fetchystick

agreed, sometimes I just want to dumb fire all day.

Keep the green crosshair for teammates, the crosshair needs to stay gray when pointed at enemies until you are in range. Without rangefinding, a lot of people would be completely hopeless.

*The dust settles, leaving fetchystick alone in a tunnel full of dead noobs* My experience so far has been trying to teach newer players the basics. Many people find frontline repair to be quite fun once they try it, even more once they realize how OP it is. Leading proper attacks, telling my team to buy arty instead of buggies and flames, Being sneaky instead of attacking everything. The noobs are plenty, but they'll learn given time. Probably my proudest moment so far was walking out of the nod powerplant on goldrush as an ordinary soldier, seeing 3 enemies crouching trying to sneak into the base, heads all lines up, and just owning each one. Good times. Brings me to another point, do be patient with the noobs, there are a lot of tricks they don't know about. We should probably compile a list somewhere.

I fee like you may be new to renegade, TC. I'll help you out. All nod units are specialized, like the other guy said. You need to be a good judge of the situation and buy the right characters/vehicles. Flame tanks are very good against buildings, but just one tank won't accomplish much. If you have control of the field and you roll 2 or 3 flames into their base, there is a good chance that you'll get at least one building. Stealth tanks are invisible when you're on GDI. They're only visible at close ranges or when fired upon. Stealth tanks are similar to the flame in the sense that you can sneak 2 or 3 into a base for some massive damage. Tanks aren't always meant to be good against infantry with their main cannon, that's how the game is. You can still crush infantry, but they have a timed C4. Infantry are meant to be strong, that's why a single mid-tier infantry class costs as much as a tank. Overall, you'll learn how to adapt to the strategy and weapons. It's a lot more teamwork and strategy-based than other FPS games. Also, flame tanks will rip light armor to shreds, so if you can close the distance on an MRL, you can do some real damage.
