Especially in the objective based modes.
And sometimes good old fashioned cannon fodder is useful to reveal enemy locations
When it is delivered I'll give you a whistle stop tour of the maps
- Place names: Essential, comms need to be quick and clear
)
- Early sniper spots: You'll find these out soon enough but just to give you a heads up of where they are, usually the points of the map where both sides can get to with a clear line of sight in the least time possible, between 1 and 15/20 seconds of starting) Running past these is often high risk but if you survive can gain great positions that is if you don't get hit as 9 times out of 10 you will die from a single shot. Though some maybe only usable by one side (actually that could be just the one map
)
- Extract points, can't be having you as the last merc alive in Escort and not being able to find them
frustrating watching somebody who can't find them when all they have to do is lob a grenade at them which should be enough to get the job done and seeing as most players carry 4 grenades. Seen many a person voted out for not being able to find them
- Early grenade points. As with sniper points you can gain your great advantages over an enemy if you survive
- Grenade lesson. Just throwing them through windows
then a long way, then a long way quickly, then a long way quickly and accurately
then a couple of tricky lobs on Crossroads and Urban Wasteland (tower/hostage room)
- Early rush routes though no two games are the same some routes get heavy use early on to get to particular vantage points
Cloudy mate, Mr_Inc will be your teacher mate... i wish i had someone to teach me the ropes lol...
There are many tips, tricks and techniques to help give your team the early advantage, but the most important thing is weather your team mates make use of this advantage...
Its a very tactical sport ![]()

I dont think you can disable attachments, but i will have a look tonight if i can get on...
my love for confrontation has most definately been reignited now, so i hope i can jump on it tonight...
hmmmm we could disable specialisations if that makes every one happy, i would miss my gladys though...
PS i believe ratchet has a negative influence on Elmo, i must arrange a meeting with his parents (Elmo's)
