Fight it.

Put a the missile into its tracks and pummel it with cannon rounds as much as possible. After you take the second hit, your APC will be flaming. Hop out, pop an AT missile into it. If you have hit the right areas of the enemy tank - then its dead.

I rarely go engineer in an APC. I prefer to use supply crates to repair and have the additional rocket so I can take on tanks. Works wonder on FuShe. Not that anybody knows about that map though.

You are alone in a brand new ass kicking APC or BPR and you're blood thirsty, usually with the adrenaline pumping the first instinct is to fight the first thing you see but a well thought out plan of attack might lead to you killing and them burning in the scrap. What would you do?

Couldn't have said it better, Also use terrain and speed to your advantage

If I'm confident that I won't die doing it, and if it's important for me to get to a flag (like when our tickets are bleeding), I'll blow right past the tank. But it only works in some cases, like if you can quickly get behind some cover.

Otherwise, at close range, same thing every time: Fire at the treads; when I'm on fire or one shell from dying, turn to the left and bail, and use the charred shell of the APC as cover to fire a rocket (as anti-tank) or make a swift escape (non-AT).

Long range = Hit and run.

^^^

This tactic works every time. There is nothing better than sending a rocket through the charred remains of your apc. Remember to turn left though.

Start shooting with the main gun whilst launching a rocket then backing up & releasing some smoke, come through the smoke at a different angle once the rocket recharges & repeat.

I fire the 1st rocket from the APC at its tracks. If I have an AT kit, I turn so my right side is facing him and jump out and hit him with an AT rocket (assuming its not karkand). If I have engineer, I can usually take him down, unless he is a really good player, and knows about the gas tank.

This is why you should be AT while driving tank/APC. I stay and fight and get his health down and jump out and shoot him with an AT rocket.

Unless I'm on lower health, I'll take on the tank, the number of times an apc has destroyed my perfectly healthy tank (about thirty times) makes me think it's pretty reasonable to duke it out. It's not the hardest thing to do to destroy a tank, just rely on people leaving their tank aim speed settings at the rather slow default speed and outmaneuver them whilst pummeling them with rockets etc.

lmao. I never thought of that. Talk about tuck tail and run....

Where is the "PLant 5 C4 all over APC drive straight at Said enemy, bail out and BLOW em' all to hell" Option?

Or, how bout the "Fire rocket, drive past, smoke screen, pwn all infantry on ground, drive around and back to fire rocket again, bail out cause you know your phcked the second time around. Pwn all infantry on ground, die, respawn repeat " option?

If your playing with friends, and you choose the APC yes being AT is a good idea. If I get teh Tank though, I spawn engy cause I can own everything in sight if I can get that tank backed up and repaired after every fire fight.

Nature is a powerful force. Those who seek to subdue nature, never do so permanently.

Well the stupid lock sounds appears on him anyway, so you better fire that first rocket. Then you get out and drive a block long enough for your rocket to reload.

Then unleash hell.

The missiles lock? Mine never seem to.

Fire the rocket, Hit reverse and get behind some cover all while nailing him the the gun.

Wait for him to come to you, and hopefully the second rocket will have loaded by then.

Pretty much the same here,sometimes there isn't cover so i fight till i can then jump out like a madman and spam At mines and normally get killed.
