One of my favorite tactics in C&C Renegade was planting dozens of proximity mines all over the front of a jeep and driving torward a group of enemy soldiers. Just before I would hit them, KABOOM!!! Could work with the stealth quad, right?

I don't think that would be a really useful tactic. Even if you were stealthed, if you killed guys inside a base, how many could you get with the capacity restrictions the stealth armor places on you? Also suicide bombers are a political tactic, not a military one. Militarily suicide bombers have rarely been effective. Only the Japanese kamikaze pilots of World War II were somewhat effective, but not nearly as effective as trained pilots would have been. After all, the reason the Japanese had to resort to kamikazes was simply due to the fact that they were running out of well trained and experienced pilots.

No way! I think suicide bombings with quads would be an extremely effective way of destroying max suits! A couple of proximity mines on the front, then rush at it from behind...
Peice of cake really. The only problem is that you might not be able to plant proximity mines on vehicals.

Only the Japanese kamikaze pilots of World War II were somewhat effective, but not nearly as effective as trained pilots would have been.
If the Kamikaze hit its target (a ship) before getting shot down, it inflicted serious damage. They were arguably more effective than if the pilot were just shooting, because the US's only way of reaching Japan and striking was through its Naval vessels. Destroy the Navy, and you buy yourself some time, which is just what the **** were hoping for.
Naturally, it didn't work, and they got smoked. But, hey.
Oh, and, suicide bombing in PS would be a lame way to fight, so even if it were possible, they'd limit it as much as they could. There's absolutely nothing fun about some retard with a bomb running up to you and blowing up. It's fun for him, because he's a dick, but for the guys who get blown up, it's just irritating as hell.

So I was playing SoF2 one night and the map was Hong Kong Streets. I had climbed up onto a balcony and was looking for enemys and got board.
I saw one of my buddys run by and he was underneath the balcony I was on so I grabbed a grenade and just held it. At the last second I screamed "FOR ALLAH!!!!" over team speak and in chat and jumped off the balcony.
About the time I should of been landing on him he moved and I landed on some other guy. Well my little experiment with Suicide bombing worked and and I TK'd 2 people.
Everyone on TeamSpeak thought it was the funnyest thing, but for some reason the guy I blew up didn't see the humor in it :rolleyes:

Nah, Revolution, I wasn't calling you a dick. Only people who do nothing but ram their aircraft or jeep into you in BF1942, or would ever think of doing the little suicide thing you described above, where you run into a base and blow yourself up to kill other players, would count as a dick. After all, those kinds of people have absolutely no regard for other people when playing a game, and are willing to do anything to satisfy their most base and loathsome definitions of entertainment, despite the fact that to do their little dance requires them to step on the toes of others. So, no, my good man, I would never dream of calling you a dick, for I can sense your strong moral fibre, and your every post simply... oozes... integrity.

There are certain situations that might warrant a suicide run though. Can't really think of any off the top of my head but the need for one might arise in a game.
It is also a game so if you're getting bent out of shape because someone blows themselves up to take out some people you need to realize that you're taking it way too seriously. Not saying everyone should start suicide bombing but you can't let it ruin your fun. If they choose to do nothing but blow themselves up it's their choice no matter how stupid it is. :)

Mostly because the rest of the game is too easy. I used to get a roommate/friend on LAN here and we'd just jeep on some of the bigger maps. It's quite hillarious.
I think highest we ever got with it was about 22 jeep kills the both of us on one map though.

Let me clarify: The only way I find it disdainful to use a vehicle as a ramming weapon is if the person doing the ramming will very likely be killed. Running down infantry is perfectly fine in BF1942. It's stuff like ramming a jeep into a tank, destroying both vehicles, that make the game stupid. That very problem is actually why the devs made jeeps insta-kill to a tank if the tank gets a direct hit on the jeep.

There are reasons to go suiside, but not inside of bases.
Out on the field, a member of a group may find it necisary to detonate within a group of enemys in order to take a lot of them with him.
However, if the suiside only results in one kill, and is done repetatively in this maner, it is officaly being a dickhead in my book.
Use of this tactict would encourage people not to pack into small areas. Intelegent groups will likely move in a way that only one person would be killed by a suiside atack, and maybe another injured.
This can also be avoided by geting someone with Dark Light Vision to hunt down steathing kamakazies before they get too close.

