OK, I just started playing BF2 this weekend - my first BF game. Im not a total noob at FPS though, having played lots of Quake3 and Q3: Urban Terror before. However, this is the first fps i have played with vehicles and terrain fighting (rather than CQB style fights). I only play the 64 player maps, as big battles seem to be the point of BF2.
What i need to understand is....tactically, what is the most useful thing to do for your team as a new player? Because of Q3, I can do the infantry stuff at close quarters, but not the vehicles. what i dont get is whether to capture a good base (e.g. one with AA defense) and then defend it for most of the battle, or to keep attacking at bases held by the enemy.
It seems that whenever one side has nearly all the bases, they lose lots of the rear bases that arent manned....but if you defend, you lose too many tickets. Any tips?
a few other quick questions:
Is there a way to make the crouch button a toggle rather than hold? sometimes if you are crouching behind something it can get really annoying holding it down.
If the base you selected to spawn at gets lost, its really annoying that you just *don't respawn*. Is there a way around this?
finally, does anyone know of a good all-karkand server in the UK/Europe? Its my favourite map by far (the most like a Q3:UrT map i suppose, because of the close fighting).
