I love using at mines, i figure that they are the easiest to get kills with as per tanks.


Story time!

Okay, one time on The Iron Gator (It's an SF map so dont cry) i snuck off the US ship and over to the Mec landing place thingy. I ran accross the edge down to where their heli's spawn, then i seen on the list that a whole shitload of people got shot down in a blackhawk, so i waited for it to spawn back. Once it spawned, i threw a couple C4s on it and waited, my time payed off, 6 count them, 6 people hopped in eventually, the blackhawk was not three feet in the air then BOOM! 6 kills for Tor!

Probably one of the funniest things was on Sharqi, I was engineer with alll my AT mines, so i sat in the mec end (i was usmc) and waited for an apc to spawn, only to through an at mine in front of it, BOOM when the guy got in it and moved forward an inch, so i do it again, and again, and AGAIN. i think i did it about 4 times ending with 7 kills when i was out of mines and just ran in throwing nades

more stuff:

put c4 on miniguns, chopper blades, and wheels. It's fun to see the skulls spin around.  Actually it's kind of funny because if you put it on a minigun, it doesn't spin nearly as fast as it should.

for the time being (I don't think you'll be able to do this in 1.2) carry only one c4 pack so you can throw it and whip out your remote instantly.

Mine would be in the form of the first movie on this page

On Wake Island, I was U.S. We had the two end flags on the south side of the island. I know a tank is coming from the airfield, and people are pretty wise to the C4 in the orad trick. So I place one in the middle of the road and two on either side in the grass. Basically, I was hoping he'd see the C4 in the road and go around.

The best is on Karkand. I was on top of the building in the square. An APC tries to drive into the flag area. Well, sitting on top of the building, it's pretty easy to just drop and click.

landed on US carrier on wake, put 2 C4 at each BH spawn, and then 1 on the Cobra Spawn, and waited (an arty had just taken out half the team). they spawn, i press

*boom*

29 kills, on top of that, 6 from minutes earlier, and what happens? China has won! (133-0)

@#%#@$^

Me and my friends are practicing taking a Bertha, 1 supply, 2 medics, 2 engineers and a specops, and just throw c4 down on everything, quite fun, still only have my basic explosives though

Lol, good times there.    I actually got my Good Conduct medal the same round I got my Expert C4...wasn't easy (and I know I've said that in a few posts since I recieved them both...but give me a break, I'm proud).    Got a few other tactics as well, but too much to mention.  You learn alot when you work for it for 2.5 months.  My first tries, I went into regular servers, buncha ppl, and never came close.  Then the day I actually went for it...I had all 37 kills with 150 tickets or so left. 

Yay I have a story.

Dragon valley, i had just capped the US flag at docks(the one with all the armour)when a US attack chopper come over.
i jumped in the car and drove. With this heli following behind went up the hill and past the vista point w/the gazebo, i took a deep breath and launched the car of the mountain, which to my surprise landed perfectly and only lost a 1/3 of the cars hitpoints.

Still the heli couldnt hit shit.

Drove on past and through the villiage and back up the hill. The heli had stopped chasing me by now and had decided to cap the villiage flag.

So ran back down and behind the heli, which was hovering above the flag not moving to see if people were around, threw a few packs of C4 at the bottom of the flag and detonated bang 2 kills, and a defended flag.

Afterwards the guy asked me how i did it with C4??? but didnt reveal my trade secret.

Needless to say my highlight of BF2

My FAVOURITE thing to do, possibly in the whole game, is when the opportunity arises to plant C4 on a chopper. Transport or Attack, I'm not picky. Once they're up in the air, I find a good viewing place and, BOOM!
It's brilliant, because they think they're safe. They have no incling that as soon as they got in that chopper, they were dead men. I also like counting it down so my mates get a good look at the fireworks.

One time I forgot I had planted it. Some guys were speaking over VOIP, (I don't have VOIP.)

"Fuck, there's an enemy chopper raping our base, we can't get rid of it."
I typed back. "Wait... is that the Chinese attack chopper?"
"Yeah it is."
"Oh shit, sorry."
Few seconds later.
"Fuck, it just blew up! How the fuck did you do that!?"

Awesome.

My story.

It was zatar wetlands (aka the worst map ever) and I was getting annoyed at the AA's inability to hit the enemy chopper.  I was in a squad as an engineer while my buddy was spec-ops.  We were trying to cap the center flag when the chopper returned for repairs.  I hid from it behind the shacklike thing next to the helipad while my buddy got himself killed before he could detonate the C4 he had put on the chopper's canopy.  After the chopper flew away I picked up my buddy's kit, dropped one C4 in a random location and pushed the detonator.  BOOM!!!!!!! the chopper in the distance goes up in a giant fireball...I don't remember who ended up getting the kills though..

-----------------------------------------------
although completely unrelated to C4 I have another funny thing to say about killing choppers in a way the pilot never expected.

With the jeep.  No not with the gun on top like your thinking.  I jumped the jeep off of the dam on Kumbra dam and bailed out to parachute down to the central dam flag...little did I know that I would have a front row seat to the jeep hitting the MEC attack chopper dead center in the cockpit.
