Chase, one BIG thing that you forgot to mention in this video, the barrage ability WILL FRIENDLY FIRE and shoot down any allied aircraft in the box, both yours or an allied players. So if you have 2 fighter squadrons engaged with an enemies fighter squadron, and you're going to win the fight. Don't try to come in and barrage with a third fighter squadron, you'll destroy the enemies planes but you'll shoot down all of your own aircraft too.
+EriktheRedstone Thanks for this. I was wondering if you could shoot down friendly aircraft.
+EriktheRedstone he does actually mention this at the end
Nice video! Never learned about this until I shouted in a game "fcking op fighters destroy all my planes in 2 sec" and someone taught me about it :P
+Wendell Wu XD hopefully now more people will know
+Wendell Wu I had the exact same thing. I almost ragequit that game in my Hosho because I got so frustrated :D
No there isn't, I just learned of it the other day. As others have said, I thought the other CV player was OP/cheating some how. Never had my planes wiped out like that before, and 180 CV battles for me. He and another player said it was strafing, never heard of it, not in tut's at all.
But here it is, now I would like to appolagize for saying he was hacking.
TY for posting this.
I got to TierVIII cv without knowing this >.
This strafe ability has got to be one of the coolest in game. It was amazing to watching from my Montana which was about to be torpedoed. My friendly Midway saw my pleas for help and in seconds, two whole torp squadrons where in the waves with their torps still attached.
I really enjoy your Captain's Academy series. They have really helped me improve my gameplay. Your work is much appreciated!
+Dan O'Hanrahan :D you're very welcome
+Dan O'Hanrahan agreed
Awesome! I've been wanting to see something on this recently! I ended up strafing my own planes, and was (rightly) called a noob. Been trying to figure out how to handle having 2 fighter squadrons and managing them most effectively. Thanks!
Suggestion:
Make XP for shot down planes to grow exponentially. The more you shot down, the greater end game XP multiplier per planes shot down. The weaker AA you have, the greater multiplier you get. This will encourage CV escort.
Make DC part a passive gadget in which greatly reduced the time for putting out fire, stopping flooding, recovering damaged modules. Give player the option to trade DC party for other specialties with the risk of very long recovery time if hit. This will reduce timed HE spam because each fire will be put out with a limited a mount of time. Also this one button fix all makes 0 sense anyway.
WAS GOING TO ASK YOU TO MAKE THIS, WHEN I WENT TO YOU TUBE TODAY , NICE HINDSIGHT!
I need to watch the rest of your series so I can give carriers a go.
On an unrelated note, I was just in a match with you on my team about 10 minutes ago. SOOOOO glad I didn't stink the joint up ("Galaxygrunt", 4 kills, top of the table in my Mikhail Khutuzov on that open sea map. Only been playing like 2 weeks, so I can't remember the name).
Can't wait and see the Updated methods with the new pending mechanic coming
one of my fave tricks when facing enemy superior fighter force with strike loadout on IJN is to sacrifice one squadron to lock down 2-3 enemy squadrons, and then strafe entire "blob" , making basically 12-4 exchange :)
+ewok40k Yep , i tend to sacrifice my bomber squad to get theirs fighter .
Useful! THX!
I don't know before
you know, you can strafe enemy fighter without hitting your own by placing the crosshair at the very edge so that enemy planes are inside your strafe area but not your planes. Granted, hard to execute because your strafing fighter has to be at perfect position when your target fighter caught your other fighter or else you will took too long to find perfect position that the enemy CV might react by sending another fighter to intercept or their fighter would took down your "tank" fighter first before you got your strafing fighter into strafing position.
Oh btw fighter seems to strafe at different way depends on where they are when the command issued, it seems to affect the result too but I'm not entirely sure
Wow, how did I not know about this? I have CVs in both lines, tier 6 and 7! I feel so dumb :( This does explain how an IJN squadron did so much damage to my US fighters. I was attacking enemy bombers when IJN fighters came and took out 4 of my fighters out of no where in seconds, no idea how... well, now I do!
IChase have you ever thought about branching out to other venues, such as IL-2 Stalingrad, you are such a wonderful teacher.
