Hey guys, got the 4th episode of my As Luck may have it series for you today, in which we fly the P-38L. Some great defensive flying in there, defying a fire, and killing with only one wing ;) Hope you enjoy the episode :) if you did, do like comment and subscribe. It makes a big difference for the channel! :)
Jengar use the G-91 italian net ;)
I dont have it yet ;) im a normal human with a job and a kid and all the other stuff that is life, i cant grind this stuff out in less then a week like some do ;) If i get 5-6 games on any particular day im happy.
That La-11 kill mustve felt so satisfying
It most definitely did ;)
That was some brilliant defensive flying
Thank you mate! :)
That guy who was running off at the mouth to you. I had him on my team the other day. He was stealing kills and mocking me for not having any kills. I told him I only had assists because he kept stealing my kills. He got mad that I spoke the truth, and as I was on final approach to land at the base and reload - he team killed me. So I reported his ass for a deliberate team kill. I have not seen him since. I hate people like him. They truly disgust me. Anyway, back to the topic. I hate twin engine fighters. I find them too bulky and too difficult to play. I prefer fast and highly maneuverable fighters. Therefore, I rarely if ever, take out a twin engine fighter. Good match.
Michael R. Foreman i hate people like that as well, i mean who doesnt? What i have noticed is that there are lots of teamkilling asshats lately, especially in tier iii Allied teams. I mean who does that? Who has joy in ruining other peoples experience?
Michael R. Foreman and who was it? Not that i report somebody "innocent"
The P-38 is not your average twin-engine fighter :)
There is accidental team killing. Which usually occurs when some moron is trying to steal a kill and, gets in the way. Then there are the ones who are living brain donors/ mental midgets, who do it deliberately. I make a point of reporting those who deliberately team kill. I have in addition, on far too many times witnessed the one doing the team killing are people of authourity within Gaijin (they work for Gaijin is some capacity). They seem to think they are above the law. I make a special point of raising hell about them directly to Gaijin.
you should try the P-38L, it doesnt feel like a twin engined fighter :)
So I knew I had some fundamental flaw in the way I dogfight that lead me to have more losses than victories in each dogfight, and watching this video finally made me realize my flaw: I never aim my circle at a target once they are on my 6. I was wondering how you were maneuvering and looking at the enemy at the same time and now I realize that you're maneuvering in the direction of the enemy plane to perform better maneuvers, know where the enemy is, and get your guns on target faster. As soon as I realized this I jumped into War Thunder and test flew to try to practice it. After practicing for 30 min I jumped into a match and I immediately noticed and improvement in my dog-fighting capabilities. I really want to say thank you for showing me that tip with the epic dog fight you had with that La-7. That was honestly one of the most intense matches I've ever seen in WarThunder. Well played and thank you. Now all I need to do is work on my aim. lol
glad to hear it mate! You should watch more of my video's then, this was far from my most intense battle ;)
I believe it. I will stay tuned.
First he was blaming you then he was blaming Gaijin them he was blaming his guns..... funny.
Some people can't accept their own shortfalls. It's always someone else's fault.
Yeah definitely, this is the definition of a pilot that will never improve, because he will never blame his own knowledge or skills for the death.
Gregory Engberg or be like, blame yourself feel bad and never touch RB again
He could take this as an opportunity to improve his play. Or arcade might be a good home for him, like many others enjoy.
arcade wont be good for these players either, as that takes skill and a willingness to improbve as well to perfect :)
Passive?? Well you just fly the p-38 like a good pilot should. Those dogfights are very nice mate. I am trying and trying to improve on that.
Cheers for a very nice video 👍
You're welcome trigger :) and good going, practice makes perfect!
Hey JENGAR....The fact that you could fight that long against the La-7 in a P-38 was amazing. It was like watching a race against a corvette and a dually pickup truck but you still made that La-7 look bad. I bet he was so pissed he couldn't shoot you down quick!👍😎✈
cheers mate :)
What a great fight love killing the gobby ones lol and a nice touch at the end there :)
Cheers mate :)
Nice defensive flying. You always make it look so easy. I can hardly look around and maneuver at the same time. :D And boy was that some salt again in the chat.
Absolutely love your content for the analysis' you do and for the more humourous approach. Keep it up!
Thank you sir, much appreciated :) And yeah, that guy was salty!
No luck involved there, pure skill as always Jengar...Just flown this plane and it got so much better with the 50 cal buff, gonna be flying it a lot more often! Hope to see more videos like this one, cheers m8
ty mate, and you will! :)
Great video man! It was fun flying with ya! Take care buddy!
