    Being German helps a lot. You can yell around and people think "of course he does, he is German!".


    What is your current Sausage, Potatoe and Kraut level? It needs to be > 9000 to spread around real fear.

    Actuality I was looking for the activation/emp range the mine. A vehicle hitting a mine sets it off and vehicles running over the top of one but what about passing close to one. When laying a pattern, I use a lazy “W” unless the gap requires all five mines. Will a vehicle passing a meter to the left or right still set the mine off?

    I think you actually have to touch the EMP mine in order to set it off.

    I think you should watch the videos from this guy to improve your SL powers.

    I will keep that in mind. My current Sausage, Potato and Kraut level is about 6000.. how do i improve it?
    And what do you think of the BAUR. caused of my sucky ping i try to avoid CQB. I found myself pretty comfortable with the BAUR cause i go more for the mid-long range fights + some sweet placed rockets.

    And finally.. how do i combine some stealthy ninja moves with brutal pirate-strength

    Re: The Oracle: Ask Lyra A Question !

    Here's another rocket-related question for you:

    How much 'drop' is there on a rocket at different ranges, and how can I use the notches on the sight to get accurate rockets first time? That's phrased pretty badly, but what I'm trying to ask is: At what ranges do the rockets hit the target at each horizontal line on the rocket sight?

    Thankyou for your answers to my previous question.

    Baur is just what it is. Itīs horrible close range and anyone telling you "you just gotta learn the recoil" should be slapped with a pair of pink gloves. Itīs good at mid-long ranges on single shot.

    I donīt like it very much since anything I cannot mow down close range usually should be easily rocketable. I feel with my increased ping Iīd rather go for a 900RPM rifle. (Krylov, Voss)

    I think many people chose the Baur because they got bored with the other Rifles.

    Thatīs actually a tough one. I never pay attention to the notches and just have a feeling for it.

    But of course TG delivers. Property of Jackaleel:

    The advanced SL beacon can glitch out. It sometimes will just activate the time shortening even if you never had a beacon to begin with.

    Your Squadmembers will "die" in 12 seconds and then be dead 3 more seconds. This is effectively stealing 3 seconds off each revive timer.



    But there is rly nothing you can do about it once unlocked. Itīs just annoying. I never unlocked it tho. Always kept it as Field unlock.

    Re: The Oracle: Ask Lyra A Question !

    I ran some tests on it awhile back, the last NS SL unlock halves the counter after unrevivable death only when the spawn point is your green dot (leader or beacon) upon death. The counter does not get halved if you originally have it set to spawn on a flag, then switch it to the squad leader, you have to already be set to spawn on SL's dot for the timer halving to take effect.

    Just to reiterate, this only cuts in half the unrevivable timer. If you see "You have been critically wounded." You're timer is not halved, and you're still revivable. If you see "You have been killed." You're remaining time IS halved, and you're not revivable.

    It's great on heavy armor maps like Suez, or for gunship squads because death in armor is unrevivable thus your spawn time should be halved, but I've never actually tested this myself. Should be easy to test, I'd love to help but my comp's busted atm =(.

    It is usually when you suddenly stand there with 99 health and donīt know where you took damage from. It was the cold deadly stare from your disturbed teammates.

    Iīm related to a guy in the stoneage who hunted animals down by himself with a spear to eat them.

    Does that mean I can do it, too? No...

    Does that mean it can be possible? Hell yes

    Baur is actually very good close range, I don't know what planet you are on Lyra!
