All Aces! (A6M ramble)
12 years ago
Yesterday, after a long-ish break from War Thunder, I gave up trying to fix my controller and just decided to try it out with mouse and keyboard. Either M&K is just better for that game, or I my controller had more then just a broken stick, because I came back with the help of Ace pilot possessing me or something. Yeah I was doing very good and I'm just taking a break from it now...
ANYQAY During my rampage I decided I wasn't just going to play with Britain like I normally do. And So I went about using the default planes in every other available country. Britain has the benefit of unlocking some really good stuff nice and early, and dominating the sky between levels 2-7. But luckily their not the only ones! Yes the A6m Type ZEROs. Yeah the Japanese unlock the first Zero pretty early, but the iconic A6m3 and A6m4 Zeros that we all know from pearl harbor are not till after lvl7 >= But in the mean time the A6m2-N is close enough and plenty deadly. Not very fast, but very maneuverable (don't try to dogfight this one! you'll get destroyed!). Easy enough to take down those Spitfires that everyone seems to love... as long as they're dumb enough to stay in fight, if they try to run on you, there is no way to catch them. So hit em hard, and hit em fast.
OUINWAI, I've been destroying with my A6m2-N Going 5-0 most games. I'm getting addicted to this again. I just wish more Iconic planes where lower ranked. One day I'll get up enough level to use the P-51 Mustang <3 Just BTW the A6ms use cannons and guns, which are really hard because they have different drop rates, and the cannons run out of ammo before the guns, which means after the first guy you take out you'll be juggling reloads... it takes some getting used to @-@

butttt, i mostly ran into people and got cursed a lot xD
Tips:
Altitude! go high at the start and dive into the enemy. Speed is power, and altitude will get you there!
Fire and retreat, there is power in numbers so stick around friendlies, go in shoot up a guy and when he turns to his friends you should disengage
Fire in short bursts and only when absolutely on target.
if someone looks like they're going to ram you, Go up!
Once you unlock more/better planes the game gets much much better X3 I suggest the Brits, they get OP planes early on, but a good pilot is better then a good plane, so practice is key! X3
Or when you can Use Bombers they're so slow and stiff, the only way people would hit you is if they did it on purpose (which most people wont!) and not to mention they can take a hit... or 80. I mean it's almost impossible for just one person to take out a bomber.
