    Yes, I have given up on the drone because it is too much risk. Can't have your SL spawn point dying on you when ever he wants to take a picture!

    I never use drones. It's too obvious for the enemy to figure out who's the squad leader. I just use the beacon. But I don't squad lead often. I don't like it. Edit: I'm not any good at it.

    I gave up until I found the trick to deploy the drones. Look way up at the sky then deploy. Hasn't failed me yet.

    Re: Drone Surfing

    No no no! you have to take 2 steps backward, then fire 2 shots from your pistol, knife kill Bommando, then you can use your drone without worry.

    Heh, I heard about 7 different ways to to make a drone not explode
    The soldier formerly known as, Eroak.


    From the TG Primer: 2) Create an environment where there is
    mutual respect for your fellow gamers     and where all members
    would be working together to advance the enjoyment of their hobby.

    I was squad leading last night for a couple hours and only used the drone. I used your advice and looked up at the sky before deploying it and worked everytime. Thanks for the tip.

    I was thinking you could only use them during the rising of the second moon in the house of Aquarius, when the first frost lands on the north facing trees...

    Yeah my drones now bang me in the head and I commit suicide serverwise.. Good fix against exploiting the drone but I usually run away when I deploy the drone from it breaking my helmet lol

    What I do know is that the exploding drone usually has something to do with the Terrain you are on. Beeing on the maps Ground Terrain usually makes it work while beeing on or in some object like the Upper Base in Cerbere Landing will blow it up always.

    Re: Drone Surfing

    If you look up at the sky while you deploy the drone it will work fine. Since I have been doing that I have not had it blow up a single time no matter where I am.
