wait, what exactly did sonic do? were your teamies just sitting in a base giving each other ammo and stuff for points, so you killed them all?

DZ, him and his whole squad sat there the ENTIRE last game just throwing ammo bags to eachother to get points and doing nothing else, I felt my cause was justified.
Or whatever you're talking about. But this is a BF2 thread. <!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd--> Yeah.
But to end it: The MP is the same as PT, just with updated/new maps, and the addition of a co-op storyline.
Back to BF2! I love it when you have two teams totally using teamwork. I remember spamming to my team "RETREAT BUT HOLD THEM AT YOUR FORMER POSITION!" 5 or 6 times, and suddenly, EVERY SINGLE ONE of them died. A 14 man team, all gone, like that. Just bam. Artillery ftw. <!--QuoteEnd--> </td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'> <!--QuoteEEnd--> Jeah, it's kinda annoying how you just can't properly defend a target without dying at least once to artillery fire. It should be more of a supportive act and less of a "I AM THE COMM BURNING ANTS WITH A MAGNIFYING GLASS" experience.
personally I find the best use for artillary is when you see some lone red blip about to take a flag, and there's no one on your team around to save it. it's nice to be able to defend some cap point when no one else can get there...
I have found my calling, and it is in the form of a single, large bullet fired from under some trees from a bolt action rifle.
I was sniping SO well at one point, that the enemy team could NEVER find me, CONSTANTLY died, and the commander used over HALF of his arty strikes on JUST me, because his team could never locate me and kill me.
I'm so unlocking the .50 cal when I get the chance.

For what is worth how much sniping you going to do? if yu do a lot of sniping get it if you dont don't and it cant shoot into aiplanes cockpits and i doubt you would get many hits on a xhopper pilot just shoot it with an antitank gun

Most cap points have buildings or something to hide under that will keep artillery from falling directly on you and keep the strikes out of range.

From my experiece, whenever arty is comind down around you. DONT MOVE. the second I move arty falls right on my face and when i'm stood still I allways seem to survive.
Hmm. Is there any in-game notification when arty is about to fall in your area? Like, can you hear the shells? I get this gut feeling that artillery is coming, and it always comes shortly after.

Yeah see right, there's this thing..and it's called a "minimap". And on this minimap there's this big red pulsating circle with a picture of an artillery cannon in the middle, when that's over your guy I think that's a pretty good indication to get the **** out of the way.

Edit: Sonic, he means when its NOT from your team.
I always know when the Artillery is coming. My first objective is to run as far away from Sniperchance as possible, as he is usually the first to get hit.
I've stopped playing Kubra Dam until that cat is found and put out of its misery…I can hear it moaning late at night as I play and it fills my mind with images of unspeakable horrors…
*flash*
I’m somewhere in the desert…the wind picks up…I feel…anticipation…everything is hazy: a new round has begun.
I can’t control myself…I lay down an anti-tank mine…what’s this on the horizon…a fully loaded APC…I scream and scream at the top of my lungs…my face turns red and I begin to wavier but they continue on heedless of my warnings. An explosion…I am killed in the chaos…the sky to my upper left is aglow with horrors that bear my name.
*flash*
I wake up screaming…”NOOO -70 WHY GOD! AND -2 FOR A SUICIDE WTH!?”
you waste too much energy fretting over stat riggers... tell the enemy where they are and/or and change servers =P and instead of losing the equivalent of 4 kills to TK one of them, stand in front of one of them firing off their ammo so they can resupply, let them TK you, and then punish them :> that way THEY lose the points of 8 resupplies...
God... Theres only ONE thing about this game that REALLY...I mean..REALLY pisses me off.
Autobalance takes completely random people, INCLUDING THE FREAKING SQUAD LEADERS AND COMMANDERS!
Autobalance should ONLY balance out those NOT in squads, because there's always like 5 of them un-squadded.
Sorry. I'm slightly ****. I was piloting the Blackhawk on Kubra Dam with 2 very dedicated gunners. We rarely died and racked up massive ammounts of kills... then on the second round I'm switched over. **** on that. I left out of frustration. =/

It's okay ... could be better.

BTW: Anti-Tank's MG is absolutely crap-tastic.
Mg is meant to ber poo or we would have the whole 'nam thing over again
