BF2S Forums How do you get your Support Points?

Well I run around thorw them by the supply crates and pick up the other suppoet kits becuase it takes to long to reload so yea run around and thorw them at people too just never have a pack in ur hands the should be on the gorund

I think its mostly alot of those people play Kharkand and just spam ammo bags everywhere, on crowded maps like that its pretty easy to rack up support points.

Go to the BF:SF map "Iron Gator".
Spawn on the flight deck as a "Navy Seal" and start throwing them around. And all the AA-Soldiers will be happy and you will get massively points. I even got "gold!" once just doing this 

spam ammo bags everywhere. 

the top of the tv station in shaqi is great for your snipers. 
anywhere and everywhere on karkand
follow a spec ops guy around.  he needs ammo after blowing up 2 of the commander's assets. 
if your a good and brave pilot.  fly along side your teammate's jet when he needs ammo.  done right you can keep a longer suppression up on an enemy airfield.

Hey, those are some good ideas!

does anyone know how many Ammo Bags you can have out at one time?

Edit: i mean, if you stay alive the whole time your throwing them out

5 ammo bags can be "live" at a time, after u attempt to thrw another....a previous one disappears

Throw em around, and during calm times when everyone is reloading, toss em and hold one out so they all get topped off to full ammo. Post 1.3, ammo points can be racked up very quickly that way.

Mostly just spam the bags in areas you know will have fire fights.  Around flags and choke points mostly.  Following classes who will quickly use up ammo is the other great way, especially if you get in their squad.  AT and Spec Ops can never have to much ammo and the G3 assault kit goes through ammo at an insane rate as well.  Bonus for the assault guy is that they can actually make use of their smoke grenades when they know they have a resupply on the way.

Once your team has taken the enemy main base, spawn back there and put an ammo bag at each of the strategic objectives so the Spec Ops boys can throw a full load on them.  While a strategic objective only takes 2 bags to destroy, you can actually put 4 on to put them -100%.  That way the enemy commander can't just drop a supply box and immediately have one up and running.  Or even worse for you, an enemy engineer can drive by each of them in a buggy and get them all working again.  Since the items are negative points, that doesn't work.

P.S.  As far as I know there isn't a limit on how many bags you can have out.  I'm certain there IS one, but I haven't found it yet.  Some always get used first or you're so far away from where you dropped the first ones you don't see them disappear.  As a practical matter, if you can throw a bag some place it's likely to be used, THROW THE BAG

P.P.S.  Oh yeah, only throw 2 of the 3 bags you can throw before having to 'reload' your ammo bag.  Then as the second one regenerates throw it.  This way you have one to throw or just pull out for the ammo giving aura in emergencies.  Nothing sucks more than being in a fire fight with your squad and them needing ammo because they didn't pick up your bags where you put them and now you don't have any on hand to give them.
