I love the simplicity of your tutorials. I find them much easier to understand than most tutorials I’ve seen. Super helpful for my struggling combat performance! 🍻
Wonderful descriptive commentary, i've just switched over from Dual Joysticks to M+KB because of an motorcycle injury, it taken me a about a week to start feeling comfortable with the switch, and having to create an ever changing MKB Profile, but the accuracy and intuition i seem to have now in Pirate Swarm is an improvement over Joysticks for sure. Your ESP breakdown gave me a much needed grounding, and yes, there's a lot of tweaking there. I'm using 'Lead pip' more often than not, along with Gimbals, which im trying not to get to comfortable with. I'll checkout your other vids as i'm tweaking daily. Kudos
Sorry to hear about your injury. I hope you have a swift recovery! Hopefully the video can help ease your transition over to M&KB. Thanks for watching, more on the way!
I love the concept of those terminology cards. Now i don't have to google every word, and the video won't be slowed down. I wish everything had this option :D
Pretty cool, lowered my ESP zone from 8 to 4 because like you said i was undershooting alot, i now land on pip alot better. I could probably fine tune it a bit, but it does feel alot better.
Thank you. Learning the different application for the pips is beneficial. I didn't realise there was a button option to enable swapping. Do now and making the change.
I really appreciate your ability to describe and explain all the concepts. Specifically the lead/lag pips, it’s always been confusing with people on both sides recommending one over the other, rather than using both in their specific scenarios.
Another great guide, Noodle!! The only thing I would add is to re-visit your ESP, curves, and other control settings every few months. As your skill increases and flying style evolves, you may find ESP fighting you again. Also, loved hearing you say to record. After action debrief is a thing in military and law enforcement for a reason. What did we do right? What can we do better? These are the questions to ask when watching. You can see so much more on the playback than when engrossed in combat.
Really good breakdown of the topic with simple and easy to understand explanation. Helped a lot to understand what things mean and what to fiddle with when learning space combat.
Thanks for this! I'm never going to be a dedicated combat pilot but I'd like to get the basics down. So far your videos are a bit easier to follow than some others I've seen!
Have been keeping my eye on your for a while but this vid is the one that made me hit sub. The amount of effort that went into putting this together is obviously quite high, and your delivery is paced just right. A+⭐️ will watch again.
I just got started in dog fighting and had no idea ESP did that. Been struggling with my crosshair feeling "sticky" so glad to see how to rectify that.
Nice explaining of this, had seen other videos and were confused how on earth they were aiming with the pip seeming to trail behind where they were aiming - now I get it
This is actually my first video on your channel now that I''m trying to get better at pvp and WOW the terminology cards are so helpful! One of the reasons I struggled to watch AvengerOne for awhile is because he'd use terms I had never heard and it just made things 100x more confusing. This is a super helpful and incredibly compact video. Good work!
Grateful this video popped up on my recommended videos. Husband and I have been trying to figure out how to set up our sensitives so we can fight better.
I needed to hear this pip discussion. I was getting so lazy and set in my lag pip ways. The right tool for the right job! Now give me some manoeuvres to mix with this aim!
Great quality video! Being an absolute combat noob - let alone pvp - I've never put much thought in my humble t16000 joystick settings as I felt pretty overwhelmed by the plethora of settings to go through. But your clear cut guide gave me the confidence to finally get round tweaking my settings. And hopefully achieve something more then crashing with style in my next dogfight. ^^
Thanks Noodle!!! Youve inspired me to work on my PIP settings...something I've been avoiding since 2016! You've explained it so well, I have no choice but to set it all up now!
WOW, instant like and subscribe! I have been playing this game for 2 weeks now and the amount of questions I have and the unavailability of answers is just mind buggingly insane. I kid you not, I watched hours of videos trying to find out some of these explanations you masterfully laid out in just a few minutes! Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU! 🙏
