Uploads are going to be a lot less frequent from here on out. I'm getting busier with academics and the likes. I still have a lot of videos I want to make so here's the kind of content you can expect from here on out: 1) More Vehicle Reviews: I'm done using AdamTheEnginerd's format. I think I've relied far too long on his video format as a crutch, so while in my future vehicle reviews I'll still be focusing on keeping the vehicle characteristics descriptions concise and the gameplay review centered on ingame decisionmaking, I'll be changing the style up so that I can more confidently say I'm creating something I can say that I can take full credit for myself. The idea I have for doing this will involve some spritework and animation which I'm still not great with so it may take some time before I make one. Priority will be on vehicles that either I know are underrepresented on this platform and/or video requests from you guys (So far on the list are the F-82, Ta 152C, Bf 109 G6, N1K2, Yak-15/17, let me know if I've missed any). 2) General Gameplay Guides: There are a lot of "How to Air RB" guides on this platform but I think it'd be worth making my own series on it. I'm by no means the best duelist or dogfighter but I still think there are elements of decisionmaking and skills in Air RB that I can share that won't be covering what's already been said. On top of that, I think I have a cool idea for how to make them interesting and entertaining instead of it turning into a boring lecture, vaguely similar to the "A Crap Guide to D&D" series by JoCat. Just a couple of the videos I want to make in this category are: Determining Ideal Climb Speed, Energy and Energy Fighting, Taking Headons, Keyboard Controls and Settings, Flaps Usage, and Ingame Decisionmaking among more. 3) Parody/Montages: I can't give away too much about the ideas I want to make for this but just know that they'll be in the same vein as my "Perry the A-10" or "Me-163 Jetpack Joyride" video. The editing/quality in those videos aren't quite up to the standard that I'd like but it's a learning process so I'm hoping that by making them I can improve my editing/drawing/animation skills. There are about 4 different ones that I'm thinking about but you can expect the next one to be ... large caliber. TLDR: I have plans for cool video ideas but I'm also busy so expect much less frequent uploads.
@@quangodjango9351 yep, that's the idea. I will say that taking and dodging headons is probably a skill best learnt after getting comfortable with dogfighting first but its still a good skill to have
Understandable bro. So far i've been loving your content, you've definitely been scratching my Adam itch that i've been feeling ever since he stopped, and i'd say you still make it somewhat original with the memes and your great descriptions on the plane's characteristics that i haven't been able to find in such detail in places like the wiki or even in Defyn's videos (so far he's been getting way too goofy for my taste and less informative these last uploads, i still enjoy him tho). But if you can make such good content using Adam's template, i can imagine you can come up with some cool stuff to show us. I'd love some gameplay guides btw, i've been trying to use Defyn's guides to try to teach some of my brazilian friends but he's way too chaotic in his videos for them to understand his points (not to mention his accent lol), if you could make some that are more digestible than his, of course in your own style, that'd be great!
@@magicmissile7533 Thanks for the support! It means the world to me Yeah that was one thing I felt when watching a lot of the video guides was that they were either only like a "top 5 tips" thing where the tips themselves are not really to do with one topic but just sort of a random assortment. The ones more dedicated to a specific topic also tend to be rather disorganized so I'm going to try and make mine as informative, concise, and entertaining as possible. Defyn is still fun to watch, I think his funny personality is still a major component of his appeal and he does a good job of showing the general vibe of a vehicle's playstyle but doesn't get too caught up in the little details, and I think that's where I can contribute and have something to say.
Ever since i got to the F-104 in the US tree i've become a great enjoyer of "'Murica's Throbbing Mach 2 cOck™". I personally use the 104C, as in the full uptiers (8/10 games every time) i like to go bomb a base using a lofting technique that lets me go faster than anything else that 180ºs for me so it's always a guaranteed half base as long as i don't die in a headon or something, helps distract the enemies and/or gives me a good position to start attacking the enemies from behind. Outside of uptiers i like to use a rocket pod as makeshift flares, helps a bit against some aim-9ps that i come across.
LMAO supersonic dick is very much an apt description of this plane. I did have the F-104C spaded first but since I wanted to showcase dogfight performance, I decided to spade the F-104A for this video specifically. The F-104A i think is lighter and therefore faster since the F104C had some modifications installed to let it carry those bombs and rockets. I did try using the rocket pods as flares and they work okay but I feel like at 9.3-10.3 most of the missiles are dodgeable or avoidable if you play carefully, tho having that pod might let you play more aggressive and push headons with a10s that dont know any better. Might try it again
@@magicmissile7533 HOW DARE HE!!!!! HE DEFINITELY SAW MY VIDEO AND DECIDED TO RIP ME OFF BY GATHERING FOOTAGE AND EDITING IT AND UPLOADING AND PUBLISHING IT ALL IN UNDER 4 HOURS BECAUSE HE HATES ME SPECIFICALLY GRRRRRRRRRR I'M SO ANGRYYYYYY (i know you're probably joking too lmao) The bigger issue that I have whenever people make F-104 content is that they DON'T showcase its turn performance, especially with flaps so 1) people don't know how to use it to its potential and 2) Newbies think its good and rush it and don't know how to use it since they've just been told it's good at headons and running so they just do that instead of actually playing the game, drawing out games for 25 minutes, playing passively, or dying and keeping it at this criminally low BR.
That's the issue i'm having with any vulcan equipped plane... I just hate this gun altogether... Guns like the F-5s and F-8s are MUCH better to use even though they are less powerful....
I do still prefer the vulcan over the 20mms on the F-5/8 but yeah high rate of fire and the spool time make it annoying to tap fire bursts when I want them.
@@CatWerfer Yeah, still can't figure out what to do with them in a MD452. If 104 has more than zero brain activity, they just don't go turnfighting and with their mach 1+ speed you can't even line up your shots well. To add salt on the wound you can't even outrun/energy trap those things

I hope the Taking headons video will also include avoiding headons, I am so bad at timing the dodge right

Hate seeing these things at 8.7; but I absolutely love encountering Starfighters at 10.3.

I just found out your channel and subbed immediately, good content man keep it up.
Thanks! Glad you enjoy the stuff i make. it'll probably be at least a couple days until my next upload though, getting busier.

The bigger issue that I have whenever people make F-104 content is that they DON'T showcase its turn performance, especially with flaps so 1) people don't know how to use it to its potential and 2) Newbies think its good and rush it and don't know how to use it since they've just been told it's good at headons and running so they just do that instead of actually playing the game, drawing out games for 25 minutes, playing passively, or dying and keeping it at this criminally low BR.
You left kills at zero on the first game lol
Oops I could've sworn i remember doing the kill counter, maybe I uploaded the wrong version

Idk why but you style remind me of ADAM The Engineer
Yeah my video style was heavily derived from his, tho I'm planning on having a more original format for future videos
@@CatWerferhey btw great video I'm already sub!! Wait for some Great video in future!
Absolutlely disgusting plane in a downtier
fr, new players will just headon/run, and everyone else suffers

Now not anymore
still pretty good, i played it recently and got a 6kill with minimal brain activity
@@CatWerfer well, just bandz it's not fun for me...