As a clarifying note to others, barrage will kill any aircraft within the barrage box, friendly or not. i have lost my own squadrons and have accidentally killed friendly squadrons before i figured this out.
+Nicodemus Maximus Yeah, that is one hell of a big one, he just forgot to mention.
he touched on it, i just felt he didnt give enough emphasis to it so that it was clear.
Good video once again Chase. Gonna get my hands on a carrier soon and try it! ;)
+Joost van Eerd Have fun :D
+iChaseGaming is there a way to make sure they don't dodge? often when I try this the target just gets out of the way, then strafes me while my planes can't turn away
+iChaseGaming Hey Chase i have a problem with my fps even though i have a windows 10 (windows 7 graphics card) it still doesn't get over 10 could u help me find a solution ?
WarGaming removed strafing for tier 4 and 5 cv's. You'd need an Independence or Ryujo to do so.
Using barrage on enemy fighter scout may be beneficial as well. Especially so if the fighter scout is of a USN CA/BB or a grouped up ship(s) since getting caught in a dogfight with them and taking their AA fire can result in heavy fighter losses with how durable fighter scouts can be.
This benefits both side.
1) IJN torpedo bomber will be efficient only if they are stacked, so that's a very easy target.
2) Finally IJN paper airplane can kill some USN planes.
However, I had seen a video before 0.5.2, 20 Hak fighter vs 7 Mid fighter, 2 squad destroy other 2 left with 7 planes, even with the ability enable.
+Brian Lock (神通) so the japanese cvs are fucked over even more... .-.
Nguyen Johnathan
What?
It means Mid planes will dominant Hak planes even with fighter ability. At least before 0.5.2
Mid planes 7 in 0 out
Hak planes 20 in 7 out
Or my writing is so bad that you just don't know what I'm talking about?
Missing one of these while playing an IJN CV means you just lost all your planes. Succeed against a USN CV and you merely bought time until his next flight is up. Sometimes it works well, but when it fails man does it fail.
Great video, thanks a lot!
Great Info. Thanks
One other thing, don't barrage enemy fighters if they're chasing your own attack squads. Everything in the strafe cone is meat in the grinder.
It seemed pretty clear to me that you were warning that your ally's scout and your own planes will be lost if they're in your reticle. I don't know why people are saying you didn't.
I was wondering which tiers the strafing is restricted to, if any.
simple stuff,didn't mention how to intercept enemy when enemy started alt,which most people don't know how to do,even the one make video may don't know how to do too.the two tips is prevent die of your aircraft,but there is still one tips that make enemy can't alt.= =
this patch of uss cv are good for attacking enemy planes,but if enemy almost started or started alt,you should rotate and make a circle,then enemy plane won't kill any one of our plane.i don't know is it u don't want to teach the top skills or you don't know.
but fine this guide is ok.well played .
so thank you, Finally i can destroy entirety fighters from ryujo
great video，great teaching
Great video as always, , sold my crappy cvs after a month of a certain patch...Liked anyways.
I wonder if the other players get to actually witness 20 planes falling from the sky in one go...
very much appreciated - thnx
I was playing CV's for most of the night and on several occasions had this happen to me wondering. WTF! Now I know!...Thanks for the know how Chase!...
+Tzar Kizitski You're welcome! :D
You can't strafe in T4/T5 Cv's.Pin this to let those T4 and T5 cv's user know.
You make it look so easy.. Are those staged in training room or a genuine sky strafe?
Time to try my cv
Nice vid man!
Yeah, I just ran into this for the first time today too, thought he had to have some cheat because everything sent down so fast. So I did my research first.
why does the ammo not drop or goes empty at 3:46?
when i do this strike my hunters loose ALL ammo he has,also when its fully armed,1 such strike and all ammo is lost,but not 1 loss of ammo when you do that,why?
Strange thing, however, is that after I do a strafing run, when I hold ALT again the box don't show it's just the circle. It will take awhile before the box shows up again. (This is after a strafing run with full ammo)
I heard about it but I thought it was shooting at ships to damage modules are set fire, this is far better
Hey Chase! Greetings from Germany.
