Why are folks clueless on Wake?

Re: Why are folks clueless on Wake?

Wake is my favorite map, and my clan server is a 24/7 Wake server. The "magic trick" as my clan calls it is the F-35 squad leader rush to Airfield, having 3-4 people spawn on him when he lands at Airfield. Works amazingly well, everyone is already in their vehicles looking to rape the Essex/Island.

that is highly improbable when playing on a pub

Re: Why are folks clueless on Wake?

Heh today on FuShe Pass I flipped my DPV on one of the mountain roads and fell down a cliff right next to PLA-owned Bridge Base. I had only 1 bar of health and was a medic. I pulled out the med bag to heal myself when an APC pulled out of the base. The turret looked right at me but the dude drove right past me. Then two FAVs drove past me as well. I just shrugged and capped the base.

lol thats how stupid PLA is :p

Fly the blackhawk right down the middle! It works EVERY time! They never expect it! lol

Re: Why are folks clueless on Wake?

Not going to read through 4 pages, probably already been mentioned:

I fly high(450+ feet) and provide a safe HALO point for my squad until a flag is captured AND secured before bailing out.

Once a squad member hits the ground safely, he normally makes a new squad where the frequently killed carrier folks may now join and spawn on the island.

I do this on SF Iron Gator too...

Yes they do, I was playing wake the other day and this noob just kept flying through the middle in his BH, I would just destroy him in my j-10.

Re: Why are folks clueless on Wake?

Beginning of the round, you hop in a Blackhawk. The pilot flies straight at the island at 100m. What happens? BOOM! J10 gets 6 kills. When they DO make it they go for the North or South Villages, the most heavily defended bases.

When I get the BH at the beginning I go WAY out and around at VERY low altitude and go for the middle bases, the Beach or North Village which are rarely defended. 99% of the time I make it in the BH and get the base as the J10s are busy raping the carrier.

Why do so few folks get this?

Wake is my most played map, and believe me I feel your pain, but it just makes it that much better when you get on a good server, or with a good team, and Wake becomes the heated battle it is supposed to be.

Anyone played IO Wake yet? I would imagine that would be interesting.

Name one that takes more teamwork to win. I am speaking from the usmc side of course.

Re: Why are folks clueless on Wake?

One time, I took the Blackhawk with a full group of people, and I flew it to the far west side of the map away from the island. Then comes a J10 firing at us. So I yell "Bail Out!" So, everyone jumped out, including myself and landed in the ocean. All six of us began swimming our way toward Beach, which took us almost half the game. And since one of us were a squad leader, two more guys spawned on him. It was a long, tiring swim. Few of us made it. Very emotional.

Re: Why are folks clueless on Wake?

I hate playing USMC on wake so much. You can't tell people what to do so I just figure I should help them out. I usually get the cobra and hit the north tip taking out tanks, jeeps, and any AA emplacements. Usually someone is in the blackhawk and goes and takes north base while the boaters are assaulting north village. That's basicly every round of wake. Then it's a struggle for the airfield, usually it's capped then the Chinese take it right back.
