shooting players on movers


(bani) #1

on railgun, trying to shoot anyone inside the tug is useless. even though you are aiming perfectly, your bullets never seem to land on the player inside, instead hitting the tug itself.

trying to throw nades inside is pretty useless. i’ve never ever seen anyone successfully do it from the side, only the front or back.

pretty much the only effective weapons against anyone inside the tug are flamethrower and panzerfaust… this doesnt seem right to me :bash:

You re right: flamethrower works perfectly to stop the tug driver…
I like to stop the tug this way … :smiley:

And when you re the tug driver, flamethrower works perfectly to stop ennemy who run after the moving tug :smiley:
IMHO flamethrower is useless almost everywhere else on this map.

But to keep the thread in its original direction, you re right it’s very difficult to kill tug driver with SMG or nades … Perhaps this is the way SD wanted : the tug driver must be hard to stop ? Except with flamethrower or panzerfaust.

whereas tank driver at mg never live more than 10 secs.

I hope you mean through the front windows of the tug, because shooting people through the side doors is really easy…

Grenades (through the side doors) are possible, but I find that I have to lead way more than I expect to.

i find that 80% of the shots do not land through the side doors, and I notice the same thing of people who try to shoot me. the only way to reliably shoot the person on the tug is to jump on, something that is also quite difficult.

shooting people through the front windows is pretty easy, though they tend to duck after the first shot :smiley:

and as i have said, i’ve never seen successfully anyone throw a nade through the side doors. only through the front or back windows.

the FT has become my favorite weapon on this map, because it is so effective at stopping the tug.

I love using the flamethrower ridding the trains. I find the best way to use the flamethrower is to shoot out little spurts of fire while ridding so whoever is trying to catch up gets enough to go down and not use up all the flame in the process. I always use the flamethrower to stop the train also.

Flamethrowers are also good on radar to capture the forward bunker.Also the map with the beach flamethrowers work well to kill people firing out the forward bunker or they can be effective when entering the building. The tricky part is getting there.
