Note to self

Post by {911}scrapmkr »

don't be clever and hop out of my tank to snipe Grinder when he's in a bomber. it doesn't end well.


Grinder, Jose and I, and later on Silent Death had a fun game on canyon madness last night.

when I died after my stunt, we had collectively over 150 kills :)

fun times all.

Yea, attempting to snipe a bomber carrying rockets is the riskiest since the bomber doesn't have to be all that accurate shooting at the soldier with splash.

Over the course of my career:

sniping bombers isn't a big deal. the idea is you snipe them from the side :)

:mrgreen: lol yeah the idea is to snipe one that doesn't see you, isn't bearing down on you, and especially not firing on you!

Yes the firing on you part is most critical to remember.

OTOH, you can actually survive a few moments of dual sp's if the guy is at the right range they'll hit to either side.

I really ticked off a guy I sniped like that once I was hanging on the wall in blast chamber.

ah the good old days
