I love it when all the 1337 players choose the HMMV and the opposing team steals it and rapes the hell out of us.

Answer, I always grab the tank when I see it going unused by my team.

I like the Humvee, but it doesn't come with extra socks.

Yeah that also needs to be taken into consideration when you encounter this situation.  What if nobody takes the M1A2 and the MEC comes into the un-cap and steals the tank?  I even do it when I'm Spec Ops going in to destroy assets...

If there was a DPV instead of the HMMWV then i would take it. DPVs are teh pwnage.

definately the hummer, its quicker, and i seem to be less of a target on karkand when i use that. AND when i hear i need a ride or see a person on foot, i always slow down and let them get in too, just so you guys know who hate the people that speed off. i mean why go off alone when you can have buddies along with you?

I just hump across the map on foot.  The tank just gets me killed too fast and the hummer a bullet magnet too.

On that map, at that location, you want the HMMWV. Speed wins on that map. Tanks are just sitting ducks for airplanes. I hate running on that map, takes forever. I'd prefer teh buggy, actually. Superfast FTW!


But in general: Groundpound FTW.

I am usually first in the game.  I take spec ops, make a squad, get in the APC and run off the right side along the wall and head to the factory.  My friends will then spawn on me and we can have everything blown up and take a flag or two before the MEC know what's going on.  We also then have their armor and APC then too.

I am usually first in the game.  I take engineer/spec ops, spawn on square, go to the right side, put my shit there and then waiting for your friends.

No. :p The claymores slide off to the ground. Sure would be cool though Protection from specops would be nice though

I walk. I have a tendency to die whenever I use a vehicle.

You forgot one of the options

Get in the humvee - drive to the tank - get out of humvee and get in the tank !

Ok, so you spawn at the Gas Station and you see an empty M1A2 Abrams and a Humvee.  Which do you take?
It depends what my squad wants to do, if they have a plan going and we need humvee, i'd take that, but if not you can tell what i'd take from my sig

LOL everyones being so noble, I'd take the Tank.

Look at my stats;
Favourite map = Daqing,
Favourite kit = AT.
(Ok yes, and fav veh = Armour )

Guys in Hummers are my favourite target! (Sucks since 1.3 and the Vodnik doesnt insta explode)

Incidently I would take a DPV over the Tank owing purely to the speed but a Humvee is a ticket to a 15 second wait for a decent AT player

I usually take the Abrams because it allows for more kills.  Sometimes i'm just in the mood for quick infantry kills though so I go for the Humvee instead.  Tank kills take too long and are riskier because you have to watch EVERYWHERE around you or you'll get screwed by a Spec Ops.