Cheers mate :) was fun indeed!
Best of Defensive flying i ve seen in RB. Kudos! Making me Fell like not all is lost, since I fail brutally on defensive. Good Job.
Thanks Lt Casey! practice, practice, practive is the name of the game.
Great Video as usual Jengar! Keep it up :)
Cheers mate :) Will do! :)
You are too passive Jengar :p Great stuff like always. I'm watching your videos almost from beginning and it's really fun for me. Especially when You must fight the whole team alone, I always loved that kind of matches in War Thunder. Winning that style is so satisfying. Greetings from Poland!
Haha, thank you mate, also for being here from almost the beginning! Those 1 versus many matches are indeed great, both to play and to rewatch :)
Well well Mr J Engar. THAT was one of the most fun videos I have watched for ages. Well worth the entrance fee for sure. Some brilliant flying (not just from you, I hasten to add) and the comments... well. Invite him to another match and promise to turnfight in a 335, see if he accepts? Honestly, I swear that some people forget that ultimately it's a game. Pride yes, real machines and real lives lost, no!! Thanks anyway, great stuff.
Ty sir, glad you enjoyed :) it was indeed pretty funny, with him continueing on obviously not knowing how a p-38 should be flown, but keeping up the pretence that he did. With some funny exchanges troughout.
That was some cool flying mate.
Thanks mate!
Wow that was some great dogfighting! The guy in the chat must've really been frustrating to deal with though lol.... Always blaming something else for their own mistakes. As you said, those pilots will never improve because they can't acknowledge that they're the one who's flying badly.... As always, great video Jengar. I enjoyed it a lot! :)
Glad to hear it mate :) and indeed, selfreflection is an important trait, not only in war thunder, but also in life!
my favorite jengar episode, love the drama, epic dogfights, 10/10
Damn it nothing to watch on youtube, oh jengar just uploaded something! time to watch! Jengar u allways bring good shit on youtube :)))
Thank you sir! :)
The p-38 is modeled incorrectly in this game, it should be an absolute beast in this game considering how effective it was in combat in ww2 and beyond. No other aircraft could beat a p-38 with an experienced pilot.
i know, its unfortunate. Even as she is, she can be made to work miracles.
watching you fly this beauty makes me want to get it! I kinda regret skipping it. I'm missing out
you should definitely get it, its fantastic :)
Nice one again man! I always love discussions with players that dislike you flying a boom 'n zoomer as should ;)
ty mate, definitely ;)
Lol, love your videos brother, thank you.
Great to hear mate, Thanks!
Nice video from the beginning to the end.
Ty sir!
Sweet! I was affraid that we are going to get only italian videos from you till you done with the tree :). Also, taunting is a legit tactics. You admitted yourself that it worked on you, if you were a worse pilot, he would get you where he wanted you. The lesson you gave him is very satisfying :).
Do you have time to play any other games? Ive seen your Hearts of Iron videos, probably the least youtube friendly game ever made ;). Maybe you could show us a small compilation of your favourites?
Atm i play nothing else, i lack the time. But i love strategy games like HoI, although i liked 3 better then 4 ;) Civ 5 and 6 i also played. And other paradox strategy games like stelaris and EU4.
Then I can recommend Crusader Kings :). Its the Paradox best in my opinion :).
i've played that, didnt like it as much as most other paradox titles ;) cant argue taste :)
thx jengar loved this vid as always.
Glad you did jair! ty :)
Lelelel I sprinkle my fries with the salt of trashtalking ppl when I shoot them down, you handed it down to him like a boss sir ;)
Thank you mate :) its quite satisfying indeed :)
Amazing 1 wing kill
ty sir! :)
i didnt know it had airbrakes!!! i flew it out yesterday had 1 kill, now i have to fly it again. nice turn rate. i had a guy get mad at me for flying high. and he got jumped at sea level. i had fighters high i was engaging he shouldve climbed. goof ball.
Yep, crazy to complain about a guy doing what he's supposed to do in a particular plane :)
That tavid dude is so salty lol
very salty indeed :)
man i love ur style
Thanks mate! :)
Jengar your welcome :)
:D
AWESOME!
Thank you daniel! :)
...Solo wing pixy ladies and gentlemen!
Pixies ftw!
