi who insisted being with you in the little bird. Sounded like a cool dude :D
Adapting to the mobile AA instead of complaining. I like it
Classic
Well you literally can't beat it solo so... what else can you do lol
This is amazing! I love seeing someone so good at something like this and explaining it play-by-play
Real question is how the hell did you get an AH-6 Little Bird in Golmud...
Servers can choose which countries play against each other. It seems to be common that servers have US vs US
This is crazy good, cool to see how you think while flying.
this video single-handedly got me hooked on scout heli flying
im just starting to fly in the little bird. can you do a video on your keybindings and/or add you in battlelog?

@@shaftoe195 heli > gf
how do you have the lil bird in golmund railway, ps4 doesn’t have that
How high is ur vehicle sensitivity compared to normal sensitivity?
This is a very old video man, my updated sens would be in my latest bf4 video available.
Tru but is it ingame sens or mouse sens cus I can get the snappy aim u have
This dude is insane
Best I’ve done was 109k-3d in operation locker. All with medic and support.
Best for vehicle was 89-1 with the attack helicopter.
When I saw this video’s title I was expecting a scout(sniper) gameplay
But I’m not disappointed
Oh yeah I forgot to put "heli" after scout lmao
Do you essentially just use default key bindings?
Yes all i changed was just the middle mouse scroll button to open the big map.
Do you have experience flying heli with a controller? If so, I wonder what your opinion is about controller vs mouse and keyboard in terms of accuracy.

God I wish I could play the scout help as good as you.
You can if you put the work into it.
*furious clicking noises* ah yes.
Why do you switch seats often?
It unspots you
Do you use a and d to yaw? I’m using that as that seems to be most common for people, but I’m not really very good at it.
Whatever the control defaults are is what I use, takes practice to learn full control of it.

Do you have a strategy against skilled jet pilots, they do a boat load of damage at the worst moments
Not much you can do. The jet is a counter. The only thing you can do is use cover.
