BF2S Forums BF2 tips thread

Spec Ops:
- Jihad without dieing: let the car slow down to a halt in front of you, and make sure the C4 is on the bumper. This sprays most of the explosion to the front.
- You can travel faster by laying down C4 and shooting yourself forward on NO-FF servers. You can also reach otherwise unreachable rooftops.

Sniper:
- Often switch locations.
- Be patient, headshots are sure kills, bodyshots dont guarantee anything.

Assault:
- To the use GL: Use the top bars when aiming downwards or for close combat. The grenade needs to travel ~2m before it can explode, so make it rebound off walls to hit close targets. To hit long range targets, aim with the two vertical stripes at the bottom. For extremely long ranges, youre better of with bullets.
- Use flashbangs and smoke grenades before/during capping flags.

Support:
- Using ironsights does NOT improve accuracy, it helps you aim well. Save time, use the crosshair.
- You can hit targets at medium ranges by crouching, it saves time too.

Engineer:
- Remember you can repair your own vehicle!
- Use your mines smartly: Put one obvious mine in the middle of the road, then conceal two others in grass/shadow a little behind it. People never see it coming.

Medic:
- Heal yourself and revive teammates. Reviving is easier than killing, so try to do it as much as possible. It also saves your team a ticket!

Anti-Tank:
- Aim your AT at the front of the tracks when shooting tanks. Its a two-shot kill. APC's have no weak spots.
- AT rockets are insta-killers when they make a DIRECT hit, they have almost no splash damage.

Squad-Leaders:
- Remember you can give your squad orders! Secondary communications button.
- Your job is to cap as many flags as possible, your squad can spawn at your location to help.
- Stay out of tanks and helicopters, they only have 1 passenger seat making it hard for sqmembers to spawn near you.

Commanders:
- Always try to respond to requests, people only ask for what they really need.
- Keep your troops mobile, drops cars near isolated troops, not on enemy assets.
- Do NOT actively attack flags, you wont get points anyway. But stay near your own flags to defend them if necessary.
- Dont spot every single unit on your screen, spot units that are capping flags or near your troops only.

as a jet pilot u can easily spot infantry, for example when u fly over the carrier, turn around and gun them down:)

as a gunner, Dont mini gun at choppers that havent seen u! Always TV them
Dont use tv missles on driving jeeps, use the gun and aim at the nose of the car.
Dont Spray the mini gun til its overheated, use smal burst
When firing Enemy helo's close up with mini gun, aim at the glas, this wil get them down quick
Use the splash damage on mini guns to get infantry, aim at the feet or an inch infront of them.
Dont hang stil above enmy flags with a chopper!!
never instanly fire all 8 missle at once always use ur first missle to aim, then fire the rest
if u do and u get attacked by a jet then dont stay there but move!! FFS this anoys me alot.

Squad up

Follow Orders

Cover your team mates!

Drop mines once youve capped a flag

Yeah, we'll do that on IO

play more spec ops, its the one kit that can do just about almost every thing, and yes we can snipe with the g36c.

spec ops : assault+ anti tank+ sniper+ engineer's ability to lay explosives.... all this into one dude with a nice berret or baseball cap and a mean carbine.

I'll repeat the hint that only one person has mentioned so far --- know wnen to stfu and not drop ammo, health, or use the speaking menu.  Good players listen for enemy voices and if you're in the process of capping a flag or know there's enemy nearby the last thing you want to do is start barking in arabic offering people ammo.

21) If you see a tank, either commit suicde or run infront of it, hoping that the driver might mistake you for a spec ops and get out, leaving you a nice shiny tank. (Just had a ton of fun trying that on every tank I saw)

tip 21) B.
This is best done as support carrying an ammo bag towards the tank, or as medic with heal-pack in your hands.
Dont throw it , or the "yell"( ammoo, here !) will ruin the surprise.

tip 21) c.
Make sure you read all the posts of Fancy Pollux before engaging an enemy online.

Tip for flying the F-35B vs J-10
If you get locked, cut your speed to full reverse and pull a hard turn to your left or right whilst half way through the turn go full throttle and get your jet high, Barrel rolling also helps this.  when you cut throttle it helps to be close to the ground.

Tip For bombing in F-35B
Stay high very high never be below 450 ALT only dive down when rearming and bombing your target, once drooped get up high as fast as possible.
