Добавлен 21 май 2020
I stream flight simulator footage IL2 Great Battles and occasionally War Thunder Sim. I am starting my flight simulator journey from having played games such as Red Baron, Aces over the Pacific / over Europe, and Secret Weapons of the Luftwaffe back in the 90s.

Controlling the fight and not giving the enemy any opportunities
Not a very exciting clip, but I'm happy with how I handled my plane defensively. My gunnery and offensive flying leaves a lot to be desired, but we're getting there slowly but surely.
Not bad for a 2v1 situation and being able to serve one of the Spitfires up for an ally. I also kept them from noticing the stricken BF110 from the beginning of the clip. I got a glimpse of the 110 as they were egressing below the engagement. -- Watch live at www.twitch.tv/blackcatactual

IL2 | Combat Box | How Patience and Altitude Advantage Work Together
Просмотров 733День назад
Really tested my patience because there were other contacts in the area I wanted to shoot down, but I wanted this P51 first. Other friendly pilots entered the area and managed to get their escort, who incidentally could not chase me because I kept speed up for the most part. Watch live at www.twitch.tv/blackcatactual

Nice flying, live to fight another day. Any chance you could upload these at a higher resolution?
It goes up to 1440p60, but yes, I am still trying to figure out my streaming settings.
@@blackcatactual Oh I see that now, when I left my comment I could only get it up to 720p.
I've done that so many times
It's so much easier to cook an engine in DCS. Haha! But yeah, I've cooked so many engines in IL-2 as well.
Do you guys have a Discord?
Yeah man, everyone is welcome here: discord.gg/k6Sd6Ey9ay
@@blackcatactual sweet! Thanks! I joined. Same name as here. What time do y'all normally fly?
It depends. What's your time zone?
Hmu next time you're on!
Will do.
Uh, where do I hit you up and how do I find you? haha!
I think you made a mistake at 7:06 that's worth analyzing. You make a pass on the mosquito, no hits, that's fine. But then as you overshoot him, you turn towards him which puts you right in front of him. Then you reverse your turn and put yourself in front of him again. At that point you're in a scissors with him which means you're wasting energy maneuvering.
I see, I'll give it a look.
I see you, not die allied Schwein! 😂😂😂
5:15 "I'm gonna run" Doesn't work against a mustang :P I think you should've went into a cloud and try to lose him that way if you want to disengage
I realize that, but given that he was going upward when I dived, I thought I could put just enough distance between us. I was wrong.
@@blackcatactual Yeah remember that if he went up he's coming down and 51s get there speeds up instantly in dives
Smoked em 🎉
It took a few passes man. Those tempests are tough!
Nice editing! A little feedback: at the start of the video, I thought it wasn't loading due to the still image of the thumbnail.
Got it. I should animate the thumbnail more or shorten the thumbnail duration.
The objects on the field was happy to watch how patience you was
Yes, do you think they'd be happy to watch me get shot down if I tried to turn with the Mustang instead and lose speed?
@@blackcatactual you're a Dora, you can easily throw a short fight with a Mustang, especially since he had rocket pods xd Besides, it only worked because there was just one enemy around who didn't really care for you apart from dodging
I'm still learning, but yeah. I was being careful because he had buddies in the area. ps. I watch your channel quite a bit.
I have had the same thing happen, ilstats shows me with several hits, but none recorded sortie details
Sad
Hi Are you associated to Frog Actual? I note on the forum he said he lost access to his IL-2 purchases on steam. I note this was a few days after I myself was banned again from multiplayer. I criticised Enigma on the 13th July, then on the 14h July I found my multiplayer list was empty.... Then about 5 days later (19th??) Frog Actual's post in the forum. Looks like support closed his ticket without resolving the issue. To me it looks like Frog Actual has been unfairly and erroneously targeted by the 1C company for simple similarity in name to myself, even though there is zero connection between he and I....
Not associated with Frog Actual at all.
Imo kills are never stolen in IL2, they are only confirmed. I care more that the enemy that wanted to shoot me can no longer shoot me.
Keyword is "somewhat" Kills can still be stolen in IL2. If you shoot off someone's rudder and they fall to the deck and hit the ground, they count as your kill. However, if you do the same and someone else shoots them before they hit the ground, it counts as an assist. It's why people still dive at falling planes. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
That was satisfying to watch
Been working on my coordinated turns. I find I have more energy overall that I can use for shenanigans like this.
So I'll just throw out a few things. I will say I don't have much experience flying the 152 but here's everything I can think of. If turn performance seems worse than expected the first thing to consider is weight i.e. fuel. Again I'm not too familiar with this plane but based on the stats the full fuel is heavier (relatively) than some other planes. e.g. full fuel load 388 kg 190 D9 and 736 kg for TA-152. I couldn't get a great look at your fuel gauge but it looks to me like your fuel level is quite high. Second is battle damage. Obviously only matters after you took that hit towards the end and certainly when it caused the wing to break off. Some say that the adjustable stabilizer matters. If wing stalling is your problem then the stabilizer shouldn't be the problem since it should only increase elevator authority but a lot of folks like to go tail heavy on the trim while turning. That's about all I can think of.
I've had some help since this flight and I had the following problems. 1. Not turning coordinated. IE not using the rudder. There is a lot of nose yaw in my rolls, which shows this. 2. I was on full fuel, yes, which I should have reduced given how efficient the TA152 is with its fuel load. 3. After taking hits, my wings snapped. Which I failed to notice early enough to bail out as there was no audio cue. 4. It's quite well documented that the P47's flaps are busted in this game and turn it into a UFO. I've used the TA152 since and have done better with it. Thank you for your help though,