+Jonas Thiele Guten tag :D
Do you have any CV videos for the Hosho? I noticed the one for the Langley which is my next to watch.
so that is how you use Strafing, and here I was using it against Ships...
and Hosho is still disastrous. I wonder if there any idea how to play Hosho
Hi Chase,
I have a question, I haven't found an answer to, so far. Are my fighters some kind of vulnerable after a strafing run?
I encountered the problem, that my fighters got involved in a dogfight right after an (more or less missed) strafing run.
I had the impression, they didn't defend themselfs for estimatly 10-15 seconds. By then half of them were shot down and the fight was lost. That happened multiple times. Maybe, either it's a bug or some kind of cooldown. Did someone else make similar experiences?
hey chase, not to rush you, but when can we expect the next nautical tales episode?
Nice i am new to CV Captain now have Boque Tier 5 and problem is to lunch torps just dont now what i should press which button to aim correctly!
+M A T R I X
hold alt and place an attack run
come to an enemy ship from the side and place the attack run a bit in front of it.
and the start of the green area a bit away from it (usually around the same distance as its width).
keep training with it and u will do well.
try to make the enemy start getting into that area when the torps hit the water (more or less depending on his speed).
cobrazax Tnx man!!
+M A T R I X
if u need more advice let me know.
when i started i watched several vids about it to know how to do it, and it was hard at the first 2 battles, but then it became much easier.
the torpedoes arm as soon as their triangle icon appears on map, so try to place the drop so they arm close to the target for minimum evasion time.
cobrazax Tnx again i will practice in battles it is easier when someone tell what to do!
+M A T R I X
i watched vids about this, u can find them on youtube too.
focus battleships as much as u can as they are the easiest target to hit.
check the loading screen for enemy stats and focus the battleships with the weakest AA first if u can.
u can also focus carriers but when they got good AA its dangerous.
with US carriers i recommend using the starting plane loadout, as i think having fighters AND torp bombers is a basic need for any carrier.
for max damage, when u got dive bombers AND torp bombers, u can try to make a combo.
start a fire/flooding with 1 attack, then hit with another attack and cause fire/flooding, AFTER the enemy uses their damage control party, and it goes on cooldown. for battleships the usage time can be up to 20 secs. causing flooding is now much harder but its deadly if they cant repair it.
u can do that with the tier 6 carrier if u want.
also learn how to use strafe alt fighter attack as shown in this video. it can be devastating if done properly.
hey ichase are you thinking about a Yamato review I'd love to know what upgrades and skills to kit my Yamato out with
+Paul Hughs Need more games with the Yamato before commenting :)
+iChaseGaming awesome thank you also thanks for making this video I was wondering why my bombers were just imploding
Come on people, let's get more likes, the average is 10% of the total number of views.
Let's see if we can beat that.
i acidently stumbled upon this function XD, i pressed alt on my fighters. and i was like what does this do, i tried it and understood... made a few mistakes at begaining though
why doesn't this work for the tier 5 zuiho? Pressing alt just brings up ship info
thnx man! I am now a better fighter!
How to dodge my own torpedo & dive bombers? It is the most disturbing thing for me to be a CV player. So, I have to put a fighter behind my bombers.
Sometime when my fighter about to perform a strafing run i change theirs entry point , the fighter will not strafe a straight line but do a spin instead , short range but can catch the enemy from left or right . Can you research about this a bit ?
I really want to use fighters in WoWS but i cant because WARSHIPS not WARPLANES
thanks chase. is it worth plane hunting yet when it comes to XP and credits?
nope, not at all
+christopher tucker Might be with 0.5.3 where there will be a general focus on AA and support play.
chase, how can i send you a replay ? i have a very , very , very nice game with yamato vs 5 ships alone and sinking em
Does this have to be turned on in a setting? My Alt key just shows additional info on ships in the game
I pray none of the CVs I play against see this. 3/4 don't know how to strafe or how to avoid it. I usually get accused of hacking several times a day. This is exactly why I decided not to sell my T5 CV haha.
