Does it still get the nuke bomb if you reach 100 kills during the match I heard talk about it before it came out
It was a joke man..
no it does not
Just to clarify, Stinger missiles have an unlimited range on the altitude axis, so even if you're flying at the maximum altitude, they can still lock onto you and take you down.
That's messed up.
Oof that just discouraged me from installing again thank you. I also didn't like jdams being lockon. Dislike lockons in general they ruined planetside 2 for me.
what? Do you have some special stinger missiles? :D
Atleast u can dodge a missile in PlanetSide @@dasuberpanda
@@dasuberpanda Yoo, a fellow planetman. You talking about the 2 shot esf lock-ons? They fixed that a while ago. Atleast it's not the nevamiss™ they used to be.
The lack of flares hurts it so much. Air superiority with people all running rader missiles and heat seekers makes you get smashed over and over
I think it was meant to be a CAS vehicle, much like an A-10 warthog.
@@user-us1it7ft6j cas is even less effective if you dont have flares lmao
@@saltminer4463 The game is nothing but lock-ons. Dice made sure to destroy the game's skill ceiling with lock on spam and 20 different explosives to spam on every single specialist - for "accessibility" reasons. Radar missiles are an abomination, literally meant to even the odds for less skilled players who can't even use lock-ons correctly - lowest of the low. It's unfortunate, so much potential, but an incredibly frustrating game even after 2+ years of fixing.
@@willfullyinformed complaining about lock ons is the most retarded thing I’ve ever seen. All the rockets are horrible in this game
@@willfullyinformedpilot tears are hilarious because you can’t go 100-0 any more like you want to 😂
It’s easier to go into conquest co-op and unlock everything there. Just don’t crash or you’ll bug out and won’t be able to fly again. Rockets with jdam are a one strafe vehicle killer if you hit your shots. Use the radar jammer as you get close to the battlefield. Then use the cloak while you escape. Everything should rearm before making another pass. Fly high when you do it for the best results. The jdam will have time to lock on to a vehicle. Plus you can engage the vehicle with rockets before the jdam hits. For a sure kill if you hit your rocket shots and the jdam locks on. Vulnerable to a good jet pilot and spamming AA.
This doesn't make it better against stinger spammers and the funniest thing is that you explain this as it was fun.
Its not fun playing this bs vehicle after a certain amount of time all people will use stingers to fuck you up cause you Can't dodge infantry missles.
This vehicle is a joke a bad one... it could have been a skillfull vehicle but no sir. Dice made a coffin for flying gg...
Why is it necessary that the jdam is a lock on weapon wtf ???
Why do we only get 1 air to ground missile ???
Why is this game so stupid and badly balanced.
Imagine you hop into the draugr and play it for the first time and you get shot down all the time because all enemys are using stingers.
Cloaking and hopeing doesn't work you get hit once and you have to stay 1min out of battle because the repair is so slow...
U decide to heal up and after you go back to battle there are now 2 stingers good bye...
Can't say i'm positive about it because its bs its bad it sucks.
Dice is out of touch so much...
All i wanted was a BF3/4 styled game but i think the next life service game will be bad too so I QUIT BATTLEFIELD AS A WHOLE
@@Dragonrahare you genuinely asking why the JDAM can be locked on (and dumb fired)
My question is how do you start getting kills with it, I feel like with the 30 mm and starting bomb, there's not much you can really do...
@@williewilson2250 i'm asking why it locks onto vehicles back in BF4 we didn't had that and btw its not a one hit kill to infantry lol..
@@sammathis6634 go to co-op don't crash bc your camera is stuck under the map for the rest of the round.
Just do strafe runs with 20mm cannon and thermal pick one or 2 a.i's off the ground do it all over.
Don't think about nnemp bomb its useless and has no real purpose other then look cool in trailers.
Do that as long as it needs and after 20 rounds or so, then you finally get the weapons you actually need/want.
But my idea is leave the draugr out and play a jet its better and you have flares lol.