Great video Jengar as always you don't disappoint . I have a quick question about your maneuvers that I think would help me tremendously. How are you able to keep a visual on your enemy while he's on ur 6 and still be able to perform maneuvers to get him off you may have a hard time understanding my question but @ 3:42 you execute exactly what i'm attempting to ask . thanks in advance for your feedback and again great content !!
Ty mark, you got to practice flying with keyboard while looking with the mouse. Activate camera with c and take over with the mouse. Practice this in testflights, then try it out in matches. This will cause you deaths a lot at first, but keep at it and you'll get better and better :)
Thanks Jengar for the feedback I will definitely give this a go !!
good luck!
Too many videos these days, don't even have the time to watch them all ! :P
As usual, thank you for your reviews.
P.S : here is another reason why I don't put the chat on my screen xD
np mate :) Make more time ;)
great stuff jengar loool dont know how you do it !! see ya in the killing fields
practice, practice , practice, and im not done or perfect yet ;)
I looked up that super salty player in the La-11... female player, best record in the La series of fighters, probably just used to USAF pilots trying to turn with her... damn people get salty when they go up against actual experienced players who know how to fight
yeah mate, it can be very funny those exchanges ;)
I ended up accidentally teamkilling Murdoc today while flying my La-7B...I apologized to him and he threw a hissy fit but after watching your video I really shouldn't have :) I also think I've killed that Wickedile guy before...he went headon with my Meteor F4 in a mixed battle in his Hunter and he still lost...
Some people need to chill out when they don't just kill everything in one pass or, when they run into a player like you who knows what they are doing and make a mistake that gets their ass handed to them. Fights with good players are the ones I live for and the reason why I still come back to War Thunder every once in a while. I can understand why some people don't like losing, but they should treat it as a learning experience instead of being a fucking bitch and whinging about it so that they don't end up losing again by making what could very well be the same mistake that got them killed the first time.
Anyway, I hope you are doing well and I also hope that these people either suck it up and change their attitude or leave. And I would very much like to see the door hit their ass hard on the way out :)
more ppl should indeed see it as a road to an endgoal, and every bad moment as an oppertunity to learn. good point ;)
if you had held on the throttle for a little longer in the first engagement that guy wiuld have overshot. and i had a good laugh seing you turn fighting with a p38.
got to have fun sometimes!
10:27 anyone else think that was an epic maneuvers?
epic indeed! masterclass.
Some days I just turn off chat...for this very reason! Great flying mate!
Also, What do you think about NmY having a facebook group so we
can share our funny moments, epic games ss and video's with our squadron mates?
Ty mate! :) We have discord for that right? ;)
hello jengar.how are you my friend? btw very nice video
Hey Dimitrios! Doing fine mate ty! and you?
I'm very well thanks mate. I want ask you somethink and I don't now how make it that. I want join with your squadron.can I apply ?
sure, application is free, we do have behaviour rules in the squadron ;) like we dont start flaming wars in chat, or attck ppl verbally for flying a certain way.
Ok. I agree on the rules, although no matter when you are deeply in the game, human error is also justified. Used team speak?
only a few times, consitent flamers and troublemakers are removed eventually ;) we use discord.
Yeah, it really bugs me that, even if the reports don't really mean anything, the turnfight "meta" is so baked into people's minds that to them not throwing an unsuitable aircraft balls-deep into it means you're a "coward" and "playing passively" and deserve to be reported. XD Great job slapping that whiner's shit, Jengar. Gotta love that fork-tailed devil. ;)
This long legged lady is indeed fantastic :) and that this is considered that way by a lot of ppl is unbelieveble, it tells us how much educating we still have to do.
Yoo Tail Of P38L make the plane weak, ez to kill with FW
Most pilots make it easy ;)
nice flying! I love this plane. I have a quick question. which is better I-185 (m-71) or the la-7. thanks
Jason Hudspeth La 7 for sure
eze quiel ok thanks
LA7 for the mid to low altitudes, but the I-185 is good at higher altitudes. In the end i would prefer the la7 all round though.
nice defensive fly'n!.. just got new cannons on my ki 200, would you go for engine, or cover next ?
Last First I'd do engine
Id do cover as that improves the overall handling and energy retention of the aircraft
thats what i was thinking... but cover is tempting too.... i got expert crew.. that helps lots with blackouts/and whatnot..
i went engine.. that 7.3 mps climb rate got me... but you might be right with cover being better first
really depends on what you'd want to prioritize personally ;)
>passive player
>strafes
Just testflown the P-38L. My god, this thing is amazing! It's fast, looks stunning, great climb rate, accelerates fairly well and rolls very good. I don't know how it can roll this well honestly. And it has airbrakes. Yes! airbrakes on a prop fighter! But it's landing gear is very fragile to be honest. But the question is, why the flying fuck does this plane not get spammed? But more importantly, why the ACTUAL flying fuck haven't i researched it yet?
