  • ur good :D but i took down a plane with just 2 grenades and a pistol. :P

  • ur 1 hell of a pilot.....id hate togo aggainst u

  • but you cant destroy a dropship or apc with a hit

  • aWESOME vID!!

  • Very cute, very cute indeed. Now turn on proflight and let's see your easy kills, THEN I will listen to what you have to say. Normal flight is the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen. "Oh what, a lock on? Yeah let me push my left joystick up and do sick acrobatics and stunts to dodge your 8 swarmers" Bullshit.

  • love that hover..get picked off by a tank or a couple of rocker launcher hits.. bad idea.

  • can i get a pro flight??????

  • cool

  • hovering in the air= bad idea

  • wow what a hover noob i'd like you to try that on me you'll get owned so fast.

  • Whats the name of the song?????????

  • Nice vid!

  • Hey, Is this game 2 player, im only looking at this cause i came across it :P

  • It's a multiplayer online game.

    I think you can get 2 on one console, but it'll be splitscreen (which sucks unless you have like a 60" TV) :P

  • can i add u and u give me some pointers

  • @XchickenNwafflesX you can get 4

  • that idea i use that everytime but i go past them when i shoot

  • u do what i do, lock on to the target then boost at them then let it off

  • i do that too

  • haha its effective, but i hate it when they handbrake or something n u let it off real close n u die lol

  • im the anti air artillery profesional so i use FLAK canon so stealth doenst work

  • hey im a general names krathanium and in #30 in world of warhawk

  • damn ur good! gotta love this game

  • I do pro-flight, and dodging is a pain. The problem is that I've tried getting back to normal flight, but can't get used to it again. And I need a medal for getting MG kills with the Warhawk....

  • another tip... don't use it against people boosting at you, its too slow

  • You sir, are wrong.

    Most times you end up hitting the person in the face with it - exactly the reason to use it against ppl boosting at you.

  • not always because it takes a while to fully lock on and by then they probably can nail you with a few swarmers and the cannon

  • Homing Missile > A few swarmers and the cannon

  • not when you dont have enough time to lockon

  • Why do you hover to start a lock? Just follow them.

  • Hmm? I don't know what you're talking about. I'm not sure if you do either?

  • Instead of hitting hover to put your reticule over the target, just keep flying after them. It saves time, and keeps you free of locks. And it's easier.

  • I still don't understand exactly which part of the movie video you're referring to, so I'll reply in a general sense.

    You hover if you're target is stationary and you don't have enough time to get a lock before passing.

    And there's all sorts of situations where you can take advantage of hover in a dogfight. I'm not going to break it down for you.

    It's not always easier to follow the target. You are not lock-free because you are in motion. Period.

  • true that bro, I use hover alot during my battles, it's almost just as important to know when to hover as it is to know how to dodge...and I fly proflight though so my dodging is harder to do x_x but my agressiveness is much more extreme >=)

    emperor333, SmokeOut forever

  • u hovered 0:27

  • Yes I did.

    It was 2 on 1 dogfight - eventually I was going to get raped if I didn't go offensive.

    I knew that both pilots didn't manuever very well, so I used it to my advantage.

    After the first pilot passed me, I knew I had a few moments to hover and lock on to the other pilot before the first could lock on to me. Hover allowed me to do this without even having to juke the first pilot, because he jukes himself trying to track me.

    Then I do the same thing again.

    Make sense?

  • that makes sense. i was just clearing up that prior conversation. I hover too. it makes it easier to get the lock, and to lg people

  • Comment removed

  • @dragong23 taking lessons still? lol

  • hy don't tell the noobs now how r we going owned them now lol

  • Dude, because of your tips and tricks, my Warhawk skills are soooooooooooooooooooooooooo much better. Just in two days, i'm able to get all badges and ribbons (including air superiority) and kill like 42 people in one game, that considering i'm still a Wingman, kudos dude! BTW guys, there is nothing wrong with flying NF, because unlike PF, u wouldn't get that vertigo feeling when flying, which may sometimes confuse you and leave u behind enemy fire if your not that skillfull

  • Dude i fucking swear to god this intro is like the movie stealth!! Nice job!! 5/5

  • Dude your awsome in those warhawks im trying to get better for my clan we only hav like 3 good pilates and like 30 awsome troopers and we need the pilates to nock out the enemies trying to kill on the ground in warhawks. GREAT VIDEO THANKS :)

  • Dude what is this kick ass song? It remind sme of the movie stealth right from the start!!