Welcome aboard! If you have any questions feel free to hop into my Discord. I'm working on a basic flight maneuvers video next, which you will probably find helpful. Make sure you're subbed!
This video series really helps a new combat pilot understand both the on information on screen (which can be confusing/overwhelming) and how to utilize it to their advantage. Thanks for taking the time to break down the basics of combat and the different controller types. Also would like to add the pacing of the information is spot on and is easy to follow. Well done!
I've always used LAG pip but after this video, you've given me a new appreciation for the LEAD pip and benefits!!! Keep these great videos coming Moist Noodle...!
Noodle, these videos are well done dude, keep it up. I also use the method of momentary ESP, by binding ESP toggle to my second-stage trigger, where it is always off, unless firing. Also lead/ lap pip switching is very useful, as you have demonstrated here. Lead Pip at intercept/ long ranges is a good visual aid for getting the correct geometry to get to the merge, & switching to Lag Pip when pushing in at knife-fight ranges.
Thanks MN! I can't believe I didn't already have you on my subscribed list. I've seen many of your videos and interviews with other streamers. Anyway, great video and I'm going into AC right now to practice/set up. Cheers!
I switched to lag about a week after I started playing the game and find it far easier to use, but I know it's all preference. I've been playing for about a month now and love the game. I'm looking forward to more videos, brotha.
Fairly new to dogfighting and this is super helpful - I hadn't really understood how to read the PIP before. Definitely waiting to see the manoeuvres video also!
I’m brand new to Star Citizen and found your video very informative. I’ll be moving into combat gameplay very soon and hope your video helps me out. Your video quality and attention to help the new players got me to hit the like and subscribe buttons. Looking forward to future videos and I’ll be going back through your channel uploads to see what I miss. Thanks so much!
This explanation can’t be more simple than you explained. Thanks, I’m more like cargo and exploring (that don’t exist yet), but now I’m on bounty hunt path….. you helped. Idea for new video: targeting specific part of ship that is weaker and how to change in fly that targeting. For example on cutlass I always target engine and send them to spiral 🌀 death 😇
I’ve definitely heard about tuning esp before but I’ve never had it broken down quite as well as you have. Thanks for the great info, gonna go out it to use and re-tune my esp! o7
Very educational video. I learned a lot of new things for myself, in particular, I didn’t know that you can switch PIP on the fly. Thank you very much!
Ah thank you so much, i've been looking through beginner bounty videos for days and this is the first one that has us excited/brave enough to get in there. It finally makes sense, liked and subscribed 🙌
The only way to get better at it is to just jump in. Die more to die less! Next video is about Basic Flight Maneuvers. Hopefully that one will help too!
Really good information here. I'm going to be tweaking my ESP settings, as I have seen the PIP bouncing away from my target quite a bit. Hopefully that will help! Thanks for the work you put into your videos, really great job.
Short and concise tutorial, really enjoyed it. I've been playing SC for years, but haven't really been interested in PVP until recently. Thanks for putting in the effort to make these o7
I think it's always important for people to understand WHY they need to do something, rather than just telling them what to do. That way they can work other things out for themselves.
Finally I think I understand ESP now. I think my setting was default and I have never touched it, probably one of reasons I couldn't hit water if I fell out of a boat. Also, I was today years old when I learned what pip stood for, and I never thought about it as not just for gun aiming.
There are so many settings in SC that it most never even touch them. I didn’t know what ESP was so never played with it. Now I have to figure out how much I like.
Hi everyone! Thanks for all the comments. I'm trying my best to get through them and answer any questions, please bear with me!
Thanks for the detail. I knew what a PIP was, but not the intricacies of how to use it effectively.
Man, I like the style of this video. Straight to the point, chill low fi music, and no puffing yourself up.
I love the simplicity of your tutorials. I find them much easier to understand than most tutorials I’ve seen. Super helpful for my struggling combat performance! 🍻

