    Hmmm in two minds about this.

    Yes it’s a bit lame to camp a becon – but you’d have to be a sucker for punishment to spawn there again if you know it’s being camped.

    If you know it’s being camped, spawn elsewhere and call in a nice orbital strike. That’ll scatter the enemy and if not will most likely destroy your becon anyway.

    I don’t think there needs to be any rules about camping becons tbh.

    The Pilum is the daddy.

    Side step a tank and watch the driver get out and run for his life in the knowledge that one round anywhere near his arse will make it grass.

    Stand firm as that gunship comes head on in a starfing run – one round will bring him to ground.

    Hold your place as that APC races at you, two well placed rounds and he’ll be blown in space.

    And er think I’ll stop there as I reach the limit of my poetic ability 😀

    LOl you b*lloxs. Just had a nose at your stats. 🙂 Haha I’ve even played maps where you’ve been in the walker, been killed then surprisingly you’re back in the walker…then r2 *shock-horror* It’s only Ronathon in a walker again 😉

    I’d rather grab the walker first and use it to my teams advantage, than some noob grabs it an ploughs into the first flag that has a carpet of motion/emp mines layed in a patern like it just rolled out of Axminster. This leaves your team with no walker for ages (not sure what the spawn time is but it a fair few minutes) and at the mercy of the other team’s.

    I don’t camp the walker spawn, if I die I go back out on foot and help my squad mates by knifing Signal when ever I see him.

    I will keep an eye out for it spawning again as alot of people don’t and this can lead to the enemy stealing it and that just leads to one huge nightmare if you’re on the wrong side.

    Still I can understand if you’ve been on the receiving end of me in a walker 😛 But there are ways of dealing with them 😉

    and getting knifed by Ronathon ALL THE FUCKING TIME!!!!! 🙂

    lol, I don’t go out of my way to knife people. It’s only if they present me with an appealing target 😈

    The other thing is I don’t really whore walkers that much as most maps are too enclosed or full of armour to allow it. Camp Gibralter and Fall of Berlin are the only maps I usually use the walker on.

    Even then you can only really whore them about if you have a good supply of crates/repairs and a certain amount of close infantry support. If you don’t have support it only takes one soldier spamming you with EMP grenades to render you useless. A top gunner is also needed on Camp Gibralter as the main gunner/driver can’t elevate to some of the walkways/roofs.

    PS thanks to Silphy my personal engineer 😉

    Played this for a good 18 months and had a 6-7 sp character. (No you can’t have my stuff 😛 )

    Re-actived my account 2 months ago and closed it again within a week.

    Whilst EvE is eye candy and then some, it just far to slow paced and I expect soon you’ll be able to take a degree in how to play because since launch this has no doubt become one of ‘the’ most complex MMO’s out there.

    Spice it up with some 16 and 64 player sized maps too?

    Some of the BF2 maps in 16 player mode where nice little frantic fights in with 32v32.

    Sweet, must have read my mind, was about to post and say that 2 rounds of titan mode is a little boring.

    Think last night someone change the next map a couple of times manualy.

    Titan maps in conquest mode are akin to DC maps – engy’s dream 🙂

    Yep life is tough on the XDC server.

    If you’re not on your game, prepare for an evening of getting wtfpwnd!!11nintylevenbillion!!“¬

    Walkers will be EMP’d and nuked.

    Snipers will be hunted down and knifed.

    Spawn becons will be located and popped.

    One squad will make it to you back flag and put you in a world of pain.

    Once your Titans shield is breached you better have defence already in place.

    You will be AMP’d at least once a round by Tooth/Messy

    And Max will wipe out your entire squad with half a clip from his auto-aiming Vos 😉

    Best way is to tilt the camera down and look where your feet would be, then as mentioned use the movement keys.

    Although pod movement does vary a bit depending on what your launching from.

    Titan Pods – have the greatest movement area

    APC – medium movement area, unless within Titan deployment range

    Drop ship – dependent on height from ground (note do not pod out of air transport at very low altitudes or when it’s coming in to land. This will result in the drop ship hitting and TKing you)

    Spawn becons – very minimal movement – talking a couple of feet, if that.

    Remember the pod is also a leathal weapon.

    Pods launched from height can normaly take out most tanks/apc’s/drop ships/favs/static guns with a direct hit – Just remember not to hang about in the wreckage or the secondary explosion may kill you.

    Would also suggest when poding into a hot LZ, to try and land on a building or some kind of roof top etc. The elevated position gives you an advantage in combat and also those handy few seconds to re-orientate yourself on landing.

    ET Quake Wars (when released) is looking more inviting every patch for 2142. 😡