  • Outkast - B.O.B.

  • I fly exactly like he does in the vid this vid is the reason y I have 5207 homming missle kills :)

  • you need a clan for warhawk?

  • no just perfered

  • damn u normal flighters its to easy

  • First of all. Hovering is noobish. Noob spinning is noobish. Lol. oh and the people you killed are brutal. they cant dodge any missles. And Proflight FTW.

  • Title of this video: Homing Missile Tutorial

    What it is: A video explaining how to use a homing missile.

    What it is not: A video explaining what mode to fly your warhawk in.

    Your are probably the 1000th retard not to grasp this. You don't even support your opinion with any sort of -valid- argument.

    Luckily I couldn't find your Warhawk stats to flambost you with. =)

    I salute you! =)

  • Well show them how to use it properly. We dont want noobs flying around hovering while i LG them.

    Oh and if u wanna see my stats.

    Its Tomahawked502

    Ya i never played in awhile though.

    Maybe about 2 weeks since i got R2.

  • The Warhawk is pretty fast, even when you're heavy on the breaks, so hitting any ground target that you can't lock-on to is next to impossible. Unless, that is, you switch to hover mode. It goes without saying that you should be careful of your surroundings when you engage hover mode. This mode wasn't arbitrarily put into the game. And you are not a 'noob' because you use hover mode.

    Though, I don't think we'll have to worry about you LG'ing anyone with your sweet stats. =D

  • Thats not what I ment... Like ya hover when you want to hit a ground target. Thats aight. But dont hover when you want to lock onto a warhawk.

    And whats with the comment on the end... I couldnt find ur stats either by the way.

  • It is possible to hit ground targets while still flying, takes alot of practice however.

    And Tomahawked is a beastly proflighter, definitely one of my favorite

  • don't worry about it chicken, it doesn't matter what you post about warhawk, someone's going to flame you for it. everyone has "very" strong opinions on which way to fly... I'm a pro flighter myself but only because i am better in pro than i am regular. anywho, not a bad vid man.. enjoyed it. look me up next time you're in. PSN: Deadmanwalking22

  • i dont get y pppl get on ppl for using reg flight they used it when they were noobs too. i use both

  • Great tips, thanks!

  • Of course you need to hover! =_=

    Thanks for this, i'm a pro-flighter w/ lightning gun. I'll try normal flight with Homing Missle now, thanks for the inspiration ^_^

  • doesn't look like your using pro flight is it better with it off?

  • it depends if ur in pro flight u can practically master the lightning gun and its slightly easier to chase down targets but its hard to dodge missles

  • dude u suck at homings u shoot them 2 far away from lol

  • eh?

  • thnx

  • my psn name is comneard5 send me invite to add as a friend please

  • Not bad with the homing missiles... but heres a hint never go in to hover mode in the middle of the map... u need to work on doging missiles... my doging is about %90 to %96 effective...

  • IMHO, you can hover any where you want, as long as you're confident that your team has control of the area, and/or you aren't in any real danger. =P

    I also don't believe I have any trouble dodging missiles. =D

  • well yeah if thats the case the hover whereever. just not in the middle of a dogfight

  • Dogfight as in dogfight, and not the game mode in Warhawk, right? =D

    Since the Warhawk can act as both a jet airplane and a hover aircraft, one of the best places to take advantage of it is in the middle of a dogfight.

    If you're doing the tango with an enemy Warhawk and you can't get a lock-on, either because he's spazzing or he's out maneuvering you, you can try switching to hover mode to take him out. Again, just have to be wary of any other enemy Warhawks, AAA, etc. in the area.

  • ya got in a rank serve>dogfight 10 vs 10 see how long u can hover 2vs3 at most if they have better pilots or more people its a bad idea

  • I guess we'll just agree to disagree. =)

  • i disagree with hovering to get a lock thats what average players do if ur really good u can get a lock while manuevering

  • You can't lock onto ground targets (save the ground placed turrets). So unless you just fly by them and pop them with a homing missile (which you probably can't), then engaging hover mode will be your best option.

