  • this fuckin aircraft is just ridicilous !! FUCKIN SHIT i mean !!! firing guntling gun with this is wierd ! i cant hit fuckin shit with it ! crosshair is wierd too low! all the fuckin cockpit cover the 50% of the screen mother fuckin shit im really uppset with this shit !

  • on ps3 i have over 1000 jet kills but on xbox i cant get a single kill :/

  • When you use the cannon in a jet,how do I aim? Should I use the cross in the center or the circle that has a dot in it?

  • in which maps can be used f35?

  • If you hold down the brakes long enough it will gain altitude like whenever you take off vertically...personally i like the f-35, just dont hover n front of anti air tanks or anything of that sort and have fun......

  • The F-35 as awesome as it is, still isn't as manuverable. I mean if they did that i think they should have at least gave it stealth and not show up on radar like in real life. But i found a solution to winning a dogfight everytime i use ECM jam and it works

  • Thing is the U.S. didnt make this jet for dog fights... thats why it makes no sense that people bash its ability to dog fight. these jets are all purpose good at everything jets but best at nothing while the U.S. has f22 raptors for air to air combat.

  • You need to use the F35 like old WWII American Navy planes. You never out turn an enemy however you can climb faster then enemy jets. Try flying into the sun flip the plan upside down and dive in on unsuspecting enemy (KEEP IN MIND YOU PARTNER JET NEEDS TO STICK TO THE STRATEGY OF CLIMBING AND DIVING OTHER WISE YOU WILL BOTH BE DOMINATED BY THE SU-35)

  • in this game the f35 is BRILL. in reality though it failed so badly... compared to russian 5th gen jets it has less power, slower acceleration, slower top speed, slower rate of climb, lower service ceiling, less firepower, a wider turning circle and less stealth capabilities. the only advantage it has is a slower stall speed.. it's dissapointing cause it looks awesome =/

  • when i play this map with the f-35 i fly to their runway and VTOL until a flanker spawns and go and take it leaving them with the terrible f-35

  • @LevelCapGaming To gain altitude when hovering hit the afterburners when your in hover mode (usually shift.) Hope that helps man

  • it wont go up, if you want to over from the ground just press the break button

  • you sayd on bf2 chinese mig but it was the j-10 the mec had the mig-29

  • i had ones fully air domination on oman in the f35 but the pilots sucked they didnt even droped flares

  • how come when you fly the jet dont shake around like crazy

  • since the f35 is designed to have stealth, then to balance the f35, they should have the f35 already have stealth it would make the jets more balanced

  • To go up just hit down with the thortell

  • hey lvlcap, why not try somehthing with this f35, take the guided missle? (the one that locks onto vehicles) go really high, as high as possible at the edge of the flying zone, and select the missle, and just pick out vehicles. if you enjoy this, can you post a video on it?

  • I cant get the damn thing to hover properly it just starts falling or it just keeps moving to far lol.

  • best tactic i use for the F-35B is basically hit and run, i just unlocked guided missiles and i found out on wake island that is easy to linger on the edge of the map and come on hover mode in for attack runs on tanks and jeeps, if you are getting locked onto use your flares and immediately light the afterburners to get back to the edge of the map.(however i only did this in a few games without very experienced enemy jet pilots and you may find yourself in a dogfight) lol use up all characters.

  • hold the brakes to do up

  • Comment removed

  • Personally I think this thing is OP as fuck because I've been in games where someone gets in the F35 and hovers above our deployment and keep wrecking our jets as soon as they spawn. Just my opinion.

  • is this just an american harrier with better tech?

  • @TheCommenter1337 If this is a Harrier with better tech, I never want to even see the Harrier.

  • which reticule do you aim with? the big circle with the dot, the little circle with the lines sticking out, or the crosshairs with the dot?

  • @hup2thepenguin you aim with the crosshairs

  • Everytime I try to hover, my plane opens the flaps, but it just falls to the ground.

  • The F/A-22 is cooler looking and has better stealth capability

  • @maximum988 yes but the project was canceled

  • @matt241198 I know, it sucks.

  • hold down after burners it doesnt show 4 ps3

  • @matt241198 will it go up then?

  • What button is it to take up from a stationary position for the PS3?

  • @dellywarrior I play on 360, but the way it's set up on xbox is the air-break button, so I imagine, which ever button that is, probably one of the left triggers.