If you're in a base and you're going to get killed why not suicide and take out a couple of guys. Die peacefully? or go out with a big bang?

It is essentialy useless inside a base because anyone you kill will respawn there, and anyone you injure can get repaired easaly.

2003-01-09, 10:05 PM
But my favorite tactic in BF1942 was to get a jeep and ram those truck things that were carrying people and tanks. First time playing, me and a friend kept doing that, but we'd eject the moment before the jeep hit the tank, as to not die. We'd also try to see if we could ram an airplane. The answer is yes.

You are missing the Banzi Charge from WWII.. Even if 1 person who is doing a Banzi Charge with a combat knife running towards 3 max armors or anything else with a gun is an insane maniac. The 10 seconds it would take to target the guy and cut him to shreds An infiltration suit person or a lot of other people would hopefully be able to flank the enemy because they are laughing at the guy with a combat knife running towards them and then he gets cut down.
A simple but possably an effective tatic :)
Might even work if the guy is holding a grenade.

But in situations where you are just vastly outnumbered this could be the one saving move that leaves the enemy unable to take a base. I mean I only rammed jeeps into enemy tanks when the teams were 1 to 5.
But I mean if there are around 4 or 5 people guarding a base, and 20 people come out to attack, if one of the guards rushes in, blows up several people and weakens the AMS or destroys it, the enemy will be forced to either retreat until they bring another one down and by that time you might get reinforcements.

Less time to dodge the grenade if it explodes right next to them right away. If you throw it it gives them time to react. If you run up behind them and blow up it gives them a little less time and you have the element of surprise with you.

They realize that they screwed up at the last second, and to get the last laugh, they try and kill themself and their attackers along with them. Virtually everytime this happens, you'll see the suicider issue an "lol" after the fact. Yep, any trained ape can ram a jeep into someone or blow themself and others up with a grenade, but these special people take pride in it.
And to the above posts which describe suicide kills as a sort of last resort, if you're in a situation where suicide killing is your only resort, it's very likely that you and your allies screwed up several times during the fight, or you're just totally outclassed. In either scenario, I'd recommend dying with dignity and figuring out how not to get yourself in that situation again.
But, just to ease the situation somewhat, using vehicles as weapons where you aren't jumping out at the last second, or you aren't killing yourself too, is fine. For instance, in BF1942 it's a good idea to use jeeps to conceal explosives. The tank will roll right by the jeep, not seeing the explosives underneath it, and then you detonate it, killing the tank and any enemy infantry nearby. This is a good way of using a vehicle as a weapon. Ramming it into the tank instead is really just a cheap, no-skill way of saying "I suck" to everyone in the game.

Just something I thought would go along just fine with your idea's Warborn. If you had some vehicles that were not need you could perhaps leave them outside unattended or even in the base if they storm it and just leave several mines near the vehicles. That way even if they win, you'll be making sure they keep paying for it.
BLuE_ZeRO
2003-01-10, 09:08 PM
If it's a last resort you've obviously done something wrong. Screw dying with dignity you take out as many people as you can in the process. This game isn't about class it's about conquering and killing. Having class is great but the bottomline is you need to kill your enemy by any means possible. Whether it be through suicide bombing or ramming your jeep into someone it doesn't matter. The object is to kill not make sure everyone is happy with the way they died.
This conversation is idiotic and pointless at best. Who the hell cares how someone got killed. They got killed and that's it, end of story. Doesn't mean the person who killed them was more skilled it just means they died. Quit bitching over how lame it is and just play the damn game. You don't like it watch your ass next time. If you can't spot a tank or a jeep heading at you your blind. If it's cloaked that's one thing but if you dont see an uncloaked vehicle you need to be more aware. As for someone running up behind you and suicide bombing watch your ass. Not going to save you everytime but you need to realize that people will be very underhanded and do some sneaky ass shit in very desperate situations most likely because they fucked up somewhere along the line. If you can take someone down with you more power to you.

