DOGFIGHTING TIPS - SWITCHING & LOSING TAILS - Battlefield 4 Jet Tutorial/Tips 

You got three types of pilots. The amateurs, the skilled pilots, and the ones who just fly around in a circle around their spawn hoping you'd get taken out by the AA.

Hey just started flying jets yesterday on bf4 and today there was a guy on my tail so I started flying in a loop and switching and it saved me. Thanks.

Here i am 6 years later, still trying to be good at the game 💀 Good video btw, thank you for this useful information!

I did not know that ecm took you of the air radar, thanks ghost for the usefully tips. Keep up the good work!

Finally finished! It would be awesome to hit 100 likes with this one guys, put quite a lot of work into this

one tip is when they're on you you should turn with the flaps so that way they have to aim at a very slim part of the jet

Great tips Ghost! I've never been a good pilot in BF3 nor in the beginning of BF4, but your tutorials got me into the jets and now I'm loving every moment of them (and progressively getting better as well :-)).

This series has Without a doubt the best jet info I have found . It has really opened up bf4 beyond ground pounding for me

Really like these tips makes it a whole lot easier to fly / use the jets effectively

Wow great tips! I had a lot of trouble shaking off pilots before, this should help greatly!

I just wanted to applaud your work, and your channel. You're rocking a clean 4k resolution, along with very good information for improving your game. Your editing skills are very well rounded, and they're way effective for your channel. For your title effects, maybe try toning down the contrast a bit and sort of cleaning up the words for a "simplistic esque" kinda look. Sort of metaphorically tightens up your image, and echoes professionalism. But yeah, great work. This depth of game mechanics will be the future of RU-vid gaming channels. Right now it's being overrun with fluffy videos (e.g. "weapon reviews") so naturally it's time for a subtle evolution of a corner of the interwebs.

Awesome tips thanks

Finally Ghost, I don't have to be bait anymore I can help you and btw awesome intro ;)

great video as usual

great vid keep up the good work

Thanks lad greatly appreciated

I wouldn’t say that the ecm blinds the guy on ur tail. Cause most of the time once I’m behind an enemy pilot and he pops ecm it doesn’t do much of a difference cause I can still clearly see him unless I’m in first person which I only use to check mi speed control and to aim cause I have camera chase off (Best decision I made) (PS4 by the way) and thanks for turning this rookie into an ace pilot 🤟

I'm following all your Steps and it Worked! For some reason, I always lack my Controller Joysticks because When Ever I get to somebody tell on Console, I always move and my Heart beat, Which Mean that I'm really Nervous on getting to a Enemy Tail!!!!

You have a fantastic Chanel keep up the good work

Thank you. Started playing this again on PS5 and just couldn’t shake them off my tail on the Dawnbreaker map. The big skyscrapers certainly don’t help. Will give this strategy a try 👍🏼

Omg! Big step up bro, thanks alot

Great video I favourite them all

How to do that move? As if the jet to move sideways. sorry for my english

It's impossible to even spawn in a jet now.

Already knew all this but good video all the same, glad your not one of those "stay on his tail and keep using the heat seekers till hes dead."

Thank you

I’m good at getting in tail with enemy jets But I’m not good at losing tails

I get at least 40 kills a game in jets. Thanks to your videos ghost. Thank you

I'm still learning about mastering speed control and losing tail. can u give some advice when someone tailing on us, are we tapping the decelerate button to mantain the 300-315 or we just hold and release it? because they re always quickly behind me again after im looping them. i watched all your vids. thumbs and thanks!

Love your videos. Aiming for division 1 in my country. :)

Dem cinamatics doe :O

A lot of this doesn’t apply in hardcore. I can look out of the top of my canopy while looping at perfect speed and no amount of switching will save you. Doesn’t do much for me forgetting about the ground, or the AA though 😂

nice series :-)

Great video ghost but i tend to stay away from the jets xd i only like the attack jet and than take out ground units but when a other jet comes i instanly bail out. I just hate dogfighting in BF4 in BF3 is was pretty beast but the mini map here fucks me up

that was cool

Very useful tips, unfortunately I mostly play hardcore so no radar/third person 🤣 Still useful every now and then. Hopefully Battlefield 6 has similar dog-fighting!

