This is simple. It resets your spawn time, one time I had to wait 40 seconds to spawn.Annhilation wrote:
why? don't get a death when u get revied
do u think snipers are useless when you get killed by one, roflwahjot wrote:
i really hate snipers in general. they dont really have a big impact on the game and are pretty much just annoying
of course the 'BUT SNIPERZS CAN BE SO GR8' argument will come up, but 80% of the time snipers are pretty useless and serve no other purpose but to annoy people capping points
i think they help clear the route to the enemys base.
If you don't want to be revived go to the spawn selection screen, select a spawn and leave the screen open. Otherwise be ready to move when you get revived. You can't adjust anyone's gameplay so PLAY BETTER ON YOUR OWN. If you find yourseslf getting killed and revived by some fool and instantly killed, go medic. Follow the crappy medic around til he gets killed, ambush the attackers and revive him, since that's apparently so easy for you to do. God... whiny runts.
I don't hate any kits, because they are all useful in their own way. I've just seen too many people who are good with any single kit to say otherwise. Anybody who hates a kit, and I mean genuinely hates the kit (instead of "doesn't prefer"), really has some issues that should be taken care of, and learn to broaden their horizons.
So what do I hate about kits? Anybody who whines about a particular kit. Actually, I'm not too partial to whiners who complain about game basics in general (i.e. "NO SPAWNCAMPING!", "PLANE WHORE!", "USELESS SNIPER!", "RETARDED MEDIC!", etc., etc.). Some people should just shut up and play the game...

Point whoring, no skill medic. Thats a different kit from the combat medic, who is the best kit in bf2. I can't stand snipers, totally useless, stupid (Only on left, still camping the top of a mountain) and they got really no skill (95% of them). Even worse is the claymore-only snipers you see on karkand. Daily I see Captains and higher who just spam claymores everywhere, damn, it makes my heart hurt.
AT guys who just use rockets to kill you on foot.
THAT would be me kind sir....sometimes when I am OUT of ammo it's the only thing to do.and if you are close enough...i;'ll take you out.
Funny how >>>>>>my<<<<<< thread quickly changed from medics to snipers.Look.......I dont like medics who revive you for the sake of more or less getting a point for themselves when there's a chance to kill the guy that killed me in the first place.They have a damn fine weapon just to do that BUT......they have stats on thier mind.That's all i'm saying.....SNIPER TALK CAN GO TO ANOTHER THREAD....oops......look mom..there's like 4500 OTHER I hate SNIPER threads already!!!!!

Hate for a kit? Support. They're damn effective and I love em, but only when they're on my team.
assault is the shit. its becoming my best kit.
sniper is mostly useless except for when teams get "entrenched." like when there is only one base to spawn at so lots of camping is going on. the scenario comes up at karkand and wake a lot and if u pick the sniper kit, u can rack up kills on all the stupid noobs that think sniping and antitank is about sitting perfectly still while aiming a weapon. Also a sniper rifle may be the best weapon for killing people in mounted guns. All the same, i almost laugh when i approach a sniper up close--all the ways I could kill him!!! Its fun to just pull out your knife and charge at their face, most of them cant pistol whip you fast enough and die flatfooted. And there are so many handy ways of lobbing grenades into literally every single sniper spot in bf2! Come to think of it I really like snipers.
It drives me crazy when support players dont give ammo. Especially when I'm assault and want to spam smoke grenades (its fun to make smoke and it gets a support dude a resupply point for every smoke grenade thrown).
I will admit to hating the medics that don't revive me but any time I decide to "get serious" about winning I pick the medic kit. My clanmates use the medic kit A LOT in matches. And hell yeah, if you die on a street corner in any server, I will revive you from cover. and if you get shot again i will revive you again. I will continue reviving you indefinitely unless i think i could easily kill whatever is killing you. the reason for this is that i am saving my team a lost ticket, and getting myself some noobs points, and i happen to know as an experienced bf2 player that you can almost always bunnyhop your way out of one of these scenarios scott free if u are the one being killed repeatedly. I ALWAYS welcome a revive and rarely think changing kits would be that important. This is not stat padding, it is working for your team as a medic. Its something different if players on opposite teams are clearly in cahoots and wont kill eachother. I would be especially likely to revive someone repeatedly if i was at a neutralized or enemy flag where losing my reinforcements could be a drag. If you don't play medic this way you are just dragging your team down and losing them tickets, learn to use the kit and stop being a noob. And I think its dumb to shield the person being revived with your body. You can only count on your own ability to play and for all you know the person you are reviving isnt even expecting it and is going to take 3 seconds before they even move. If you make them the target, then you live on and may even revive them again. If you make yourself the target then you may die and they probably wil too.

i hate all snipers, they do absolutely nothing useful except gettin cheap kills for themselves.
