I'm one that plays for the "realism" factor. Yeah, I know it's a game, and my stats suck because of it, but I have more fun than just running and gunning and suicide missions, etc.
I actually TRY to live as long as possible, and not just think "Hey, I can kill myself and another guy, then respawn...and do it again!"
Tank? Well I just take it out with a mine or a well placed rocket

Look at is this way. Is C4 more powerful than the AT Rocket? Yes. Is there an effective way of delivering that payload to the enemy unit in a quick and efficient manner? Yes. It takes 2 - 4 shots w/ the Rocket to destroy a tank *depending on where you hit it* Vs, 2 C4 on a Jeep, a bit of luck, and the ability to drive a vehicle, can help turn the tide of a battle over a flag spot. Is it cheap? No more than using M203s. Are there other ways to do it? I'm sure there are, many examples have been made in earlier posts. Different situations demand different solutions. Go with it.

Jihad Jeeping is great to make people nervous whenever they see a FAV or Jeep coming directly towards them ^^

Last time on FuShee Pass I killed one guy six times. The seventh time he tried to move his SAM into my base he jumped out of it and started running away. For a split second I thougt he might have planted C4 as well but then I noticed his L85, switched to gunner position and shot him. Then I took the SAM and started a run into the enemy base ^^

It is a very cheesy tactic but a very effictive one.

One tactic I like is to C4 a jeep and park it in a spot that it becomes somewhat of a roadblock. Tank/APV drivers look for the explosives on the road but they seldom think of it being on a Jeep. Of course they could always blow it up before they reach but you'd be suprised how many choose to ignore it.
I was just going to say that, put the explosives inside the unmanned jeep on the side of the road and wait for the convoy to roll by and then blow it, no one ever looks inside the jeep,  you can't see them.  Better than throwing them on the ground.

I would say most likely when people realized that C4 sticks to vehicles.

I don't think this is unrealistic. After all, there were Japanese kamikaze pilots in World War 2. They would hop in a plane filled up with explosives and fly it into a Allied ship. We wouldn't call them stat whores would we?

That's right - they're an awesome rock band from the eighties and early nineties.

As far as the topic goes: I don't mind the C4 suicide vehicles so bad, really - as often as not the tank kills them before they get there, in my experience.

But I will say I played in a series of rounds on SF where we were terrorised by a lunatic called Snowwy who zoomed around on those ATV quad bikes loaded with C4 slamming into things, which I'll say are much much harder to shoot than jeeps. And it would seem they explode really easily when rammed into things.

Unfortunately, my squad continued to get terrorised by this idiot even after the autobalance put him on OUR TEAM because of how indescriminately he smashed into things.

It's these underhanded and dirty tactics that mkae Bf2 fun to play, seriously if we all played with every veihcle and vessle the way it's meant to be done it'd be boring, slapping C4 on cars and driving them into things and mining the roads that makes it fun.

Although I try to stiuck C4 under cars and tanks drive them into enemy bases, blow up the already spawned veihcles and wait, somethigns when I do it to blackhawks I can get up to 5 kills easy!

I'm a avid  tank commander and as much as I hate the suicide transport its a very legit way to take me out. I despise you jihad mothers but I rape your team and you can try and get me back. Alls fair in love and war. I hate the term "whore" when someone actually uses the vehicle to its potential. Why should I drive my tank to take a spawn when I'll get rapped by all the special forces? I should'nt. I'm more effective playing back and doing as much damage until my infantry can take the point. Everything can be "whored" but there are some tactics to everything that is "whored" too. I'll keep camping uncapped flags and if ya wanna take me out with a jiihad jeep more power to ya!

Word to ya motha.

I am one of those Jihad Jeep drivers you all speak of. Actually, its how my clan gots it's name:

[size=10][color=red]The Happy Jihad One-Way Trucking Serivce.[/size=10][/color=red] Prompt, accurate delivery of your goods. Just don't ask for a receipt.

Anyway, I mostly try to do it in good fun. Every so often, after a 3rd or 4th successful run, I'll shout out "Allah Akkbar" in the talk to everyone screen, and I get a good laugh out of it. Every so often, I'll get some tool who will accuse me of cheating, and this pisses me off. Let me tell you, if you don't like it, don't let the suicide bomber know. If you start giving me shit, I will suicide bomb you until you leave the server, or join my team. I don't ever TK. That's just my thing.

Anyway, long live the bomb buggy.

And on a related note, future possible teammates take note... if a car that's driving by looks like a christmas tree from the detpacks, don't hitch a ride, I really don't want the TK's. Let me do this solo.

b

P.S. I DO like C4+ATV's too. Those are REALLY fun. You don't even have to jump off to det them. UP NEXT: C4+Jet Skis.

is anyone running into a problem of a kamakize driver with c4 on their car? 
They throw C4 on their car and drive around looking for tanks and stuff. then they drive the car up to you, jump out and hit the C4, blowing up the vehicle, the tank AND themselves.  Last night it happend like 2 times to me and my squadmember.  Its really quite annoying.
i laugh like a horse. it's a veri original tactic