How can i grind with this, i kinda find it hard getting 240 kills to get a upgrade for the secondary weapons, EMP is trash.
Just got my Tier 3 badge for the Draugr!
i got camera bug everytime if i crashed my draugr into the ground. the bug makes my camera move under the map anytime i hop on any vehicles, even lis rocket
XD yes i get this too and have to exit the lobby and re-enter
Ill jump on this weekend and try it
Thanks for the video Ghost, needed your ideas on this thing.
It was quite fun flying around in the new jet. Although the entire time I was in this thing I was wondering why the hell we didn't get an attack jet in the end.
I miss the beasty cannon on the good ol' A10 or Frogfoot sooooo much.
This thing is a cross between Bf4 and Bf1's attack planes and I'm ecstatic to see it back
great vid, pretty dope new vehic!
this may sound weird but, could i ask what bitrate you export your gameplay with? ^^ trying to find a good number for 1440
I was wondering about that disabling bug. A few times I just couldn’t pitch up or down and crashed and was like wtf?! Good to know it’s a bug
It’s infuriating.
I remember in BF4 that when u switched to the JDAM on attack jets it would put u in like an extremely small version of the minimap and crosshair to help but everything was down to the flight path and angle of the jet itself, kinda crazy u get a live targetting pod and the jdam guides it self onto armor
Having to use the mfd felt better tbh
My expectations were excited and then I played it, and I said, “They massacred my boy.”
as someone whos struggled so hard to farm for this bombers perks, I would recommend to spam it in the Air Supremacy mode. Much easier there tbh especially if youre good in dogfighting
Loved the video and your comments, u win a sub here :) Good gaming
So the ground radar is similar to the detecting scope in heavy bombers in bf1.. much needed honestly
How do I equip it to my loadout it’s not in my collection even though I got the 40 ribbons
2:03 beautiful weapons to pick hehe
this feels like a hibrid between bf4 and bf5 loudouts, especially with the non guided bombs and HE cannons
Is it just me or is the lobby for the control lobby game mode always empty?
I’ll jump on this weekend
Afternoon, FF it's friday.
Dose soflam help with jdam in any way?
Poor thing, cool gameplay!
How do the fighter jets do now? I don't have a worthwhile connection till next weekend and the yaw buff should have made the jets far more effective against helicopters is that right?
Fighter jet is way better than the bomber in so regards tbh, even in bombing imo
Do you need to be on the American side to obtain these? I haven't seen the option yet.
nope you just need to earn 40 ribbons and you unlock it for both sides.
I believe it needs some sort of missile countermeasure or most players are not going to use it.
Simply having the stealth double or triple the amount of time it takes to get a lock on the dragur would make it play in a much better state.
My exact thoughts, make it harder to lock on to the thing. And if it becomes op as a result just increase cooldowns on bombs and countermeasures @@mikeyplayz8438
I have been trying to do solo missions so I can unlock all the load out for the new bomber but every time I do I end up looking at the horizon from under water and I can’t control it so I end up having to eject or in this case self destruct because you can just jump out and parachute down.
Yeah that's a bug atm, it happens if you crash into the ground and then respawn.
I'm not entirely sure (I haven't played in weeks), but could it be that DICE has secretly increased the deployment time of all vehicles?
the bombs for DRAUGR and steath heli have same reticle for pinpointing showing you the area where it will land and the flight path of the bombs via dotted lines. use this. but you will need to play around and abuse obstructions, hiding in the sun (with the cloak) to avoid infantry lockons. you HAVE to abuse below radar off cd of the jammer.
the drone itself is nice and hard to hit horizontally and if you fish tail / shark fin through the air with a tilt (wing tip pointing at ground) it makes swimming in the air vs ntw/snipers harder to hit u. you have to be careful turning too hard to expose top/belly of it or it lines you up for more surface area to be hit.
