We were hacked. Several times over the past two weeks, in fact.
While all passwords are encrypted and salted, it's recommended that you change your password here when you can.
I usually hop out and run like hell before detonating - provided I have enough time of course. Love to do this when two or three APCs/Tanks are sitting around a supply crate trying to repair.
If you don't die it's not suicidal, and therefore no one should have a problem with it. And even if you die, it doesn't really matter.
There are some people that play the whole round like this: Load buggy with C4, get in. Drive to Tank, blow up buggy and tank, and die in the process. Rinse and repleat... THIS I consider very lame.
But I've seen people using this tactic to defend a flag, or as previously mentioned to "remove" base campers from the field.
The right timing, and not "overusing" this tactics will do the difference.
I wouldn't know how someone would want to complain about being "jihad-buggied" when the opponent didn't die in the process of blowing him up.
I think the C4 buggy is a valid tactic. I don't play Specop very often, but I find it a lot of fun.
I laugh at tankwhores who give me crap after I blow them up. And it doesn't matter how you got blown to pieces. If you were sitting in a tank you got cowned by infantry. Even if he was driving in a car loaded with C4 it means you as a tank driver were sleeping and therefore let him pass by. You deserve to die.
I also like to jump out in the nick of time and blow them to s#!t and live. I got a M1 and LAV combo like 4 times in a row lol, they didnt learn to stay a little further away from each other untill after that lol.:p
I *think* the server was called Don'tfeedtheadmin or something.
Lets just make the BF2 Geneva conventions
That is ingenius! :laugh:
What's funny is all the posts about people wishing this or that was more realistic, well car bombs are realistic. Well maybe not as USMC, SEAL, SAS, or Spetsnaz(sp?).
1) People are whingeing about the 'reality of a game' - fine, whatever does it for you.
2) These same people are whingeing about using explosive-packed vehicles as a weapon in a modern warfare simulator, and using explosive traps to destroy tanks.
Im sure I am not alone in detectinga teeny bit of hypocrisy in this argument... do you ever read the news? wonder why the Yank grunts are so trigger happy on the road to the airport in Baghdad?
Suicide carbombings are one of the most realistic aspects of your cherished "modern warfare simulator", so it really needs to stay in IMO.
Seems like the point of this topic was lost early on...
I don't think anyone is saying that the Jihad Jeep isn't a valid tactic or, heck, that "Bunnies" and "Dolphins" running around is unacceptable to everyone. It's just unacceptable to the people who made the server.
Just as I Ban all "Dolphins" and "Bunnies" the second I see them, without warning, without remorse. Some people feel the same way about the Jihand Jeep. I feel that "Hoppers" and "Air-Floppers" ruin the gameplay experience. So, I remove them. Admins on other servers feel as if the suicide bombing Jeeps ruin their good times, so, they remove them. Etc. Etc.
You people act as if they DIDN'T pay for the servers, and as if you have a say in their ruleset. Heck, come to think of it, you do have a voice in the form of your choice to play there or not. If ya' don't like the server rules, leave. There are so few servers than Ban suicide bombers that I doubt you will have a hard time finding another place to play.
Furthermore. If ya' keep running into the same problem, you're always more than welcomed to shell out the cash for your own ranked server. Until you decide to take that route, you have NO SAY in what someone else does with their server (As long as it doesn't Involve cheating or some sort, or extreme stat padding of some sort).
...give it a rest people. This argument had no merit from the get go. Yes Jihad Jeeps get banned on some servers because "YES" some servers don't like them! It's as simple as that.

Nailed everything i was trying to get across last night to a couple people in this thread, but was unable to accomplish the task. Excellent post..:)
If you had any skill you could take a tank out with the Anti-tank class or the Special forces class without blowing yourself up... Therefore, saving 10 tickets as noted in your post..
The history of Jihad bombing, like those done by these terrorists, involves the master mind of the plan, and then some dumbass kid whom the master mind talks into blowing himself up with a car bomb. As the master mind is too smart to kill himself for his own cause... Anyone can strap a bomb to their ass and get a kill. The key to war is staying alive..
Wrong...the key to war is always and always has been....KILL MORE OF THEM....... everything else is secondary(including staying alive). Plus when i am in a tank i average about 15 kills for my one death and any average tanker will get around that so being able to take out a tank with a mere jeep....which can be killed by one shot...is a valuable tool in the arsonal ////////and let me add this ad-libbed qoute
The history of /"WAR", like those done by "Armies/Nations etc...", involves the /"Politicians" of the plan, and then some dumbass kid/"Soldiers" whom the /"Politicians/President/Dictator" talks into /"Die for his cause/Country" with a /"Gun/Tank/Plane...Etc..etc. As the /"Politicians/President/Dictator" is too smart to /"fight/die" himself for his own cause... Anyone can /"shoot a gun/fire a torpedoeo/push the red nuclear missle fire button" and get a kill. The key to war is staying alive..[/QUOTE]

You're being sarcastic right?
Granted. Casualities do occur. Yet, the goal of war is to kill as many of the OpFor as possible while losing NONE of your own infantry base. War is performed to kill off enough of the enemy so that they see following your commands is more productive than fighting to the death; or don't have an option in the matter because they are all dead.
I think that this shows some of the issues with the actual people playing the game rather than the game itself.
I notice too many people keep complaining that a certain vehicle or class is overpowered etc. when it really just showing their skill levels. Balanced players are the ones who win out the most in BF2. Thats how it should be. The way its going some vocal minority of people want to ruin the game. Might as well remove killing and everything with the logic some of you use.
Any tank whore who charges foward to try to get more kills before the rest of the team deserves to get jihaded by buggies/ATVs, they bitch and cry about it but if they stuck with their infantryman like they're supposed to someone on their team with AT or noob tube could take out the jihadi before he gets to the tank. You gotta constantly evaluate the situation and make decisions before you hold your W key and head straight for enemy flags cuz you just might get your ass blown to bits.
