Eddiquette Tv that’s what happens when you dogfight people who know what they are doing. It becomes a waiting game until your opponent makes a mistake.
I know that this is a 4yr old video but another tactic I have found that helps in a dog fight is to pull the Tom Cruise Top Gun move of hitting the brakes and letting the enemy flying right by you
It's 2021 and after watching dozens of more recent War Thunder tips videos, this is the first one to explicitly make me realize the importance of rudders and how to utilize them
Of course you can "fly like a pro" in arcade mode for arcade standards. You have different standards in arcade, realistic and simulator and of course there are different pro tips for every single mode. I don't understand the guys who say that there are no pro tips in arcade... Yes it is easier to be an ok player in arcade but there are techniques to make you a great player if you master them. Its not just point the mouse on one direction and shoot. Krebs, thx for the tips man it helped me a lot since i have good skills / knowledge about armored warfare but lacked those in plane fights.
exactly .. each mode is different and has different challenges ... iv tried them all and i simply find arcade harder and more of a challenge .. the number of enemys and respawns keeps it frantic and fun .. and you really need to watch from every angle all the time .. simply saying its for noobs is kinda dumb iv seen many youtubers go back to arcade after playing RB for months and say in there stream omg this shit is hard ... they have to get used to it again .. why ?? ... because its freaking crazy fast and furious and everything works a little different ...
I just started playing not to long ago and this video really helped. I was wondering how the enemy was always getting the advantage on me. Thanks for the video!
For pilots who are in 2020 onwards, after clicking the control setup wizard, click on "keyboard and mouse only (advanced)" not "keyboard and mouse only (simple)"; the controls in advanced are the ones shown in this video. Happy air battles! :)
This is giving me actual tips instead of just giving me useless tips. Thanks bro, this will help me on war thunder since I only have 5 hours of play time.
My controls are much different that yours. I haven’t changed them at all from what it was when I downloaded the game, but this’ll take some time to get used to.
This is great and all but my tactical maneuver that has served me well is to fly in a straight line. Your enemy will be confused (hopefully) and will not shoot you down giving you the chance to get the kill. Short. Sweet. Simple.
Thank you, Krebs! I've always wondered what I was doing wrong with some of the really maneuverable planes. Now I know. Oh, wait. I'm not supposed to say that. I'm supposed to say "Enemy plane OP! Pls nerf!"
lol, when around 16:00 when the turning continues to go on, my heart starting beating a little faster. I guess my body thought i was in the battle of something xD.
Super helpful to watch this as an air battle newbie, after trying to rap my head around so many keyboard guides on the forums & reddit! Idk how you did that live keyboard interface in your video but it was so good. Thanks man!
The best way to turn is to use the Immelmann. You just loop up and level out with the elevators and rudder on your new heading. Just turning horizontally is going to get you slow which will also get you killed.
The Immelmann turn is a great maneuver only if you've got energy to spare during ACM. It happens to be my namesake because I may or may not be known to miss a few targets on a bombing run.
@@immelmannace4067 Indeed, and you have to have a plane that can loop, the P-47 for example is not a good plane to try loops in. I did once win a fight by dropping landing flaps and using all the wep I had but it doesn't work if you have more than one enemy...
In ground rb, hostile planes don’t have name tags. So if you’re like me, and can’t track them with your eyes for the life of you, use your headphones. And if you’re in a fighter with bombs, and you need to clear the skies first, drop them and engage flaps. Also, especially if you’re in something like a 109, try and have an energy advantage. Also if you’re in danger, you can fly over spaa to bait them, or fly back to the air strip if you’re in a log of trouble.
i incorperated all theese techniuces before i say this vid i don't use the jest's even though i have them this works so well. and matthew i can't tell you how many times that one manouver has saved me
I transferred the keys from a computer's keyboard to a stand-alone 10 key pad. That way I do not have to mess with the computer layout. The 10 key pad and mouse are closer to me on the table. I found this arrangement more "ergonomic" than having one hand stretched out over a computer's keys, and the other hand moving the mouse.
