*other people*: use the high altitude package Nic: you weren’t supposed to do that! 4:09

When you’re so high up, you don’t even render into the distance scaling lol

No one: Niccaman: *makes the quarantine better*

Some guy kept doing that to me a while back. I kept falling for it like an idiot lol “Maybe I can shoot him down before I stall!”

I've been using this strategy since the Pacific came out. Being a hustory buff knowing this was a real strategy Japanese Zeroes used on early American aircraft. The extra 100m actually gives the lower plane time to get away. I climb straight up and tip my nose right before i stall and let gravity make me turn faster. Edit: they also increased the altitude AA guns can reach and disabled flares at high altitude. High altitude package is useless now. Thanks Dice. You still somehow manage to break your game for the sake of making things fair for noobs. Im not buying the next one.

Me during video : Mmm I’m gonna try this myself Me After video : Wait I uninstalled this game 3 months ago

Ey, here's a challenge: Play DCS.

This is more effective on the BF109 because neither of the Spitfires have that spec, only the wack ass Mosquito has high altitude.

That's exactly how I configured my Corsair! The high altitude is ideal for precision dive bombing, AND this strategy that you have shown. Great vid!

I am so glad that this game is still alive and very well. Love this game so much. I wish this will never died. But there is nothing to avoid this game from dying. It makes me very sad indeed.

Always love to see a BFV vid from you nicca

I already discovered the high altitude pack on the bf 109 g-6 four months after the release if the game. And i have to say 200 meters is a major buff because 100 meters were in my opinion useful and balanced

The funny thing is I've been doing this since the release of the Pacific, and it was somehow even more powerful than the way displayed in this video. I also remember I was using this strategy the whole game and ran a 58-0 game, so this strategy was and still is very unique.

YES!! Welcome back to BfV Nicc! Haven't played the update yet but this strategy always worked great using the G6 w/ high altitude. Wait for the Spitfire to fall, then use your higher stall to dive back on 'em.

00:53 "im almost in space" he is just 200 meters up in the air 😂 warthunder player would be triggerd

Great video as always man🤙🏼I've been using this high altitude package tactic for a while, gotta make the game fun for yourself haha

Literally been playing battlefield forever and never gave flying a try to battlefield 4.. and then not again after that. The videos have been helping me improve a lot on battlefield 5. Got lots of time currently once I live In Minneapolis Minnesota and we can’t leave our homes after 8 this week till 7 in the morning

I found your channel like 4 or 5 days before actually now im watching your vidioes for three times or more i mostly like pro pilots and rage chats ❤️

Lol that niccaman “Wooooo!!!” Your videos are always so entertaining!

I do this all the time with the high altitude package. Works 99.99% of the time with the Pacific planes at least. About the only way it doesn't is either multiple planes on you or they have aa helping them. Stay low and when they see you and come after you just pull up and hope like hell they dont get you lol. Thanks for giving up my secret to everyone else haha

Hey niccaman, I've just discovered your channel and I love it so far, I bought BFV just because of these videos. I was wondering if you would ever consider doing a keyboard-mouse camera? since im not sure what crazy moves you have to make to do these kinds of stunts. thanks!

This is by far from a new strategy. Some of the hardest pilots I've ever ran into to kill use the high altitude and sometimes smoke. They always stay really high and wait for a dogfight to break out then they swoop in and kill you off their teamates. Also they will climb when attacked then smoke. When they smoke you can hardly see to shoot them. The bombers put out a lot of smoke. So then they just wait till you start to go back down and get on you and you die. The best strategy I've came up with to avoid that attack is to fall like your going back down and give them a second to chase. Then climb right back up to your ceiling and stall again. They can't stall the same ceiling as you as easy and you can fly slowly along that ceiling. Then when you do that once or twice just dive like a bat out of hell and I often spiral and corkscrew back to the resupply.

