BF2S Forums i am wondering if you do this 2........

Good guide, cause that's what we need in bf2, more claymores on flags

Claymore spamming at spwan points or flags is frowned upon on our servers.

Yes, but Id never pick up a dead guys medic kit to revive him cus when it happens to me it really pisses me off.

Why so ? I say thx for that ... never mind what kit I get , I can easily kill some dumb enemy and take his medic kit . So whats your problem ? Teamwork is pissing you off , right ?

I do it!

heres a good tactic

i am usually the first or one of the first to spawn in on a new map (loads fast for me) so for example, I spawned in first on mass destruction as spetz, pressed insert to make a squad, then another teammate of mine got done loading , joined my squad and spawned on me in the heli.  We then proceded to flags where he hopped out fast and we only nuetralized the flags.  At the last rebel flag the first couple of rebels finally got in and spawned, unfortunatly for them we were right the in the heli.  We then made quick work of neutralizing that last flag and the round ended in record time.  The only problem with this tactic is that you and at least 1 friend need some really fast loading machines, you need to be on the same team, the map has to have an attack chopper that spawns right away at the start of a round, and it also depends on the map and size.
Alternatly, you could hold off on the last flag and just circle strafe the shit outa their team with the chopper.

I'm also usually the first to spawn in a server,   if i'm playing with a firend of mine,  i will take the chopper and wait on him,  but if i'm playing alone,  i always get a jet, and fly to the flag that is closest to their uncap,  and try to take it.
I sometimes cap the flag even before a single enemy has spawned

Isnt there a negative karma for this one? ;< Where is the trick? i mean why do you think the G button is for :"|

Old tactic...most people use them...they are good tho!

yes in a way its kinda obvious to do such a thing but a handful of people dont'; another way that i like to use in a thick fire fight is steal as much medic kits as possible and revive fallen team mates. instead of waiting for the charge on it; just grab another medic kit and use that one to revive.

thats like... normal?

I use that claymore thing sometimes. I don't do it too often because if I get killed with claymores alot then I get mad. But yeah good tips there.

I'm always amazed at the amount of people that don't revive me when I'm medic.  It's not hard to pick up a kit.  If people don't want to lose their original kit then it's easy to get it back, anyway. 

It goes like this:
1. I get killed
2. Teammate kills guy who killed me
3. Teammate takes my kit and revives me, I spawn with his kit
4. I pick up kit of dead enemy, dropping teammate's original kit
5. Teammate picks up his original kit, dropping my medic kit in the process
6. I pick up my original kit

Both alive, both with original kits.

Apparently this is lost on most people, though.

This might seem like common sense to advanced players, but it is not so common to players like me, so thanks for the original post!

I second that Daltec!!!

To all the flamers saying ..."Duh .. we all do this ..."  Please remember that people are still buying BF2 for the first time.  If things like this are not posted then the noobs may not learn good tactics.   

To those new players that are reading this ... picking up a med kit and reviving your teammates is a very good tactic.  Not only does it add to your score but it can turn the tide of a game especially if a claymore took out most of your squad and it's medics.  Learn the key combination of "G6".  This gets the kit and changes to your paddles. 

If someone gets mad because you took their med kit and revived them then they are a noob too.  If they have played for any amount of time then they would know they can pick up whatever kit they want within a minute or two.  You also have the option of picking up another stray kit after you revive them so the madic can get his kit back.  After a quick swap then everyone can have their own kits back.  Arnie details this above in his post.

I would shy away from the claymore and mine laying unless you are very familiar with the spawn points around the flag as well as the major traffic routes.  Otherwise the team kills will get you.  Like someone said earlier ... this is frowned upon on certain servers.

As far as neutralizing a flag and leaving, sometimes I use this tactic to avoid arty.  A lot of commanders automatically arty a flag that is getting capped.  So I will neutralize it then run away out of arty distance.  If I don't hear arty then I make my way back.  (A lot of the time you can hear the arty go off in the distance.)I only use this if I feel that the other commander is arty crazy.
