    The BEST strategy guide ever

    Since people don't seem to understand the concept of this game. I thought i'd post a quick guide.

    What you should do:
    1. Tag flags
    2. If it's an Assault map like Karkand, TAG FLAGS, unless you're the defenders then PROTECT FLAGS.
    3. If it's a Double Assault map, TAG FLAGS.
    4. If a flag is heavily defended and there are still other flags to take, don't keep dying trying to capture it, attack a different one since chances are no one is defending it.

    What NOT to do:
    1. Base camp with armor unless you're commander and are on the hunt for flankers.
    2. Spend the game flying around on a less than 32-player server.
    3. Spawn camp an uncappable base when there are still flags left. Generally, it's just a waste of time unless you're on a mission to destroy assets or steal key vehicles.
    4. Keep spawning as support, medic, assault, sniper when armor is raping your team over and over.

    With these basic tips, you will become a better player and actually be an asset to your team. I'm sure most people will laugh at this guide but I've seen too many players act as nothing other than cannon fodder and seem to not grasp the simple concepts of the game. The more flags you have, the better you can unbalance the enemy which increases your chances of winning, and controlling all flags is like you're getting free kills, unless the enemy doesn't have an uncappable base, in which case you're getting a free win.

      How about dont stack the airfields waiting for helo/jet?

        Nevertheless they are still some bonus point that can be collected...
        So please keep attacking my tank with your pistol...

          Yeh good advice, A good tip is to go into a real empty server and just run around a 64 player map in a jeep capping flags!!

                  More things to do:
                  5. Join a freakin' squad already!
                  6. Pay attention to what kits your squad mates have and choose one that will help.
                  7. Apply for commander if noone else is. Even if you are not completely dedicated to commanding, a UAV/Supply crate once in a while is better than nothing.
                  8. Learn how to fly on an EMPTY server.
                  9. Learn how to change camera angles if you are going to drive/fly.
                  10. LEARN TO USE TV MISSLES IF YOU ARE THE GUNNER IN A HELI! (can you tell I'm sick of dying to AA because my gunner wanted to chain gun it to death?)

                  I could go on but I have work to do. Maybe later.

                    Thank you! Finally! People really need to learn to use the TV guided missles BEFORE they just decide to hop in the gunner's seat. Or at least talk to the pilot over VOIP. Then maybe they could learn.

                      Yeah, alot of those same people need to take a good look at #9 too. The FIRST thing you should do when you jump in a chopper is hit your 'C' key (or whatever you have set to switch cameras). I hate it when I hover waiting for the gunner to open up on infantry and he does nothing because he doesn't see them because he is still in cockpit view. I just wish that the camera didn't default back to cockpit view after switching out of the TV missle screen.

                        Once I randomly sniped at a helo and it blew up right when I hit it so I got 2 kills so it actually can pay off to shoot at helos and tanks with your pistol. (Just not very often)

                          forgetting the most annoying thing... PUNISHING FOR ACCIDENTS! Thats what really grinds my gears. Especially when an accidental AA tk happens, its not my fault the AA didnt hit the enemy..

                            Nah the worst TK punish is when some fraggle drives in to your tank even though he could see it a mile off and then blows himself up and punishes you for it.

                            I've gained 3 teamkills simply for jumping out of a flaming black hawk shortly before it exploded! What's that about?