  • @WittyUsername816 Ok, and if you hold that while flying, you will start to hover?

  • @dellywarrior It should.

  • @WittyUsername816 Thanks.

  • With the hud, its all there for a reason- the circle is the direct aim where the main gun fires then the reticule is the drift of the bullets

  • if u want to hover and dont descend then dont try to correct at all and when it is getting low it will start leveling up then rise, just pitch ur nose around from then on

  • Great vid

  • Whats the attachment called with those rockets

  • @Gtahullu70 rocket pods

  • Call me a noob but it took me until watching this video to realise which crosshair in jet hud was the reticule >.<

  • LvlCap, do you use a joystick? If not, how do you play like that with a mouse, I just sway around like crazy!

  • @MssAnimeRockz Use keyboard.. I have no idea why people insist on using the mouse for flying. WASD+ arrow keys= as hard as you can turn.(if you know how to braketurn ofc) A mouse needs high DPI to fly properly but even then you have to lift the mouse at some point when doing continious loops/turns and lifting your mouse=shitter turns. Same goes with the chopper, just cause you have 45 degree movement angles doesn't make it clunky.

  • My friend is beast in that thing...

  • isnt the gun after the famas the L85A2 or something?

  • @tyrell6357 I thinkso it's the "professional russian" assignment

  • man. thanks for this

  • hold the break and wen wheels come out put the noise up and u would start going up

  • To correct a little bit on the story of the F-35 lightning II, the DoD offered 300 billion dollars to the chosen creator of the last-to-be manufactured manned joint strike fighter. They required the JSF to fulfill requirements of being stealthy, have vertical take off, and be cheaper than the F-22 Raptor. The competition was between Boeing and Lockheed Martin. Lockheed Martin of Fort Worth, TX ended up winning, they now manufacture these awesome and efficiently priced machines.

  • and its F-18 Superhornet ;).

  • Pretty sure the VTOL was only designed for takeoff/landing for the Navy. Not for combat or anything.

  • @no3ggs4u It was in fact designed for the marines to replace the harrier. Watch the documentary by NOVA titled "Battle of the X-planes" they'll tell you.

  • @MrTommyIgaz Oh right, I'm getting confused with the Royal Navy and their aging Harrier fleet in need of replacement. :P

  • @no3ggs4u Yeah the harrier is slow plus the system intakes its own exhaust so it kept malfunctioning. Lockheed Martin's system built this symphony of moving parts for that giant turbine fan on top so that system can sustain flight with incredible stability and intakes cold air instead of carbon monoxide. The VTOL is for marines, short distance take off for navy, and stealth capability for air force. Also it complies with international contract specs (e.g. Israel, UK, Turkey, thieving China)

  • I just saw an ad for another YouTube channel, you can do that?

  • i have to say, the F-35 is really slow and fat, i dont think the VTOL makes up for it at all since rising with VTOL engaged is so damn slow. other than that, very cool jet and fun to fly.

  • i love this jet im really good in it because i have the guided missiles so i quickly go into hover mode lock on fire then accelerate turn around and finish them off with the minigun. For those of you who do not know the guided missiles are pretty much it's just a really powerful rocket which locks on to tanks

  • @theshadowkid2000 f35 machine gun is as good as rush jets or conquest jets ?

  • @BJGunners

    i think its the same however im not 100 percent sure

  • @theshadowkid2000 but it takes alot of time to reload i usually use the heatseeker against jets ,but do u recommend it?

  • @MrFirasfarah

    true it takes its time reloading however i still reccomend it it seems with me my heat seekers are flared every time so i just use the minigun on air vehicles plus the guided missile is really overpowered on tanks

  • HEY GUYS! not a thumbs up whore but ill try it ;) so do you guys want dice to make a special gamemode for jets only? like youll have 2 carriers and a big area and there will be enough jets for each team and the jets will be different kinds?like the frogfoot f 35 and more?

  • @pwnerzatzhaloz3 Air superiority. nuff said.

  • @pwnerzatzhaloz3 BF1942 had a map exactly like that! I'm not sure if you already know about it,but for those who don't it's called Coral Reef. It's like team deathmatch but with Jets! In the case of 1942, propeller airplanes :) That would be fantastic for BF3!

