wow, there’s so much advice that everyone has :D.
Personally my gametype varies from a suicider to conservative, never move. I think you gametype has to vary from level to level server to server. Now if you only play on a few servers you get to know how the people play. That being said you ahve a better chance of that 4/5 groups of guys going on those few servers you play on then just going to whatever server.
It also depends on your playertype.
Soldat - We all know this type of player is the “up in your face” selection. From panzers to flamerthrowers to the mg42 there’s only two words for them “Pure Power”. Although you can get that one guy that stays at a window a gazillion feet away and just sitting there with a panzer and shooting randomly, haha i have a good example of that. On saber_peak there was this one guy on axis and he just stayed in the bunker spawn and stood by the window with his nocs and fired his panzer…was sooo annoying but very effective. You can also go right up to a guy, jump and shoot at the ground, of which i know the results all to much I’ve seen so many techniques for the soldier. I particulary ALWAYS notice the novices on the MG42. They don’t understand if you just hold the fire button it will go everywhere and isn’t very accurate. You should use short bursts of 3-4 shots. A few well placed bursts will kill anyone and is still accurate. where as you could use 20 shots killing one guy and 5 with bursts. Athough there is a exception when you get someone up close…OPEN UP!! that’s always fun just wrecking someone that’s 5 feet away with a mg42. Flamers can be one of the deadliest weapons in the game…if you know how to use it properly. Now your not going to use it on a map like baserace now are we? You want to restrict your limit of the flamer until you get to maps like battery, or very small, enclosed maps. I usually tend to go suicide with my flamer because i just run into a crowd of the enemies and let er’ rip. If/When you get to level 4 soldier you get to choose from a pistol or a mp40 which i take the mp40 simply because if you have say a panzer and it doesn’t recharge click like that your dead, just whip out the mp40 and they won’t know what hit them. MORTAR!!! one of the hardest but most effective weapons of all!!! Atleast in my view. This is the most common weapon used in spawnkilling. It can be viewed as a “pussy” weapon just like the panzer is called a “noob” cannon. For this weapon to be effective you have to use your tacmap at all times!!(default - g) You have to rely on your teammates sight to give away the enemies position. Mortar can be used on i think everymap but you have to have the right conditions: Your spawn or hiding spot isn’t in close proximity to the enemy (of course), enemy troops aren’t getting near your spot and you don’t shoot from your spawn…that’s just plain being a tard now isn’t it? The map i like to mortar on are oasis, you can do baserace but i don’t like to. You can do it as the allies or axis, both are deadly.
Field-Ops - Ahh i think this is the most popular class of all besides soldier, although i could be wrong. The legendary field strike. One of the most common misperceptions of the field-ops is how hard it actually is to get alot of kills. I mean you have to find a highly travelled route of the enemy, it has to be reletively enclosed (so they can’t run away) and you have to be somewhat hidden unless you go suicide. You can get 100 kills in a map or you could get 5 it just depends. If you have alot of dumb people playing on the other team you’ll have a “field” day. The good or annoying thing if your on the other team, is you can sit in a window halfway across the map with your nocs and call strikes the whole map just but looking out nocs, fire, crouch. Unless you get panzered it’s very hard to dislodge guy’s that do that.
Medic - I have gone medic a few times and i find they are the peskiest people to get into a one on one fight. First they heal while fighting and second i think the better of the bunch prefer meds. You can be right up in the front lines or hang a bit back with your needle ready. You can just sit by spawn or by a high injury zone and pass out med packs. It depends on what you prefer to do. Be calm or be right in the thick of it. And of course you can always poison it feells good when you get a poison kill but sucks whena teammate shoots your to be poisoned kill.
Cov-Ops - This is truly my favorite. The biggest assumption about cov-ops is that they all camp. That’s wrong. You’d be surprised how much that FG hurts when you get a clip fed into your belly. I think all cov-ops try to get to a enemy body when one comes close to then and get into diguise. Have you ever seen a “teamamte” run backwards towards your spawn? It’s a nifty trick that only a select few do. If your in disguise and your back is to the enemy i believe even if they can pick out the disguised guys they won’t know your one, but if you go forward at a enemy you will. Just a nifty trick that i picked up and wanted to share. My personal favorite for sniping is the FG. The range might not be long but i like the firepower in the shot and there’s not that bad of a recoil although there is a fair bit of movement in the scope (swaying and such). It might not be silent but it sure is deadly. With the other sniper you get the range and the power but not a fast rate of fire and there’s a huge recoil. A well placed shot is a one shot kill or at most a 2 shot kill. I believe each shot does 55-65 damage (?). It’s also silent so you can’t be picked out if someone’s near you and your shooting. All cov-ops have to be able to hide well. I mean your not going to stand in the middle of a map sniping now are you? Never underestimate the power of a cov-ops.
I won’t comment on the eng because obviously you know more then me about it