  • i meant air targets and u can hit ground targets while flying if ur in proflight

  • You can't hit ground targets while flying by in Pro Flight (or Normal Flight). Why?

    1) Your camera angle sucks (Pro Flight especially).

    2) You're flying too fast.

    3) You'd have to fly at a rediculous angle to even hit a ground target.

    So, it's better to switch to Hover mode to take out a ground target.

    And against air targets, if you have a stationary air target, or flying against someone who's out maneuvering you, then you should try switching to hover mode.

  • exactly u have to be flying at a ridiculous angle thats what im talking about

  • lol look at the long argument great tips there mate

  • I thought its easier to dodge missles with pro flight... homing missles, I can't dodge them regardless...

  • thnx dude. im hopeless in the sky. hopefully this will help me.

  • Flying on normal flight? You would've been dead before the video started.

  • What an ignorant comment. =)

    This video is aimed at helping people to better use the Homing Missile. It has nothing to do with Normal or Pro-Flight, so please. =D

  • ha i do thumbs up I HATE normal flight noobs who go 500000000 feet flipping up its like dude think about it in really life your guy would be sick

  • Your PSN is Godzilla727 right? Hmm..

    I think you should have a kill/death ratio above 1.0 to be giving anyone tips on how to fly their Warhawk, let alone calling them noobs. LOL, you are teh l3373S7! If you're going to talk shit, at least have the stats to back it up. =P

    And anwyway, you can't compare Warhawk to "really life". To be honest, I had a hard time making any sense of your statement at all. =)

  • Oh, and your 10 points per minute is suspect. Either you're kicking some serious ass, or you're doing some serious flag tossing (have they not disabled that from the game yet?!).

  • hey can someone help me? ive been trying to get the 5 4x4 kills but i suck in the jeep or at anything excepth the warhawk. ill help you get any medal badge or ribbon you need(PSN TheSacrificial2)

  • LOL, sweet name. Not that I hate the 360.. it's just a sweet name. =)

    Anyway, I think it's easy to get the 4x4 badge (or medal?) on the Destroyed Capital map (the smaller version of it). Just take a jeep up to the Gazebo-type monument in the center of the map. From there, you can either just run enemies over, or jump in the back of the jeep and take 'em out with the jeep's 50 Cal.

  • I need help flying in warhawk to Level up could you help me please my PSN is Madrid_boy86 send me a message first I'm complete crap at flying I need to last 4 minutes while killing an enemy on foot n in jeep

  • how do i do all those flips amd barrel rolls on the ps3 ?thanks someone answer asap :)

  • man thank you so much for posting this i just got the game and got hooked even though i felt humiliated tryin to play , i got killed so many times its not even funny lol

  • well i don´t have this game but i have gta iv my psn id:pedrobrazuca

  • strat doesnt work against fellow ace pilots, if your boosting towards me, im gonna be boosting away, cause i know your about to use a homing missle. The techinque i use allot, is i go up to the ceiling, before i get stalled, fly right above another pilot, and dive bomb them with a homing missle, never fails

  • You can be King Dingaling Ace of all Warhawks, and you'll still get hit by a Homing Missile at close range. It's a good technique because the Homing Missile is already hard to shake, and trying to get away from it at close range is hard/impossible without chaffing. It's not a bad technique.

    I guess dive bombing other Warhawks isn't either. Though, you leave yourself open being all high in the air like that for all to see - nowhere to run for cover when under attack. But it works for you. =)

  • i own u man add me psn: bluewolfer we can play a few rounds together.

  • Hey sup~

    I added you, I think? Hope it went through.=P

    Also thanks for answering some of the other guys' questions here. Very much appreciated.=D

  • nice flying man u must be somewhere between a 1st LT and a gen

  • hes 2nd lutentant I think.

  • Very good, these are the same tactics I use, bar shooting unguided missiles at turrets. Much better, they have less chance of getting a lock on you.

