seeing how there is a huge gap between first sergeant and sergeant major, what are your tips for scoring as many points as possible during a round?  medic-whoring?  nade-spamming?  i'm sure there are some good tactics and some not-so-good tactics, i was just wondering what some of you do to score big...

Karkand:

Medic, AK101
If your good at vehicles then I suggest you go Choppering with a friend, or just rape Wake with the J-10

First one is more fun though

Get good with the jet or chopper and you will rack up points. Otherwise, medic or support on karkand if you are looking for something easier. Try to become more rounded than just karkand whoring though. You can get big scores with any kit or vehicle once you have practiced enough with everything.

Depends if you are a good player or not.
I did it mostly on EF and PLA maps just flat out armour whoring. Took me about 2 months to get SgtMjr and its a whole lot more fun and rewarding than just whoring karkfuck.

it seems the medic/support deal is pretty popular, i just feel i'll get bored doing that over and over again.  I'd like to do the heli gunner thing, but i dont heli camp or ever find anyone to fly with for more than a couple tries.  Most people yell at me to get out of the chopper, or they fly like a noob and i cant get any good shots in.  oh well... off to karkand i go...

tank whoring is definitely something i can do... i love rolling into a flag that was just capped by the other team and lighting everyone up.

What he said.

IO you could also look for some of the high-points servers where they reserve one of the flags as an unofficial uncap, like the cement factory on Karkand or the Jalalabad mosque (this is technically an ROE violation but I wouldn't sweat it given how little enforcement there is). The round is sure to last a long time; go medic and hang back from the point man/men and there'll be plenty of revive and healing points to be had, 200+ points should be a cake walk even if you only stick to one or two other players.

Even on a standard server playing a large map if there are too few players to cover all the flags (and you're not on a team where you're the only one that has a clue) the round should be long enough that you can get 200 points easy as medic. Warlord, Sharqi, Mass Destruction and Surge are worth looking for late at night for the right player load if you want to give this a try.

Yeah I would probably have sergeant major if I could just be a fucking karkand robot too. I get bored after a couple rounds, some guys can play like 12 straight and I dont understand how. Even though I get my best scores there I just get bored out of my mind after 2-3 rounds.

The one map I could play over and over is mass destruction from SF. Too bad its hard to find servers running it, I hate warlord and ghost town is 'meh'. Mass destruction feels alot like sharqi to me, I love that map, but I always play one round then they switch to one of the popular SF maps like gaitor.

I just saw AF and EF bundled together on CD at best buy. It was 25CDN and I checked online, 20USD. So I'll pick that up soon, huge tank battles on AF sound like fun.

My tip is just play.

It'll happen eventually. Set 5k goals and shoot for them or shoot for the badges/medals that will usually pop up during that gap.

I'm now 7.5K away from master.... it's a long ass road and pretty discouraging knowing you have more to go than you've already gotten.

your best bet.....dont think about the points and work towards awards...thats how i got through it....once you stop lookin and comparing your points to where you have to get to then you end up havin more fun just workin towards awards....thats what i still do now....the points will come....and the clime sucks but....it works....

It really just depends on how good you are. Just always try to lead the charge and get to capture points first really, that's how I get all of my points. I'm almost always AT now so my only points come from Kills, Kill Damage Assists, and Capture Points, along with the rare driver points. I always just try to get to capture posts first so I can get 4 points as opposed to 2. I still have a SPM of 2.3 or something. If you really care that much, go in some vehicle or just play karkand as medic, but karkand is really lame at this point. It's a good beginner map, but once you get past the basics of the game, you won't like it. I'm still ashamed to have it as my favorite map and even more ashamed to know that it's going to stay like that for a long time.

Raping with a J10, I dont really give a fuck if people dont like me for raping the carrier, but its so fun when you get bored of getting low points .

choppers and jets on wake island can be a point farm but nothing is more annoying than a server where somebody is already shutting down the vehicle spawns with a jet, chopper, or m95 (be them teammate or not).

its better to get your points by filling a role that isnt reserved for only one or two people on your team.

Nothing accumulates points like infantry and among infantry kits, support and medic are lucrative.

read my infantry guide if u want massive points and few deaths: http://forums.bf2s.com/viewtopic.php?id=55088
