Did you know that if you were to knife a tank, there is a 0.000000001 chance of it blowing up?

Even if you are not spec-op you can sometimes scare tankers out of their tank just by running up to it and squatting.  They think you're planting and bail out... free tank for you.  True it doesn't always work but when you're out of ammo you might as well "wtf it" mate!

Map Specific -

Fushee Pass - As commander you can go down to the pumping stations, climb down the ladder of the one nearest the river and walk to the back wall.  You'll see a pipe that sits just above the ground.  Stand on top and behind that and it's almost impossible to get killed.  Pretty much every game of Fushee that I've played as commander I've been right in the middle of the scrum and came through without a scratch.  I've even had people try to come and find me without any luck.

Ghost Town -  At the Upper North Side as AT or assault.  You can use the grappling hook to get into the balconies at the back and easily own everyone trying to come from the upper south side.  Other balconies are the same but I find that a great choke point.  Most people are watching the stairs for enemies and not 30 feet directly above them!  Use the G3 on single shot and DAMN!

Karkand - Spawn at the square and move toward the hotel to go on top of that building the nader's like to use to spawn camp the hotel in IO.  Climb up on the railing nearest the hotel and run towards the right side building jumping just at the end of the railing.  You can jump onto the other building and have wicked easy sniping of the US coming down the main road, you can also reach them trying to sneak up and over the west hills toward the burbs.

Warlord - Zip line Madness!  From just about any roof top apart from the Mosque or the Palace you can zip line to any other roof top.  I've done 50+ zip lines in a game and been able to cover, as a sniper, almost the whole map.  If your squad mate is support you have it made.


Misc Tactics -

C4 Jumping Any Map /w FF=Off - I've seen many people trying to C4 jump by laying 5 all in the same spot and standing on it.  They get blown up into the air and try to use their chute to come down on the top of a building, usually clipping the side and falling to their death.  Well C4 sends things flying in any direction related to the AOA so use it to propel you forward as well as up.  I lay 2 side by side and one about 2' in front of those two.  I run and when just on top of the forward single C4 I detonate.  Beautiful ballistic arc and I land safely and soundly every time.  I rarely need to use all 5 and can pretty much get onto any building.

Any map FF=Off as Sniper - Place your claymores back to back [IE: () ] and lay on top of them.  Anyone seeing you as an easy knife kill will get a nice surprise.

Even if you are not spec-op you can sometimes scare tankers out of their tank just by running up to it and squatting.  They think you're planting and bail out... free tank for you.  True it doesn't always work but when you're out of ammo you might as well "wtf it" mate!

Be a Grenadier! - Nades bounce really well.  Bouncing them off walls and door jams makes for easy cleaning of an entrenched position.  It also makes it easier to get nades on roof tops that others just throw right over top of.  The same tactic kind of applies now to the noob-tube as well since EA added the bouncing round.  Although nades will bounce more than once.
