No, it's unlimited and takes 25 seconds to reload.

Ah thank you, it makes sense now!

With as easy as it is to kill I can't see that happening even if the UAV pilot was completely hidden from sight.

It was done because otherwise the same people that cried about the jets in BF2 would be bitching up a storm about UAV whores..........the are making sure that the UAV never becomes a game wining factor in conquest.

Can the UAV's only shoot one rocket?

in rush they are very OP'd because you can stay far back with voptics which means you can just missile away whole rounds.
on conquest, they're only good for getting in, firing a quick missile and leaving.

Yeah, UAVs are death traps. Worst of all is they don't even scan the area for the team. And I'll try spotting enemies and it will work about 10% of the time. So they're really just vehicle killers, and not very effective at that since it takes too long to load rockets. I'll only use one if our team is dominating and we have them pinned at their uncap.

try using the first vehicle upgrade which adds the UAV sensor to vehicles. Fly over the enemies and watch the orange triangles appear on the map. It's awesome. Makes it much easier for your team to advance on rush. You wont get any spot assists but your team will be thanking you.

Another good one to use is the optics upgrade. You can zoom in to see across most of the map. This will make manual spotting 10X easier and you can keep the UAV at a safe distance while still being useful.

if i see a uav i shoot it for +100. But yeah it's a death trap in conquest unless you got a buddy to guard you. I have found that you dont have to face the terminal directly to fly the uav so if i do use i try to put the console between me and the possible snipers.

Re: Who was the genius that thought of UAV placement in Conquest?

I think UAV placements should only belong to bases or safe spawns, but again, which one?

Two UAVs duke it out in the air? LOL. Dogfight on an RC scale.

It's easier to shoot the other guy on the ground looking at the remote, than shooting down his RC roflcopter.

Oops, sorry, didn't realise someone had already addressed this gripe. Guess I shoulda checked the second page.

Not worth using on Conquest IMO. Maybe a few kills, then get off of the terminal because all it takes is for one guy deciding he will hunt you down for killing him, and he knows where you are at.
