Having played the game for over a week now a few things are becoming readily apparent.

1. There are WAY too many snipers.
2. The majority of people seem obsessed with charging at and capturing bases.

Since we can't change number one, perhaps we should do our part to change number two. The inherent problem with the base captures is that it can lead to seemingly unwinnable firefights with no real accomplishment. How many times have you fought for the same piece of ground for 30 minutes?

I was thinking a bit about last nights match so here's a little change up I'd like to see us try as a group. Two me it's appealling because it's tactical and will allow us to work more closely as a group. I'd suggest we set up two fireteams with at least four guys in each team. You have a least one medic in each group, preferably two. An engi with stingers and gunners or riflemen would make up the remainder of the team. I personally think that every team should have a gunner just for the suppression capability. If we can get more than 8 guys then we just keep adding teams.

Next we go look at the map. It's pretty easy to figure out where the enemy and vehicles are going to be coming from. Based upon the terrain, we could pick a primary point and set up some ambushes. We could also set up a secondary point as a fallback in case we need to retreat and regroup. We'd probably need to switch periodically just so our position didn't get compromized. One or two guys act as spotters with binocs and the rest of us just wait to strike.

What do you all think?

The average smacktard on a server is just going to grab a vehicle and drive straight to the nearest battle. As a unit, we can make sure they never get there?
