So I was playing as Nod this morning on Under and GDI was really sticking it to us with med tanks cause they had some good engie support. I snagged a stealth black hand to try and help resolve the issue. Upon ariving in the field I notice these three er so med tanks have three basic engies who as usual hudle around the vehic thats taking the most damage. To exploit this pattern I tossed some timed c4 on one of then engies (I was standing behind him) and hoped for the best. Shortly there after I was spotted and decided to help inflict as much damage as possible by dancing around shooting the meds which distracted their attention giving some others a chance at some shots as well. You guessed is 30 seconds later I was the happiest guy on Nod & within a few mins we were able to leave the base again (I believe we went on to win by points not positive tho) Screen shots below.


Hey will you hold this for me ?

I do that a lot its also very usefull when engies are repairing the last building, go in the with a steath black hand or anything pick the n00biest player(cause you know he wont stay still) and chuck it on his back then in about 30 seconds bang 6 kills and the vehicles can destroy the building no problem.


I wuv :inlove: C4 :inlove: best weapon in the game when used properly.

Ya I saw that pic in another thread - I can only hope to have this kind of luck w/c4 Shocked

I think my personal best is 4 or 5 Wink -- a far cry from Gizbotvas' 8kills from one c4 (that was 1 c4 right?). Anyways thanks for the inspiring pic !

ROFL!!!

If our team is owning and we have the other team down to one building, inevitably there are a number of engies inside repairing it as we go to town on it. So, what I'll do is run by the back door, near the MCT and chuck in a timed C4. (especially if it is a Refinery, as it is right by the MCT) IF we don't kill the building by the time the C4 goes off then I get some major boinkage in one shot! I think I got 6 at one time once. That is allways a lot of fun.

There was a time when I was playing with a brand newbie and he was learning how the game worked. I stuck a times c4 on him and then kept typing "tick, tick, tick..." When it went off he was like, "what happened?" And I just sat there and laughed and laughed!!!

Yeah, I saw someone get 14 kills at once... don't know how though. I suspected it was a cheat, but maybe he just tossed a C4 in the BSOD.

Speaking of c4 and glitches (some of u are already aware of this) : when ur out of c4 and u pick up a credits box weird things happen ! Yesterday it refilled my remote c4 for me (the active weapon) and another time I picked up a sniper rifle then the credit box and it gave me full ammo !

I believe that credit boxes will randomly give you either more credits or refill all of your ammo. I think I read this some place.

Yes....there is an "ammo Box" and a "Credit Box" according to peeps...but it is called the "Random Box" giving you either credits or ammo. I saw the name in always.dat for a skin setting Razz

I am on about somthing different to this tho lol Laughing

The person i saw do this got about 25 kills in a 50 player game which shoot him to the top of the ladder and the explosion was extremely extremly load...

Its a glitch that for some reason makes the C4 explosion take up the whole of the map. And kill everyone on the opposite team (i have never done this before tho i have tried) i might put something on my site about it when i transfer it over to my ISP's webspace i am on geocities at the moment......

i have only witnessed it a few times in the presence of a few perticuar people wether its some sort of hack/cheat i dont know and i somehow doubt this, it happened on the european server so most of you have poroberbly not witnessed it.

If you look closely at the yellow boxes, you will see a question mark on the side. You can either receive credits or weapons refills.

THANKS !! WOW I had no idea. I have a POS video card so even on the best settings my stuff still looks like crap in reference to texture detail !! Crying or Very Sad

This explains all those times I got boxes but didnt get credits !!

ps. I didnt really play the single player Confused

wow, im suprised more of you ladder people dont know that trick. Most likely the map that that 25 kills happened on was Field. This is the glitch, inside the nod HON is a spawn point INSIDE the wall. Its rare to spawn there, but if you manage to whip out your timed c4 and throw it BEFORE you re-respawn, you will kill any enemy unit not in a vehicle. I did it on the pits back in November (when i got my initial 3 month kick) and was accused of all sorts of things (aimbot, wallhack, lagbot even a point and kill bot or somethign) and was promptly kicked. I thought that was common knowledge. I think I will start a topic with known glitchs that the "clan people" have found so far...the ref wall hop, the engi blow up one building alone, the one remote c4 suicide (pointless but eh) the 2x damage glitch, the 0 damage bug (lol), the buggy bomb, invisible harvestors, infinite harvy points, b2b locations for all maps (islands, field, mesa, under, complex (sorta), walls flying. But then again...I might not Laughing

You can do this sometimes when you are looking at the outside. Say when two tanks collide and both of you lose your tanks and you sort of looking over the map from Heaven. Throw your C4 out.
Anything thing to remember here is, you will only spawn for a short time, you will be falling as well. Like you fell through the map.

/me looks at his score on screenie.....


w00t!!!! I'm #31! I remember that moment quite fondly. That timed C4 was on the very bottom of the MCT, where it couldn't be seen. Everybody had disarmed like 4 timed C4s on the MCT before that one, so we thought we were done as the last one went out, but no......BOOM! Even though I was plenty pissed, it was still pretty damn funny.