  • @ThreadToForget It was 1943 not 42. (BTW that game was amazing)

  • @ThatSpiffingChap Actually Coral Reef came from 1942 :P Except they did have air zones with flags but it was basically TDM. x)

  • @pwnerzatzhaloz3 thats like air superiority in BF1943

  • @pwnerzatzhaloz3 fuck yes that would be sooo awsome :)

  • @pwnerzatzhaloz3 bf3 version of bf1943 invasion of the coral sea

  • @pwnerzatzhaloz3 u mean like air superiority for battlefield 1943?

  • @pwnerzatzhaloz3 that'll be awesome ...imagine :D

  • @pwnerzatzhaloz3 They had it in BF 1943. It was called Air Superiority. I hope they add it in BF3 too.

  • @pwnerzatzhaloz3 well on battlefield 1943 there is air Superiority or something

  • Best commentary i've ever seen. Cool voice and very informative, You defo getting a sub from me mate :)

  • If BF3 is going to change anything, they should allow a spawn to have many anti-air weapons.

    AA missles with a gun & 2 guns w/easy lay out of SoFlams, etc. These games are SO ANNOYING to play now with the Jet whores that earn NO points but compensate for their unmanly lackings with back & forth bombing runs of the runway. What's more cheesy than that? Nothing. Let the plane take to the air and maybe you'd earn a kill. So dumb. also, u should be allowed to kill your own jet campers.

  • @myeekeepee I agree, they ought to introduce more mobile AAs, there is a massive inconsistency between ground units and air units. Given this game is an arcade format of conventional combined arms warfare its a joke they have left out Mobile AAs on so many maps. Its just not practical to have lots of ground units with no Mobile AAs guns covering em.

  • Boy, you got lucky. These are the WORST pilots I have ever seen flying on a competitors team.

  • My dads got one

  • F35 - F22 Raptor BUT. The f35 is cheaper. Not every f35 is VTOL just the marines' planes. I like using stealth, flares, and ground missiles for taking out enemy mortars, macs, and jeeps/light armor.

    Ps- to increase altitude, tilt forward VERY slightly and use afterburner.

    Great video! Good Hunting and good luck!

    ^___^

  • how do u no ur speed

  • The F-35 Lightning II is a replacement for the F-16. I think of it more as the F-22's little brother

  • I play a lot jets and to me there is problems that should be fixed :

    - an entire rocket pod should destroy a tank

    - they should separate hover mode from normal mode (so we could break and manoeuvre correctly

    - Maybe nerf AA-10 etc guns (went easily 41-2 in caspian border, my teamates didn't have more than 5 kills ...)

  • @antonio66634 An entire rocket pod DOES destroy a tank. You just have to aim directly at them. And yeah your second point is totally valid :D And I only play on ps3 so I don't have the AA gun on many maps :( I need a pc :P

  • it looks cool but its garbage to be honest

  • Do you use a joystick??

  • @jamesonknott No he don't

  • Best loadout in my opinion is Air Radar, Guided Missile, and IR flares instead of the extinguisher...what balances the lack in maneuverability is the fact that the F-35's guns do easily twice the damage the Flanker and Hornet can dish out which is where Guided Missile also comes into play. The recon camera from that can be used to spot infantry as well as locking ground vehicles. One hit from the guided missile normally disables your target and if hovering switching to guns can finish off an IFV

  • Second thing to notice is if you're tailing an air target closely while in a turn your guns actually hit closer to the bottom left of the crosshair floating around instead of hitting dead on where it's zero'd in at. Put all the above together with Air Radar and you can take full advantage of the Lightning's features without putting yourself at a blind disadvantage.

  • okay so the big circle is where the jet is looking at that point in a turn or straight flying, the smaller circle/reticle thingy is where your shots will actually go, its atuomatically giving you however much lead you need to hit another flying target in a dogfight.

  • Whenever I go into hover mode I hold the left trigger but the jet slowly falls down like it is trying to land. Can anyone tell me how to prevent this? (I play on Xbox)

  • Turn your brightness down, might get a better looks and also it's probably your computer's color settings. The circle on you minigun targeting shows which direction your bullets with go into.

