    Tactics


    After playing several games of conquest this morning, it occurs to me that most players have no grasp of tactics. For instance, people don't seem to understand that if they are playing as infantry, they should support their teammates that are using armor,
    that is, the various tanks.

    Tanks are frequently overwhelmed by foot soldiers attacking en mass. But rarely does anyone take advantage of that to run up a kill streak, instead running away from the tank, leaving it to be destroyed, or worse yet, abandoned to the enemy. One should take
    advantage of this bait that draws the enemy like flies.

    Another point is that when you're trying to capture a flag that has a bunker as part of the objective, if you lock the doors and leave them locked, the enemy will have a much harder time accessing you and that beloved gun turret.

    And why not spawn on your squad, rather than just keep trying to take that hard objective where the much sought-after sentry kit lives, only to be greeted by two squads just waiting for you.

    Finally, why not PTFO? You may actually win a few games, while preserving your precious KDR. After all, winning is a lot more rewarding than just running up your kill count.

    :)

    So true. Frustrating to see everyone perked up in one area going for kills and leaving objectives to fall to the enemy

    What I try to do is use my controller to scroll through the squad mates and look to see where they are and spawn with the largest group. But that doesn't always work (sometimes I can't scroll through the squad list and other times, the squad is in the middle
    of being squashed by a superior force). And yes, there should be a medal/ribbon for throwing supplies and medkits for your team. Personally, I throw that stuff around like party favors, and like yourself, would like some recognition for it.

    I agree, a lot of players either have no thumbs or are just a bunch of Helen Keller's. Another piece of advise when it comes to playing solo, is to play a supportive role. Either medic or support. I most play the scout class, but I sure don't site at the
    edge of the map. Also when it comes to the scout class player need to use their spot flares more often, even if they are kind of sitting back the need to spot more for the team instead for themselves. I could go on all day about what players should do. Pay
    attention to the chat screen, and in the settings turn the language to their own language. But unfortunately players are clueless.

    I seldom run tac mask. It just doesnt fit in my 10 points.

    The tac nades do mess me up ( flashes particularly), but the points I get for engineer and emps outweigh the benefits of tac mask.

    Yeah,Thing is i run Toughness on all classes and Tac Mask and i also like FJ on obj classes.I think it would be cool if tacticals were slightly less devastating so Tac Mask was'nt a necessity.

    I find myself getting lost and ending up on my own a lot in the game, I would much rather help my squad and get far more victories. Much more enjoyable playing as a team. Any tips to track your squad mates and see where they are in play, as I would also
    like to gain a medal in the supportive tasks?

    I agree with you.

    On the other side of the coin I'm sure there are those driving the tanks who don't wait for infantry support or other class to support them.
    And I'm sure you're right about that. I just find it frustrating when I'm in a tank (either driving it or as a passenger) and see my teammates all around, but they aren't doing anything to keep the enemy away from the tank. My personal opinion as to why
    this happens is that people don't feel the tank is much of a support to the infantry and don't see any benefit to keeping them alive.