This was an actual tactic used by a Japanese ace in WWll, won many battles

"Hey buddy, do you care that I exist" Niccaman 2020 No but seriously this is a very good laodout, you have always the option to go safe on high altitude

"Im basically in space" quote of the century

This was one of my first games after buying BF5 because of your videos and you absolutely destroyed me haha GGWP

Niccaman:we're so high that we're in space! Me:that's literally an average 500 or 1000 meters in war thunder lol.

i experienced this a while ago on wake island. It was kinda aggravating as i was on the bad side of the deal. I would stall out and the other player would chase but I was able to quickly recover and turn around and fight by using the turbo. It was a fairly fun dog fight as we were both attempting to use our advantages against the opposing player.

I been using this tactic when the game first released with the BF-109

Finally the king of the skies returns to battlefield 😂 keep it up Nic

Sometimes i use this extra 100m to become a uav by dropping flares while going back and forth, also when im using this same strategy I use the extra smoke to not get shot as much while going up and being chased

great dog fighting! my fav of your vids!

hammerheads when you flip over, rope a dope is the name for the manoeuver

I always did this but now it's gonna be even better

Try it with the BF 109-G6. No spitfire has the alt upgrade so you'll win almost every encounter. Love the content and keep it up

I have been doing this even before the Pacific update came and been winning almost every dogfight because my enimes usually don't expect it ;)

These video are awesome, they inspire me to try and at least do good with a plane. But its near impossible for me

This is very interesting in that perspective

Nicca when he was yelling at the other players to notice him is starting to sound a lot like a yandere.

Hey nicca idk if you've seen it already but on the ps store there's a free to play game called "dogfights ww2" it's basically a all aircraft battle Royale game it was super fun I just tried it for the first time last night

It's about time he's posted another Battle field 5 video

This was and actual tactic against the zero but with an F6F hellcat which looked similar to the F4F wildcat which had a lower stall altitude than the zero. So when the Japanese encountered the hellcat they thought they would be able to out climb them and end up stalling before the hellcat and then the hell cat would turn to end up on the zeros tail while in a stall and down he went.

First. Oh wait never mind. Love your videos though. If it weren’t for you, I would have given up on war thunder long ago, and battlefield 5 wouldn’t even cross my mind. Thanks a lot, Nick. Stay safe!

Liked just for the instant joy when you figured it out. Also, try it with the bright pink skin.

How are you so high ? Nicca: Yes

Nicca casually climbing 50m/s with a prop ww2 plane. LOL

Completely off topic but shoutout to the infantry and armor who pulled off a comeback while nick was dogfighting in space

I use this tactics all the time. Just let any guy follow you and when they get stall, you just fire a gun like a maniac. Just a tip, when you let any guy follow you into high altitude, you should use smoke to block the opponents' eye. But this tactic won't be useful when the opponents also have high altitude package though. Also another tip, when you let any guy follow you into high altitude, don't just fly straight but fly circle, use combination of spinning and smoke is the best.

I’ve been getting great kills by the high attitude package but with the zero and when I’m so high up I dive bomb to my targets but I keep an eye out for the Anti Air guns or other enemy planes on the stormy pacific islands or on wake island🌴🛩🌊

Basically just every warthunder strat

Good thing AA has no problem at all shooting that high

No now I can’t use high altitude mosquito because they got it for bf 109

I’ve literally just began bfv just to try this since I’m not a good pilot well in shooting planes done

Oh I literally do this all the time. 4 light mgs and finned barrels with the High Altitude. People chase me and I literally take off. People get soo mad and keep trying to take me out. So much that they all eventually change their loadouts.

I find it much easier to use that strategy with the zero Air to ground because of the nose guns get direct hits on the body of the course air

I’ve been doing this maneuver since the pacific released.

high altitude seems better suited for defensive maneuvers as a counter, you can only use that height offensively for bombing which i doubt would be accurate, thanks dice

I missed the Pacific. Thank you!

Assuming that nobody else has that perk.. Great tactics!

