I was crazy about getting top tier until I got them, then realized I liked props a lot more… it’s fun and all playing my irl favorite jets, but whenever I get the urge now I just play dcs instead.
Worst of all, my “main” game mode in war thunder is naval now, I love not sweating and just watching big guns fire
I literally have not gone back to WT since starting DCS. WT is an Esport full of toxic people and awful game mechanics and I won’t miss the $200+ I put into it.
Newport news 8 inchers go bang bang bang
The moment they add the Bismarck is the day I start navel(or once I finish all my other German lines)
True, I prefer dogfighting over dodging missile and spamming flare.
I love that I finally find this video in my recommended as soon as I've learned a lot of these lessons the hard way. But it's good to hear someone confirm it all the same. Thanks for the encouragement 🙏
Also one tip if you're engage in dogfight for some reason or if there is ennemies nearby don't hesitate to periodically drop flares, lots of people in dogfight get too focused on their ennemy and end up gettting missiled by a third party so dropping flares during your dogfights allow you to dodge missiles that you potentially haven't payed attention to
You’re gonna really like this joke dude I promise it’s funny and you haven’t heard it before. #1 tip for top tier is to NOT PLAY IT!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💯💯
Vary true, when half the people at that BR probably don’t have a drivers license IE 9.7 to 10.7, It’s a bit too smooth brained for me. Not that I’m any good though xD
Agree
I actually enjoy top tier air sim in VR
Bro made Defyne out of Defyn lmao
“define” is actually how he intended the name to be pronounced, but everybody ended up just saying “deafen” so that’s what stuck. Neither is really wrong these days and i don’t think he really cares which one u use tbh
@@SeekerHeadare you de-fin's assistant?
i somehow completely forgot about the fox 1 battle trick, so that is why i get screwed so much, makes sense. thank u sako
Hey Sako,
Great content.
One tip I would give about Fox 1 jousting is to practice maintaining a lock at the very edge of your radar beam and cranking from side to side at a maximum angle of your dish.
This way, one should be full afterburner and yet such cranking manuever will bleed the energy of hostile missile.
When you hit the heavy premium spam around 10.0 and you don't have access to any countermeasures with stuff like the F-105 you can use Aim9 E's as standoff counters to R60's in a head-on....it's not much but you can avoid some frustration like this.
Use unguided rockets if you have em(i.e. mighty mouse rocket pods), throttle down and shoot some off when a missile is launched at you(you might be able to get away with not throttling down). Missile will follow after the rocket
Would love to see a Ground RB version of this!
Easy. Don’t play it
@@SPFLDAngler Im already at top tier, just curious what tips he might have.
Hey sako. I was watching your soviet cas reviews and noticed you haven't done one on the Su-17M2/M4. Can you do a review on one of those?
ive been on the f5c ultimately, man, i wish to have a team where at least 80% of the teammates pass the lvl 30 haha
Sako, couldn’t agree more. I’m top tier jets in 4 nations and honestly it’s depressing all that work and effort to get shot down within a minute after leaving the runway.
Personally I find the 9-10.3 br not too painful although the su25 is ridiculous hard to kill. War Thunder is hard when you play on your own as none of my mates play, always up for a game if you ever want the chance!
Dude i want into a match with my top tier friend as a bf 109 and I killed an su 25 easy peasy
When it comes to bombing bases at top tier, I tried to spade my F-4J because I always used the F-4E and skipped the J on my way to the F-14. I have found I usually get intercepted before I get my bombs off. And this is before the F-16 and MiG-29 was added, I can’t imagine how bad it probably is now.
3:36
I don't think crashing into a random bit of field (or maybe even a ground vehicle or a plane, if you're very skilled) is a reasonable playstyle, especially with top tier repair costs.
