    You'd be surprised at a engineer squad's ability (Goomba and CarbonFire) to lock down a shitty tank driver (me). Just take cover close to a ridge or in the trees and rocks that dot the map's borders.

    I always check BFBCS.com to see what star I'm getting next, before I play.

    I'm just starting to work on gold stars for all main weapons (not counting AR attachments), so I check which weapon is the next on the list each evening.

    I'm the same way. Lets me know what to focus on for the night.

    Wow that probably the most I have ever played of one game this whole decade. And I am only level 35.

    Talk to each other, reveal yourself only to attack high priority targets (if you're going Anti-Tank) and use perks beneficial to your desired role. Don't take Magnum ammo when you're dropping C4 everywhere, for instance. Every little bit of explosive damge counts. Tanks can and will survive proximity explosions that aren't juiced up with Ex. Mk II.

    Basically, be sensible and prioritize.

    There is no need to use MK2 explosives with C4 these days. 2 packs will take down any tank and the MK2 does not change that. Magnum ammo is far more of a benefit for the G3 or VSS and the weapon upgrade perks are best for M14 and shotties. AT engies are about the only people who should ever use MK2 and only with the RPG or AT4. Fuck the CG. I wish they would take it out of the game all together. I can't understand what I ever saw in it.

    I wish the new maps were a bit more C4 friendly.

    Not many tanks use the paths on Harvest Day and Heavy Metal. You end up having to using all your C4 covering the area where the tank will probably sit to capture a flag.

    I gave up on trying to use c4 on the new maps. Especially Heavy Metal. I will roll with Mortars or smoke.

    Of the new maps, I think I like Harvest Day and Oasis the best. Playing Conquest on Harvest Day with a good tank driver is a blast.

    Since the respawn time became 10 seconds, I can't recall a single time the attackers managed to win, a shame since Oasis and Harvest Day both have really open openings and really close quarters closings.
    Yet the 10 second respawns just adds more fun and less aggravations all around.

    So the best solution would be to make mcoms easier to take down: whether by shortening time to destruction or its resistance to explosives, or increasing time to disarm, or maybe increasing vehicle spawn rate.

  • CampyCampy Registered User regular
    I just had something simultaneously awesome and shitty happen.

    So I'm rocking out (read: sucking) on Heavy Metal and jump into a tank. As per standard, pretty soon I hear the beep beep beep of my incoming doom. I look up to see 3 rockets heading towards me. They pretty much simultaneously connect with my hapless vehicle and blow it up so hard my computer crashes. Cue cursing and laughter in equals measures.

    And that marks the end of this evenings man shootings, good games chaps!

    I sniped Ebo and Carbonfire out of a chopper with my tank last night on heavy metal. I had V-optics and was on the friendly side of B. Carbon was way off over B and flying low. My first shot missed as did my second and 3rd shots. They must have seen me after the 3rd one because they took off. They were just about to fly over a ridge. All I could see was the top of the cockpit and the blades. I said to myself, "fuck it" and just lobbed one high and long. It looks like it is going to completely miss. I than see vehicle damage points and an explosion from beyond that same ridge.

    Killing a chopper with a tank is really just the most fun thing you can do in this game.

    EDIT: And what do you all think about the current map list. Should I mix in more of the new maps or is it fine the way it is? I have also started tinkering with the ticket counts and whatnot of individual maps. So far there are just a couple, but I plan on tweaking each map we play.

    I got auto-kicked twice last night to make room for people on the list, but I should be on the list. Other than that, good times despite my usual suckitude (except for the time I tagged someone with a tracer and then RPG-ed them. That was pretty awesome since I happened to have the tracer gun out when I saw them :P).

    I see a bunch of new people on the list. I will update it when I get home tonight. Make sure you are on vent to tell me when you get kicked. I will sometimes kick pubbies, so make sure you have PA tags on too.

    Cold War is a giant clusterfuck. I mean, damn, mans everywhere you look. I think everyone, attackers and defenders, ends up with a boatload of kills.

    Great map to level up ye olde stars on guns.

    I'm not sure I have any gold stars left to get on weapons...hmm.

    edit: looks like 20 more kills with the shotgun attachment, and hten it's all vehicles left.

    Yeah it was weird - I thought I had put my name on the list right when you first put it up, but I guess I didn't, so I did it again last night. Oh well.

    I love Cold War. It is the perfect map to use the VSS or 40mm shotty on. I was tearing it up as recon last night. Motoring the fuck out of building stuffed with guys is so much fun. You know when you mortar a 3 story house, some of the shells punch through the ceilings and go off on the lower floors. I got a triple kill last night with on a single house.

    Yeah I was wrecking people with the F2000 and the 40mm GL on that map last night. At least until I had to reload...

    I've never actually tried the 40mm shotty, but I'm a big fan of the USA-12. I may have to try the 40mm tonight.

    It's pretty satisfying blasting someone in the face with the 40mm shotty.

  • SigtyrSigtyr Registered User regular
    The 40MM shotgun actually feels like how an actual shotgun should act. It's also pretty nice being able to have a reliable third weapon to switch to if you so happen to empty out both your rifle and your handgun.

    Though, you may want to choose it depending on the map. On maps like Oasis, White Pass or that conquest desert without the vehicles whose name currently escapes me, I'd never pass up the rifle grenade for it.

  • NovafoxNovafox Registered User regular
    I've just always found having 40mm grenades or smoke so handy, hard to pass them up.

    steam_sig.png
  • That_GuyThat_Guy Registered User regular
    I have found that, if an enemy's torso is taking up the entire crosshair, it will instantly kill them. I like rolling 416, ACOG, Magnum, and 40mm Shotty. My favorite thing to do is sneak up on people from around corners. Say a recon throws a motion mine and you pick them up. If I nail the first guy and I can usually switch to my primary and get another kill or 2. It is so satisfying to jump into someone and fill them full of buckshot.

    Warning: The 40mm shot gun flat out just doesn't work some times. It will make the hit noise, the headshot noise, spray blood, but just not reg the hit. The times it works more than make up for the times it does not, though.

    I've never lived long enough to empty both my main gun and my sidearm of all ammo, it must be nice. :P