It's not spammed, because most ppl try to turnfight with it at mid to low altitude ;) something its not made for. ppl die in it a lot, and conclude its crap, instead of learning to to fly it properly.
Jengar its really annoying. People dont climb and turnfight in US props.... sigh. Seeing a lawnmowing Mustang tilts me so hard, it doesnt matter if i play the Germans or Americans/Brits. And they always say something like "The Mustang could outturn a 109, this is BS, Gaijin pls nerf Germans, Gaijin pls lower the Br!"
hehe, indeed mate :)
It sucks that they nerfed that aircraft, I mean it's still viable but now it's way harder to fly, roll rate was reduced.
It CAN still fly one one engin, but of any part of the wing turns yellow your not gonna have an easy fly back to base.
The rudder is now a tiny bit retarded so that even at it's optimal speed the pilot will not use it to full effect while aiming, so good luck landing clean shots like Jengar here. Also I think this is also effected by the rudder, the roll on this thing is akward, when rolling flat, your nose will shift, meaning the roll of the aircraft is not even in the center of the aircraft (where it should be) and more so feels like it's above the cockpit, iv missed shots because of this.
It use to be a fun and pretty good plane, but now it's pretty much now a pure boom and zoomer.
Also, have a nice day everyone, this has been me ranting on about stupid stuff in a videogame.
What do you think about this plane’s air spawn?
I hate those American twin engine fighters. Strictly because they just eat 20mm. The last one I shot was a P-61 or P-63? Anyway I blew it's rudder in half and took a wing off and it still didn't die. I left him figuring he was a dead man but he managed to turn the plane around and someone kill stole him and I didn't even get the assist. Yet if I get my wing blown off in a 109 or so much as take a single 50 I'm set on fire or killed instantly. Not to mention some of them have back gunners. They're so annoying to play against.
None of the P-38s do NOT fit my play style and I always do miserably in them - therefore, I never fly them.
i do love them i have to say.
Hi Jengar - would you mind answering a question? Got my exam tomorrow and then a week's work and then I'm going to start playing. But I need to know a few things - like what you do with a roll rate? And why is it important? :)
Rollrate is the rate at which the plane can roll over its central axis. this is an important part of your maneuverability, you can change direction faster and react faster when ppl are on your six when your rollrate is high :)
Thanks mate. Obviously I have a lot to learn. :)
np :)
if I had the altitude and energy advantage in a better turning plane and still get murked by a 1 winged plane I would uninstall war thunder for awhile lol.
hehe ;)
Hi any advice on what fighter to start out with in realistic with the British?
Have been playing arcade on PS4 for years now have almost everything 5.3
And started to dip my toe in realistic.
(Even bought that premium spitfire was waiting for years for the 60% off and got it, but not flown it)
Been getting kills in the Beaufort but want to get back into a fighter soon and I think your guides a bit dated.
Any advice would be great, can't really change nations now crews are maxed out in most slots.
Thanks
MarkLar 1979 for getting into realistic i'd say try the first spits, they are really good but you also need to pay attention
Markus Wiedner thanks for your reply, just trying to stay at a low battle ratting for now so I don't get slaughtered.
the early hurricanes can be fun as well. but yeah the spits are nice too.
Jengar thanks I'll try tonight
enjoy! :)
like number 300
300?
teach me how to fly like you.
Watch the vids, and practice. Im working on another tutorial ;)
A passive player? What does that mean?
This might be late but it means a person that doesn’t engage with the enemy and instead just runs away from enemy.
Jengar...you are aware the P-38L has airbrakes right?
i do, mentioned it in the vid, should have used them against the last la7 ;)
You didnt really use them lol
only very rarely would i want to give up speed, but the la7 situation warrented it.
Ahh, the P38L is a good plane anyway haha
true that :)
haha! the not so good players are always like that. always blame the decent players on their own mistakes. I just find it fulfilling as I laugh at their lamentations and tears
Damn right! :)
they must have messed with the flight model, now it rips around 700mk/h..
i'll have to revisit then ;)
@@jengar6258 pls do, it used to be my favoourite Ligtning, you could put it into a steep dive and outrun practically everything, boosters, air brakes n all, now they basically took away all its advantages
FIRST
nice 1 :)
