Hey everyone,

I am a big tank and APC fan alothough i do NOT spawn whore case i know what it feels like to get punped when you dont know what the hell is going on. I ve seen a pickup recently in the amount of people who get transports, load them up with c4, ram them into tanks and APC's just before they get out and blow everything in the surrounding area to shreads.

Just wondering about everyones poisiton on this... personally i hate it cause you see a psycho driving towards you and you fire as much shit as you can but to no avail and within seconds your hurled through the air like a tennis ball :@

So comment and opinions please

Cheers

Jihad jeeping. I love it. It's completely accurate for MEC to do that. I can see a Vodnik hurdling through like a real car bomb. Only do it if you're MEC. Other then that, have fun!

i'm fine by it...if youre in a tank you shouldnt have any problem bringing it down before it hits you.

granted, its not very realistic...but when it takes like three shots from a SRAW or ERYX to take down a tank, i fully endorse jihad jeeping.

although its been a while since ive done it...notice i dont have my exposives badge yet.

Um... I think.. GAY all around, I mean its a waste of a vehicle, and you 99.9% of the time get yourself killed. Overall...pretty dumb and I would imagine to see gay bunny hoppers doing this stupid trick.

I'm with Luckstrike on how gay it is.

I think its a pretty good way of killing armored veichles, I think I saw a developer interview, were he said it was intentionally put there(be able to stick c4 to veichle to blow anything up) just so it can be more fun, on the video game of course. and I believe thats how the insurgents are fighting the war(at least thats what the news tells me, mostly from cnn), and this game is based on modern warfare. So there ya have it,

Out of point question:

Does it matter where you put the C4?

I sometimes hit a jeep on the nose with a shell or AT rocket, and I see it explode spectacularly. So when jihad jeeping put it in the sides or back?

i dont think it matters were you put the c4, but hey I never really done any actual hands on , like try it in different postitions and see the results, but I usually put it in the sides and front, but if you notice all you need is like 3 c4's to blow up a tank, hey if youre a guy that goes out of the jeep before you blow it up , you have an extra 2!

Suicide carbombing is gay? Wow I didn't know that a strategy could have intercourse with a strategy of the same sex!

Yea, you do die, 99.9% of the time, that's why it's called a SUICIDE carbombing!!!! The idea is that you blow yourself up and take the -2 for a suicide and +2 for a kill in order to clear a path for your team. If you wait and try to get far away from the jeep, you'll just get gunned down by the tank/APC.

Actually it is not accurate to say that this is a tactic that the MEC would use as they are actually an organised army as opposed to a terrorist group.

Jihad Jeeping is fun and you can make people really nervous and think twice if they want to push a tank up the mountain just to get jihad jeeped on the top ^^

Can you hear that?......... Thats the sound of no-one giving a fuck.

They are arabs, arabs do suicide bbombings with cars , case closed.
Thats a point tho replace the vodnick with a white taxi with red side panels and make it a Lada, while were at it.

I've heard lots of things about the MEC, but that just hits the top for the racist stereotype list.

calling it "Jihad" jeeping is stupid. The game is about modern warfare and has nothing to do with religion, in this case islam. Look up for the word "jihad" in a dictionary and you'll see the word doesn't even mean "holy war" as it is referred in the media all the time, but something more profound.

But what it comes to these suicide bombers, it's part of the game and it's a great feature. I have to give credit to a guy yesterday who hunt me down a few times just to blow my abrams away. Kept me from supporting the infantry on the oilfields.

noob question!
how do you manage suicide bombing? Driving -> Crash -> Jump out -> Hit the red button?
or Driving -> Jump out before crash -> Hit the button?

And you know TK'ing is something invented and perfected by the septics.

One thing to remember is that if the tank/apc blows up the "car" before it gets the tank/apc then the C4 will not blow. In battlefield 1942 I used to load up the German/Japanese jeeps with TNT and ghost ride them into targets, but in 1942 even if the jeep gets blown up you can still detonate the TNT.

Since when do Middle Eastern soldiers suicide bomb any more than Americans??

IRT topic, only fools kill them selves with car bombs as its perfectly easy to let your car roll far enough to get the kills. The blast radius is quite large. I rarley die whilst car bombing.

i could be wrong but i dont think any "arab" army has ever used car bombings as a tactic. however the mec the fictional army is certainly not considered terrorists and i thik in this context of the fictional army being superior to any middle east army to date i think they would also not use any suicide bombing.

HOWEVER this is just a videogame and while i find it annoying and perhaps lame that can be said about many things. also it doesnt help that as long as im doing it its fun and when im the victim i may be irritated. im all for arab jokes or a friendly stab but that dude was borderline bigot.

just a side note a vodnik is nowhere near a rickety jeep. unless you were refering to the chinese jeep (which you might be ..) it was designed and engineered after the humvee, its amphibious, better amrored, faster, and better on gas. not to be anal but i lookd it up when i thoughtit was just an old russian minivan, in fact its a damn good vehicle even though its an ugly lookin soccer mom mobile.