    As for taking out flying targets, it's so good if you get the lock on, and are boosting towards them using machine gun, takes their health down just enough so that you release the homing missile when you're so close to them, they have no time to react at all and it's a straight kill.

  • I got the game about 2 weeks ago and it's total badass! Now I don't like to toot my own horn, but I'm getting pretty good. I definetely own a bit of my Warhawk flying skills to you. Most of the time I get a one-hti kill now because of your tacting, getting close to the warhawk. You're seriously good in this game, keep them videos coming.

  • i want htis game so frikken bad its not even funny!!!

  • sparker24, Warhawks a fun game =) from land to air to inbetween fighting is everywhere, and with airstrikes, to rocket launchers, to sword fighting, the game is great =) I got it for the mic tho, and then played the game and thought it was great! =D mah fav mode is hero. Hero + flamethrower in enemy command on destroyed capital = PWN.

  • SICK!

  • omg.you have to be one of the guys, who let me think, that im too dumb for this game

  • Nah man, this game really isn't as hard as you think. It may take a little time to get used to, but after that, it's really fun. =P

    If you don't have it already, you should get it. =P

  • This game is really one of the best games.

    It looks not very good, but you can't stop playing it!

  • how do u set up ur controls? like up/down inversion, pro flight, sixaxis and shit. i just got thsi game and the only thing i can do is hoover

  • press start/options/ controler options. and to start flying press triangle

  • what were you using during this video, the joy stick or motion sensor...which do you think is better

  • I use the joystick in the video. I also used the motion sensor for a while, and I didn't really like the controls. However, that's not to say that you won't like it.

    Give them both a try and see which one feels more natural for you. =)

  • Hey my PSN is Xdiablofoolx, I'm a Second Lieutenant and I'm looking for a clan to join. I tend to be in the air and dogfight. Feel free to look up my stats and invite me but I'm mainly just looking for a clan that is serious in Warhawk.

  • Heyas =)

    I don't actually have a clan myself anymore. Been really busy so I can't log on often anymore, hehe.

    But you seem like a serious player, and I think if you post on the Warhawk forums on the Playstation website, you'll get some clan invites for sure. =)

  • also why your always are in the warhawks whenes its more epic being in the grounds

    cuss you barly touch the froll in the other vidds D:

  • Hmm..

    When you comment on your own youtube videos, your English seems fine. You're either messing with me, or you've been in some type of accident recently that's seriously impeded your English ability. But anwyay-

  • I target all ranks without prejudice. Low or high, it doesn't matter- if you're in the air in a Warhawk, you're fair game. =)

    And yes, it's fun to be on the ground, sometimes. But in the air in a Warhawk is where it's at. I don't think it's "more epic being on the grounds."

  • btw i apoligise for my spelling english is my second laguash lol stile good video.

  • i saw all your vids how come they only show you tareting low ranks and whene there high ranks they suck like they just startead any wy good viidd you really explain it well you could at leats mention that whene targeting trops always fire wheere there going to be will running

  • This toturial was perfect! You explained everything very well! Also, you've got some ace flying skills!

    If there is one thing i don't like about the video, then it's the part where you shoot a couple of troops. That's wrong man! Not fair. You're too good for that!

  • Hmm, I guess you're right. LOL =P

    But you gotta stick it to the ground troops too sometimes eh? =)

  • Yeah, i admit. But! There is nothing more irritating than getting slayed from above with no chance for survival! Haha!

    But it's just too temptating sometimes.

  • i think air to ground is fair game.

  • Haha, I just realized that you booster before launching, too. I don't think you mentioned it in the video, but if you booster before firing the rocket, it's just that much less time your target has to react. Nice video, my PSN tag is ColonelChicken, I'll send you a friend request since you seem pretty darn good.

  • ColonelChicken huh? Obviously someone with some taste in PSN tag names, I see. =P

    And you're right! It's best to close in on your target when you're firing the homing missile to give them less time to react. =)

  • dude theres a glithe now if u do a roll while a missles is coming at u straight it goes crazy and may come bakc and target it u

  • if you wanna be an ace pilot, use pro flight

  • This video is not about Normal or Pro Flight. It's about how to use the Homing Missile.