  • this is how to turn faster : instead of pitching upwards when rolling 90 degrees to left/right , pitch in opposite direction of the one you want to go and just pitch downwards , it will slow down other jets but F35's turn radius decreases by a lot :)

  • I think the piper ( the gunsight) moves because IRL it works with the radar to calculate the bullet path to the enemy aircraft. i guess that's what DICE is trying to re create

    don't take my word because i'm not to sure

  • If you want to hover (up-down, left-right), you need to fly close enough to the ground ( or on-top of buildings), and start hover --> then your landing-gear will come out, and then you can do whatever the hell you want with it :)

    So basically: Fly low --> start to hover-->your landing gear will come out -- > now you can hover up/down without worrying. I get an average of 20 kills with F-35 because of this !

  • Do you have a tutorial on the other jets?

  • what side do u need to be on to use a jet that can hover on gulf of omam

    

  • I wish we could customize by each vehicle :(

  • F-35 should be only a little less maneuverable than the other fighters, and instead of braking to enter hover mode, it should be the 'V' or 'X' key.

  • not realistic not even the afterburners look realistic

  • really laggy videos :o

  • @ljudmila20 What?

  • How much jet score you need to unlock those heli rockets for jet?

  • harriers are better

  • @nadenessnick Harriers are slower plus their VTOL kept malfunctioning because Boeing's VTOL system intakes its own exhaust whereas Lockheed Martin's F-35 uses that innovative turbo fan to stabilize vertical flight, increase maneuverability, and intake cold air instead of carbon monoxide. The F35 was designed to replace the F-18 for shorter take off, the F-22 for cheaper manufacturing, and all other manufactured jets. Fun fact :)

  • how can you fly vertically up with this????Because i can't :(

  • @xxxbpityu

    on xbox 360 just hold LT at start. nothing else.

  • @LuckySeven91 thank u :)

  • The F35 strengths are how big its lock on reticle is. its so damn easy. put on beam scanning and heatseeks and you're good from a long range away.

  • also it looks like its from transformers, because the F35 was in transformers, the decepticon Starscream was an F35

  • @braydenmaine F-35 was never in Transformers..Lol Starscream was a F-22.

  • @Grimmejaw00 oh yea thats right, i thought i remember seeing one in transformers 2 or 3 maybe it was just the human jet

  • the crosshair is where you are shooting, the circle is the movement compensation, and where the bullets will eventually land if not obstructed by target

  • @braydenmaine then whats the vertical line?

  • you make it look so easy, but it's not ;(

  • Lol you said 150 million each :) sorry but its 350 million each.

  • can you fly jets on console? can you make a commentary or something

  • @kevoolee yes you can. its the same as PC from what i know. just don´t forget not all maps have jets.

  • With the brake tapping technique that you told me about, it turns better than any other jet! All you have to do though is to keep watching the speedometer.

  • Whats cool about Wake island is tht you can land and drive around with vehicles in the shallow area within the U. Here's a tip using that, get a tank, drive it into the middle of the shallow area, switch to machine gunner, just make sure to have to main gun below the water, and, there you go! A makeshift AA gun!

  • @MrTitan0707 - The 50cal. on the tank is a horrible AA gun, that's why the actual AA guns have twin cannons.

  • Great video, nice commentary and piloting

  • i wonder if Dice making the F35 suck is on purpose... Sweden(Dice) makes the Jas Gripen Fighter plane, which F35(US) is the strongest competitor to, silly thought, but it struck me when i see how sucky the f35 is, when it obviously is superior in real life o.O

  • @Alekpowah What sucks is that they would take a game that seriously and incorporate that... you're theory seems pretty plausible....

  • fuck i wish pc and console were equal :/

  • You wil start to get alitude when Ýóur weels are down so try to go low wen hovering the tey wel come out and yÔu wil gain altitude

  • This is kind the first jet gameplay/jet tutorial I like, cause youre a good pilot AND giving the right tips ^^ Id enjoy to have you as a wingman sir

    Unfortunately I didnt get the chance to fly a f-35 yet, but I fought against some various times, and it really seems that they arent as agile as the flanker is (what would be totally realistic), and Im currently changing my platform from xbox to pc, so lets see whether i can also use my skills with mouse and keyboard Oo worrying a little bit

  • Yea when i hit hover i woulld go down but after a while u start to go up and regain altitude

  • F35 is crap. no chance against Flanker.

  • To go up you have to get the nose pointing up that's how i do it

  • Great video.

