    Shipment tricks

    All of this is meant for FFA games with more than 20 players.

    This is supposed to be a fun map I guess, but many people seem to cry when it comes up. When I see them play, I know why :p
    Here are some hints to make the map more successful and enjoyable for you. There is a way to spawn kill better than other players.

    Your setup:

    Any gun that's absolutely leathal at short range, I suggest a MG
    3x Frag grenades
    Martyrdom

    Tactics:

    When the map starts, throw frag grenades all over the place. You will die soon enough.
    After you respawn, TAKE A STEP BACK. Most people run forward and I don't know why. Someone will spawn right behind you and you're dead.
    You want to stand behind them instead and kill them one after the other as they spawn.
    Of course if another player has already taken your place behind the spawn, kill them first
    Do NOT move away from the spawn point, ever. You will die anyway. If you die near the spawn point, Martyrdom will kill at least one or two other players. In fact you can get a positive kill/death ratio with doing nothing.

    This play style should get you a few air strikes. Killing 20 people with one air strike is the best laugh ever :laugh:
    Soon as you send the air strike, make sure that you die. This will allow you to immediately get another air strike after you respawn, with the kills of the first air strike.
    The only thing that's better than killing 20 people with an airstrike is doing it twice

    As you see, there are quite a few things that you can do wrong on this map. Have fun

      I love this map. It's quite alot of fun and just caotic.

      I agree with m_d's advice. Also; in the FF-off servers I just sporatically fire at anything that moves from the time I spawn till the time I die. It makes for a fun evening full of laughter.

          I don't agree with that, you will die many times.

          I got a class called "SAS Stealth" and this is what it is.

          P90+Silencer+Digi camo
          Bandolier
          UAV Jammer
          Dead silence

          It owns shipment, check this out.





          It's easy to live through a whole round of shipment, when you spawn just go camp a container. Thats what I did, and look at the result, I always take that container though, none other as you'll just get shot or killed by a stray nade.

          Anyways I don't agree with running out and nade spamming, I shot three, got UAV, used that to know when to get out of container to get guys going around a corner. Then I get an airstrike, and I ask for a UAV as you can see in the pics above, and get a good truck load of kills. Then with that you got the heli, so combined with your own weapon you can own this map.

              People actually play this map!? As soon as I played it, I removed it from my server's map rotation. It's such a small map that 24 players just isn't good for it. I also took out that ship map because it's the same way.

                But dont use the same tactics.. heres mine:

                Setup
                High Clip Size and RoF Weapon (P90)
                3x Frags
                Stopping Power
                Steady Aim

                Tactics
                When you spawn, throw 1 frag towards each of the other corners of the map, you should net a few kills but if you think tactical.. look at where your guys are spawning and dont throw a frag to that corner. Move over to another corner of the map either by using hollow crates or running down the path spraying at the enemies as you do-so, use cover to reload and watch for spawning guys. When wanting to move again, use the middle part of the map to move diagonally across, come out spraying at the enemies. By now you should of died and netted about 5 kills, rinse and repeat.

                    And no, I didn't just shoot through the crates (i used a s**t-load of airstrikes and choppers though)

                      Martydom is a must on that map.

                            I prefer deep impact. There are a few spawn locations behind containers, just aim at the container and fire away. If you get a hit indicator you know you're on the right spot and keep firing there. It's a bit lame to spawncamp, but hey, that's what this map is all about really :p

                              The best tactic I have for that map is press escape and leave the server after loading. I just don't find it fun, no matter how good or bad I do.
