on a server like noobstories where every player starts with 350, everyone gets the idea to save for arty or apc or mine with techy.
When i play i immediately buy a buggie and go for enemy Harvey or inf..
this is better because by the time you teammates and opposing team by mlrs and arty, you already have the creds for a stank or heli plus a lot of easy kills from soldiers.
Sure let the techies mine the base, but dont go out with just inf, thinking you savin creds. Get Humvee and get twice the creds as you would get w/ infantry soldier.

Getting a humvee/buggy to kill the enemy harvester in a server where you start with 350 is actually a worthy and selfless tactic.

You can also help hold the field against humvee/buggy rushes from the enemy. You might not stop them single-handedly, but you can help hold them off and buy your team time to get APCs or whatever.

At least you have not used the Buggy to rush the base single handedly with an ordinary engineer as some players do. Tell Me

that's what I always do on BI (which is pretty much the only server I play with starting creds) getting a buggy/hummer in the field (City is my favourite but other base defence maps still work well) you can get a LOT of points from the harvester, whilst defending your own and usually several kills, added to that you act as an early warning system for the inevitable incoming apc.

Killing the idiots who decided they should spend their credits on a rocket soldier or similar, about the time they take their first shot always makes me lol.

Also, you wont likely kill the APC, but you can damage it, which will make the APC:

A: retreat to repair, giving more prep time for your team

B: continue to attack and get pummeled


This is a signature. Reading this is wasting your time.

i find on smaller server 350 starting creds = humvee/buggy + a techy/hotty getting in and then rush a key building.
On walls a engi and techy who are good players can usually get 2 buildings.

However taking buggy on a larger server is often useless as you will get slaughtered by about 10 soldiers

just a suggestion if the other team is really that dumb Very Happy u have harvy drive with buggy into most maps with base def (cept city cuz the harvy is too close 2 the wall) loaded it with 2 engies and they are hard 2 stop unless they got an apc. Big Ups

by the time the soldiers see me i will have already have taken a few of them out. And engis can repair faster then i believe three soldiers, plus there is always hit and run done over and over again

Get some teamplayers together and make an instant flame rush.

Start with 350 let it build to 400
Half the team donates to the other half
Result: 6 strong flame rush in 2 minutes.

I have seen this done, In a clanwar of course, not a chance in hell this would happen on a public server.

Killing the idiots who decided they should spend their credits on a rocket soldier or similar, about the time they take their first shot always makes me lol.


They are not idiots for buying the Rocket soldier officers but they are idiots for not knowing how to use it.

I buy Officer/Rocket officer and get an average of 6 kills (Engi's/soldiers trying to screw my Harv) in the beginning moments of a game.

So, it all about how to use the character.

lol..I agree about the officers...these chainguns rule! I just discovered this a few weeks ago and ever since, I am buying officers and kill whoring. Big Grin

Headshots with the chainguns are mass-murder lol...health drops like water. On maps like Complex and Canyon, I just buy officer and sometimes settle in that character for the whole game. Officers pwn those tunnel rats easy!

And yes, it's feels very "accomplishing" to pwn Havocs/Saks with chainguns. haha! Thumbs Up Big Grin

PS: Thanks for the compliment Sadu!
