There's plenty of things you can do, believe me.

AT mines being the biggest way to dispose of them, and if you know basically when they're coming around you have an AT turret you can hop on and fire off 2 shots before they realise where you are which is basically death. C4 on the road, right on the fork where they either go over river or towards the base is also a good place.

When your last M-Com looks as if it's about to fall just start running back to the next base and lay some traps down ready. I've never had a problem with the tanks though.

Yeah your probably right. I was playing a medic for most of that round as the team didnt really seem to make any sort of progress defending the objectives. We started off "ok" but by the time I got into the game A was already gone lol. I'm still not a fan of the map though as if you get spotted theres no proper often differences in terrain to get behind quickly to withdraw when you get shot at lol. Probably easier on hardcore then normal for this rush map :O
 
Played for a while on the 50klicks server (cant remember who posted their address on the forums)

Very nice conquest server with FF on, seems to be a nice standard of play and admin are quick to sort out issues like team balance.

Liking the change of having FF on, makes me have to pick my shots with the LMGs rather than just praying and spraying
 
I wish they had more varying map styles, for example a fully urban map, underground bunkers etc, so many things they could add to vary the map some more. Also would be great to see 64 player support, can imagine the game would be epic with 64 people :)
 
Nope it's a problem with lots of joysticks, my Cyborg included :mad:

My cyborg works a treat, I just rebound everything and I was away. If you have any other controllers plugged in you may need to unplug them before you play, I had a wheel plugged in and it defaulted to that.
 
Well this game has offically blown my graphics card. Gutted now bc2 for me for a few weeks until i build my new pc! deverstated.... look out ocuk here comes £1000+

TFU servers will be restarted soon as they've been full for 18+ hours
 
Just managed a 5115 score without any stars or badges, just pins and combat score as a medic with the M60. It definately needs toning down because you can literally snipe with it if you tap the trigger lol. Its fun to play a medic as you don't really concentrate on killing people when the **** hits the fan and instead revive the people who are needed first, well first lol. Ie you dont res a sniper when theres people about 30 foot away running at you, res the assault to nade em instead :D
 
Is it me or have the Tuber population interbreaded with Snipers to make some sort of Tube Sniper

:(

Sadly yeah, loads of people are gustav noobtubers now just for the single shot kill without exact aiming due to the splash damage. I got killed by a TFU guy earlier with it 3 times out of 5 deaths and he said I was a noob for dying to it. I did laugh, what am I meant to do, disarm it in mid air or something.

Hardcore is abit of a joke atm though as it favours highly specific kit combinations for point whoring. Snipers using VSS + magnum make them nearly as good as an assault guy at close range, engineers using the Neostad 2000 + slugs/magnum for 1 shot kills + gustav then the usual 40mm noobtube parade and M60 guys.

Plus the lack of radar and spotting promotes seriously heavy camping on both teams meaning very few people go for mcoms or even defend them properly lol. Not the best of gaming experiences to say the least
 
I'm starting to prefer hardcore but I wish they'd done more than remove the HUD and slap half your health. The sniper rifles should have their long range damage reduced to 10 with the headshot multiplier increased to 10x so one shot headshots are still fair game but bodyshots aren't a one hit kill. Splash damage of Gustav needs to reduced critically and something needs to be done about the LMGs.

I agree hardcore needs some more tweaking, feels a bit last minute at times.
I think the sniper rifles are fairly spot on as is, maybe just make body and head shots one hit kills, but then again, an M95 would probably take a leg clean off and that would hurt. In all the snipers don't seem to bother me a huge amount.

Gustavs are currently the bane of my existence, massive splash and fast, but why narks me more is the fact its not designed to be used against people, yet it almost exclusively is, resulting in the tank on the hill staying there half a round despite the 10 engineers prancing around. An idea Lyon had of making you have to aim it for a second or two might help reduce its effectiveness.

M60 is a bit of a pain, tone it down a touch, but again i've not found it a massive issue, tubes again are fine in my eyes, you just have to live with some things.

You see, thats why you should be using your Recon Probes!

...oh wait :rolleyes:
 
Is it rude to say in here... that I'm getting bored of this game? :(

I have to agree sadly i am losing interest in it more and more and i know a few that are the same.

No don't be saying that I'm building an i5 750 rig to play this with a friend this week? :eek:

And some other games, not had a rig for a while and went console but need my pc for fps

whoops bit of an epic session :-/

Until gone 5am? Like your style ;)

thanks I KNEW there must be issues.

...and yes I'm getting bored....not of the game but the constant issues and minor irritating flaws.............
gonna re-install COD 4 for some real issue free fun again:p

Dont think i could go back to other games now, if i seen someone run behind cover id try and blow it up. Too used to the destruction in BC2.
 
Can't say I've had any real game-breaking issues, either major or minor. Okay, so server history and favourites don't work but filtering by UK servers has always been my prefered way to find games anyway. Would be nice to see an update implement a way to save your default/previous kit load-outs though.

Oh, and anyone moaning that Gustav's are more overpowered than anything else needs their head checked, but then again you can pretty well guarentee they're the same people spawning with an M60 and holding their index finger down solidly anyway. Some weapons/kit combos are definitely better than others but no one thing dominates, and it's not as though you're barred from playing with those toys yourself...
