BF2S Forums How useful are YOU for your team?

I am a team player.  I love playing this game FTW.  I was always proud of my positive W/L ratio, until a string of bad luck sent it from 1.3 to .93.  I also love playing for awards.  But I am very good in armor and will use it to cap flags and help my team advance on positions, lay down covering fire, etc.  I am always either commander, squad leader, or member, and always on voice chat talking to my teammates.  Intelligence info. is the key to winning at BF2.  You wont live very long once an enemy has you on radar.

rats snipers suck and when are you going to relise it, sure you can kill from long distance but its the medic that caps flags with the supports and then saves your team tickets by reviving. A medic can heal so he enters a fight like he just spawned when a sniper will go hide to save his rifle kdr.

Ok, 3 snipers vs 3 medics. 100m away, all snipers fire and deliberatly aim for the body so they're gonna hit 90% of the time at least, then you all get finished off with the pistol with ease.

Plus you have a biased arguement, how about you're pubbing on your own, not in your little 3 way orgy, i think i can take you out mate with ease.

Fixed it for you.

Hey, stops you getting the flag doesn't it, which in turn helps the team.

Anyway, i have around 1500 claymore kills which is just a fraction compared to the kit.

ok rat, but think it through, even if u land your synchronous body shots, u kill one, hes revived with full health, and so on. the fact is that medics can drain health at a much higher rate than snipers unless the snipers have some luck and kill all the medics before the medics have a chance to click on one of the motionless targets that are feet away. and groups of medics literally become invincible to snipers when they use cover to revive, which medics do all the time. so as much as u may like it, you arent much of a threat playing sniper.

u probably wouldnt find me playing alone on a server mindlessly charging you from far away the way you would want, i am usually playing with teammates helping to win. But lets 1v1 to ten kills, we'll do karkand with commanders (so you dont waste a half an hour of my time retreating and hiding at your back uncap, trying to lead me through claymores).

Ok lets go on dragon valley 400m away and you can roger rabbit your way toward me ROFL.

If you wanna play me join me on a server.

ok it will work, we just bunny hop holding med packs and throwing them, if we die we have 2 people to revive us.

Learn to read, he was referring to a 1v1.

Yes, and now we have you pinned reviving eachother, that's 3 medics that aren't capping flags, thus helping the team..

Yeah, sorry no. I rush Karkand east flank alone against multiple snipers on a regular basis. How exactly do you plan on pinning me when all I have to do is drop behind a tree block and throw packs? How you do plan on killing me when I'm weaving back and forth and bouncing through the air with medpacks no more than 5 feet infront of me at all times? Same tactic applies anywhere on any map. You'd better either have 2 incredibly good SVD snipers, or start running. Bolt-actions are great, but as soon as you need to fight someone with reasonable evasive abilities you're in trouble.

Plus often you will get nailed moving from flag to flag by a sniper and you won't know where the shot came from because he's hiding.

So what are you going to do? Hit me with a body shot? I'll be back at full health before you can reload. Even if you're firing a semi-auto rifle, have fun tracking me after I hear the first shot hit.

OMFG!

About a third of the total playing time that I have is playing a sniper, but I'm gonna refuse to get into a sniper vs. whatever debate.

Why?

Because the remaining two-thirds of the time I've played something other than sniper, and I know the importance of the other kits.

This much I will argue:

Every kit can contribute to teamplay, or prove it's retarded use.

Here are just a few examples of stupidity at it's finest:

1.  I've seen snipers sit on vacant enemy flags, and doing nothing but hoping someone eventually shows up.

2.  I've seen medics hop all over each other without killing the threat until they arrive at a flag... only to be blown up with C4 from the threat that gunned them down, or blew them up with a couple well placed grenades previously (personal favorite of mine).

3.  I've seen support guys completely ignore ammo requests right next to them, spam down ammo on a already friendly flag so that the enemy will have fresh ammunition when he takes it (even worse when medics do it with heal packs), and then fire rounds on the damn-near indestructable attack chopper to get it's attention.

4.  I've seen engineers place AT mines where they'll kill friendlies, and ignore commander or vehicle request to repair assets as they swarm over the armor.

5.  I've seen AT run out in the open, fire a rocket at an approaching tank sitting next to a supply box (before taking out the supply box), and then get gunned down by said tank or tank's fellow infantry on the ground around him.

6.  I've seen spec-ops blown themselves up, and other teammates, with C4 about as often as the enemy, or completely ignore a commander's request to blow up the enemies' assets.

7.  I've seen assault fire grenade lauchers at close range to not only kill the enemy, but injure or kill themselves (or teammates) in the process.  I've also seen them fire said GL at a MBT in the hope of hurting it, instead of thinking to use smoke or flash grenades to limit it's deadliness.

8.  I've seen armor completely ignore "enemy armor spotted" or "enemy APC spotted" intel in favor of waiting outside of a enemy flag to rack up as many kills as possible until said armor or APC arrive to join the fight.

9.  I've seen jets completely ignore enemy choppers and aircraft decimating their own ground forces in favor of dropping bombs on enemy ground targets to rack up points, then immediately return to the airfield to rearm, and rinse-repeat.

Geez...  Need I go on?

The best is when the other team loses all the flags, but the jets are too busy carrier raping the two people that keep spawning there to notice.

lol sarge, rustig aan man. natuurlijk win je op Wake als jij ergens in een J10 vliegt, maar dat bedoelde die niet
