Read title, i'll kick it off with one...

When flying in a dogfight, hold elevate at all times, being above your opponent helps alot.

Ok, your turn next.

if you see a max* approaching, and you suck, RUN.

snipers can look at only 1/8th of their normal vision at a time, and more often than not ignore all but one person. make sure you aren't that person, and remember that melee booster will take out reinforced with 2 hits.

Never repair a vechcile from the front or back... once a vanguard hit my sunderer from the back while I was repairing it, this caused my sunderer to jolt forward and crush me, killed by my own vechicle

Also another hint for a sunderer, they're not invincible and never drive through an enemy base which is fully guarded, with a full squad in the sunderer, it's funny afterward though after you get blown up by swarms of rockets and bullets

Yesterday some vanu were holding the cc, I ran in with a sweeper with AP in, got point blank to a max that was standing on the cc, and started whaling on him. It was so funny cause everyone was running away afraid of the lashers. I surved with 9hp and no armor

My tactics, use anythign you can as cover and ALWAYS use som esort of splash damage projectice at medium/long range, unless youre a sniper

Ive NEVER not ONCE used the sweeper.... well im nc though. And i got heavy assault fairly early on.

another tactic: if you are a sniper on a hill, you may be sniped as well. in between shots when your are loading move around, it will decrease your chances of being sniped yourself.

Its amazing how many people forget this because it is obvious.

Lol yeah some idiots don't watch out for you, I try and brake sometimes and they get out of the way, but once I start up again they run infront of me and I run them over. it's almost like they want me to run them over, but hey at least it's fun to hit a few speed bumps while going through a base .

When repairing a tank or other vehicle, switch to third person and toggle darklight; helps to see if someone wants to either steal or blow up your ride; or for that matter, whether some cloaker is going to kill you.

Audio amp and advanced targeting can be used together in a vehicle at the same time, without stamina drain.

Okay, honest tip here. When placing mines at doorways, don't place them as close as possible. If an enemy walks out of the door, the mine will detonate, but the door's barrier will absorb all of the explosion. Set it a few inches back.
