I suggest you remove advice nr 6 since it is not an advice but an obvious exploit.

Advice nr 15 about the medic is a good advice though, one that i always use. Its funny why a lot of medics still spend time using recessitate when it is mostly unnessasery and the fact that dropping a Field dressing does the same trick.

I can add that if the sound cue when using an epipen on a body sounds very wierd (like a sound card faliure Jizzzz) then it means that the guy has given up (dead dead) and your wasting epipens. If there is no impact sound when using the epipen you properly missed the target and you should try again or you need to push the target out of an object he may be stuck in untill he make the sound of a body falling on flat ground. make sure that you aim directly down when using it.

Well, its an interesting question. What is an exploit, and are all exploits a bad thing?

For instance, how many of us have dropped crates through a wall or fence? I know I have. It is common practice, I've never seen anyone banned for it and would never even think of banning someone for doing it. How many good medics drop a patch on someone before you revive them? All good medics in my book. Should people be banned for doing that?

I'm fairly certain that they closed the bottom of the constructable stuff to prevent that. But yeah, that one is/was an exploit indeed.
I personally don't see a problem with any of the other stuff. Sure some are bugs, but can you ban people for using SL smoke or roping over a fence without dying?

'Limeni[BiH wrote:;1563030']Well not for that of course.
But if you use something to gain unfair advantage over other players, thats a totally different story. Those kind of heavy exploits should be considered as reasons to ban someone.
For example 6th advice...
Well, where do you draw the line? Is it gaining an "unfair advantage" to learn what buildings/statics aren't affected by Gary's/Big Reds?

What about:
4 If you set your anti-aliasing to 0 you can see through the lops of hills and enemys will appear as black specks hovering above them.
Everyone could do it if they wanted to. Is that gaining an unfair advantage?

[quote=""'Limeni[BiH"];1563039']everyone could download and use hacks also but they are not doing it...[/quote]

Very true. But it seems to me there is a difference between d/l a wall hack and editing a graphics option. Assuming Hit fixer actually works, would it be "cheating" to use it?

What about this then:

Which I think everyone would agree is glitching, as with the shooting through the FoB thing from before.

I'm just interested where we draw the line between something that is a bug that should not be exploited, and a bug that its ok to exploit. Clearly, crates are probably not meant to pass through solid objects. But somehow that is "ok", whereas dropping an Foxhole on someones head is not.

a crate going through wall simulates the ability to drag the crate around the corner and place it in a desired location.



Dropping foxholes on somebodys head is the simulation of God dropping a tonne of topsoil and planks onto some retard.


The things i said are exploits, and not cheats. its not my fault that there is an ability to exploit the position of a foxhole, but if its there id rather stay safe and kick *** than be out in the open with lead up my ***. same with the techniques. when in rome. and i dont use them really. i just know of them and practised with them. but being a squad leader, and doing stuff like that turns your squad into a bunch of immature five yearolds.

First, It's a matter of conscience.

Second, we can put every aspect to a test - if it pisses you off, than it's forbidden. Crate through a wall can't hurt anyone, but an insurgent civie dropping a hideout on a tank - that's something different. It hurts.

And thrid but not least - realism. Soldiers IRL could move the supplies to a better location if needed. But a dogbox falling out of the sky and killing my Challenger? Is it you Jesus? 8)

To bring a derailed Thread back on track..........


You won't find this from the manual

Throttle on all vehicles can be controlled with a analog controller giving you the oportunity to cruise at for example 75% speed making it a lot easier for a gunner to shoot targets even while moving.

The 1st weapon on most apc's ifv's aav's and tanks are often the AP rounds which means its good for any solid object, cars tanks houses.
the 2nd weapon is often the HE rounds which are effictive agains all personel or people with only little cower (MG nests ect.)
