I will occaisonally use it for defense, like "mine" an approach to a base with it. Most of my kills are from just running around like a loon after vehicles though, hence my Distinguished Anti-Vehicle thingy too I guess.

Its all about angles of approach with vehicles, if you keep out of their peripheral vision it seems not many people check their outside view. I've followed tanks around half of atacama desert before i finally catch up with them. Even funnier when the engy gets out to repair and you get the multikill as well.

Waiting on a corner and just slipping 2 packs on as they drive by is always fairly effortless too, for the lazyier recons amongst us. Oh yeah, forgot, I play Recon now for the spotmines, awesome little things, toss em everywhere. I've also manged to unlock the entire recon kit with six sniper kills, so yep, recon too can be useful for other things besides sniping.

No, I think he's assuming that most OCAU forum members are able to find a better outlet for their frustration than team killing.

They should implement this...

At every planted MCOM, if you are within a 30 meter radius, but out of a 5 meter radius when it blows, you die!

Brilliant idea! Make those numbers 25 and 2 and it would be right.

Don't understand why more Recons don't do the same - it's free points, man!

My standard kit these days is recon, shotgun, slugs, c4. Plant C4 on mcomm while arming it, throw a motion mine on the spot, back off a bit and wait for some unlucky soul to try to disarm, det, fresh motion mine, charge in and defend it. If I fail I've at least dealt some good damage with the bombs. I mostly play rush or squad rush.

A fun thing to try if you like playing engineer. Throw AT mines all over the MCOMM. Deals awesome damage and gives you some objective points if someone throws a nade anywhere near the mcomm.

Haha yeah, forgot about bullets setting off both landmines and C4. Love a dollar for every C4 kill I have got that I had no clue about. Leave C4 somewhere, go do other stuff, someone eventualy shoots it and sets it off for you.

Flipside of that is dying BECAUSE someone shoots it.

Sucky part of Recon is running out of spotmines, and trying to mime to the nearest Assault guy that you would pretty please like some ammo?

Whats the international sign language for give me some stuffing ammo you dumbass bastard???

No, it doesn't - but it means if you're trying to "do the right thing" and defuse the MCOM when it's beeping, and it blows up in your face, then you don't die - while everyone else who was in the area is now dead.

Easy way to get Medic points - go up and "try" to defuse MCOM, wait for it to explode, then run around rezzing everyone that died from the explosion
