I've been known to get so frustrated with Supply guys that I TK the useless individual, pick up his kit, throw a supply box on his dead body and the swap kits back.SlightlySto0pid wrote:

The engineer has 1 major flaw when compared to the support guy or the medic. The engineer has to be standing next to and facing the object he is repairing. This can leave you very open to fire. The others can just lob boxes on the floor, run away and still earn points. This is why the engineer should get 2 points for a repair and be able to get them quicker in some way.
Pilum all day long!
I did all 8 engineer/AT unlocks first and then moved on to the sniper. The last unlock was RDX.
I had the Pilum early. Now everyone seems to have it. I miss the old days of Pilum surprise.

I occasionally like to annoy the padders by destroying their ammo boxes. They put it down, I shoot it. After a few repeats they often team kill me. I punish. Padder gets more annoyed.
To be honest though, if people want to pad the that is their own loss. Why spend £30+ on a game and then spend hours doing the same dull thing over and over? Sure you get the points but you take away the fun part of getting those points. No-one is impressed. Pointless.

Ground defence is great against just about anything. I use it in combination with a Pilum. Fire one then the other. Seeing as many vehicles are slightly damaged by the time they get to you this will get you plenty of kills.
I also recommend putting a single motion mine at each entrance to the flag/silo you are defending. A single one will do enough damage that the Pilum and Ground Defence combination will finish off most targets.

In defence of the noobs, it took me a few deaths to realise how big the blast radius was with the det-packs. I first though that standing a little out of the way was good enough. No it wasn't. Never punish for that though.
The best Titan noob thing I have seen was a player in his own Titan trying to destroy a console. Not only did he not realise that he was in his own Titan, he didn't notice the blue icons. He then proceeded to complain about the games bugs and glitches. I left him a couple of minutes before informing him of his mistake.

Has anyone else had a problem with the SAAW 86 when trying to lock on to targets? Sometimes it just doesn't.
Yes, its OK but you'll find yourself missing the Pilum in more situations than missing the AA. I recommend it when there is a lot of air traffic. I have a few kills defending silos. In short, its a good silo/flag defnece weapon.BabySpinach wrote:
I am about to unlock the Anti Air gun for the engineer.. Is that any good?
I know most of the good places to hit vehicles. A few minutes on an empty server will do that for you.
My favorite tactic is my buggy and Pilum combo. I can take on and kill any tank (or 2) like this. I just get me a buggy and charge around the map armed with my Pilum. The minute I see a tank I boost to a position behind it, bail from the buggy and hit the tank in the rear.
I also find that camping in a well covered spot facing an area where enemy armour is heading is a good tactic especially if used with the vehicle tracking device. I just wait until an unsespecting tank is on its way to the flag/silo and then shoot it in the rear.
My best vehicle kill streak on my own as engineer was 2 tanks, an apc, a buggy and a walker. All withing a minute while defending a silo. The first tank was Pilumed, the second hit a couple of motion mines, the walker hit a motion mine and was then Pilumed. Finally the jeep arrived and also got Pilumed.

If you get everyones favorite message - Your connection to the server has been lost. Do you lose all the points and awards for that round? I think the server crashed because I could not find it after.
I really hope not because I just lost connection when I had over 90 points, 35+ kills, single figure deaths, a few pins and a ribbon. I really will not be happy!!! What makes it worse is that I had the ribbon in a previous round and guess what... The thing lost connection.
So angry!!!
For all those who will say, "search is your friend", its not. I couldn't find nowt quickly enough. This is easier.

I've noticed a massive increase in players with the Pilum. It was my first weapon unlock and I was enjoying being one of the few with it. Brilliant gun if used properly. I won't give away any of my tactics though.
Looking at the leaderboard there are already a few players flying high. The game is not a month old yet!
The high point awards need to be more skill focused. As it is most badges are based on time played. For example, the silver/veteran badges get you 500 points but only need 15 hours play and 20 kills IAR. Thats easy if you can afford the time but doesn't mean you are skilled. How about 15 hours played but 20 kills with only 5 deaths or something similar to make it harder.