I barely cant play with Draugr except when the match starts and you spawn the first time. After that the cam gets stuck under the map, inside a mountain etc. while flying. Anyone else got this experience?
You can EMP and bomb vehicles from across the map if you line it up properly. They’re pretty accurate. Reminds me of the accuracy of the Mosquito from Battlefield V. The Kerosene bomb seems to have more effect on infantry, it seems to have more splash damage.
Yeah the Kerosene bomb has a lot more splash for infantry, the problem with the EMP bomb is that most smart targets are going to move :P
fun fact: The jdam can also be used as a glide bomb against Wildcat users. even if they use APS or Thermal flares they will still take damage
sooo as an AA infantry main... i am the perfect counter for it... nice xD
I need those flight settings man it looks so crisp
just search my channel for 'jet guide'
2:27 No collision damage?
how to fast unlock everything? which ai mode is best?
Conquest only but if you don't want to get annoyed by wildcats play on Spearhead because the AI never use the Wildcats for some reason on that map.
Theres another very annoying bug you didnt touch on, your bombing crosshair goes away frequently if you have the bomb selected when turning, it also happens when you go to far outside of the map
AGM on Draugr actually does like 80 damage (for tank) if fired on SOFLAM-marked target
Flight ceiling? I can be stalling at max hight and still get locked by AA or a wildcat.
maybe this stealth jet will force people to use other operators besides LIS more. idk about other people but as an attack heli pilot, im not a fan of the helicopter nerfs. as much as i know that they are strong, the amount of LIS missiles that starts flying at me is uncountable. sure the Heli is strong but u get to go into combat against half the lobby going LIS. vehicle are only strong i say because new battlefield players don't focus vehicles but anyone with a good amount of hours will do. the nerfs to vehicle that ALREADY exist is that you have to WAIT until you can get another one, not like infantry where you hold space bar and come back again anytime you want. that said i still get how frustrating it is to deal with vehicle from infantry standpoint. some games u completely take over on vehicles, other games you immediately get locked on to or having to dodge LIS missiles the moment you show up on the battlefield.
Well, the kerosin bomb is a blast.
It needs some sort of AA countermeasure. Even if that's just the temporary stealth mode preventing a lock on while the ability is active. Its way too easy for someone to lock you and get off a pair of missiles before you can put something in the way.
DUDE it's been, like, 2 days and YOU UNLOCKED IT ALL!?!? How!? Straight grinding??
you can get 80 ribbons in like 2 matches of solo/coop conquest vs bots on Redacted
Pretty much yeah, that's why the video took a few days to get out.
I Saw a reddit post of one guy having draugr tier1 already lol.
I'm such a bad pilot but I'm trying ro learn so rhat i can use this badass looking bomber.
the emp does 45-55 damage on direct impact not 30, it also bypasses vehicle aps
the agm can work as a kerosene and a jdam bomb (in the sense that the blast is huge and does 2.5x more damage) when there’s a soflam involved like the javelin (but there’s a 0% chance someone actually does that)
Right. But you need to lock onto something with the AGM and rely somewhat on soflams for it to be worth it I think. Good shout on the ECM bomb though, I wasn't aware it could hit for so much damage, I always thought I blew up some C5 or something by coincidence.
@@GhostGamingg yea that’s a big problem with it, requires 2 people to be even remotely useful which never happens, the 800m lock range is nice tho
How do you lock on with the bomb?
You just drop them from high up enough and they auto-lock
Losing mobility when hit was to help keep it balanced. People say it’s OP. me It’s the pilots skill not the plane. Look how good your doing haven’t been taken down yet. Good Game.
In a game I played just yesterday (it was on the Caspian Border map), the same infanty player shot me twice with a Stinger at an altitude of 700 and 800 meters. I don't understand whether this was a BUG or how long Stingers have been able to do this, but if you bought this Jet, you have no chance of escaping for a long time under any circumstances. If we only have Jammer, then in order to survive, we will have to constantly travel at altitudes of 900 meters and use Jammer every time it is renewed. In this case, I'm not even counting EBAAs or Stinger-wielding enemy Jets. If even an infantry can lock onto you with a Stinger at an altitude of 700-800 meters, I think this Jet has no sense of humor.
