And those Air to Air TV guided shots... Beautiful.
I have the most fun piloting but I get the most kills driving the tank...
I have 7777 points, I've played medic for 33 hours, and I just now got basic first aid =P I guess that makes me a non-team player or something... I *thought* I did a fair amount of healing...
doing calculations based on my stats is fun - even if you prefer one kit, if you divide your kills with a kit by your time played on that kit, you may find you're better with another kit... I play mostly medic but I have a slightly better record w/ AT, for instance...
as irrefutable proof of how worthless sniper is vs. anyone who knows what they're doing, I've played the game for over 60 hours and I've been killed by sniper rifles 10 times. I've only been killed by the grenade launcher 4 times, so there's another useless weapon for ya.
I own so hard with grenade launchers. I've destroyed countless LAV's and Buggy's with them. Not to mention a blackhawk that was severely damaged, trying to secure a point on two occasions. Assault or Medic are probably my favorite classes, with AT coming in third, not because I like it a ton, but because I find myself picking it out of neccesity.

I think I'm a pretty good pilot, but my KD is about 3:1 because I seem to be a kamakazi pilots + lag + teamkiller magnet.

If a medic is trying to heal you, <i>do not run away from him</i>. He is <i>not</i> going to tickle you under the armpits, he is trying to <i>keep you alive</i>. If the medic sees that you're extremely low on health and throws you a bag, try and pick it up so that you can stay standing upright.
"But he can just defibrilate me!", you say. That brings the medic into the line of fire, and besides, it's not always possible (when your corpse is sliding down a slope or is knocked off a building/cliff).
Please. If you have no respect for that teampoint that gives you life, at least have some respect for the medic.