Such would be CAMPING(Not You Carl, Fellow NC warrior) I am sure we are all aware what camping is and how it can slow a game down and make it NOT AT ALL fun for some of us in a game, and REALLY fun for some of us in a game.
But such a high spawn rate MMOG warfare game where you dont have to worry about money to get a weapon, not to mention no penalty but a few minutes of being MIA and go back into the battle, and it is a game, whatever tactics you use should be fine as long as you make it fun. For YOU and your IG or RL friends playing.
In AC I could not stand getting raped by Bloods all the time they seem to be everywhere. But I got my friends joined a guild, and woo hoo!!!! TIME TO A#$ RAPE Ourselves! And it was great! Even when we did die, I died with my fellow warriors.
Cheating I hate, maybe even ALL expoits. But Tactics that confuse, are not understood, baffle the enemy be it they have no clue what you did or are doing, whatever, now Thats Fun!
Its about IG friends, Fun, Kickin ass, getting your ass kicked, and being a bad ass player that the Vanu Scum FEAR!!!!(ops went to far on the Vanu/Raelians.

Also,
I'm not going to engage in a flame war with you warborn, tho it's painfully obvious that's exactly what you want.
You know, I'm really never one to say this, but Christ man, are you sure you have your head screwed on properly? I don't believe I even mentioned you prior to the post in which you called me an idiot, yet I'm the one looking for a flame war? Heh, alright bud, whatever you say.
I should be saying this to you (tho I haven't), not the other way around.
One thing about my "flames" is that I very rarely ever attack the person directly. I find it a rather flimsy way to argue, and really, it's not very productive at all. As such, I can guarentee you that I haven't insulted you directly my entire time here. I might have called Dio something, and I obviously called Revolution an idiot, but I don't recall ever saying anything to you.
So, tell me, what is it that I've said that's gotten you all mixed up like this? And no, you haven't hit a nerve or whatever. I'm genuinely curious, and would really like to find out where this hostility originated.

You'd be absolutely amazed at how annoyed players can get if they die, wait a couple minutes to fight again, spawn, drive out somewhere, and immidiately have someone crash a vehicle into them, killing them and their attacker without any fighting to be had. Just crashing, just dying, and another couple minutes of waiting to get back into the fighting. I'm not talking about the "right" or "wrong" way to fight. There aren't any rules that say you can't crash your vehicle into someone else. What I'm talking about is sportsmanship, and not being a selfish dick whose only concern is your own immidiate entertainment. There are other people playing these games too, and while I'm not about to advocate not killing people or whatever, you should conduct yourself in a way that'll make the game fun for you (real fun, not immature "hiding behind the Internet and being a jackass" fun) and the guys you're fighting. Otherwise, things get bitter, people start hating their enemies, and the game becomes something that no game should ever be (irritating, frustrating, and a conduit for your anger).

BF1942 Jeep ramming is stupid, but that is not the fault of idiotic players, it's the fault of idiotic programmers.

You know what, I don't care. Seriously, you're acting so screwed up that I don't even think it's worth seeing what you'd have to say anyway.

I agree. The tank should suffer minimal damage from the jeep, while the jeep should be destroyed. They made an extremely poor design decision with how jeep - tank collisions work.

It does take minimal damage, but you can put some mines on it.

Nah, the jeep will hit the tank, the tank will be barely scratched, and then the jeep blows up, destroying the tank, or at least severely damaging it. It's not the collision, it's the explosion that results shortly afterward.

Games are suppose to be fun. If they're not fun, there's a slight problem afoot. While the vehicle-crashing thing in BF1942 is/was the worst aspect of the game, in my view, it didn't ruin the game, but I generally end up dropping the game for a couple months after some guy on my team drives his jeep out in front of all your aircraft which are attempting to take off, or using grenades to try and blow you offer carriers so that you need to spend a few minutes swimming back up on it. It is a game, and when there are obvious conduits for people to be smacktards, things start being less and less fun -- which is not exactly a step in the right direction.

I'll tell you what everyone. This is what blows more than being killed, and having to travel back.
Asheron's Call. When you DIE, you got VP, meaning a good 10 Minutes at LEAST to work it off!(thats only one death)
If I could make a Suicide Run and only worry about the space between me and the battle, Oh HELL YEA!
Besides any really good battle should have a Mobile base near if not 4 of them surrounding the base you are attacking. You get killed, fine! Gives me time to walk to the kitchen, get some chips, and a beer! Take a few sips, eat some chips, and go kill some more!
PERFECT! Dont know how annoying it is to be in combat when you cant hit pause to take a leak or get a drink. The only waiting time for death is PERFECT!
