Hey guys

Just picked this title up. Looking forward to getting in on some action with TG. Any advice/tips/info/random nonsense I should know before diving in?

Re: Hey guys

Get used to playing INF first then work your way up. Sometimes Air is easier, but until you get the controls down that would be my advice.

Re: Hey guys

Heh... I have avoided air like the Plague for some reason... I love Armor and Inf.. but it depends on the map (as in most games)... Use Special forces air drops to go behind enemy lines as spys.. Just make sure you tell them to hold fire... sit in the trees and save up points for the big damage strikes... Good stuff...

Re: Hey guys

Learn the shortcut keys. For example: X changes your unit formation between line and box formation, and space takes you to your drop zone. Don't use heavy artillery, you will probably get yelled at by teammates. As infantry, use as much cover as possible, trees, buildings, and some roadblocks that are on city maps. Also, at the start of the round, it can help if you wait those extra 15-20 seconds for more reinforcement points to come so you can get that extra unit (4th heavy chopper/heavy tank). It really does make a huge difference.

Re: Hey guys

Inf rules all roles!

Seriously though, it is tough to beat on most maps.

Re: Hey guys

Yeah, I'm learning to love the AT Infantry unit. Forests + AT = Carnage

Re: Hey guys

I am thinking about picking this up this week. I played during beta but that was like last summer and kept wishing could play with TG folks instead of some of the .. umm .. errr .. not so tactful beta testers

Re: Hey guys

I'm like Ashenhart. I beta tested and am picking up the title real soon. Is the server very busy? I noticed it's password protected (unlike the PR server).

Edit: Just read to the end of the server thread. Bummer. What servers do you guys frequent?

Re: Hey guys

I just randomly hit up servers when I'm doing multiplayer...though I've been putting way more time into the single-player campaign which is also wicked fun.

Once you join the TG "clan" all the clan mates are listed in a buddy list and you can join into servers off their screen names. Pretty neat feature.

Re: Hey guys

I really only play about one night a week. I loved the SP, make sure you play it to completion! If it is too fast for you, you can get that patch to lower the game speed, if that is for you.

Re: Hey guys

Bou...send me a PM or something next time you're on. Pubbing it alone is tough!
