The merest presence of the mighty Fulcrum causes the pathetic capitalist airframes to fall apart of their own accord! Great video as always and nice to see some footage of the top dog in the server. That R-27 shot on the sabre, while a bit mean, was pretty cool and very sneaky!

You wouldn't need to keep locking/unlocking a target to avoid showing on RWR, the MiG29A has a TWS mode (Ralt+I), only caveat is that you need to set the aspect of the target (Rshift+I) between hot or cold, doesn't work on a flanking target. The MiG29S even adds a two-targets auto-launch TWS when using R77s.
TWS doesn’t seem to mark their actual location on the HUD though, that’s the issue for me. It also doesn’t seem to let you swap the lock type without dropping them first and I don’t want to lose them at closer range whilst transitioning back to STT.
Hi bullet. In regard to the turning issue .. i noticed a short while ago that one of the flaming cliffs aircraft has the left and right engine start controls inverted .. i think it was a mig but i cant be sure without loading it up ... but at the time i checked the controls list and left said left but was actually starting the right when you looked at the actual aircraft and the opposite with the other one. It certainly made for interesting taxi with only one engine on
@@fa-ajn9881 I don’t even know what stopped it; unless it’s something to do with running on one engine. Maybe I should start the right one first and compare… Regardless, I’m going to avoid stopping in hangers again unless you can fit wheel chocks to FC3 jets, haven’t tried before.
Good vid. u might already know but the mig 29 has multiple stages of burner on full burn sure u have like 3 mins but on a lower stage of burner u get extra thrust for a more economical fuel usage to extend airtime which can be helpful in a merge and can help rely less on being able to spot an enemy first
@@Bullet4MyEnemy You can use the lights that come on on the right hand side to tell if you're in burner and then you can just use the play between there and max throttle. Minimum burner when the lights only just come on is probably more than enough vs most of the cold war aircraft on ecw and it's even surprisingly economical for cruising at very high altitude.
Thanks for the vids, bullet. While GS does another UFO vs UFO, Ralphi's 5-hour adventures are few and far between, your content is perfect. No pretentiousness, good editing, good audio. Can't be bothered to play myself (haven't done since Lock On days), but i love watching good players play well.
The first or the second A10A could be me. At least in this clip: 2:27, I remember dodging a missle of an MiG29 first and then going vertical in my A10 (which completely messed me up), just to be killed by the guns. Do you have any chance of finding out the username of the A10a in the second clip. I'm just curious if it was me or not. But no need to.
@@Bullet4MyEnemy I think I found it on the Heatblur Discord Server, in the "-server-chat-". The message says: RED player Dodge 1-3 | Bullet in MiG-29A killed BLUE player Apple 1-1 | Apfxlkuchen in A-10A with Cannon/Bomblet. Ig I really was in this video
@@UnderTaker2OO3 It’s from the recently renamed Heatblur Cold War server, and I get between 80-220fps depending on server load with everything maxed. It’s more down to the CPU than the 4070ti though, you’d probably manage the same with a 3090 if your GPU is current gen. When I initially switched to a 4070 I was still using a 3700X and I didn’t see much of a performance change at all between the 4070 and my 2070 Super. It was when I swapped the 3700X for a 7800X3D that I saw massive gains.
@@Bullet4MyEnemy thx alot for explaining I'm going with Ryzen 7 7700x and 4070ti so I think I'm in the clear...also didn't know heatblur had servers...
I’m not really present enough to fully understand the game balance adjustments just by looking at the change logs, are there any aircraft you think are going to dominate or get ruined off the back of them? I’ve watched Defyn’s video to get the gist in relation to RB but I don’t really play to grind anymore so if the balance is whack I’ll just play something else that isn’t so put upon.
@@Bullet4MyEnemy Basically everything from 10 to 13.7 (new ceiling) gets decompressed. Some people complain as usual but the majority should actually benefit from the changes.
The F-4 radar isn't very good at detecting or consistently locking anything flying below it. The pilot/ Jester probably couldn't even really keep you picked out from the ground clutter.

The only FF airframe I want more than MiG23 is MiG29. Love it. Pairs of 29s flying over my house got me into aviation. Great video!
It's on it's way! :D :D
The 29 is one of the sexiest jets out there, in my mind. Just aesthetically, i prefer the 2-seater for some reason.
I agree on it being one of the best looking, but it’s rare I prefer a two seat version of anything.
@@Bullet4MyEnemy MiG-29M is what you're looking for my friend
@@Bullet4MyEnemyThe F-14?.. ;)

I love that you added the startup and taxy, to kick off the video. The 29 is a beast.
"I feel a little bit robbed."😂
The unintended movement of the MIG29 inside the hangar was caused by the wall-mounted fan blowing air at the tail.

How can you tell which stage you’re using?
@@Bullet4MyEnemy You can use the lights that come on on the right hand side to tell if you're in burner and then you can just use the play between there and max throttle.

@@Bullet4MyEnemy there is a light that come on and you can sometimes tell from the engine sound

Great plane if you know how to use it. Fuel also if you menage engine on 87%
MiG 29 on ECW is very fun to play, but I hate when server reset and you lost the points.
Yeah, it really nearly fucked me over during recording for this; I actually retained them during one reset so I’m not sure how it even works
Thanks for the shout out mate 😎😎😎

what server were you on?

Enigma’s Cold War - now known as Heatblur’s Cold War
What skin is that?
I forget, but I want to say it’s called “Dorma” or something - I’ll try and remember to check and update you afterwards

They took over Enigma’s server about a month ago
why MIG-29s never get credited? happened 3 times on enigma, and i don't think the pilots are disconnecting to deny a fake internet point