@@Moist_Noodle Oh its an old injury, just constant Joystick use seems to cause a flare up. Vids are just what i needed. Kudos
I love the concept of those terminology cards. Now i don't have to google every word, and the video won't be slowed down. I wish everything had this option :D
Pretty cool, lowered my ESP zone from 8 to 4 because like you said i was undershooting alot, i now land on pip alot better. I could probably fine tune it a bit, but it does feel alot better.
After a bunch of alt tabs and a few tries in AC i finally got my ESP just right, i feel way more in control of my aim now! keep up the good work man!
Glad it helped!
Well produced, well presented, extremely informative. I learned a few new things from this video. Well done, and much appreciated.
Thank you. Learning the different application for the pips is beneficial. I didn't realise there was a button option to enable swapping. Do now and making the change.

Now I finally understand how the Lag PiP works! Awesome info, thank you!

I have watched so many videos teaching about ESP, but only here I finally understand how to set it up!! Thank you a lot for that!!
Glad it helped!
Have been keeping my eye on your for a while but this vid is the one that made me hit sub. The amount of effort that went into putting this together is obviously quite high, and your delivery is paced just right. A+⭐️ will watch again.
Some of the best explanations for flight mechanics I’ve seen.
Quickly becoming my favorite star citizen guide channel.
Thank you for making this video , and for talking about things in a way that doesn't make it seem like you are talking down to the viewers
I just got started in dog fighting and had no idea ESP did that. Been struggling with my crosshair feeling "sticky" so glad to see how to rectify that.
Glad you’re making these videos! Always loved watching you on twitch, now we get you here! Hurray.
Thanks Noodle, your videos have really helped improve my ingame combat, my go to channel right now for SC learning
Nice explaining of this, had seen other videos and were confused how on earth they were aiming with the pip seeming to trail behind where they were aiming - now I get it

Been flying exclusively with lag pip, now i will be switching it up. Great guide! Thank you
I am glad to see someone explaining the difference and use for lead and lag pip I really had no idea how to use it
These videos are actually super helpful as a player just now getting into dogfighting. Thank you!
Grateful this video popped up on my recommended videos. Husband and I have been trying to figure out how to set up our sensitives so we can fight better.
I needed to hear this pip discussion. I was getting so lazy and set in my lag pip ways. The right tool for the right job! Now give me some manoeuvres to mix with this aim!
I've been getting lazy recently, making these videos has given be a boot up the butt.

But your clear cut guide gave me the confidence to finally get round tweaking my settings. And hopefully achieve something more then crashing with style in my next dogfight. ^^
Watched your other video on settings, and this one, because I've been working on getting better at dogfighting. They've both been super helpful!
Entering for that rambler. But your videos are so high-quality and to the point you got my sub from that alone. Thanks for this info!
Awesome video, dude. Especially the ESP explanation. Very concise and still super informative! Can't wait for the BFM video.
Thanks Noodle!!! Youve inspired me to work on my PIP settings...something I've been avoiding since 2016! You've explained it so well, I have no choice but to set it all up now!
Definitely jump into it and experiment! Have fun with it.
This is the first time I learned how to adjust ESP. It was very helpful. Thanks.
Seriously appreciate the time you took making this. Helpful info brother. gonna play with the pip settings for my 325a
I love the simplicity of your work. Appreciate it. Keep it going. You’re doing a great job

terminology cards are such an amazing idea - love how you put in the extra effort for that
Best explanation of these concepts, including how, why and when to use them, that I seen on line.
As a new player to SC (about 3days old lol) These vids are GOLD! Thanks for taking the time to help out us newbies! Keep up the great work mate. :)
Great work! Love how you describe the principles with plain and easy to understand language. Very well done. A new subscriber here! :)
A good explanation on how to better utilize both types of PIPs along with the ESP settings.

Hugely helpful! I've been playing for 3 months and I'm just getting into combat. Thanks so much!
I've always used LAG pip but after this video, you've given me a new appreciation for the LEAD pip and benefits!!! Keep these great videos coming Moist Noodle...!
Just started a couple weeks ago. Love videos like this. I need all the instruction I can get. Keep these vids coming!

New player in 2023, very helpful video in upping my combat game! Good luck training with SaltE!
Great video! Will def test out some ESP settings and be more dynamic with my PIP usage. Keep up the good work mate :D
Just started fumbling my way through this game, and guides like this are making it a little less painful :D Thanks dude, awesome video!
Glad I could help!
Never really understood esp before this. I understand it better now, thanks
I switched to lag about a week after I started playing the game and find it far easier to use, but I know it's all preference. I've been playing for about a month now and love the game. I'm looking forward to more videos, brotha.
Fairly new to dogfighting and this is super helpful - I hadn't really understood how to read the PIP before. Definitely waiting to see the manoeuvres video also!
I'm excited to get the basic flight maneuvers video out. It's coming next, make sure you're subbed!
I saw this video being polished on your stream. Great points for a beginner like myself
Thanks for the Widescreen format, I do appreciate it, and thanks again for another guide as I was missing shots like crazy the other day.
Thanks! Your videos have really been helping me to learn how to fly. Looking forward to the basic flight manuevers video.
I didn’t know how the pip’s worked before this, thanks for the explanation.
Coming back to SC after a year off is made easier thanks to your videos, thanks !
Very informative video, as someone who doesn't do alot of pvp this was very eye opening thank you for the good video Moist Noodle.
Love the cutter
I appreciate the definitions between lag and lead. Now, to go check out the vid on merging. Keep up the great work!
I'm currently working on the Basic Flight Maneuvers video. It'll be out soon!
I’m brand new to Star Citizen and found your video very informative. I’ll be moving into combat gameplay very soon and hope your video helps me out.
Your video quality and attention to help the new players got me to hit the like and subscribe buttons. Looking forward to future videos and I’ll be going back through your channel uploads to see what I miss. Thanks so much!

