Yes, but when it's flying it is actually being used the way it should; fly and shoot other aircraft/vehicles. When some idiot takes it and rams it into the other Titan right after he hops out to enter the first shaft, just to get blown up by an APM or RDX Pack, this isn't usefull, nor does it help your team.

Putting APM mines/RDX packs at spwn points.    Fine.
Chucking RDX demo pack to kill infantry.  Okay, works if FF is off, otherwise it's suicide.
Use the assault pad to destroy vehicles.  Fair enough.  Not so great against walkers/tanks/apcs but I normally have a Pilum to hand, so I land behind them.
Use the air transport to take out walkers/armor.  Banzai ramming.  If it works, do it.
Using the gunship as a form of transport to board titan Why not?  It's a portable spawn point.
Putting down dones near the enemy and go hide.  Not as effective as shooting them but still okay.
Putting down motion mines on front of the enemy titan.  Good idea!  I'll give it a go.  As a defender I like to put them on the back of our titan but I do attack sometimes.
Sitting on the titan guns all day as an engneer. Does this work to repair the guns?  If so and you can get decent points, good thinking.

Basically, if these things work, go for it.  I had someone complain this weekend about me putting APMs on the titan.  There's nothing against it in the rules and it works, so beware, I'll keep doing it.

the gunship is not a spawn point...by far this pissed me off the most when i played 2142... but i got bored of the shitty game and went back to bf2.....150+ hours wasted

well, cheapest would be putting APM mines at spawn points, except spawn beacons ( as that allows them to avoid being killed), and as for most effetcive,titan pod to destroy vehicle. that uis great. ui vcan imagine, enemy are strating to pod out to youre titan, then yousmack stright inot them, killing them, then grab the APC and pod backonto yuor ttian to dela wiht any that got through/ ge tinot titanpods for the next round when they respawn, making sure to turn some silos while you're at it to deal with the anti-titan misslies, and drop the enemy titan's shields.

Nade spamming. Anyone who plays as support just to spam nades is weak. Anyone who finds an ammo box and sits there spamming nades at "choke points" deserves to be PB  ban for being plain faggots.

i hate when people ram with the transports.

on the other hand, podding into a vehicle is perfectly legit. when i'm a commander and i only have a few people defending with me, and it's my job to keep the consoles intact, i constantly pod into the transports on the rear deck. and i usually end up getting killed by it, but it prevents spawning of the enemy from there.

Fuck i hate that. When your comanding and telling them to get off the titian, we are losing. It drives me insane. Should be able to pick people up and move them as commander

LOL only joking that would be stupid ahaha
a big trap door under the titan, if they stand around for too long it just opens automagically and the attacking team get amused seeing all these idiots kill each other by landing on each others parachutes

Putting APM mines/RDX packs at spwn points.   Okay if it is a spawn beacon; I mean, you lay it out and you take your chances.  Not okay for fixed spawn points.

Chucking RDX demo pack to kill infantry.   In FF off servers, I am guessing.  This is not like chucking grenades or shooting.  If it was a FF on server, you would be blown sky high committing suicide.  This is chuck chuck BOOM.  Even worse than noob tubing.

Use the assault pod to destroy vehicles.  Fun, and part of the game.

Use the air transport to take out walkers/armor.  Ramming.  Ramming sucks, but desperate people do desperate things.  Once in a while it is okay.  As a primary form of attack it is stupid, wasteful, dishonorable, and cheesy.

Using the gunship as a form of transport to board titan.  Against.  It is just a terrible use of one of the most effective vehicles in the game.

Putting down dones near the enemy and go hide. Smart.  This is called TACTICS.  That is what drones are for; use them and save your own skin.  However, same use on spawn points as APMs and RDX.  Spawn beacons okay, fixed spawn points not okay.

Putting down motion mines on front of the enemy titan.  I personally dislike this, along with putting them on the shield, but as long as it is allowed, it is part of the game.  Again, TACTICS.

Sitting on the titan guns all day as an engneer.  Smart, and effective.  Keeps the guns in action, and helps fire support for your team.  I am sure it makes your day difficult if you are the Engineer running around under the titan trying to blow the turrets up when the guy keeps killing you, but it is STRATEGY.

Forgot Jihad jeeping.  Sucks.  Wimps and cowards.

"Putting down motion mines on front of the enemy titan." - I believe I was the first to do that.