Hey dude, nice video! i have a question, where can i find servers with air superiority mode? i cant find them ;( thx and sorry for my english

Can you do a video about engaging an enemy lose tails and keep behind an player. But the first engagement seems hard. Most of the time I end up behind and have to sweat my self of focusing on speed to lose him

You're probably one of the most underestimated youtubers on the net, shit you deserve far more subcribers... keep up the awesome job Ghost, cheers from Italy :)

thanks for the tips I'm a console player on Xbox and I'm a very confident Infantry Soldier looking to learn how to fly when I'm on the ground I usually drop 4.0 k/d ratio with over 30 kills but when I fly It's like a foreign language to me I'm going to go practice

thanks

Is it possible to bleed a speed of a fighter jet

Right after finally being able to watch (I had to eat whilst I was in the middle of it), I must say I already figured out most of these maneuvers (

Thank you so much. There was this idiot in the server i play in he keeps killing me and killing me. This helps a lot

Im just tryna get those 3 ecm jammers for the ucav 😭

how did you get your minimap so big at 4:33. or is it from video editing?

I'm asking this a little late but are there any more advanced maneuvers? I befriended an ace pilot and switches don't work well on him. We both have good turn speed, he just does some double secret move to bet behind me and he follow all of my switches even when I'm out of sight. Thanks in advance

#RoadTo10k Goast Gaming!!!!!

I think this really helped because I would spend 8 minutes trying to get a guy off my tail and the second I shoot him as he comes towards me he won't move and a jet ram happens but nice advice on that also do you think missiles are really any good because I use them to stop the engine of the target then I shoot them

Hey when I hit 315 there was a video that said that your plane goes ahead of your jet but it's not working for me is there a setting for it?

First of all. Great tutorial ;D Which graphics cardS do you have to constantly play at 120fps while recording :O (Sry if you´ve still answerde the question)

Im using a hori tac 4 which is difficult in dogfights

from 2021 to 2014 just to say your videois helping me to learn it in BF4 . tnx .. p.s. : we have Covid-19 here. buy a mask (you will need it in 2021) 🙌

Ghost, you sent me here from your Mobile AA video. Would you say that drafting is every a good strategy? Drafting being slowing down so that the jet tailing you that is presumably going much much faster than you passes you and allows you to tail the enemy jet. Don't know if you covered this in your speed control video as I have not gotten to it yet.

Cool thing, you managed to guess the style of 2042

ESM still lock in my, is okay only used flare?

Next lesson, tactics for beating lock on missiles? In BF3, apparently you could outturn heatseekers. Now in BF4, missiles turn at one million Gs to hit you. In a head to head engagement, I've watched the MAA double tap Active Radars, I popped my ECM and wave off before the lock tone and still they lock and hit, #DICEPLS Currently I'm a stealth jet and a transport chopper pilot when I'm in a flying mood. But there's a very bad glitch that consistently gives no audio hit notification on the stealth jets by guns.

Number 1 tips is using US jets. CN and RU jets sucks at maneuver and had big surface area

hey ghost! i am new (and late), and im really interested in flying jets. But my enemy makes me feel like they have some kind of hacks or something, because i feel like throwing them off with ecm doesnt work and the dude still knows where i am, why is this?? im really frustrated

I played many air superiority and did many dog fights but I must admit no1 ever fooled me with switch with ECM. Trail always gave their position away. They end up getting killed by me while their ECM is active.

I still lose my dogfights to pilots because I don't know how to engage them. And I also don't know moves to get them off my tail. I pop my ecm and do switches but it doesn't work. Could you please make a video on this to help me and other amateur pilots. Thanks.