I love high tier, and good info, basically go fast, go faster, and go even faster :D Speed is Key
I don’t really agree that 8.7 is missile spam. There are only the aim 9b-s which are easy to evade. The only missile that is annoying is the sea vixen’s missile. You still depend on your gun I play the br with the saab 105 oe and I get most of my kills by guns. I suffer at 9.3 with the a32 and j32 you dont have missiles only aim9 b on the j32 and you dont have flares and your not that fast so I cant grind rank 7 its so slow. They force you to buy a premium
Yeah, I agree. 8.7 has missiles but only aim 9bs and red tops. If you get hit by a 9b you're either in a bomber, already very slow, or it was a skill issue. Red tops are pretty frustrating but only the sea vixen gets them, and it doesn't get a gun so it's fine.
And on the earlier part of your video... the "fun" range now stops at 8.0, because Gaijin just added a vehicle with AIM-9Ps and Flares at 9.3.
Top Tier Air RB would become a place of joy if it was modeled exactly as Ground RB. No gamer tag indicators, you rely on your visual scanning and radar, extreme G maneuvers are very punishable than Air realistic.
14:14 How do you enable the sounds in the background, like missile tone, the the voice saying "chaff/flare"?
It's a sound mod
Look at you, sitting here like you even have any top tier planes
I have just unlocked the su22m3 today, to say I needed this video is an understatement, i am doing a lot better than ud expect a first timer to do, i even got an air to air kill on my first game with it
Plus, no VPO or GUUD (sp?)
Off topic question but I accidentally teamkilled and do you if I can get banned for that?
If you team kill twice in a single game I think you get kicked from the match. You can get banned for it, but it would have to be very intentional
@@SAKOSNIPER thanks for the help
Does anyone know any Y2 channels like the ones he recommended but for modern ground vehicles?
Spookston, hunter, justinplays
Tankenstein is also a interesting channel for both Air and Ground vehicles.
Top prop is best tier. However, gaijin has abandoned top prop.
spittie mk24 is godly even in full uptier
Make video about low tier GB and AB
You should do a video about all the radar in warthunder
Another WT RUclipsr has already made very comprehensive videos on Radar, Missiles, and more.
Tim’s Variety. I’m partial because same first name, but he really has already done such a good job that another person doing the same would just fall short.
Am I the black sheep for playing air rb only for tippy top tier?
Edit: The German Shepard is back!
btw do you think that ja37C is in unfair position vs 4 gen gets? its litealy completely outclassed by new jets like F4E phantom and EVERYBODY is calling it amazing but in reality its now compeltely usseles
ja37D is significantly better w the am 9ls and 400 Countermeasures, u can leave it on periodic and be immune to ir missile for like 4 mins straight lol
@@shminkydinky321 nope
I was. Talking. About JA 37C not about D
@@diprosla592 yeah that one is outclassed, i’d rather take it over any phantom personally but get the ja37D if u can
@@shminkydinky321 i am debating about getting j35FS since j35D is also outclassed by 9L no flares just like f4c and so idk what to actualy use to grind mig21 in finish line because 37c is now as i sad usseles wich leaves me with j35D and a32a for finishing mig 21bis for fins
1:40 Sako YEARS ago on the Shooting Rage episodes, they said they would NEVER add a premium jet to avoid people buying their way. No joke the video is still up. Also speaking of jets, anything 10.0 is just a full uptier. You'll guaranteed right 11.0s to 11.7s. It's beyond annoying. Team balancing does not exist. I'm sick and tired of playing 10.0 being forced to fight Tornadoes, high Migs and F14s. It's just not fun at all
Yes… YEARS ago, the game was completely different. Get a grip on reality, they said things like ‘we will never add ships because they are too slow, never add after burning aircraft, never add anything past 1956, etc.’ this argument is so old and useless. They meant that they wouldn’t add a final tier premium, i.e. if Tier VIII exists as the FINAL tier, then there will be no Tier VIII premiums. They still follow that rule of no top tier premiums.
How are you fightning f14's when your 10.0? The f14 is 11.7 only way to fight it is to play a 10.7 jet.
@@Bandit4557aaaaand they just broke that too and added a tier VIII premium
@@Trojanarchist still not top tier, it is rank VIII but not top tier.