Just remember when you make sudden twitchy movements with your keyboard you bleed speed in comparison to the smooth energy retaining movements you make with the keyboard.
I find the Hurricane IIb is best plane to outmaneuver other planes. Ive outmaneuvered biplanes and I-16 type 27 multiple times depending on how good your flying.
The technique you used of using ups and downs and yawing to get even more inside your turn is called yoyo (there is inside yoyo and outside yoyo) its an official thecnique used by fighter pilots
For me that battle would have lasted 0.10 seconds. By the way thank you so much for the video, I have been trying to improve my skills and find tips thanks from many!
Good video but wish you implemented more gameplay examples like the sharp turns with rudder, the maneuevers, and etc. Showing us how they are used/examples of mechanics/skills/maneuvers being used really helps. Nonetheless, great vid :)
lol i just started playing and before watching this video al i did was use the mouse and the keyboard rol to the side button, basicly i flew with my mouse only
+Krebs Your tips is good for any aircraft or just for the nation you are using? I prefer to use the german aircrafts (actually i just play as german even in tank fights) and the main reason for this is because it has a decent armor protection, but usually i get shot in my wings and it fall apart very easily, this to not mention that the a just few german aircrafts have the ability to make turns like the japanese ones, doyou know any tip for these aircraft or i can follow your tips without worry too much about being shot down so easy as happen nowadays?
When I was new to wt about 1.5 years ago the other video you uploaded ages ago about pulling good manoeuvres was really helpful, too bad arcade got boring and too easy so I had to start playing rb where flying and fighting against other players is more of a.. challenge :p Also, those are good manoevres but some of them will only work in 1v1s and not full arcade battles because if you would turn for that long either your teammate or tons of other enemies would dive onto you in no time :p
Great video! Very helpful. Not sure why anyone would criticize you for this video. It is very well done, and a gift to the WT community, especially those of us who are new, and looking for some "mentoring." Many, many thanks!
It’s not and it’s not. This is an awful guide made by a new player and if you follow what he attempts to teach here you will have a really bad gaming experience.
hello bro! it is a good advice but you do more action with keyborad than mouse! i just want to know how can i setup my control config like Warplanes! bc the movement in warplanes is more balance on mouse muvement than keyboad. my problm is i cant trun my plane faster in wt than i do in warplanes! and i like WT. i hope u can help me.
Ok, I have a question about wep. When you turn the wep on isn't that basically putting the engine into overdrive? Doesn't wep just heat up your oil and water and when those get too hot your engine stops?
Doing nearly instant roll overs in mid air to shoot people down behind me with the advance controls in AB its funny. They are like i got you now then what no no hacker their plane explodes from a bursts from my hispanos xD
hey krebs do u think my russian plane setup is good? im using 2 bombers 2 Hunters and 1 ground attack plane But i still wonder wich ones i could use im ussing the Lagg BB-1 and a biplane andd some bombers currently
The arcade mode turned more realistic with the last update which is nice, the game is more fun that way ^^, but bombing from high altitude turned very hard.
Can you recommend me a nation? i almost play mainly fighters. I pay attention to maneuverability and firepower. Play aggressively and like fast ones dogfights. I played the Germans, it got boring in the long run and am looking for a nation. Do 1-2 rounds with each nation with the flown by starter planes. I confided in everyone (except Japan, where I only did assists). Can you help me? Besides, I still wanted say the nation wants to play through completely the jets
I use a DS4 on PS. Look how unrealistic these turns are. Basically turning on a dime. I didn't know they had Zero point energy space ships in Ww2! No wonder people on pc instantly turn around and are on my 6. I still get up to 13 kills with realistic turns. But nice video. Good presentation
Don’t even try it just play tanks honestly I think it’s impossible to fly in this game with a PS4 controller. They should’ve made the controls like the GTA V ones.
Imagine pilots irl dogfighting like that for hours and no respawn .___.