Sorry if this has already been covered. Tried searching with no joy.
Anyway. Who runs the game with all graphics on HIGH? If you do, have you noticed that you always get huge amounts of dust and dirt kick up when your bullets hit the ground? It might be the same on lower settings too, I have not tested. I have found this to make targeting infantry very tough because if I miss with the first few shots I then cannot see my target until the dust clears. This is a real problem for me in a Mech.
I ask this question because I have seen plenty of Mech drivers hitting targets with ease as if they dont have this problem. Would lowering my graphics setting actually benefit me?

I wonder if my local Tescos has it on the shelves yet. Im tempted to drive over and take a look. I know I will be disappointed though.... or will I. Hmm.... Why did I read this thread!!
Core 2 Duo E6600, 2GB DDR2, X1900 GT. Not a problem anytime anywhere.
Hey, I used to run BF2 on a AMD 2700, 1GB DDR, ATI 9500 Pro. This is MY time to brag!

The lag on the Titan seems to be related to 2 things. First, it only happened to me on a full 48 player round and not when in a 16 player round. Secondly, when it was moving.
As someone above said, "a big object and move it exactly the same way 48 times". This is the problem.
I am running the game on a new PC with a Core 2 E6600, 2GB RAM, ATI X1900 GT. It runs HL2, BF2 and 2142 (accept in moving Titans full of people) at 100+ FPS. My internet connection is a mere 512 down 256 up and so although the ping was fine, the game lags in Titans.
There is your reason. Don't fuss with graphics settings, I doubt very much that they are to blame.

I am a little disappointed with the rockets. I can understand the need to tone them down from the BF2 chopper rockets but this is just silly. They are pretty much useless.
Im about 2300 points from Sergeant Major. Im actually quite bored of the game at this point. However, I'm building a new and much better PC soon. Given that I have been playing with an AMD 2700, 1Gb RAM and a ATI 9500 Pro for the last year or so I think my interest in the game will return when I see it with nice graphics.
I can post screenshot when I get home but I have managed to get both F-35s, both BlackHawks and the attack chopper under there. Its easy with anything that hovers. The J-10 is a fair bit harder and just comes down to repeat attempts. Basically you need to fly in at just over stall speed and sort of 'dump' it in there.
I remember the first time I thought I'd ram a soldier who was parachuting down.
Either the stats server or this is something left from BF2S's April fools joke.
I like the sequence stunts. Most stunt vids have short clips of single passes under and around things, you manage to string some together. Nice.

Not seen that one. Funniest thing I've seen in ages.
Wake is so dull for both teams. J-10s rape while everyone gets bored/dies. If you're a J-10 lover then you love Wake. The only time this is different is if you have a good team that play as a team. Of course it is worse for USMC. We all know this.
Karkand is a great map but.... THERE IS MORE TO LIFE/BF2 THAN KARKAND!!!!! I am bored of it.
Something positive... Dalian Plant and Dragon Valley rock. Good for everyone.
To be honest I like all maps. Each one is a different challenge and thats one thing that puts BF2 above all other FPS games. Its variety.

Not that impressed with your chopper skills to be honest. I will say that your TV missile skills are superb but going solo is not the best use of the chopper.slicknic wrote:
tell em to watch my tutorial =x.. oh and the next one comin out..
I don't consider myself the worlds best chopper pilot but I'd like to think I'm good. What I see you doing is wasting the rockets. In a lot of the situations seen in your video I would have lined you up for the TV kill and then taken another target myself with the rockets. Look at the times when you missed the Blackhawk; I would have taken it out after seeing you miss. So between us we would get more kills and help the team further.
Please don't get me wrong, I am trying to make a constructive critisism. You are very good with the TV missile but if you went gunner with a good chopper pilot you'd be at least 50% more leathal.
All I can say is that we all started somewhere. If I am gunner in a chopper and the pilot is no good and crashes, I will consider leaving the chopper to try something else. Its not my chopper, I am not a chopper whore and the pilot was only trying to learn. Please remember that its just a game.
Also, I have encountered many self confessed "elite" pilots who insist on flying. Many of these are really not very good themselves. I'm not the best chopper pilot in the world, far from it, but I am good enough to know who is good and who is not. If I am honest, a player who is trying to learn is far less annoying than a so called super pilot who hogs the chopper but is not actually any use to anyone.

