Ok, maybe it was answered already, if so - sorry.

Are there any FAQ on PS flying? Im a total newb in the air in PS.
Any specific settings? any tips on attacking ground targets(e.q. tanks, BFRs)?

rever hit bfr, fly away, repeat

Use a reaver. Fly toward infantry. Depress the fire button while rockets are selected, keeping the crosshairs roughly on target. Afterburn away as necessary. Rinse and repeat.

The reaver like so many things is easy to use and difficult to master.

Any person can move around is PS Flight,
its like the Quake III spectator cam except no
insta break and turning.

Tip: to effectively turn hold on brakes while holding down turning and the strafe buton in the turn direction, then afterburn once you reach the desired direction
very awsome

What about settings? I mean how to make handling less responsive?
my steering Sens is 1/4 of full atm

"Difficult" being a very relative term of course.

It must be difficult, I have never been shot down, one on one.

If it's difficult to master, then why do you have such a flawless record?

Baneblade · 2004-11-20, 06:07 AM

Dogfighting is difficult to master, rocket spamming I only do because the softies shoot at me first.

Mosquitos tend to shoot me down one on one if they are decent, but the only time a Reaver shoots me down is when I'm being tag teamed or I'm nearly dead and they came just in time to finish me.

I don't bail, and I'm glad the bailing is being changed, because it annoys me when I get cheated out of a kill.

Because most of the top pilots left, and 98% of Markov pilots are horrible.

I fly on Emerald too.

PS: I have shot down the 'top pilots'.

First thing I'd suggest

Press Escape K, then hit that Mouse Icon.

See three slider bars

Put the first one somewhere near the middle
Second/Third BARELY past 0

Turn on: Invert Flying Input, Mouse Freelook
Turn off: The rest

That'd probably help you out the most.
