I died about 15 times in one round from having cars dropped on me.  It's infuriating!

I'll use them in pretty much any way except as a troop smasher....that's just lame IMO.

At first i used to drop them on infantry, but now i use them seriously. 
The only time i haven't used them "the right way" was when i dropped it on the enemy commander after he killed me with artillery.

i use them for defending flags and for people who request them:\ on occasion i use them as a giant hammer on a parachute to squish a squad at a flag if we're going to lose ive won games that way but only as a last and desperate measure

I use them to destroy arty.
I use them to kill snipers, a/a gunners and jet whores.
I drop them on helicopters taking off, repairing or capping flags.
I drop them in front of planes taking off.

And occasionally someone asks for transport.

They are very handy to blow up an enemy minefield, esp on servers with FF off, and your armor is unsquadded.

Wel first its not a legit tactic

second this is the first time i heard you could glitch with the vehicle drop.
SO how can you glitch with it? I don't see a direct glitching opportunity

Oops prob a bad choice of words, What i ment was what are the posible glitches but never mind on that i found some using the search

A) dorpping cars on arty to get repair poins (not good for high score but you could get you badge with it
B) glitching into walls using the drop (no i'M not telling how cheaters be gone )

But i'm not going to ad them to the poll sinds its a about legit tactics for the vehicle dorp.

I mostly squash snipers or people sitting on the aircraft carrier. Also I drop them on the odd tank or jeep.

I drop them on enemy tanks and apcs. Sometimes it blows them up sometimes it doesnt, but annoying them and taking off their health is always fun and helps the team.

I use it to give troops rides, kill snipers threatening my troops, and to anyone who requests it. Sometimes early in the game I'll drop it where tanks usually travel to block there way and slow them down enough for my guys to get them.

Dude, the only real use for that "highly asked" vehicle drop is glitching. Like that guy inside the wall:

Mainly used for destroying tanks I've destroyed quite a few, and if they don't get destroyed, they get badly damaged by it.

I only use them for people who request them and when people really need a ride to get to the battle.

Car drop are also very fun to use yesterday me and my team where  laughing our asses off when i kill 7 people with one vehicle drop and won the match


It goes like this : Map was a 64 player Sharqi Peninsula and i was commanding the USMC.
It was a fun and even match USMC controlled  "TV Station" "Hotel" and "Alley way"
MEC had "City Entrance"  "Construction Site" and "Surveillance Point"
We had a bit more tickets about 40 - 25 but then at about  the same time we lost the "Hotel" and the "Alley way"
So we only had the hotel  to spawn and you know what that means CHOPPER RAPPEGE

so i had the brilliant idear of dropping a vehicle on top of the TV station to shoot down that damm chopper
But then this is the good part (tickets are now at 7-3 in favor of the MEC)

their Chopper comes hovering above our Helli pad the gunner jumps out and BAM 5 squad members spawn on him (tickets at 7-1) 2 try to steal our chopper and the other 4 are covering them
You can prob guess the rest but I'll still tell you  
The Vehicle drop hits the first chopper  and the pilot loses control and fly's in the other chopper BIg BOOMM (All
FuBar HE he ) and the wreckage's of the 2 helicopters take out the last 4 peeps
Conclusion we won with 0-1

i almost crapped myself from laughing, voip was full of laughter funniest thing that ever happened to me on bf2

People are using them as weapons instead of its intended use.  I know of a ton of times were a commander has dropped a vehicle on my tank and the tank freaking blows up.  How gay is that?

God EA is so dumb it's frightening.

All they had to do to prevent vehicle drops from being abused was to make them drop in a general area rather then pinpoint as it is now.

Ugh

I think it's a good idea to use them to keep people inside of your artillery strike.

Like if someone's inside the square in karkand and there's an apc on the flag, you can place the vehicle drop at the entrance so it's almost impossible for it to leave.
