    It’s crazy bc it doesn’t matter how high I go,there’s always a bf109 on me. Like I know they started at the airfield, HOW TF DID THEY GET TO 21 thousand feet in like 3 minutes?!

    • @Joseph-2000
      @Joseph-2000  ปีที่แล้ว +6

      BF-109's have incredibly high climb rates. The US fighters climb slower due to them having time to climb as they climb over the english channel and french territories

      BF-109 was primarily designed as high altitude interceptor, so they are equipped for that:)

    Also formation flying helps try it
    The more guns u have on ur attacker the more likely u are to survive
    Saftey in numbers
    Yet ppl forget about this concept called teamwork

    • @Joseph-2000

      Formation flying does help! That is quite uncommon unless you are flying in a squad of bombers. But thats a solid idea!
      I normally play my bombers solo so this guide was more tuned to the average bomber players experience. Hence why i didnt include formation

    I there any point in basebombing anymore?
    The SL gains have been nerfed for it a long time ago, it still gives a nice amount of RP though.
    But RP without SL doesn't worth much, it's better to take out a premium plane that can farm both at the same time, or ground pound or play an SPAA.
    A talismaned SPAA or a premium tank which can consistently shoot down planes is probably the best for this for ground.
    As for planes, most earns a decent amount in RB anyway.
    But basebombing, i just took out a few of the highest tiered US bombers and got less SL by bombing bases than i would have got by playing low tier air arcade with reserve planes.

    • @Joseph-2000
      @Joseph-2000  3 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Basebombing just works the best for bombers as it tends to be consistent. Yes the SL payout is poor but it’s better than charging in bombing ground targets to get even less SL than if you bombed the bases

    • @spangebobb3903
      @spangebobb3903 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@Joseph-2000 I find that if I bomb a base as a b17 I usually get around 1900 - 2500 SL but if I bomb one pillbox or tank I earn around 500 SL, so for me I going to try to start bombing more ground targets because you will eventually earn more SL than the bases.

    • @KriegCommisar
      @KriegCommisar 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Its useful for grinding rp and lets be honest easier to reliably hit if you dont get seal clubbed by a guy who for some reason instantly kills you the moment a bullet hits. Also im a console plebian so take my word with a grain of salt.

    • @joaogomes9405
      @joaogomes9405 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      What else are you going to do with heavy bombers. Ground pounding is suicide and even if you try it the much faster attackers and strike craft just destroy the best targets before you can do anything about it. So now you get to ground pound scraps while every fighter in a 5 mile radius comes gunning for you for the free kill. At least base bombing gets you something and it's safe and reliable, even if it's low rewards.

    • @Joseph-2000
      @Joseph-2000  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      For Turret gunners it’s the same principle as AA guns in ground forces. If you ain’t hitting, lead a little more. And keep going till you hit!

    • @joaogomes9405
      @joaogomes9405 ปีที่แล้ว

      An important thing to do is to aim with the smaller green crosshairs instead of the big white ones. The big ones don't show where your guns are firing at, they show where your guns are trying to traverse towards. The small green ones that show how hot your gun is getting when firing also show where your guns are firing at, and aiming with those usually gets you much better results. Does take a bit of practice to wrangle the turret controls though, and you're best ignoring AI aiming alltogether because they couldn't pour water out of a boot if instructions were at the sole.
