I dunno what you think is the most underused/underated character in-game, but I think it's the Officers.
Damn, I pwn with chainguns...you know? It takes like 2-3 seconds to kill a 1000-credit character. It's a little tough against a Mobius/Mendoza but you can still pwn em from a distance.
Even on servers where starting credits are 0, I wait till I get 175 credits and go on a killer rampage...when I return to base, my health is usually shot into the red and no ammo left, but I have an average of 8 kills. It's amazing...I have seen only a few other players doing that other than me. It's an awesome kill-whoring strategy.
If you got good aim, then try this strategy.
What ya think?

They're a bit too pricey for the actual damage they do. It's even more "spray and pray" than minigunners... Not really worth the money in my opinion.
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

but if you manage to even kill 1 500-1000 char youve done more damage with less than you bought. Oh and chaingun has horrendous rof and can hs people nonstop if you can aim good.

I agree, officers are perhaps the most deadly infantry at medium range when used properly. Snipers obviously massively outrange them, and up close shotguns and c4 dish out more damage.
I can rack up a lot of kills using just officers  and its a great feeling to walk into the tunnels on maps like field and mow down 3 or 4 snipers with an officer, get right on top of them and they don't have chance to get a clean shot on you before you have obliterated them, or at least heavily damaged them.

IIRC, a headshot from a chaingun is 50 damage. So they can kill the strongest infantry with just 6/7 headshots....

If your killing mobius and mendozas with chaing gunners like you claim, I suggest you find better servers to play on, cuz the guys your playing against pretty much totally suck.

I said it is "tough" to kill them. TBH, I am scared of the Volts when I am an officer. If I surprise the Mobius, then I can most certainly kill him. But if the Mobius find me first, then my officer balls are toast... but it's still possible to escape sometimes.
| NuNeGa wrote on Tue, 03 July 2007 05:23 |
officers are good, but 8 early kills(assuming you kill basic) =24 points, considering you have spent 175 creds on officer it doesnt really seem worth it to me
|
Like said before, I can aim...on some maps, I am officer throughout the game. So, it's a good deal.

Once a long time ago in Canyon, I pretty much went on a killer rampage from my base to GDI through the tunnel killing Engi's and soldiers.
And guess what? There was like 1 engi and 2 soldier coming into the tunnel from their base! haha...man did I catch them with the pants down haha! I killed them all within seconds and they all start to complain!
Total kills before I went for refill: 9
ROFL!

i agree it is very underrated. most snipers have no idea what to do when one pops around the corner right on top of them. and to see the look on people's faces when they are basic infantry and just got killed in about a second by an officer...priceless

Yeah lol...the thing is, if you are good with a chaingun and you manage to close in to a sniper's position, then that sniper is a dead man (unless he is really good). The Black Hand/Deadeye snipers are too easy to kill when you are like 2 feet away because it's hard for them to aim right.
So the good snipers always try to run backwards while facing you...all the while trying to get a good shot off. Important thing to do is to follow them and stay as close as you can to them. If they manage to get a good distance away, they have a better chance of killing you.

I'm just always that guy with the engi and later the hottie/techie, mining the base, repairing the base, repairing the vehicles and destroying the harvester 
That is until we score enough cash to buy orca/apache, or maybe a sniper. What ever I feel like