Really glad I stumbled across your channel. All good stuff!
Regular follower on Twitch, but I really like these UA-cam guides. This was nice as I have some VKB's on order.
Another great video Noodle! It was quite informative and well spoken. I am looking forward to your next great video!
Very educational video. I learned a lot of new things for myself, in particular, I didn’t know that you can switch PIP on the fly. Thank you very much!
Glad it was helpful!
Liked the explanation of using the Lead PIP for movement tracking of the target, not just where to aim
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching :D
Im always on the hunt for good tips to help dial settings. Big help, thank you. Looking forward to more!
Great vid... Will definitely be binding a pip change key..
Ah thank you so much, i've been looking through beginner bounty videos for days and this is the first one that has us excited/brave enough to get in there. It finally makes sense, liked and subscribed 🙌
The only way to get better at it is to just jump in. Die more to die less! Next video is about Basic Flight Maneuvers. Hopefully that one will help too!
merging using the pip was new to me thanks for the info!
Please more of that i've learned a lot with this video - totally need to try this out in AC
I’ve heard of you for ages, had no idea you had a youtube channel. Liked and subbed.
I'm most often just a casual PVE-player, but trying to improve for the PVP theatre, great video for that! Thx :)
I have never really got into the combat aspect of SC but now i think i want to try and learn.
Really good information here. I'm going to be tweaking my ESP settings, as I have seen the PIP bouncing away from my target quite a bit. Hopefully that will help! Thanks for the work you put into your videos, really great job.
No worries, thanks for watching!
Between this series and the JW drills this should set me up to become adequate. Realistic goals.
Short and concise tutorial, really enjoyed it. I've been playing SC for years, but haven't really been interested in PVP until recently. Thanks for putting in the effort to make these o7
Thank you so much for these videos. The detailed explanations on how and why have been what I have been needing since starting in SC!
This was quite beneficial. It also showed me why I was missing too many shots in combat 😅
Thanks for the tips, Noodle. Very easy to understand.
Seems you always have a nice explanation of what and why instead of just saying whats best, definitely a help for a struggling pilot like me.
I think it's always important for people to understand WHY they need to do something, rather than just telling them what to do. That way they can work other things out for themselves.
Very informative, I’ve just started using hotas and will look into this when I get home
Thanks for the informative video regarding the lead and lag pips!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience, looking forward to trying out some of these techniques. Looking forward to more.
Finally I think I understand ESP now. I think my setting was default and I have never touched it, probably one of reasons I couldn't hit water if I fell out of a boat.
Also, I was today years old when I learned what pip stood for, and I never thought about it as not just for gun aiming.
Glad you found the video helpful!
Very useful, for me especially the ESP tuning part! Thank you!
Another smooth and educational video, thanks!
Great pacing and attention to basics that make more advanced concepts a breeze to understand. Well done.
Superb detailed, yet simple, breakdown - thanks!
Great video. Just grabbed a pair of VKBs so going to use your tips while learning how to use the sticks.
Newcomer to the game, inexperienced at ship combat, but I'm absorbing guidance best I can. Thanks for the suggestions!
Great job mate. I like your using videos with lines where can imagine better whats going on. Thx
There are so many settings in SC that it most never even touch them. I didn’t know what ESP was so never played with it. Now I have to figure out how much I like.
Cool video!! Gonna try messing with these options. I changed some of mine based on your last video and worked great!