    Im getting pretty good at flying the F35.....the only question i have is how do you hover upwards from a standstill like he does at the start of the video?

  • Has anyone ever told you that you sound exactly like the guy from this american life?

  • normally youget in fire at 50% but now at 38% so less effective extinguisher

  • To go up in hover mode you just hold the decelerate button and it accelerate the engine when in hover mode.

  • can you do more attack helicopter videos? i really want to see how my style of flying compares to someone who is also good with a jet. thanks!

  • Wat map tat 2:50

  • I definitely got dominated constantly flying the F35, it was awful.. so much so I dislike the entire plane, which upsets me because it was my favorite in BF2 due to the hovering and it just looks amazing. Any half way decent pilots shot me down if they saw me first and decided to get on my tail. A separate binding for Hovering like Raddpuppy said should fix this problem I'd think.

  • @BURLYMACHINE EXACTLY

  • These videos make me wish I played on pc sometimes. I can't manage to fly the jets very well on ps3 at all.

  • @BlueCopper80 on a keyboard its harder...

  • @iColorado303 It's harder because you have far more control over your flying though. A joystick is amazingly easy, but not as accurate, and the mouse/KB is actually pretty natural for some people. In the end, your time spent practicing a little longer on the PC gets you better control and more freedom.@BlueCopper80

  • To clear things up, you can only go up in hover mode if the landing gear is down. So if you want to hover, come in to your target low, and hover when you see the landing gear go down. Now you can go as high as you want in hover mode

  • @coolman154 how do you go up in hover mode?

  • @MrNaughtyHands hold the decelerate button (default L2 for PS3, LT for XBOX, and S for PC

  • in a jet you turn the fastest when traveling at 300 knots.  Witht he F35 one tap of the brake usually decelerates you down to 315 or 320, another tap will put you right at 300. Get used to that and theres no problem with turning in a dogfight

  • Personally I think the HUD is fine because it is basically all the screens in a jet. You have the angle of elevation which is the lines, the planes orientation (circle with line on top and sides, and when u equip the minigun the big circle is where the minigun can shoot.

  • @xxbchiltonxx It's not what is in the HUD but how those elements are presented in the F-35 with huge thick lines up close in your face completely obstructing your view on the battlefield. All the other jets in the game have the same HUD but aren't so aggravating as the F-35. Plus there is a glitch where the target indicator in all jets becomes off center the more you change views and weapons. That's what has to be fixed.

  • guys use guided missle you will love it you can shoot anything on the ground (only vehciles) and its very effective because the guided missle is under so you can slow down not always have to hover.

  • i really wonder how do you do that... flying on the middle of WAR and like no one is Firing at you, Locking so much, you can flying the whole round without dead... and no one can take you down and its even looking like no one trying to get you down. i Remember when i get to the aircraft on bf2, 1-2 minutes i could maybe fly without problems, then i got shoot by everything, jeeps, soldiers, tanks, anti-air.. fuckin everything is aiming for me! btw love your videos

  • they should have made hover mode a seperate button so that you could keep the manuverability.

  • Comment removed

  • @raddpuppy70 Yeah no kidding... so simple, not sure why they didn't bother. I'm thinking maybe because it would make the plane imbalanced? Because you could Hover, destroy and out maneuver other planes etc? To me the balance would be that you become a sitting duck in Hover mode and it's a long change time between hover and flying.

  • @raddpuppy70 No i think they should'nt,otherwise it would have a benefit over all off the other planes without an penalty for it,that would make it overpowered.

  • @raddpuppy70 would be too OP :D by losing the manuverability you gain the option to hover.

  • @raddpuppy70 They probably will with all the people complaining about it. Question is: which button should it be?

  • @raddpuppy70 lets hope Dice puts that in the next patch

  • @raddpuppy70

    that would make it overpowered.

  • I just found out that breaking actually works to maintain or gain altitude whilst in hover. Thumb up to spread the knowledge :)

  • @GeneralOstrich okay for the console or whatever platform your using how do you gain altitude in hovermode..?

  • @GeneralOstrich

    you need to keep the plance horizontaly STRAIGHT and then press the brake, and you will rise up. thats the whole trick

  • "Huvvering" "Huvver mode"

  • Use heat seekers with the F-35 it is great.

  • @sittes79 go troll somewhere else