Tony Ennis very worst part of the video
Eddiquette Tv that’s what happens when you dogfight people who know what they are doing. It becomes a waiting game until your opponent makes a mistake.
@@boundary2580 In arcade battles it's about 20 seconds or less until someone gets backup. This video is from a special 1 vs 1 tournament.
@Nybbl er true - the teams get smaller at higher tiers bc of lack of available players. I've had some fun 6 vs 6 battles in rank V jets.
I never wep with russian planes, because I love STALLIN'
Oh that's good. :D

I don’t get how he cuts the rudder to do a 180. Every time I do it makes the plane roll
The cobra
ziJumpii I saw a spitfire in air RB do a cobra then shooting down an enemy. No kidding
The chances of ramming into each other is also high then. Happened to me 2 times recently, when my enemy tried to pull this off
@@andrewrichardson3135 it naturally rolls, you need to use the ailerons to counter the spin.

This vid was such a huge help! Thanks so much for taking the time to make this XD
Wat r u doing hir

Krebs: Do u want to become more powerful, powerful than u ever imagine.
Me: Yes . . . my master . . . . .
Thanks for that. I've been struggling with using my rudder in War Thunder. This tutorial gave me a much clearer idea of what to do.
You are literally a saviour, i didn't know about this pitch key bind thing till now, and ever since i have been using it i have not lost a game since
i usually use the flaps with the bv bomber. you can actually keep it into the air even when 80% of your wings are destroyed
This is great and all but my tactical maneuver that has served me well is to fly in a straight line. Your enemy will be confused (hopefully) and will not shoot you down giving you the chance to get the kill. Short. Sweet. Simple.
This was extremely helpful thanks. My dogfighting improved immensely after watching this.
Wow that fight was not as exciting as I hoped. Thanks for the tips man.
You're one hell of a pilot, thanks for the video

Thank u my friend you helped with turning i keep on getting killed when turn i would be late but now im fast at turning
So, in that dogfight, u combined the chandel and the hammerhead maneuver to make you turn sharper...cool.
oh look a fancy man
thanks for sharing your tips - very informative! You're a great teacher!
perfect

Most informative WT video i saw. Great job and thank you for sharing your knowledge
3:39 that's an "Immelmann turn". Check about that WWI ace.
not really though
Can you please make an 2021 version of this video?
Just remember when you make sudden twitchy movements with your keyboard you bleed speed in comparison to the smooth energy retaining movements you make with the keyboard.
I find the Hurricane IIb is best plane to outmaneuver other planes. Ive outmaneuvered biplanes and I-16 type 27 multiple times depending on how good your flying.
You showed how turn more sharply, I like turn fights, (and are quite good if I say so myself), SO DANG HELPFUL, THANK YOU. p.s keep the vids coming.
How to play like a pro:
1) dont play ABs
2) be good
Nice. You have probably blew my wings off at least once over the past years.
The technique you used of using ups and downs and yawing to get even more inside your turn is called yoyo (there is inside yoyo and outside yoyo) its an official thecnique used by fighter pilots
thank you it really helped me now I can fly like Manfred von Richthofen. just kidding......
How come there are never any PS4 videos of this game?
why do the planes lock up and stop turning well? I thought it was from fatigue but it happens right out of the gate sometimes or after respawn.

My techniques are just doing G manuevers more than a jet with a j22 and then heading on jets with j8A but that's in custom battles so..
Awesome video! Really helps and its even better that you prove your a great player rather than just say and not show.
Good video but wish you implemented more gameplay examples like the sharp turns with rudder, the maneuevers, and etc. Showing us how they are used/examples of mechanics/skills/maneuvers being used really helps. Nonetheless, great vid :)
Heyy, I can’t get to the interface setting after choosing my controls in the control wizard I’m not able to configure the interface

I have played for a while but just can't use they keyboard well enough, this helped
The rudder thing for turning .. yeah, but you bleed your speed big time doing that, most of times it will get you killed, speed is life my friend...
would you do this for RB?

Do flaps work well with early American planes that can't really turn well anyway (P-40, F4F, A-20, I'm barely on Rank 2, or even Germans)?

not necessarily slower the plane sharper the turn some plays turn better at high speeds
can you tell me, where the zoom in and zoom out control is ?

How does one key bind landing flaps as a separate key from the rest of the flaps?