Im enjoying my Stock FGR2 I actually can do ok
Finally got the mig 29 today
NICE!
I’m at the Pe-3, this might take longer than my usual ground grind since this is my first time grinding an aviation tree
@@12LoLproductions Id say that the aviation grind is easier since you get more RP
The last thing a new player should do is play low-tier jets or high-tier props because you will be eaten alive by veteran players who already have years of experience playing those planes. If you embrace the beatings and build the skill to hold your own, you will learn that much of what you know has no applicability to top-tier. War Thunder Air RB is pretty much four different games with mutually exclusive strategies and tactics based on the characteristics of the planes and weapons at those tiers. A new player should just focus on what they actually want to fly and single mindedly focus on that.
The biggest issue with top-tier is that it keeps on changing. The introduction of new planes and weapons can cause massive swings in viability for different planes. Most of the planes at the top that suffer today were once the gods in the air that made all other planes suffer. You have to keep on learning to stay on top and the game does not help you one bit with that. BVR fights are some of the most fun I've had with the game, but you will need to watch people play DCS to actually learn how to do that.
I love how your radar in every jet never loses lock. Doesn't matter what jet I'm in, if I have to rely on radar missiles, you can bet your ass the radar isn't going to hold a lock. PD is supposed to be great for head ons, yet I lose lock on people flying directly at me. The game is just so busted. Don't get me started on how unbalanced it is. Having F4 and MiG-23 facing F-14/16 and MiG-29...
Gun kills?
Sweden says hello 👋 😄
ive said this before on other videos but i actually feel bad for top tier air rb players because IMO they have the coolest vehicles in the game which will only keep getting cooler but the most dog trash garbage game mode of them all which will only keep getting worse. and this is coming from a person who plays top tier naval lmao
Unfortunately u can’t just hop in the mig29 and get 6 kills and act like maverick
since the map change and all the new BVR shit the fun factor in top tier has dropped off dramatically for me, cool as the F16 and Mig29 are, it's just not much fun radar jousting imho, ~10.3 is still the best gameplay
How do we beat the Russian bias 😅
join them like i did
Shoot 6+ missiles at the Russian jets
after sky gaurdians, just don't bother playing top tier, i used to enjoy playing air RB before all the maps became EC i had back to back ace games before the update, now it just feels like a chore playing my beloved F-16
I am also not a fantastic piwot
As a Harrier gr7 enjoyer i dissagree with 2 tips...
1) Dont dogfight... Well.. But i want to :D With a proper use of "Harrier VTOL bulsh*t" i can beat almost anything in dogfight... and
2)Dont fly high if you have an aircraft without BVR missiles. Again.. I do it. I know how to defend against Fox1s or 3s sooo there is just a small chance i´ll get killed by them (there is still some chance...its not foolproof) and the advantage it gives me to just drop on enemies shoving my four 9Ls up their a*s greatly outweighs the risk i get hit by some Tomcat boi at high altitude.
Anyway... good tips.
War Thunder Sim is nothing like this imo
Pwanes
first
Top tier is garbage but i enjoy 9.3too
184
Also.. what's with the DCS sounds? lmao... just play DCS instead of War Thunder..
Shite game! :D
I just unlocked the Mig-21 Bis Sau and finally got the R-60mk's. Honestly I hate it, absolute nightmare. The mig21mf is by far more fun. I hate hate hate fighting f14's and mig29's. Its not fun and has made me uninstall several times.
I hate to say it, but the MiG-21bis is excellent at where the game is right now, even with the R-60Ms… actually specifically helped by the fact it has the better R-60’s. You just don’t understand how to use it and you just have to realize that the game is completely different with these aircraft, new gameplay tactics are required.
@@Bandit4557 its a lot better now that i've almost spaded it. was a nightmare to get used to tho
@@zackwaffen9210 I’m glad to hear! Most of the time, stock vehicles are borderline useless, so you just kinda have to keep shoveling the RP until it’s where it should be.