For anyone wondering how to level up and unlock the secondary weapons, really the only option is regular servers or Solo vs AI gameplay. It's a pain in the ass and not worth it for this vehicle.
Siiiiike
13:16 ON MY WHAT😳
Honestly between the amount of maps that this vehicle is available on and the requirements to unlock the decent loadout to run this bomber. just kills all the appeal for me to even try this tbh. leave it to dice to hype up something thats low key kinda garbage unless you straight up go in just to play this vehicle and pray you get a map to be able to use it.
Imagine drip feeding half of the update and then locking the update content behind a ridiculous grind. Shameless.
@@mikeyplayz8438the game mode was actually fun tbh, took a few days at most
Too bad the vehicle bug still exists in coop mode where the camera gets screwed up. Tried to use it the other night and after one death I couldn't fly again as all the vehicles were bugged again. Even Liz' missile.
it's good it's countered by stinger. But maybe have it lock on at a reduced range.
This thing is essentially a free kill. I have watched a couple of videos and the gameplay with this thing is to kill a couple of newbies, get someone salty and fly around at the map border before being killed. Glad I am not playing this.
I’m having a ton of trouble trying to unlock all of the weapons for this thing because of how trash the nnemp bomb is at killing infantry and vehicles. Is there a fast way to do this because this honestly sucks due to the amount of kills I need to get to unlock this crap
Go coop on spearhead and kill enemy bots on their spawn
I still cant get over how they couldn't even bother to put this in at Season 7s release.
The interesting part is that it's a drone so if you want to eject from it, it will self destruct. Though it really should have countermeasures.
if it has flares, it would be totally OP
can u show ur Jet settings
just search for 'jet guide' on my channel
Dice wanted to make the stinger useful after 2 years😂
I hate to correct you, but what you said about ECM in Battlefield 4 is completely wrong. In the earlier days of the game's life cycle, ECM did indeed work like that. You'd have to use it before the missile was fired, or you'd get hit anyways. However, after an update, ECM now worked like flares, allowing you to ward off incoming missiles by using ECM even after the missile was fired. ECM more or less completely replaced flares and all the pro pilots use it. Source: a little over 3000 hours played on Battlefield 4 since 2015.
You're absolutely correct sir, seems I haven't played Battlefield 4 for a bit too long and got things a bit jumbled xD. Good call out.
As long as it is unable to counter stinger missiles, it will remaine the weakest air vehicle in the game. The damage ist good, but what do i care about damage when survivability is 0? Game designers at dice smoking crack yet again. On a positive note: This was the last content patch.
Totally agreed
I don't have a problem, I smoke wildcats from a distance and there not much they can really do about because I'm so far
@@gamerf1141 Sounds fun, like camping at the map border to kill a couple of noobs. Hope the studio gets closed.
They do the same thing to the BOLTE. Get hit by the most minimal damage and lose all mobility. I don't know if its a bug or if it's intended to level the battlefield for how powerful it can be in the right hands.
Russian Sukhoi S-70 Okhotnik-B drone awesome
Meanwhile ground vehicles get thermal smoke and trophy system, dice really hate jets in this game
I thought my WC was being one shotted by JDAM's but I guess its possible it was a combo of cannons and JDAM, either way is a one pass strafe to destroy a WC and you don't hear it coming. Basically just another Sundance with C5, before you know it your gone in a 1/10 of a second and you don't even know what hit you.
Play air superiority in portal mode. I got 200 kills and assists in like 5 games
This thing out turns jets, ive won every dogfight so far. Its nose lifts up soooo fast
Also it has a crazy ceiling hight!! Like 700!!
I'm going to stick to the infantry only maps until the hype for this thing goes away.