Barca does indeed have good lessons
He does indeed. We're planning to do a series like that and if you'd like to do a video like this, we can as well. Haven't seen you on in a bit, good to see you again! Cheers!
@@blackcatactual Yeah been on the pc less and less
One thing that I've noticed is that 51s spin much less above 250mph. And also flaps are very important here when turnfighting in this plane
This was maybe the 1st or 2nd time I flew up in the 51. I rarely get to fly allies because the allied player population is always higher than the Axis side during late war and I don't want to add to the imbalance. If I had my preference, I would fly the following planes as often as I could: P38 P51 Spitfire BF109 FW190 TA152 I often find myself in the 190, especially the Dora, because I rather like the way it dives and rolls. In a high speed dive, you can roll with anyone and pull sharp to get guns on, which can catch a pilot out if they aren't careful.
Which server?
This was on Finnish Virtual Pilots.
I to have had bad cases of dirt poisoning
It's really the worst.
Don't forget to check 6 more often. Your getting good man
Thanks man!
If "you can't fire me, cuz I quit!" was a pilot.
Apparently he got hit by flak a few moments before and his pilot unalived at that point.
Yo lovin it! More of this stuff this was super helpful!!
Your wish is my command!
I'm down for that
Man I love the cockpit on that thing
It's not the best cockpit, but it's great!
Your cat is great at taxing
The perfect copilot, don't you think?
@@blackcatactual Purrrfect baby 😉
this is the best slideshow I have ever seen lmao
You can thank my cat! haha!
Gotta love the P-38- an American fighter with a 20mm cannon!
Yep, it's my favorite!
You and me should do some 1v1s. Id have to watch this on a screen bigger than my phone to see exactly what's going on but there seemed to be a few small mistakes that added up
It was an annoying and frustrating dogfight. The plane kept constantly wing-stalling at the slightest elevator input and I couldn't understand why. It had never behaved this way with me before. I was flying it the day prior with no issues like this, turning hard in dogfights with Spitfires so I really don't know why it's getting out-turned by a P47 suddenly.
Good content. The P38 can effectively outclimb just about everything at 4100ft/min below 10k. So if you have energy, don't get trapped into a deck turn fight. Hit and run tactics work best. I have a couple hundred hours on Combat Box in the P38 in VR. It's plenty capable when flown correctly. Good job on the video.
Thanks man! It is one of my faves. Maybe we can fly together one of these days.
That was a good fight tho man. They just out did us. We pushed our engines too hard
Yeah, I'm happy with putting up a good fight even if I lose. It's the ones where you get taken out instantly that suck.
Good effort anyway, I would have gotten scared and ran all the way home after taking that damage!
Thanks. I was feeling pretty useless after that, but this is what usually happens. Lots of the other players have way more experience so it feels quite crushing to be wrecked like that.
@@blackcatactual It happens. Especially while escorting. Just get em home
Also I've always felt that the 109 g6 is better for escorting because it's more maneuverable which is better for escorting missions
Rule #1.) Lose sight, lose fight
Yeah, I figured that.
@@blackcatactual 🫡
Slapped that man down
He was asking for it, doing a head-on with a Dora. What was he thinking?
looks like me.
@@bewell4467 happens to the best of us.
"I'm going to stay up here because fuck him" was real
@@TheRoland1014 i think he ended up being the one that shot me down in the end.
whenever i see good flying i cant help but wonder how? i keep spinning with every sharp bank i do...
@@rockus22 you gotta be gentle with that stick and you gotta understand your aircrafts capabilities, even just a bit. Fly around solo in practice and throw your aircraft into all sorts of maneuvers. If you spin, learn how to recover quickly. (Throttle down, and rudder opposite the spin)
Server?
This was on Finnish Virtual Pilots
It's a fun server just need more people on it. I love early war
That was a great fight
It was wild and great fun. Too bad we both ended up in the dirt with seized engines. HAHA!
what game is this ? DCS ? cuz it really isn't War Thunder haha
This is the IL2 Sturmovik Great Battles series. il2sturmovik.com/ Come play with us!
He just got deleted dude
He actually survived to follow me around for a bit, but his engine was kaput at this point.
Epic fight
It was a slow build up of manic action.
Beautiful!
Thank you! Cheers!
You have chosen to fly the spitfire. You are now my enemy lol
Lol!
где фонарь потеряли? почему не включаете форсаж на G14?
At the time, I was not 100% familiar with the BF109s and their capabilities. Not sure if translation is correct: В то время я не был на 100% знаком с BF109 и их возможностями.
@@blackcatactual да, у него форсаж работает достаточно долго до 10 минут за 1 раз, сброшенный фонарь съедает очень много максимальной скорости. Удачи тебе в игре!
Спасибо
Cool reversal and conversion. Two thumbs up on the backing track. Wish I could hear the SFX though.
@@MrTRexPh I'm working on the balance. The RUclips editor is quite limited. Next tracks, I will edit on DaVinci Resolve and be a bit more cinematic. :)
That was an awesome furball
It was fun!
Song starts playing. There goes my hero
Haha, it's that or Learn to Fly by the same band.
How did you find a guy that just stayed straight
Also good kills
What do you mean?
@@blackcatactual I'd have to watch it again but the first or second guy seemed to just stay straight or gently turn. When I get on a guy he starts having seizures all over the place lol
@@JustinWaller-pj9jg Lol! They get that way when you run them out of energy or they lose track of you.
Pretty sure you did. If you didn't get credit its either someone else did more damage or its a bug that happens sometimes
Likely a bug because I checked the stats and it reported not even a hit.
@@blackcatactual yea it happens sometimes.
Smooth
Thank you, kind sir.
Love the music choice!
I found it worked and events happened with the notes so I kept it there.