I genuinely hate seeing vehicle mains, ruins the flow as infantry and unstoppable as aircraft especially if they’re in a duo

How do I switch what button do I press

yey.

Protip: If you got someone on your tail and you feel they're lining up for a killshot...try banking in any direction. When your tail goes to follow you...brake to 313, pitch down and roll in any direction using opposite rudders as hard as you can. Your jet will almost instantly flip 180 degrees. Impossible to follow effectively for any pilot granted that they went for the first move. One of the slickest moves in the game. Disclaimer: Like with any move, don't overuse this. It's good but only if your tail goes for your initial turn. If you are on the offensive against this, sit back for a bit and watch for the double move. Cut the second move.

You dont want to pull a switch at the top of your loop its easy to pick up

Ghost whats the best gun for the stealth jet and why ?

What do you do when you have no unlocks, and keep getting hounded by skilled players? When I'm airborne, they're right on me before I can try anything. It's worse when they team against me, even if I'm tailing one.

In a lot of the clips you were dogfighting J-20’s which from my experience preform worse than the F35’s, would like to see more fair fights

When scissor video technik ?

Ghost Do you use gamepad or mouse and keyboard to pilot??? Thanks

I'm assuming that the F-35 is good because it can fight like an attack helicopter.

i subbed :)

Honestly I didnt knew that poppin ECM makes u vanish off the enemy radar

Hi ghost, I tried your tips and I would know if is it good to always see the radar?

Ghost Gaming - Improve Your Game How are you able to accurately shoot so in 3rd person? Also ur using the arrow keys to manoeuvre right? or are you one those joysdicks.

Please what is the switch

I feel like no matter if I pull down or up on my analog stick my turning speed stays the same, I can't tell if I'm turning sharper or not

no shite m8! dat infinte switching loop looks like using 9000DPI sens...

In ps4 i cant write in the game sadly thing

No matter hard I try, I can't out turn a stealth jet when I am in a attack jet. I even use your technique when flying at 310-315 and this video for dogfighting. Can you give me an insite on how to beat these damn stealth jets?

I got 2 kills with the f35

turn vehicle fov up as high as you can, you dont need the same kind of aim like infantry

Enemy jets usually don't take me out...enemy AA usually do...

Still pro in 2020.

6:18 note to self j20 pilot never attempted a switch. Use the switch me.

getting ready for bf2042 with this 😈

I am having heaps of trouble, I come across these fighter pilots and they are ALWAYS behind me. I try and loop vertically, but the manage to stay on that loop and take me out. I try to loop horizontally, but they just shred me. I don't have ECMs so it makes it harder, and I am always being outurned, despite me trying what you say here. I am just wondering how they always take me out, I stay around 300-330 speed when turning but do I need to tap de throttle while going up and down? This just really angers me because no matter how hard I try they are always behind me.

Why would you be least visible at the top and bottom? It's not like the camera flips a la BF3.

This helps, but I play HC so... I don't think I get to have a radar and/or 3rd person view : / Any tips for HC play? Thanks!

This doesn’t work I’ve tried this “switch” technique and it does nothing but get me killed, i play on console.

This is still relevant in 2020

anyone knows how to do that shaking tail on PS4? i just dont know how. ty!

i wish you were in 1st person so i can see your speed meter

When I look for a new target I normally use the radar but when I spot them on radar, I don't see the diamond shape on them when someone spots them. Is there a way to find out if the target is high above or down below?

Huh. I do some of these things without knowing

You are well using J/P - J/S ! no way using mouse.

I think the main problem I have is I can't keep track of where I am in relation to the horizon.

Ghost gaming ... try DCS world even better try 104 server grab a fighter see if your techniques really work :P

I love how hard jet fighting is but i hate how weak jets are they are not the killing machines they where in bf3 and are so easily taken out by an aa