This gives me an idea for a possible solution to the over powered jets problem. Why don't they make the repair station destructable like the commander assets? This would give Spec-Ops another important job. If the repair station is also responsible for re-arming jets it would work even better.
Maybe he meant, 'North Americon Centrol Kwality Controll'.
Giving an unproven and possibly false date as to when 1.4 is released is an offence punishable by prolonged detention in a large mound of dog feasies.

Read about what they are releasing. Very worrying that this sort of thing is available. Look out for these.
Introducing Teamhack:
With the recent team member addition of P47R!CK (famous CS Cheat coder) We could only expect some great new hacks, and Teamhack is no exception. Teamhack fools the server into thinking you are on the enemy team as you play. This means that you can enter enemy veichles with the enemy inside, Revive enemy teammates and kill them again (force statpad, heh) You can use commander hack with team hack, and use the enemys assets on themselves. Also, both teams will always see you as a friendly with teamhack on, which means nobody will fire at you. You can also spawn on enemy spawnpoints. And the best part about this is that enemy AA's and missles wont be able to lock onto you anymore. Check out the <twats> homepage for videos.
BF2142 News:
We have been hard at work for the new creation from EA Games, BF2142! We are proud to say we are the first site there is that has a available BF2142 hack right NOW, not some empty promise of having it ready in a few days. <Twats> is the only site capable of developing this hack with all the features of our famous BF2 Hack.
We are proud to release the first BF2142 Hack on the market. It has Aimbot, Chamz, Full ESP, No Fog, No Sky, Crosshairs, Minimap, Asset and enemy asset ESP and much more. This is now available to all VIPs, and is fully functional with the beta.

I can land upside-down. Honest.
On a very slightly more serious note; if I see a few players waiting for the jet, all poised for a TK fest, I have been known to land the jet on a nearby mountain top and leave it there. They get so annoyed with having to wait for it to blow up 'naturally' before it respawns.
My favorite moment of fun with some pathetic little plane addicts was on Dalian Plant. As usual they all wanted the J-10 but this time I had it. Being slightly drunk at the time I thought it would be amusing to taxi up the runway instead of taking off. I got myself about half way down the strip and then jumped out. As I expected, 2 players ran toward it, as they arrived I hopped back in and carried on. I actually made it a fair distance down the valley out the base before I got stuck and abandoned it. The funny thing was that one of the players was still chasing (now in a buggy). He then jumped in the jet but failed miserably in his efforts to retrieve it.
I got called a "noob".

Not seen a flag go super quick before unless there is a full squad capping it together. However, I've been trying to cap one before with another player and the thing took ages. There was a UAV above us too so I knew there was no-one else there. Odd, but I just think its a glitch or something.
Doing it in a tank, now that would be cool.

Mine is 5.44% cause I have played sniper the most and I hardly ever get in a attack chopper or a plane, but my KDR for most rounds is now way over what everybody with more points gets. I finnaly broke even on my KDR after a shity start. I am still not great, but I was down over a thousand deaths over kills and I have had a steady increase in most of my stats for the last six months.

Just wondered how often people finish in the top 3. In other words; what percentage of your total games played earns you a gold, silver or bronze medal?
Mine is 22.3%.
If you don't know, here is how to work it out:
Gold medals + Silver medals + Bronze medals = Total medals (322 for me)
Then...
Rounds won + Rounds lost = Total rounds played (1444 for me)
Then...
100 x Total medals (322) divided by Total rounds played (1444) = Your percentage rate (22.3%).
Sorry for the complexity.
