Awsome game.. Then they blamed us for hax0r1ng and spawncamping lol...Bob_Marley wrote:Just yesterday on Al Kufra - my squad had 3 T-90s, we were moving round the south west side of the map, around refinery and storage. about halfway between the two, "Contact! M1!" followed by 3 125mm SABOT rounds blowing him to hell. Having a group of tanks work together like that is fantastic. And since 0.607 came in, nessacary, as now even a damn LAV-25 can blow a T-90 apart with minimal effort.
Or a couple of days ago, again on Al Kufra, we had 3 tanks lined up on the ridge to the east of village blowing apart anyone and anything that moved through our field of vision.
I still don't know how the **** the LAV blew me to bits.

My best tank kill was 2 days ago on that vanilla map Daqing (whatever it is). I was parked north of Old City, as an Abrams rolled by. I started looking where he would be, when I hear a gun shell just over the hill on my left. I sat there, hoping he was gonna move to my position, but after a while, I secretly parked my tank on that ridge and came to his side. As I loaded A Sabot, he had no idea, I was there.
First shot in the turret. He switches to driver, goes back, then back on turret, and sees me, just as I fire the second shot.
Then he drives backwards again and I finish him off, just as he stops on the other ridge....
Silly solo tankers

Actually ran out of Sabots that round, bridge was blown up and didnt bother to find an engy car, so I got finished off
Did I mention the U.S. SF trying to Slam my tank, only to get overrun by the fury, that is tank...was soo nice hearing that "aaaa - splat" when I ran him over
I always ask for a tank gunner, though, but I never get one and if I do, we always end up dead because of confusing communication :/

I barely touch tanks anymore, because I absolutely hate...despise...loathe solo tanking. I'd rather get the support jeep and drive around fixing friendly tanks, instead of having to operate a tank by switching between the gunner and driver seats.
I know this is irrational, but it just annoys me to no end, and I don't find it enjoyable at all.

Yeah, think so.'[BF2 wrote:Bonsai']...was on IGI, wasn`t it?
We dont play on Tactical as JD got banned for dropping a bunker on top of a full BH
and Devil's never seems to be populated when we play. Which is a shame, because igi hates JD's connection.
I think we do pretty well as tankers for an infantry squad
The key to modernising any weapon is covering them in glue and tossing them in a barrel of M1913 rails until they look "Modern" enough.
Many thanks to [R-DEV]Adriaan for the sig!
