now that im there, i find myself getting somewhere around a dozen kills per round with the sniper.. now that im not concerned with getting stats up to an acceptable level where i actually have a shot at being a commander in a decent server, i can focus on shit like sniping.. mm.. sniping.
just wish i didnt waste my unlock on the assault unlock. that thing blows.

yep, nothing better than loading up your teammates hummer with c4 and letting them do the work..Uncle Slappy said:ahem
I was the exact same way, i still find myself charging in to head on fights though, force of habit i suppose.aScotiA said:Being almost solely a tribes player for the past 6 years, it took me a while to realize that bf2 is a totally different type of game. Tribes is great because if you're good enough, you can pretty much approach anyone and win just about every time unless they get a lucky shot or if you fuck up somehow. It was fun to just repeatedly smack down some people, and only occasionally have someone that was a challenge. BF2 you gotta stalk and ambush people, use UAV to locate etc. It took me a couple weeks to put it all together and not get owned so much. Trying to get my K:d ratio above 1:1 now that I understand better how to play
Playing commander is a great way to do that, I usually get at least 15 kills and no more than a couple deaths. BTW, how the HELL are people able to be active on the field as well as be commander, I can never leave the commander screen when I play it because there's always shit you can be doing to help the team. Comes with experience I 'spose

I tried doing the commander role, while actively going out and helping the squads, it can be quite the bitch. I tended to sit back quite a ways, activate the UAV, then go in. Id usually end up defending the CP instead of going on the offensive the rest of the map. those people who are flying around in jets or helis and still being a decent commander is pretty crazy.
Austforbeer said:If you're flying a heli or a jet when you're commander you're not a good commander.
If you want to be good you should be giving squads orders and developing a strategy not just droping supplies and using Art. The most active I'll try to be when commander is being near a forward base and dropping med packs.
edit: Granted on a pub alot of people don't listen to order but when they do you will bitchown.
no shit.. i consider it an accomplishment getting a helo 5 ft off the ground without crashing. when it comes to flying, the only thing i'm good at is skydiving.RoyaleWithCheese said:indeed, but i have seen commanders in jets reply to requests, they just arent doing much else in the way of commanding, IMO thats pretty impressive, i can hardly stay alive in one of those damned things, let alone do any form of commanding as well.