Having to unlock an essential countermeasure is a stupid…
i just hate the fact that the jammer is on g, i cant count how many times i scanned for vehicles instead of using countermeasures, and died right after.
Dear noobies
Use cover or just do fast boming runs with the BOMBER. you can outrun missiles by going out of bounds then coming back
@GhostGaming XFAD or real name Okhotnik is a drone in the game too.
Oh stealthbomber thats not stealthy?!
Thats like a Battlefield game thats not Battlefield...😳
Maps with planes was just no fun before, now there is no reasons to play them at all. Good to know
Liz says try me bro!
Seriously? You think dice will buff the rockets? This was the very last update we were supposed to get....LOL
Last "Content" Update. They didn't say it was the last patch update yet.
so they put a futuristic Ho229 in Battlefield?
(Yes I know it's based on that new age US Drone bullshit, I don't care it literally is just the Ho-229 from WW2)
Flying wing designs don't automatically make it a 229, but the cannons and their placement are identical
Tr3b
Does it even matter when it's stupidly difficult to unlock any of the options unless you are a tosser pilot?
Jdam from wish it’s nowhere near what bf4 jdam was or is
I mean it's more powerful than the BF4 JDAM lol
I just using keyboard for flying
This vehicle is only suitable for rush mode
God i hate wildcat enjoyers. Give this plane some damn flares, please.
this thing don’t have protect against wildcat
two rocket and bay bay
Watch the video again. It has manual below radar
this is not work how he sad
if wild cat got you, you done
@@serJant997 but if you pop the manual below radar as soon as the wildcat tries to lock on them your safe
Im just glad the game got the death it deserved no more updates for the biggest flop of the franchise ❤️
I feel like this vehicle is the answer to camping, both with infantry and vehicles,
I wish i could use the damn thing tho
Its so hard to spawn as it and then I instantly die.
I wish PC players had like a 0.25 second delay before they can pick vehicle’s at the beginning of a round to let console players have a chance.
The thing is G O N E in an instant.
Grinding against AI in solo is hard too,
They never clump up and i get like 30 kills a game.
Against AI.
I an so shit :(
I need a PC
Goofy Ahh Bomber 💀
Cool but i mean i cant even fucking unlock it because its stcuk behind a game mode which NO ONE is playing so no games ever start. Nice going DICE
Uh it's not stuck behind a gamemode because where the ribbons are it says "Ribbons earned by playing any official mode will progress towards the unlocks" or something like that, i got my XFAD-4 unlocked alongside the Strife LMG by doing Solo/Coop.
@darkstar_sierra1588 ah nice i didnt know this thank you
Just play against ai on solo mode easy unlocks
This thing is unplayable. It constantly spawns under the map in coop vs bots.
My take on the plane is that it's hot garbage I mean yes you have to get lucky to get a better to do more damage with the bombs it just doesn't seem like they hit hard and by the way the air to ground missiles you only get one like wtf dice they stay releasing garbage on this game I'd rather them release it op asf first then nerf and buff shit on it
Literally useless vehicle considering the ECM jammer needs like 400+ kills. Every unluck is ungodly high kill count needed with something that had 0 defence against a neta of lis and AA spam.
First
these weapons 500 kills to unlock ???!!?! bro im not a god player neither am i playing 5 hours a day hooooww am i supposed to unlock thatshit
its ugly u forgot to mention that ghost i wouldnt fly it because of that and i stopped playing 20402 at launch
Poor infantry players.
What do you mean? All this new jet did was encourage every infantry player to use an AA missile. The infantry is going to kill the jet more than the other way around lol
@@WigglePuppy_ I have never seen any infantry use AA.
got the thumbs down this time cause all you do is focus the keyboard action
How useless do we make the Anti Air Tank in the game? DICE Yes
This is bait guys ignore this comment.
@@mikeyplayz8438 Bait? it doesn’t have flares on unlock one lock on and it’s wraps
this vehicle was not needed and makes the game worse.
