Often, beacons can only be taken out practically from a distance to minimize casualties. Cue rockets and evil Bommando laugh.

To be honest the answers you gave me were not what I was expecting. I have flipped a buggy over friendly mines. Some how my axles got locked in one.. and it flipped into com tower

I only seen a friendly APC move the motion mines around. I never seen anything like flipping a FAV over them.

Sometimes when you walk over RDX it makes a beep sound. Very mysterious, too.

Hmm. I'll have to test this. To BELGRADE!

**flik2142** · 02-07-2009, 12:43 PM

this thread is epic...some of that info is awesome, thanks to all for the questions and of course Lyra for the answers!

APC ramming motion mines...reviving clipped bodies...groping people's asses with right-click grenades...

some real priceless ideas here! thanks!!!

So this doesn't happen every time? Would be rather useful when you don't have to see your rdx when you are waiting some1 to walk into them...

Dear Lyra,

What places can you acess by jumping on a supply crate that would be impossible or impractical to access by other means?

By a well placed Supply Crate you can hop over the boundary structures of some of the Camp G catwalks. I marked them with black circles and you can access the red marked catwalks.

Dear Mr. Lyra the mysterious one,

If a SM disconnects or leaves the squad during the round, are the points he accumulated while in the squad still counted? Is the same true for when they join the squad, are all of the points are transferred, or are just the ones (S)he got during the time they are a member the squad counted?

Also, how do you pronounce your name? (Not Lyra, Lyramion.)

With utmost thanks,
|TG| Lonewolf174

Basically the ending screen of the squads shows the points of the people that were in the Squad when the tickets reached 0. If you d/c or leave the points won´t get shown or added. If someone joins 1 second before the end of the round all his points will be counted in.

Idk how to pronounce my name in English rly

A question one of my friends was curious about: When your score per minute is calculated, does it include the time you spent at the revive countdown? Or does it only count time during which you're spawned and mobile?

If you are revivable you are still in the game and active. So the time for the SPM keeps ticking.

You can easily notice that you can still pull up the minimap as a Squadleader and place orders on it when you wounded. But you cannot place new orders when you are KILLed or not spawned in.

I was just playing around with these routes. Are you sure it's possible to place a crate on the bottom-most route (ie the lowest black circle on this map)? You have to drop the crate just below the desired point, and because this area is out of bounds, you cannot do so. Am I missing something?
