Still wondering why commanders always talk about their kills.

Notice the fact you don't get points for that shit? Not sure why? Consider it a bug?
Do you think the fact your score is influenced by your teams scores is all 'messed up'?

Wow. Dropping a car on some poor fucks head, or tank, means GUYXYZ on your team doesn't get that kill, and you and he both miss out on points.

Wanna defend that flag with a vehicle drop? Order the nearest squad to that flag to defend it, drop them a vehicle. You all get points, But nah, that's all too logical for some people, same as 'teamwork' is a foreign concept.

P.S stop dropping ATVS on my fucking tank on Surge. A car killing a person is believable. A tank dying via a Quad, which 2 people can easily lift? Exxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxploit!

And to the people saying 'lol noobs, move', do you think it'll still count as a mounted machine gun if I chuck it in an Asda Trolley? or fit the TOW to 3 skateboards?

Dont start a new thread. Put it in the awards....


there was such a tard commander who kept shouting owned on the text when he dropped a car on the LB. I told him: "That's not ownage! Giving your mum an orgasm when your dads watching the game downstaris is ownage!"

I was kicked before I could see his response.

I've dropped supply crates on snipers and killed them.  It's a little more difficult to do than with a vehicle.  The Supply crates have some "random" movement to them, the vehicle doesn't.  After the first hour of dropping vehicles on people and arty I stopped doing it because it got boring.  Now the biggest issue is Karkan Hotel glitch with them for me.

The idea that if a vehicle wasn't dropped on your head a supply crate would doesn't really do it.  Dropping a supply crate on someone is a waste.  Dropping a vehicle on someone, well if no one's asking for a vehicle and you spot someone relatively still why not do it? 

The vehicle drop has turned into a silly exploit.  Based on a couple hours commanding yesterday, I see that the vehicle drop will not recycle until the vehicle is destroyed.  So there is actually incentive NOT to use it for the purpose of giving transport because someone sitting in that vehicle actually driving it prevents the commander from having it available to drop on people's heads, or on assets, or on enemy vehicles.

Ha!  Looking at your stats you probably shouldn't be coaching on sniping skills.

Yesterday 19:14:39      -1      Goddammit stop dropping vehicles on my head      you need to get your priorities straight... as a commander you're making sure your team wins not aiding point whores on your team; if it takes a car on the enemy's head to protect a base, so be it
You need to maybe go play some CS 1.5 mate. If you call anyone who gets kit points or kill points a point whore, then you are in the wrong game. If you want to kill people and help win from the front, don't apply to be commander. If you want to SUPPORT your team with information and supplies? Go commander.

Does it even occur to you that if you are fighting, you aren't scanning as much as you could be? Say you are scanning half as often by being a combatant, that's 50% less information you give your team. And you are half as effective in combat because of juggling roles. Do NOT turn round and say that doing a half assed job in 2 tasks makes sure your team wins.

Now, before you come back and talk some more shit, show who you are, so we see your stats and whether you are an uber fighting commander or just another schmuck.

not a problem here - just snipe with "E" pressed, and don't stand anywhere on the carrier without it pressed either.

Is it true that the USMC DPV (little black car) can't destroy arty when dropped on it but the chinese/mec cars can do it easily? On wake I can destroy the USMC arty easily with the chinese jeep, but when trying to destroy the chinese arty, the car always falls off, no matter how accurate. LOL I spent probably 30 minutes in singleplayer trying to figure this out.

Man, wish I was that lucky. I use to place vehicle drops on enemy artillery and sometimes on the enemy commander if he's not under a roof or inside a building. Rarely on snipers, I like sniping myself so I mostly just spot them

If you're dumb enough to be crushed by a vehicle you deserve it.
Crates are so much more satisfying, you only have to make up for a few metres of north drift. It can also be hilarious to see their response to a near hit.

oh I'm definitely a vehicle bomber.  it's fun!  as a commander, it's rewarding, although I don't get credit for the kill.  I find it extremely useful for defending flags.

It's a give and take.  if I miss, and you end up capping the flag, I just gave you a fresh vehicle to get to your next flag.

they put the vehicle drop in to compensate for not being able to spawn on a random squad leader, and also to help a squad leader who has died to get back to the rest of his squad.

the best way to fix the vehicle drop problem is to make it slightly innaccurate, like the supply boxes.  it's hard to drop a supply box on an enemy because it drifts.  perhaps a vehicle drop should do the same thing.

Before you -1 me, keep in mind that as a frequent commander, I'm victim to vehicle drops on me, too.  a commander is always stationary, and therefore and easy target.  a commander's arty is also an easy target, and it is impossible for a single commander to keep his arty repaired and successfully command simultaneously with an opposing commander dogging the arty with FAV's.

It's just part of the game.  It's not an exploit, it's a good idea with a loophole that clever people caught onto.  When a vehicle gets dropped, you see the shadow before you get crushed.  Just hold down the E key and you will enter the vehicle rather than getting smooshed.

What you can drop cars on to kill or blow up is kind of funny.
This is just on the map on karkand.

1. snipers
2. Tanks, apc, cars (even with full health if dropped correctly)
3. artillery much easier when your on the mec (get it dead right on centre and watch the team stare at there artillery in disbelieve.
4. Dropping a car on artillery while a mechanic is repairing it, this has to be the funniest kill with arty i have ever seen.
5. Dont worry out of all this fun if someone asks for a vehicle drop they do get one.

At the moment EA have not updated the ROE with the vehicle drops so its kind of legal

I don't see why you're complaining. If you're taking out the other team (like ou should be), than what kind of idiot WOULDN'T drop vehicles on you? A free sniper-killer every minute!

If your not, then clearly you're a noob who thinks that claymores are too scary and should have giant signs so that both sides can see them.

You also hate C4, Friendly fire mines and being pwned with a gun that has worse stats than yours and cost less unlocks.

Sounds like you 're one of those people who doesn't read a post properly before mouthing off.
If a random sniper is THROWING clays around the room in the hope of picking up a bunch of kills while a shitload of us are in the room, and they go off and kill us? Damn right I punish. It's called being greedy and/or retarded. 'Move and avoid them' I hear you say. With all those bodies lying around it's hard to tell which way the fucking claymore is facing. So I call BS on that point as there is a damn good reason to punish.

The next line has as much to do with the price of fish as comments regarding your sexual preferences regarding housepets. That's right, fuck all. Don't make shit up.

No karma for you yet, we'll see if you cry and give - karma, or actually respond with something not aimed to discredit someone you disagree with. No, I don't know the guy you attacked, I just feel you were being more of a cunt than you needed to be.
