^Haha.

I've blown some teammate's head off because he popped out in front of me while I was shooting. Bastard owes me 10 XP...

I am beginning to wonder if the loadout-class should be tailored to the map or your style?
Like an M4 w/Noobtube on Ambush, Backlot,Bog.......but a G36C or Mp5 doubletap on Downpour, Wetwork seems deadlier...?
Or can you have a standard all-round set up?
What do y'all think.........?

Style definitely comes into play, but the map and game-type should be considerations as well. It's good to build some versatile classes so that you can do more than one job, or use various styles of play.

Some examples/things to think about:

A good overall "Assault" class.
A "speed" class for HQ mode.
A "stealth" class for S&D, or to combat a map with a lot of snipers.
A "sniper" or "long-range" class for covering/holding positions.
Classes with more SMG-style and added health for small maps...classes with more long-range weapons and stealth for the larger maps.
In a TDM game, you may want to switch between classes depending on how the battle is playing out.
Etc, etc.

Dont run for the bomb in sabotage at the beginning.

QFT, unless you want 15 simultaneous stun nades/noob tubes tearing you a new a**-hole.

Attaching a silencer to a weapon is usually preferable to a reflex, you might say this is personal preference, but when you attach a silencer it will suppress flash from the muzzle and therefore make it much easier to use irons.

Disagree. If you have a good class for planting (speed and/or stealth) do it, and head straight for the bomb site. If you're good enough...

The MP5 is an incredibly useful gun and should be seriously considered as a starter weapon for new players.

An attacking player should only stop moving if under heavy fire and behind cover, or if flashed/stunned.

On Bloc, if you sprint, you will almost never be hit going in front of the buildings (so don't camp the corners unless you have the right equipment).

Be as agressive as you possibly can. You will die a lot, especially if your skills are unhoned, but you will also take kills and rattle the enemy.

in sabotoge, hide the bomb so no one can get it = more points

The big, yellow "BOMB" icon showing where it is on-screen might make that a tad difficult.

[seoulspirit]

It's more of an exploit (stat-padding) than a tip...and will likely really annoy people who want to play SAB mode properly.

I totally agree with you :)

The hail of grenades will get you, regardless of you kit.

[seoulspirit]

^thats why you shoot grenades mid-air with your nade launcher or catch them all mid-air, throwback, kill all of the enemy team, win, plant the bomb, loss(as you planted on your own thing) :rofl:

i disagree, i always pick up the bomb at the beginning and run for the bomb site, i usually get it planted because it catches the other team offgurad.

[TheDesert_Fox]

Stealth won't help you one bit once you have the bomb. You've got a giant sign on you after all.
