Airstrikes in Vacant

[m_d]

What do you do with airstrikes in Vacant when the enemy team is camping inside the building (the two big rooms)?
There's one place in the middle that is vulnerable, because there's no roof, but the enemies hardly ever come out that far. Are there any good places to put the air strikes?

I start to think that it's best to just go for 2 more kills to get the chopper, because airstrikes are so fail in that situation.

I just wait for the spawns to switch and then use the airstrike.. that is if I don't get a heli until then.

That's what I've been doing, but it can take very long or not happen at all, so I'm looking for better solutions.

If I get a UAV on people sitting by the rear windows (office space), I can be able to get a few kills from there. Theres also a few openings in the roof at few spots in the warehouse. If the UAV shows I cant get any kills, Im going to reserve it.

Check where your team is. If they are just camping them and not pushing into the enemy spawn-- it wont change so go for the two extra kills. If they are pushing through, the spawns will change soon and most of the time it is outside-- use it then.

You can try close to the windows, some people like to sit at the back pillar by the right hand side entrance, a well placed airstrike will sometimes take that guy out.

Throw down the air strike toward the center, its the most vulnerable in the building. It may not get anyone, but it may shake up their defenses and you can get the heli later on and not lose your air strike.

I tend to get into position, throw down the air strike and while its falling, attack, it throws off the defenders because they are usually paranoid and look at the ceiling.

I try to get my guys moving to the other side of the map so that the enemy will start spawning outside again.

Yeah man you have to save the airstrike for when they switch the spawn to the empty crates outside.

[CptainCrunch]

The problem with saving it is if you kill two more people, then its gone. If you have the team camping in there, it makes a great distraction for you or your team to go in and clean them out.

Now of course, if you die after you get the airstrike, then you should go ahead and save it if you have no plans on counter-attacking.

So I guess it depends on your situation, you will need to think it over and whats going on.

A good tactic would probobly use the airstrike at the open part or the roof, that should distract and disorentate them, then move in for the kill.

[the-masterlord]

Wait until you push them outside. But what you could also do is wait even longer, vacant aint exactly the best map for airstrikes, so as far as i know (correct me if im wrong) airstrikes go to the next round if you dont use them.

I just waste the Airstrike and hope for the best.

To me it's just 10 free points.
