By just turning on (leaving on) the g-force head movement and dialing down the amount of movement, along with tuning sensitivity of head tracking (more on that in a min*), you gain a feel for where your moment of inertia (direction) is... e.i. if you lose sight of the hour-glass thingie, the head throw tells you where it is, you can feel back-strafe, and you can feel a blackout before it hits. *3.23 wiped out some of my settings. It took me days to tune everything before and I have not had the motivation to redo it, so I cannot provide detailed setting info, sorry.
Your comment intrigued me so I thought I'd give it a go. 20% head gforce movement blends well with tobie 5 and isn't too distracting, and %30 gforce afterburner zoom plants you in your seat for some Immersion. It feels pretty good actually. Those numbers are, you could say, just a tier 0 attempt. But yeah, It's not bad.
I also use a smidge on those head movement sliders to get some feedback on what the g forces are doing to my character, I don't want my head flopping around and become a nuisance in vision clarity or a bother to the point that I think my Tobii 5 is broken, just slight nudges to represent what's going on
Badass, we need more vids like this, especially the more complicated sounding settings like “trap access time” etc, hoping a manual is made about these settings as well cuz NO one makes any explaining any of those
Well done AV1! I would like to see more of these training videos! Like you did on your previous video were you explained how to do when you are in a death spin (cutty blue). Give us more videos like you make your aim better, or even different manevers
Even as a veteran player and an avid PvP guy myself, I found much more valuable information here than this video's short format of 6 minutes would suggest. Thank you, AvengerOne for continuously dropping knowledge in a non-nonsense manner! o7 Fly dangerously
Huge thanks for this video. Will be coming back to this later to change these and hone things down. 3.23 has a lot of changes and breaking down the big ones to help maximize effectiveness is really helpful.
A1, would love to see you do a large ship tactics video. Aware multi crew ships are outmatched in terms of maneuverability when compared to fighters. But some engagement and survivability tips would be sick. o7
The hammerhead for instance being that it’s the most common display: Keep fighters 1500 from the hammerhead and try to bait your enemy into the hammerhead. The Reedemer is clearly a support craft. Good at diving into fights to break things up and take down shields. A good ship to stay inside that aforementioned 1500 bubble of the Hammerhead and dive in to help fighters as requested. The Connie sucks.
Thank you very much for your courses, tips, for sharing very useful information. It will be great and I hope you will tell us how to maneuver correctly. How to get close to one or another enemy, for example, a Hammerhead, Cutlass or light fighter. At what moments and how to control speed, boost, some standard initial types of maneuvers. How to run away from a fight. What to focus your attention on in battle with 1 to 1, or group to group.
I actually like Look Ahead Mode a lot. I play with a gamepad and I can toggle padlock mode with my gamepad binding. It’s nice to snap to a target when I turn on padlock, then turn it back off once I’m oriented.
Padlock I can see being very useful if one does not have headtracking but the other look-aheads are IMO just horrible. I strongly recommend headtracking, it will completely change the experience in SC and other sims that support it (most "real" sims do)
Great video. Avenger, can you do one of these for the average pilot rather than the META pilot? For instance, the average pilot might want gravity compensation turned on to limit the amount of variables the average pilot needs to pay attention to. I leave it to your expertise but put yourself in the shoes of the average joe with limited multitasking and skill. I think that would be an amazingly useful video. yes, we should all stive for the skill ceiling but we don't "start" that way.
great tips, thanks god those head-shaking so called cinematic features can be turned off, there is 0 reason to have it on when you want to be focused on a task and not being randombly bouncing around
Well yes, that's why I'm here, I want to help the SC players succeed, despite all the haters, that tell you I'm a troll. Let your own judgment be the compass
@@Avenger__One yeah look - people just mad when they hear things they don’t want to hear. Vanguards are my favourite ship (mostly warden)- but you said it sucks right now - and it kinda does, in a group I really do some big damage and end people, but if I get isolated, I am screwwwwwed. Whereas before I could out play constant numbers of people whilst playing the ol “come fight the CS5” with the whole server. But it’s just the reality. A devastating one. It’s your fault. How dare you say that.
@@Avenger__One PS. Fk the haters. Everyone clearly copying you anyway. You know how many buccaneers I see right now? Every other ship. If it’s not a C2 because everyone’s trading or an F7A or Mk2. It’s a Buccy.
What is the correct setting to get the Pips to converge? You mention Auto gimbal but they've gone, did you mean the "manual convergence distance - reset" setting? - sorry to appear dim Great video!!
Hey man, I love your videos about teaching us how to play fighters, can I ask for a video about weapons ? And which are ok or bad ? Cause I’m a bit lost on that..
Yeah he didn't cover what was hotkeyed in the beginning of the video. I think it might be PIP Combination Type Toggle? Would love to get a confirmation if that's what he's using.
