Re: Squad Hopping & Wake Island

it really is going to mess up two man squads that cycle the leader when one dies.

awwwww......maybe try using the squad feature like it was supposed to be played?

Re: Squad Hopping & Wake Island

So do you guys think banning squad hoping will make Wake Island that much more difficult for the USMC to get a beach head?

How about Iron Gator for the MECsf in SF?

I see this as a boon for Chinese Forces on Wake, but over all I agree with the spirit of the ban, though it would suck if you got stuck on a crappy team.

USMC will never win that map again. after the new patch

yea ok i'll sit at the airfield while my squadmate has all the fun sniping and can spawn off me constantly.... who in their right mind wants to sit there doing ****all all game by being a spawn point?

fun comes from playing the game how the player wants to play it not be forced to constantly charge a flag(and thats not one flag.. its musical flags... back and forth between ones you took before) with 5 other people all the time.

oh yea it would be harder. when you spawn as USMC hit up the arty island grab a boat and head for the south point where the car is. no chinese ever spawn there, youll get it every time!

Re: Squad Hopping & Wake Island

I don't think so. Wake's my fav map and I've seen plenty of non-squadhopping squads take a flag and get that necessary foothold. As far as squadhopping goes I used to think it was a horrible way to play and maybe in principle it is still, but now I just pick up my handy shotgun and own some squadhopping n00bs. Gets my points WAY up there.

Re: Squad Hopping & Wake Island

They really need to add another BH and increase BH armor for the USMC to have an equal of winning on a pub server.

nope, people need to spawn on the small island at the begining of the round and take a boat directly to the first bit of possible land. if you have no troops on land, you have no chance of winning, people also need to be smarter squad leaders, get near the base and camp, dont try to take it, have your squad do that. im not saying that people shouldnt take the blackhawk, im not even saying they shouldnt load it up. but what i am saying is that
a) dont put all your eggs(troops) in one basket(blackhawk)
b) 1.fly either super low touching down at the first safe spot close to a cp
2.fly at medium and have people bail as soon as you are over land (not cps, LAND!)
3.fly super high and halo in, only the smartest j10ers will be a problem

you can have one black hawk, you can have ten, the j10s will still blast the greedy people that wont bail till over a flag. also j10s could take out blackhawks with ease before its armor was reduced, the armor is fine as is.

what really needs to happen is it should tell you how many are spawning at each point, so maybe the smart ones will spawn on the small island seeing a full deck comming. oh, and aa/flares need to work properly.
