Things you can do while commanding in 0.8 :D

[unrealalex]

Just for fun, nothing serious
What are some things you can while commanding in 0.8?

I'll start:
1. Study for your accounting midterm

[daranz]

Try to figure out why there's a squad with a chopper, a guy soloing a tank and a sniper in it, try to figure out the SL's name, and try to figure out exactly HOW to effectively do anything with said squad.

Also, when someone types out "TANKS AT MY POSITION" in chat, try to figure out which one of the unlabeled dots on the map is them.

Write stuff using the commander markers

[Mastatschief]

go to sleep or go shopping for some beers, but dont forget to ask every 30min if you should destroy a firebase.

[+SiN+headhunter]

Dont go commander cause it jams up the building process.

[vilhelm123]

Or maybe you could command?....you know....just throwing that out there.....

[LtSoucy]

I never leave my computer to do anything. When I command its cause you hold the team togather and without your team will lose.

You obviously don't get the commander's position

[Rudd]

watch star trek re runs

[wooly-back-jack]

give my fingers a rest and drink some beer without fear of getting kicked from a squad or kicked from the server for being afk

[Proff3ssorXman]

Finish that pesky Science Prac Writeup, occasionally seeing how many tickets your team has left.

[TAW_Cutthroat]

Die.

How about commanding ? If you take commanding seriously = epic win. Admittably on maps like tad sae you just have to shift one squad here to attack one squad there to defend and having something to do in between, yah it does not hurt, but on maps like Kashan or qwai river holy excrement as a co you hardly get time to draw breath. As CO I won like 90% of the games and by won I mean the enemy was crushed with a huge lead and his last flag either about to be taken or taken by the end of the game, unless all the 1337 tags were on the other side of the team then the win was more modest.

Posts like these tell me many do not realize yet how powerfull of an asset the CO is, knowing where enemy armor is means your guys can get into cover in time and friendly AT/Armor can surprise the enemy and take it out. Marked firebases can be strafed by gunships, the HAT launcher can be assigned to a dedicated AT squad on fools road so those militia tanks wont rape your team.

Me thinks you miss the point of this FUN thread!

How about connecting up ALL the randomly placed invidual blue dots
all over the map, and see how many different pictures you can make!!

At this point, if I had 1337 photoshop skilzz,
I would have posted a vaguely amusing image.

[Gore]

Drink beer.

[CodeRedFox]

Think we ALL need to think about these pics (master of the templars) that get posted up. Is this really what we want to encourage?

I would be logging off that server fast.

Yes, because the less people that take commander seriously, the sooner you guys will FIX IT.


Things I like to do while commanding...

Have intense debates about which celebrities have the nicest racks with my squad leaders....

Alt-tab out and download random rubber dukies (hey, who needs bandwidth as a CO anyways?)

See how long it takes to blow up a support truck with nades while reloading off my lol-post.

And of course, drive my support truck out to the front lines and be the

super-leet-no-minimap-no-kill-indicator-pistol-to-your-grill-commander

[CodeRedFox]

LOL random pants isnt there a Vanilla BF2 server with open slots somewhere, you can even get a kill indicator!!!!!

[random pants]

Yea, there is, and commanding is actually fun too!
