    Air strip noob!!11!!

    Well since Ive gotten my second unlock I picked up the G36C, that way I have a balance. PKM for city/Urban maps and Spec Ops for all other.

    I love bing able to some what have an effective "snipe" with the weapon, and it has good dmg if CQC happens, plus nothings sweeter then the sneak up to the tank pop some C4 on it and "BOOM!!".

    But as of late Ive been having tons of fun going to the enemy air strip and
    C4ing there Jets/Helis, then creeping up to a hill or behind a bush and watign for them to take off and blowing them up. Heck its even fun picking them off when they respawn and wait for the plane/heli to respawn. Hilarious when you let them fly aroudn for a minute or 2, or even C4ing the pad and wating for them to come back for repairs, that way you dont have to use as much C4..one does the job real nice on a smoking heli:laugh: When its going really good I even call for a supply drop so I have endless amounts of C4.

    But the other night after blowing up 2 fully loaded BH's and the same pilot 4 times I started to get called a "Air Strip camping noob"..I was like "WTF??!!"
    Ill admit 4 times they caught on, killed me twice and I came back, other 2 times I killed them and moved my location. They started giving me crap like "I dont know how some one with the rank corpral can play like this"
    My responce was "I picked the Anti-Aircraft class" then I explained in rock, paper, sciccors there jets were boulders...so i was evening things out.
    The coolest thing, to me, that got them really mad was when I was out of C4 and had no supplys...so i picked out a fellen assualt guys gun I had previously sniped and then watied for the BH to fill up..I then ran up and noob toobed it right indie the open door:laugh: hilarious watchign the pilot go up and down thinking "WTF is going on!!!" ..they all died to my noob toob and he crashed.

    Spec Ops..the Anti-Aircraft class!!!

    Sounds like a good way to get the explosives ordinance badge....

    and def sounds like a good idea when the other team has wicked good pilots...

      Don't worry, this will be happening more offen in the 1.03 patch when you'll actually get points for destroying enemy assets!

      ALL MAIN BASES WILL BE CAMPED.

      Now that we understand that, live with it.

      I understand that some people label you "Air Strip camping noob," but really you are helping your team by denying the enemy proper use of their air vehicles. It sucks being on the receiving end, but really you're helping - don't listen to them.

      Just becareful, on some servers this type of activity will get you banned by immature admins.

      Take care soldier!

        It really is a good tactic when the other team has good fighter/bomber pilots.... and of course they are going to complain you finally took away their invincibility....

        You are helping your team probably more than you know....Im so gonna try this :)

          I can imagine the frustration, lol!
          But all it takes is for their commander to either scan&spot you, or place a UAV on the strip. So there's no reason for them to start abusing you, as they don't have the intelligence to hunt you down - atleast in my opinion.

              I don't believe in spawn-killing at an uncappable (unless they spot me), but "sabotaging" the enemies air assets is a perfectly acceptable--even commendable--tactic.

                Good, so that also means we'll have some players hanging back and doing base/flag defense. Sounds great to me :)

                  I like the tactics, if fact I did a lot yesterday, on gulf of oman, hide waited for planes to respawn, guys get in, and I quickly rush put c4 on back, wait till they take off and boom. Did the same with the attack heli, waited till twos guys were in it then planted c4.

                  Well done mate and keep up the good work, I found it helped my team hugely, if the attack heli did get off the groud it spent all its time looking for me, and enemy planes became thin on the ground. I really helps your team, but being on the recieving end would suck, but then I usually check there is no c4 about and
                  go to 3rd person view when about to take off.

                    this is a good tactic, nice one. I'm always fed up of bombers killing me whenever i spawn, so i would be very thankful for this.

                    Try putting mines, less effective maybe but they can explode individually, as aposed to destroying all the c4 at once.

                      I think that's a great strategy. I love to hear about BH's getting blown up. I've tried myself it couple of times. If you put an AT mine on the helipad will the helo blow up when it lands on it?

                        I read this last week in a similar thread about camping the BlackHawk.

                        So this weekend at Mastur City<sp?> I go up to wear the BH landing pad, i climb the ladder to the roof, wow!!! what did i see.. 6 guys all jumping and waiting for the BH (the didnt notice my team just capped the spawn point down below)

                        I start throwing nades and before you can say "duck for cover" im up 12 points!!!

                        :cry: Dont worry about being called a "wh0re" "n00b" or "c4mp3r"
                        :evil: All is Fair in Love and War:evil:
                        course.. im the kinda guy that WAITS for the medic to revive someone before i chalk up 4 more points.

                            I love running C4 buggies into planes that are taking off.

                            You just have to imagine the pilot being like "What a moron...I'll just fly around and bomb him." as they are sure they'll clear you or you'll move, and then BAM! You bail and C4'em their precious plane. :laugh:

                              If the other team has wicked good pilots, you won't get a chance to put c4 on them, cuz the jets probably won't get shot down
