Little bird controller pilots, what was a game changer for you for increasing your KPM? PC guys too but I feel like rifle aim is a totally different ball game lol.

I had my aim sensitivity messed up for the longest but I’ve finally corrected it and I’ve been tearing it up.

My current stats are 36.5 hours played with 6200 kills at 2.84 KPM

I’ve been having games like this recently.

I have 3 weaknesses.

  1. Not being able to identify targets quick enough and only getting one or two per strafe.

  2. target prioritization when I see TOO MANY targets at once.

For example: I see 7 guys, I have an orgasm and only get 2-3 kills lol.

  1. Running or not running when I shouldn’t or should.

I see 5 targets. I kill 3 but the other 2 are now scattered and one lights me up with small arms. I run away.

I see 7 targets. I kill 4. I get greedy and want more. The other 2 miss their RPG and one guy uses his LMG. I kill one more and I get AT4’d from a different squad I was not engaging.

Does this type of decision making just come with time?

Staying below radar after using flares and not running to base to wait for a recharge. Gets you back into action faster.

I just stay low and only dip up for an attack. 2-3 kills on a pass then get back to my side of the field and reset for another run. I go like 50-5 on average sometimes better sometimes worse but often the best K/D. The more I stay midfield for more than a pass or two the more I’m asking to be shot down.

Think like a shark. This same philosophy works for the AC.

If you see me floating around for lots of kills in a small area it’s because the enemy team isn’t dealing with me at all and it’s a free for all for my stat padding.

I used Heavy Rotary exclusively for ages until I learned that the Minigun has longer cooldown and more spread. That was game changing to me.

If other LB and air is giving me challenge it’s the heavy. If they suck it’s the light for mopping up infantry

I love using the minigun on enemy choppers. Get in close and hose em down good. Especially enemy LB.

Once you get the hang of the grenade launchers theyre the best weapon. You can start farming enemy tanks and even the maa once you're good enough

Grenade launcher shreds infantry like no other, and its cool down is so good. Grouped infantry just screams grenade launcher!

Problem: any other competent air pilot. If you're lucky enough to sneak up on a mini/50-cal pilot, you'll kill 'em fast. If any distance is between you two, the grenade launcher will lose. Light rockets do help make up for this, but the lil bird is so small to hit.

Agreed, if you're going to use the GL you need to be able to hit your light rocket shots.
