BF2S Forums Cobra support on Wake question...

There's one trick of course - and that's th eesact opposite of trying to hug the ground to not be seen..

Take your Black Hawk to 600 feet and drive straight to the airfield. (It's a pain to get to that hight with a BH, but most jet-whores won't bother looking for you.)
After that people can spawn in and HALO to the flag - preferably somewhat coordinated so that 4-5 land at the same time, reducing capping-time.

This is never used public because the BH pilot gets 0 0 0 0 for his efforts even though he migh break a lock on the carrier and help the US get a foothold..

There are noobs who use the Cobras too. Mostly I fly to the edges of the island (The points towards the carrier.) and clean em from tanks, stingerboys and other enemies. So boats can get to land to. If I'm in a F35B I'll fly off to the Airfield, and try to capture it.
Mostly it works, but sometimes it just get neutralized because no one spawns at me. But that's no problem. I send the PLA attack chopper back to base and hopefully some other enemies too. Then my team is able to capture South base or North village.
If I use the blackhawk I always go south (PLA tends to spawn at north and camp that point so they can kill my guys in the arty island.) Hopefully there are no pro jet pilots or pro helo pilots out there.
If PLA is baseraping, you better hope you have a decent team who spawns on a squadleader when he is at the main island. If not, leave.

on wake, people need to leave essex, and bail over a flag then cap.  usmc SHOULD NOT engage in air combat until a base has been taken on island.

when i play it, my FIRST move when on essex, is get airbourne, fly to airflield, and bail.

once the flag is neutralised, field is levelled.  once flag is usa, j10's cant reload, therefore no deckraping.
prob is, too many stupid/selfish/shortsighted people play...
