Excellent SpecOps Strategy

[Raidyr]

Ok, my friend and I have been doing this the past week or so. Since we mostly play Chinese maps, there is an abundance of transport helicopters as all the other people grab the fighters/bombers. We both go spec ops, and take a helo. We fly high and fast at the beginning of the round, and then jump out. 10 C4s is enough to take out most, if not all, the commander assets. Then, we jack a tank or attack helo if there is one there. This plan has been winning games all week, because it forces the enemy to fight our team without key tools. This strategy wont exactly give you tons of points, but it is a very good way to end the game before it starts

EDIT: I know its kind of messy, I will clean the post later when I have time.

Re: Excellent SpecOps Strategy

i do similar and steal their main vehicles, but if you do it on a clanserver, the gay admins kick you for "stealing vehicles" EVEN IF THE BASES CAN BE CAPPED ROFL.
funny how they dont kick you for taking an enemy tank or car aint it...

Re: Excellent SpecOps Strategy

How is that a strategy though lol?

If you played a good team all the assets would be repaired right after.. commander will drop a supply crate on his UAV first and then go engy and repair the rest if he needs to.

I thought it was common sense/knowledge to blow assets.


BTW, next time you do it, have your friend go support, and you go spec ops. Blow up all of the assets, and then wait for the commander to drop a supply crate, and then blow it again. Or if you see an engineer, don't kill him, let him repair it and then just blow it up after he leaves.

The key is timing. If you do this at the very beginning, extremely fast, there is no way he could get the assets repaired by the time your team has most, if not all, of the map under control.

..ya..

Well, I guess my point is though, this will only apply to pubbing with random people/commanders.

If you happen to be playing against a team with like 8+ people from 1 clan on the other team this will be pointless.

Re: Excellent SpecOps Strategy

best spec ops strategy is to c4 friendly planes and choppers incase someone takes your jet/chopper

Re: Excellent SpecOps Strategy

ya dude.....i do that too.....

i create a squad called 'Spec Ops' and i take the transport heli waaaaaay up high bout 500m, and i bail out about 350-400m away from the assets and freefall all that distance...then at the last second, i deploy my chute.....i plant allmy c4s....., then ask my commander for a supply drop a little out of the way.....when i get refilled, i blow my first five, and place whatever more i need to finish the assets off, and blow them, so it all happens pretty much at once....then i re-arm...

i always try to stay still, under cover of trees or whatever....the only time i come out of concealment is to plant C4....If the commander issues a supply crate to repair his assets, i re-arm offa that, place my c4 on the asset, and one on the box, and blow it all.......if he dispatches an engineer, i wait untill the assets is operational, kill the engineer, and blow the asset again....i spent entire rounds doing just this....quite a bit.....its great fun, and like u said, doesnt offer the most points....but its still teh funs

Re: Excellent SpecOps Strategy

another kind of stratagy i use on karkand is to place one c4 on the opening to the hotel when im the mec and then wait in the corner for people to come through then blow there heads off.the problem is though one round u could get bout 20 pts from doing it but another u could only get bout 7pts

Re: Excellent SpecOps Strategy

I was playing Spec Ops yesterday, and took UAV and Scan out.
I thought, let's wait for a crate and do it again...
But the damn things got repaired without a crate or engineer to it.
Would it be possible that an overflying jet (about 3 passes) could do the trick if there was an engineer pilot on board?
Or was the other team glitching ?
(was Armored Fury Midnight-map)

Re: Excellent SpecOps Strategy

Yeah that's possible with the jets... but who flies as engy?

Most likely the commander went over and repaired it and you didn't see him.

Re: Excellent SpecOps Strategy

I've seen assets repair themselves...

I think that is what papavictorlima is talking about.

One second they were burnt out shells of nothing, the next they were magically operational, yet smoking. Sometimes with flames, yet still operational.

Re: Excellent SpecOps Strategy

Me and friends like to go chinese on wake and keep commander assets down the whole round, meaning we will hold arty island...

The insurgent UAV on Warlord does that quite a lot, thought it was me going mad.