I've actually been doing this for a while u dont even need high altitude package just the supercharger just like historically it works the best with the bf109 for its great climbing it's what i always do and get away with against spits

Hi Niccaman. I love your vids and comments even if I m French with my very bad english :))))))) So just an advice please. I love BFV in plane mode but it's really too long for waiting an aircraft sometimes. I ve tried Warthunder but with an Xbox joystick it's really hard with the yaw wobble... Please let me know if you love another game with aircraft ?? Thanks a lot !!

I have been doing this before the patch. FUN

KZfaq randomly popped your video up so now im here :)

ahhh i love niccas vids xd

I have always used this strategy while on the German side against British in a G6. Dive and zoom baby all day. Ppl used to be so pissed when i did this all the time to win the fight.

A piece of useless serendipity... At the outbreak of WWII, the main US carrier fighter was the F4F Wildcat. The Japanese Zero pilots discovered that they could use the hammerhead maneuver effectively against the Wildcat because the Zero had a higher ceiling. The Zero would get the Wildcat to chase them into a climb, and then when the F4F stalled and started to lose altitude, the Zero would reverse their climb and nail the Wildcat in the dive. When the more powerful F6F Hellcat entered service, the Zero pilots that tried this same tactic got smoked because the Hellcat could out-perform the Zero in almost every category, including rate of climb and ceiling. The kill-to-loss rate for the F6F jumped to 19:1.

you can boom n zoom now. that's gonna be a good one

cant wait for a bf1 video nicca

This is just Niccaman wanting people to notice him for 10 minutes. Or, as they say, this should have an alternate title: "Niccaman wanting people to notice him for 10 minutes"

Finally a way to beat fighters with the Mosquito

I was watching one of your older videos and I was like damn wish I could get sponsored like that but then was like I need a following first I was also wondering what you do with your old equipment pcs keyboards etc.

I usually pull up, reduce power and they overshoot usually and i get on their tail. Ive tried this for the past hour and this is a ridiculous tactic to use. Before the patch on the Hamada map i had my spitty with the 8 dumbfire rockets and some 109 kept bugging me. I followed him and kept pulling up and going to his max alt, he had on the max alt package and i was so close to killing him each time before i stalled. Either way he died by ramming into a cliff face

Niccaman got so high his altitude meter was high

boom and zoom. that a real tacktick bye the way.

This makes me want to get the game now

Finally another video🙏🙏🙏🔥🔥🔥

Energy trapping 2: Electric Boogaloo

Nooo Nicca, this strategy has been working for me since forever. Now everyone gonna be doing it

Welp better watch out for planes with a big A propeller

Niccaman I do dis strategy all the time

I was flying in jets in bf3 and 4, i was also good in dogfighting, but one week ago i started playing bf V so i've got a question, do i have to control speed in planes like it was in bf3/4 or i need to hold only W to have higher speed?

Great video

Nicca use the bright red plane to attract them more

They buffed it on the 109 it's been like that on the Pacific planes since they came out

Do a challings for make the wurst class of a plane high kill game😂😂❤love your channel hopefully you do nu challings

Try to Spiral Climb when you have that package

as a new player, should I buy it? and if yes, which version?

Never knew you could drop mines 😅

It’s like the War Thunder Cinematic trailer thing.

The should add like 15 v 15 dogfights either in a game mode by itself or just over grand operations or breakthrough. I think it would make the game much more immersive. Still In good shape though

I'm guessing that you were just hoping that they didn't have the high altitude engine as well?

When they stall, turn back into them and apply your airbrakes so you can take him out at a higher altitude to track attention from another enemy plane and Prince and repeated. Whatever you do, DON'T follow him to the deck.

Oh shit. I thought I was the only one that did this.

I think this is really good for new players

Hey Nicca, have you experienced with the Fliegerfaust lately? It seems to be one-shoting fighter planes.

So,you figured this out just now🤣🤣🤣🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️🤦🏾‍♂️

Can u use ure bombs tht high because if u can u could spot a target at low altitude and the clb so they think ure gone and then dive bomb on them or high altitude bomb em

(Apocalypse incoming for Superchargers) have beaten one of the best pilots in BF5 with this.

nice one!

I use high altitude and it does come in handy. Killed many and dropped my bombs on the noobs. So funny