Awesome stuff. Can you help with some insight on PVE bounty ship suggestions? We talked about that in the tier list vid. Really trying to decide what I will buy to do ERT missions as the buccaneer is quite glass cannon for that. Not sure if Corsair/Taurus tank/firepower is the way to go, or if some of the fighters actually get the job done well.
You can use almost all ships vs erts as long as you can fly away, especially on low fps servers. As long as you don’t fly directly into them, the speed and maneuverability of light/medium fighters/haulers will do the job.
@@Avenger__One nice, seems like a good fighter overall so I might get one either way. But as 17trunX asked, if you can give one more suggestion that is not to get patched and maybe has some cargo, that would be great. Thanks for the help.
@@bolle1929 sure thing, but the question is on efficiency really, like he did for the tier list and pvp. You can use any B-tier or C-tier ship in PVP and do ok, but that doesnt change the fact that a Bucc will be best in PVP overall. Then the question is for PVE and more specifically VHRT and ERT bounties, which means fighting against 6 ships at the same time. Hornet MK II was already suggested and looks good as a general fighter, but something with cargo could make sense and also it is bugged right now.
2:31 It's unclear what you're toggling here. You mention automatic gimbal but the bottom right gimbal UI stays in Lock. Is this another setting? Is it PIP Combination Type Toggle? You don't highlight what you set in the preceeding segment at 1:50 if that's the one. There isn't anything called Auto Convergence Toggle. Thanks for checking!
So, I don't see his pips clearly cause I'm on mobile. However, I believe he is referencing when you have multiple weapons on a ship, you'll sometimes see multiple pips indicating where each weapon needs to be fired to hit. I assume he's saying you can toggle auto convergence(making the pips all meet).
@@Iautocorrect the questions multiple people are asking in the comments is: What is the name of the setting for the auto converging PIPs? There is NOT a setting called "Auto Convergence Toogle" like he's claimed in other replies. He skipped showing us the item in the keybinding menu section of the video and went straight to demonstrating it in the cockpit without realizing he left it out earlier in the video. We're hoping he can double check and tell us the actual name of the setting to bind.
Hi AVG1 ! Big fan of your videos that helped me to progress on dogfight ! Have you the possibility to make a video about dodging or escape manoeuvre ? I've lot of problem to avoir early death in squadron battle.. Thanks !
Dear Space Mommies and Daddies. Grav Comp is there specifically for us, we're not 18 year old hot shot combat pilots, we're just tired and cant be bothered to remember to toggle 20 different things depending on ur current functionality requirements. LEAVE UR GRAV COMPS ON OLD PEOPLE, YOU WILL KILL URSELF AND LOSE UR CARGOS! Cmon, u know ur running salvage/mining anyway, stop tryna be cool. lol
I feel like I’m watching a different game, when I put my crosshair on the pip. It often slips off target very quickly. Is this because of the angle and speed you are approaching the target?
I don't get the precision lines yet.. It sounds to me like error bars for the spread or w/e, but I guess that's not it.. What does it have to do with roll? Is it what angle the visually longest axis of the enemy ship is oriented on? But that wouldn't match with the Gladius in the vid.. So.. could you give more detail please? Thanks (or someone else)

The worst part about all the shaking is that you don't experience shaking in real life like that. Your eyes/brain have some "auto-stabilize" features that even out the movement. Otherwise all those years of diet bikes and atvs would have been impossible to see while jumping, going over whoops, etc
Not that I know, but you can check the status if you're in atmo if it's off your ship should slowly fall into the ground, if it's on nothing will happen. All this in decouple mode.
Im new to flying and i swear to god while doing lrts the npcs will just fly at me full speed and ram me as soon as i get to them 😅 or maybe i just really suck at flying lol
how can i switch between multiple pips and one single pip? i dont get it. you say its the auto gimbal mode, but i always have multiple pips no matter if gimbal is on or off. what do i need to map? i dont think you show it in your video?
I think they should get rid of GForce induced head movement and any other settings like that which give a blatant gameplay advantage. I understand it might be there for accessibility reasons but making it so there’s no effect from Gs to your head movement is completely unrealistic.
Thanks. All these changes and CIG relies on you to describe them. You should send them a bill, then start billing them regularly for consulting until they listen to someone who can make the game more fun and less micro-intensive.

Corsair. Not large but definitely larger than the meta stuff, try it out and let me know. Personally it’s AMAZING this patch.
A1 only fly max range ships, you know ships you can run in when you find a better opponent. Its kind of cheese but its how pvp works in alot of games.
Love the info on precision lines, really useful thanks.
Thank you for doing this , it made a big difference for me . I can actually stay on target and hit it now . 😄
I found the Target Lookahead quite useful as I don't use a head/eye tracker. You just have to tweak it right so it doesn't distract you
