    Similarly, coming from BF2 I thought the APCs would be amphibious vehicles. :laugh:

      Yeah I thought that too! So while playing the demo I blissfully sank the tank in 10 feet of water on Sidi. DOH!!!!

      But to this day I am still amazed at the amount of people who shoot machine guns at tanks....

        I like the "plinking" sound it makes. I also like it when my soldier says "Man down!" after the plinking sound.

          Or trying to knife the tanks vents :p They are few though...

          I thought for a long time that the rorsch were infantry only and wouldn't take out vehicles... :laugh:

            I kept pressing "9" all the time and kept wondering why I hit the ground instead of having a chute deploy.

            I kept proning all the time and couldn't understand why I couldn't seem to hit what was right in front of me.

            As mentioned above, I was confused by the medic hub and tried for hours to figure how to revive someone with it.

              I never understood how I got the Halo pin. lol. I thought all guns were created equal. doh! I thought the PAC hover tank stunk. I never knew how to get behind enemy lines without fighting through them. :) I thought support was the most powerful class. >.<

              And all the stupid things everyone else thought too! lol

                It doesn't help that the PAC APC looks like a boat. >_>

                  I thought shooting the ground AA guns at walkers/tanks would do damage. I still have people do that to me when I'm in a walker. If there's no-one around I'll let them hit me for a few seconds before taking them out.

                    It's actually a good distraction tactic. Takes one guy to sacrifice himself and another to sneak up to C4/Pillum him in the vents.

                      I thought the machine guns on tanks and apcs could hurt aircraft.

                        I'm pretty sure (please correct me if I'm wrong, or I'm still having a stupid BF thinking) that tank machine guns do damage aircraft. I get a hit indicator and I'm almost positive I've taken out gunships and transports this way. Not sure about APC's.

                          Lol, I love just standing there while he frantically shoots AA shells and Emp missles at me. I'll keep an eye out with chase camera, but I'll let him shoot until the gun overheats. :evil:

                          Tank machine guns hurt aircraft, though it's not much. Apc don't hurt them I think, the driver one anyway.

                            Whew, thanks! I'll keep lighting them up. Come to think of it, I've been shot up like that when I'm in a gunship. Should have remembered that! Sorry, back OT.

                            I used to think you could place APM/RDX and get a resupply, then go place more.

                              This is true. Tank machine guns will hurt aircraft, ACP's will not though (again at least the driver gun won't).

                              Which leads me to my next Dumb newbie mistake. Drum roll please...

                              After jumping in FAV's and ACP's and trying to shoot down Gunships and realizing that they can't, I figured that *none* of the machine guns in any of the vehicles would hurt a Gunship.

                              Imagine the look on my face the first time someone shot me down with with the Tank machine gun when I was in a Gunship...

                                Thought the NS boots were actually helpful.
