Re: Only a few of us left...

I'll use vehicles sometimes, but I find them more annoying as there's always a competition for them, and I have a hard time being in a tank/apc driven by someone else unless I know their skills beforehand. Combined with the fact that it's rare that my "armor please squad up" requests get granted, have pretty much left me to groundpounding.

We do exist

Lol, isn't it ironic what opposite experiences are possible. I've clocked 740 hours as engy. Way back in '42 I tired of being raped from behind (it hurt me deep), and developed a routine for vehicle heavy maps. Spawn at main, take the biggest iron available and set off. Die, respawn at main and repeat. Have never had problems in '42 or BF2 getting the armour, in fact I find it so easy getting armour around half of my commanding time is in armour too. Since my computer was so crap back then I couldn't do roles that required too twitchy reflexes, so infantry and flying was pretty impossible.

Now that my game rig is decent I play infantry roles and have around 600 hours with the other 6 kits combined. Although I'm handy in any role I enjoy assault and AT the most, they're just the most fun. Having seen what I consider as point farming on Karkand and to a lesser extent other infantry maps over the last 15 months I've developed a distaste for the support and medic kits. I've played them to expert and left it at that.

Re: Only a few of us left...

My fav weapon for the last month has been the RPK-74, it suits my playing syle, I have never been a "bunny hopper", or "prone spammer" or any other UT2004 BS, I don't even jump, & prone (I think it is a lame tactic that exploits game mechanics ie...animation lag), I basically short strafe/prone/roll/zoom, or just prone/zoom making the most of cover, speed, & accuracy in a realistic style that does not ruin the "emersion", also contrary to popular opinion, you can hit targets standing up w/ this support weapon@ short range unzoomed, & @ medium range zoomed

"THIS IS MY WEAPON, THERE ARE MANY LIKE IT, BUT THIS 1 IS MINE, IF I TAKE CARE OF HER, SHE WILL TAKE CARE OF ME, HER NAME IS CHARLENE, I WILL AIM STRAIGHTER THAN MY ENEMY THAT IS TRYING TO KILL ME, THIS I SWEAR BEFORE GOD, AMEN"

I keep her well oiled, clean, & dry, she stays by my side, even when I am sleeping

"IT IS NOT A RIFLE THAT KILLS, IT IS A HARD HEART THAT KILLS":evil:

"1 man is a waste of ammo, 5 men is a juicy opportunity"

I basically go medic when no 1 else will
