Hi!

Today was a new record in terms of idiocy on the server.

Here are some nice examples:
1 person is defending the south tip(me),31 people are camping on the airfield.

Nobody reacts to backup requests,they just keep standing on the helipad.

A guy spawns at South Base and drives the tank to the airfield,probably to camp there.

I'm sniping from the North Village to the South Base,the only spot the US had at that time.
Once again,at South Base there is only me,31 people are at the airfield.
I begin to run out of ammo and ask the commander about 12 times for a supply drop - which he denies all the time!How am I supposed to get ammo???

The USMC takes one flag(usually North Base) and every little idiot on the map(besides me,I hold the position!) rallies towards that flag and in the meantime the Marines take South Base,Beach or even the Airfield.

Want a car?Shit out of luck!!Nobody stops,waits or evades if he's in a car and if you want one on the airfield you gotta run to the helipad because the fucking campers abused it as taxi.Really pisses me off when I get artied or bombed which wouldn't happen if the cars were at their spawnpoints!!!

30 guys camping on the airfield and yet - the Marines manage to capture the flag there.HOW THE F*CK IS THAT POSSIBLE???

Where are all the tankwhores?Not on Wake,that's for sure!!
Nobody keeps the tanks occupied and the US just steal it and take flag after flag.
If I wanted to be a tanker I'd be engineer and when I die in my tank I spawn at the tankspawn again and again and again.
I've even seen idiots who drive the tank up to the beach and then swim to the arty island.
They just leave the friggin' tank there with full ammo and no damage!!!
Can you say retarded??

And what's up with the arty island campers?
Unless you are a SpecOps and blow up the arty or you are supporting the Specops as a medic or support you have no business on the island!!
Spawn killing works very well with SpecOps + you are doing something for the team!!

All in all this was getting really ridiculous today,nobody does anything for the team besides kills,nobody defends a flagspot which doesn't have a jet-or heli-spawnpoint,nobody gives ammo or revives(ohh wait,they do,when you are in front of a tank! ) and nobody is able to take just one lousy flag!!!!

If the people would think a littlebit further than their scoreboard there could be actually teamwork on this map,but unfortunately there seem to be only 2 kinds of BF2-players:Smurfs and Smurfkillers.

Discuss...

What I love is when everyone on US side is waiting on carrier for planes/helis. .... 

No effort to capture flag on land.  Ha !

I love wake when the jets are dog fighting and everyone else is playing their role, but every now and then the jets are only bombing and everyone is at the air field or on the carrier (team kills galore). Or when you get severs that wont let you rape the carrier but will let the US rape the air field; it's like ok China cant get all it's air power off the ground but the US can and without fear of attack.
On a map like wake air is key to victory and if you give any one side such an advantage it’s just stupid, granted I understand the reasoning for it (J10 pwnzor the US jet), but when people complain about US not being able to get off the ship it makes me sick. If both SAMs are manned and the pilots are good then US can get off the island/carrier easy, but most of the time both SAMs are empty and people just blow up the jets because they didn't get it. And/or the people are just sitting around on the carrier doing nothing or driving the boats from the island straight to the tanks at the tip of the island. It’s like come on people think, grab the boat from the ship drive out to the edge of the map (holding down W and then pressing K will make the boat keep driving without having to hold down W) and hope like hell your team can keep the jets off your ass, then grab beach and storm (south beach? Right?) I’ve seen it happen tons of times.


I would like to play wake without the jets and attack hellis, that might be kind of interesting. (or with the attack hellis but with SAMs in better places; who the hell puts a SAM in front of a bunch of damn trees?).

I just love it if I am USMC and every PLA idiot is sitting at the Airfield waiting for their dear J-10/Z-10.  I take a FAV and run em all over.  PWNT.

I laugh at snipers on wake.  The ones that stay at the tips while blackhawks and such fly over going to north village or south base.  Theres no flag at either of the tips, so why camp them?

well, actual teamwork in bf2 gets you nowhere score-wise except MAYBE a win instead of a loss. most teamwork anyone knows of is revive whoring on karkaband. and yes, i admit, i am one of those 30 people waiting for that j10, i wont deny it.

Shows that you have no idea how it really works.
I am one of those snipers who stay at the tip of the island.But usually there's a FAV next to me and no blackhawk or RIB makes it to the island that way.
That's why I get a little pissed off if someone abuses my FAV as a taxi to get his noob-ass to the airfield or I don't get any backup there.

Even without a machinegun handy - spotting targets like boats so the airforce can pick them off is very useful if the team reacts to it.(Another thing nobody does - spotting!!But don't go there,I could write a whole book about the no-spotting-idiocy!!)
If there are smart pilots they take out what I spot.You can aim the cartillery for the commander to destroy the US arty(that's actually a smart method for cartillery,not that lame dropping on planes).And when the US arty is down there are engineers showing up which are easy sniper targets when they try to repair.

And why keep "camping"(that's DEFENDING!) there?
Because besides all the activities I just mentioned people can always spawn on me and attack the South Base from the rear.
Really helps if China only got the Airfield left and all the smurfs can't think of anything better than to camp on the helipad with 20 people.

So,there's a lot of teamwork going on for a sniper on the island tips,though it is not rewarded with teampoints like the medics or support get plenty of.
