Well it's getting to the point where all of those great "hiding spots" for beacons aren't so great anymore. For example, the ol' beacon between the silo and refinery trick.. yeah getting old. First place I look now, and people still do it. Now if you're playing against a bunch of n00bs, then it probably wouldn't much matter. Sometimes it's just better to stick the beacon in obvious spots where people don't tend to look.The Refinery - I usually plant a beacon INSIDE the building back in the dark corner that faces the silo, this usually tends to confuse people, and if it doesn't the timed c4 i placed it with will make them understand. Another good spot is in front of the harvester doors, if you time it right, the harvester will cover your beacon when it comes back to unload.