    And at any rate, you are wrong. =)

  • well, i guess its just an opinion

  • dont theses guys know what flak is meant for but youre good nice job

  • Thanks =)

  • whats your PSN? you look pretty good you in a clan? add me PSN bigfatbona

  • My PSN is chickenNwaffles =) Haven't played in a while though because of school, but clan name (if I'm still in hah!) is Legion of Misanthropy (LOM).

    I'll add you on the PSN =)

  • I've played with you in the past.. Almost positive

  • How did you fly so fast, or do you have to rank-up or something?

  • I'm not flying any faster than any other planes. If you mean the speed boost(?), then you have to double tap the gas. =)

  • are u playing with the sixaxis controls?

  • Nope, just using the stick. Sixaxis gets crazy. =)

  • n00b question: you dont spawn with these, right?

  • You don't spawn with homing missiles; you have to fly around and pick up the powerups (bright yellow) to get 'em. =)

  • thanks. also, can the spawn missles lock on? i only get non-lock-on kills with em. sorry, fist timer.

  • Yeah, the missiles you spawn with (Swarm Missiles) can lock on. When you're engaging your target, instead of just pressing the trigger to fire the missile, hold the trigger to get your Warhawk to lock on. Afterwards, release to fire your locked on missiles. =)

  • You were answering another guys question and you inadvertently TOTALLY just helped me out.

    I just got a PS3 and this game and it's fun, but I was starting to think about trading it in because everyone was locking on to me and fucking me up, but I could never get a lock on anything.

    Now I know how...I'm off to go pwn right now. :) Thanks!

  • Haha, sweet man :) Have fun!

  • Yea, I went on and tried it out and got my first few kills.

    I still am not great at the game, but I'm working on it. Flying has a very steep learning curve, but once you memorize the controls it becomes very easy.

    :)

  • holy crap its the v22 on steriods

  • wat rank r u

  • omg im so frustrated i can never follow a person after i hit them with a homing missle they always seem to use their after burner and i cant chase them down i try to use the minimap except they go at a differant altitude and its so annoying i hit them and they get away...any advice?

  • nice vid man i sorta knew most of the things but still not bad

  • How are you hitting them with mg fire so well i always seem to miss

  • You have to try and keep the aim reticle over your target in order to get good MG hits.

  • who would win in a dogfight you or koutetsu tenshin?

  • Who?

  • What are the advantages of normal flight? I deciding whether to choose between pro flight and normal flight but I can't tell which one has more advantages. So why do you use normal flight like why do use it? (No criticising just trying to figure out with one)

  • Pro Flight advantages:

    -Camera is fixed to where your Warhawk is facing; good for pursuit

    -More control over your Warhawk

    -(Seemingly) tighter control

    -More forgivingness with collisions

    Normal Flight advantages:

    -Camera is fixed forward; can still lock on to enemies with your back turned (*but also harder to maintain lock in a dive)

    -Easier to shake lock-ons

    I'm sure there are more pros (and cons) to each style of flight. Try both and pick the one that fits how you want to fly.

  • IS there a tactic that usually always works for taking out a warhawk becuase ive been having trouble finding a comfortable tactic

  • I don't think there's a single tactic that

    -always- works for taking out Warhawks, as every pilot flies their Warhawks differently. But, there are things you can do that will increase your chances of success in a dogfight.

    This video focuses on the Homing Missile, but some of the tips hold true to other weapons, such as closing in on your target for better hit success, or softening up your targets with secondary weapon fire before engaging them with your big guns, etc. =)

  • Eh, Pro-Flight videos are so much more entertaining to watch. Standard flight is pretty boring.

  • Actually, I take that back - your style with normal flight is pretty sick.

  • Wheneveri fire machineguns at a target they somehow always dodge them what should i do?

  • could you give me the list of guns you use while on the ground cause i got the manual but there is no sight of the machine gun? could you help me out... thanks

  • there is no machine gun on the ground only on the warhawk itself.

  • Whats a good tactic to hit a moving target because when i shoot a ground trooper it always ends up short if theyre moving

  • You kind of have to anticipate the ground troops movements. It's easier in some situations than in others. For instance:

    Ground Troop out in the middle of nowhere might be hard to kill.