Except for IJN fighter, the barrage effectiveness is annoyingly random. I barrage US squadron and down 4 planes out of 7. His leftover 3 planes still kill my 4 IJN planes
+H Ng yeah, that is something i am still waiting for WG to fix. it would make sense to have smaller squadrons if the planes were better but they are smaller and worse. plus the IJN carriers have fewer spares. the langley gets 12 fighters but IJN only gets 8
soooo... i hold Alt key then that box thing appear?? well im my case it didnt appear maybe there are problem on my controls or other... my alt key is "Alternative Battle Interface mode" i hold the Alt key then theres no green box appeared
cant straf in T4 and T5 cvs
tell the people ''Only aircraft carriers Tier VI and above can engage in strafing runs ''
Chase I tried holding alt and it wouldn't work. I couldn't find the control for it in the settings menus please help
cant straf in T4 and T5 CVs anymore as of 3 months ago i believe
Mine doesn’t do that it just shows the name of the ships plz help
I wish you can't barrage your own planes (I am IJN CV). It's really stupid mechanic to kill your own planes.
+Ender MX Well, there's got to be some kind of downside :P
+Ender MX if there wasn't any friendly fire it would stupidly OP. Just lock the enemy planes down with something and strafe away. Or let him attack a bomber squadron and then strafe over them.
It's there so that people don't go full Barrage on everything at any time.
Hi Ichasegaming how do you create a training box?
Aslain's mod pack has a training room enabler :)
At what range do they start doing damage to the enemy though, as in how close do they have to be or can they hit any part of the targeted area from any point while strafing?(aside from behind them ofc)
+The Hungry Wolf 足柄 Unknown, but from what I can tell a pretty sizable distance away
+The Hungry Wolf 足柄 they start doing straffing damage as soon as they open fire to anything imediatly in front of the planes. so anything in the air and within the bullet animations will take damage friend or foe.
***** The range extends farther than the bullet animations, you can even see that in the video.
yes its a bit past the animation of the bullets, but not that much. i was just using it as the simplest method of explaining it.
is this disable for tier four carrier?
that's what i think too
ok UA-cam, I see how it's gonna be, stop telling me when Chase uploads a video so I can't get first comment. smh
+Storm Zerx :)
well mostly this applies to US CV IJN CV are just weak at strafing :/
Thanks for the video. It's an idiot game mechanic though. It's random, very cheap to use with no risk, and destroys multiple squads at the same time in less time than I can count to three. It is joined into the forced game mechanic where planes are forced into a battle. No ship has to deal with that, and every ship has a long lead time to avoid the torp/bomber equivalent.
WoW could give us a critical fail, when someone tries this and THEY have an RNG chance to get wiped, ok I can live with that.
+Dave Scheffer Anytime ^^ but a mechanic is a mechanic :P and I gotta explain it
+iChaseGaming Again, thanks :) Not whining about you, just to you.
An bug/exploit, if the enemy fighters are on you... you can slip out and do the strafe against them while they cant do shit and be shot down... very poorly designed
Zits the most unrealistic feature of this game. Dog fighting don't work that way.
Its*
+Blue Steel It kind of does actually. Zoom and boom tactics are used by fighters against opposition which turn better but have less powerful engines. Ironically, considering the strafe is most important to IJN carriers in WoWs, it was mainly the US who used it against IJN Zeroes.
nah, it's nothing like that.
I'm waiting for someone to say "First"
+Statler Our Great Serbian God You're first :D
iChaseGaming Hey! That's pretty good.
haha ... Now, 1 Lexington can kill 1 Midway! im play Taiho win 100% Essex! CV JNP no1.The US aircraft carrier, crippled with Fighter JPN.
Players waiver CV USS.LOL. There are many changes to the balance. But WG did not want.
sorry for bad english!
Midway crying
Lel I did this and destroyed 12 torp bombers and 6 fighters
Please stop with the reticule, to avoid the ridicule... ok, sorry for that, but really, it's RETICLE, not RETICULE.
- reticle a network of fine lines, wires or the like, placed in the focus of the objective of a telescope
- reticule a small purse or bag, originally of network but later of silk
shooting your own planes, to kill 24 planes with 1 fighter squadron... this is the reason i uninstalled wows.
Other than your usual videos, this was just common knowledge. You simply showed the barrage ability, as if it was some crazy secret, that no one ever knew it existed. But this is as standard a CV action, as launching torps. Weirdly uninformative.