    -VS-

    Ground Troop heading to an item of interest (someone's dropped pack, health, weps, etc) is easier to kill, becuase you can probably see him b-lining for the item, so just aim for the item and pop him in the process.

    You'll have to get used to the funky angles as well... practice makes perfect. =)

  • whats the best tactic to follow a warhawk, i always seem to hit them with a homing missle and then they get away by using the after burner what should i do?

  • If you've got afterburner to burn, then chase em down. =) You want to try to stay close, but not too close though (mind you, they might have air mines!). I think the best thing to do though is to soften up your target a little before you slap em with a homing missile. You hit anyone with a homing missile straight off, and they're going to either A) Spazz out, or B) Run for their lives. Soften them up with a little MG or Swarmer, and then pop them with a homing missile to finish them off. =)

  • what a tactic jou ownz and I cand play that game can you help?

  • What do you mean you can't play? As in it won't work, or that it's difficult to play for you? =D

    If it's the latter then add me on PSN and maybe we can do a few rounds together. PSN is chickenNwaffles. I haven't been able to get on much lately, but I'll be back after my school tests are over. =P

  • hey i have a question u know that lightning bolt weapon how do u make it stick to the ground and stay there so it slowly damages everything close to it on the ground

  • Heyas,

    You have to hold L1 to charge the lightning gun. When it's fully charged, you can fire it at the ground for an area damage-over-time type effect. Or you can fire it at an unsuspecting Warhawk, which will slowly drain it's health, usually until death. =)

  • hold down the buton and charge it but make shure you have all bolts

  • Damn dude, you know how to use them! Cool vid, thx alot.

  • Pro flight is a pain in the arse to learn. I've never used it and eat pro flight dudes for breakfast.

    You can always spot them they fly all crazy sidways and are sitting ducks.

  • Use Pro Flight

  • I used Pro Flight for about 30 hours. It's fun and all, but nothing extraordinary. Though, I think you confuse Pro Flight with 'leetness?'. I don't want to be mean or anything, but let's look at your Warhawk stats: Josh653 Kills 1221 Deaths 1315 KDR 0.93 Global Accuracy 14.42% Wins 90 Losses 111 Win-Loss Ratio 0.81 Score per Minute 18.95 Low K/D ratio, and a serious Score per Minute... you've been tossing flags around, and want to tell me how to fly my Warhawk? =P
  • I was suggesting it.

    Don't have to get all defensive on me

  • Ok =)

  • im starting warhawkall over cause im having a rpoblem with my rank i have over 120573 pooints and im stile at wingman and i earn the necersery badge for it too i know this sukcs i want new clothes aredy >:O thhis ever happend to you ??

  • is ok :P at leats some one is willing to teach noobs the secrets of warhawk >:) but it would help noobs alot making avid off combos :) or at leats teach em how to ust he litgh ninggun X) like if you fire it at you base the moment a tow missle is about it hit ill explode before it hits the ground X) same thingwith a alie that has a flagg and you see a tow missle coming :O we shoud play some times or mke vids or pwnd noobs >:O

  • oh sorry i wrote homing mmissle instead of tow missle explaning thta one combo

  • Yes, there are a lot of different 'combos' to kill in a Warhawk. However, this tutorial only focuses on the use of the Homing Missile, and is meant to show players that it's more about just locking on and firing. =P

  • you should teach combos like lighting gun + homing missle

    cloak + mine

    lithing gun + tow missle

    bwt did you knew that iff you hite some one with a litghing gun and thene fire a homing missle you increase your chnaces offf hitting it why this ? cause the electricidy from the gun stops the missle whenes it to close to it the boom it hitst he player :)

  • i say you where a good teacher but not so well pilot i always think in wahwrk i not even second hand lutenits are matsh for me i always take the litghning gun and fully charge it thne i flite around but i have the map on creen as well .why this i whahs enemies plane fly by iss i see one getting too close to mee and in a fast speed it meen only one thing homing missle then i flite upp ass fast as i can dotgi ng it thne i hit it with lighting gun th ne i hom missle him out ofthre :)

  • So... You do realize you just made a TUTORIAL using normal flight... noob.
