Heroes and Generals

Not always, sometimes a tank is okay cover for rushing an objective. I'm more annoyed by how 8/10 players don't get the idea of going for objectives, rather than fighting uselessly towards them. Capture church? Rush the fuck inside and then fight, not camp some street outside.

Also, it's "obvious", not "oblivious".

Yeah I kinda haven't played this for a couple weeks now apart from occasionally moving my assault team, got really bored of the huge amount of players that seem to be mildly retarded at least.

There is an easy way to overwhelm enemies: gather in teamspeak, even if my team is in a huge disadvantage in pretty much everything - communication decides a lot. We should try it, a few people from crpg community play, worth trying. I can lend my teamspeak for these purposes: mercenaries.pro

Dave, post a time for when people should gather up in ts and go kick some butt, we are all used to teamwork more or less from strat and crpg - an occasional "shieldwall" order is the only thing that can go wrong really - im up for it, right now I have problems getting into the game for some reason though.

If you are currently on German side, i'm up for some TS action now and then. Just bought myself an MP40, love it

Is recon worth it? Do I get a free sniper rifle once I join its branch?

[[ptx]]

I don't think so. Too many recons with standard BA rifles or even SAs.

Better question - can you equip and use a scoped rifle, if you stay with infantry?

[Tibe]

I think so. All u need to unlock it is a ribon afterall. No indication that you cant use it when you are infantry. Also read in some forums that some guys do have it equiped on their inf.

[[ptx]]

If that is so, what is the benefit of going recon class? Slightly harder to see due to different uniform?

[Tibe]

According to the wiki they "can move in enemy occupied areas". Dunno what the hell is that supposed to mean. Cause I seem to be able to walk everywhere. Damn, this game for not having a proper wiki.

[[ptx]]

I think that is for recon battle groups. I'm more interested in recon class ingame.

[DaveUKR]

You don't get a free sniper rifle. And to say more: it's expensive as hell and you need upgrades for it as well. So don't go recon unless you have ~200k of credits

[Sniger]

screw recon regardless

[AntiBlitz]

as an infantry player you have the ability to unlock the sniper rifle, though you must get the appropriate ribbon.  If you decide to become a recon, you get access to the classes sniper rifle and the anti-personnel mines, which are normally locked until the ribbon is completed.  If you decide after your trial period that you no longer wish to be a recon, the sniper rifle is then taken away due to your character not having the proper ribbon permissions, you essentially lose the 200k you spent on the rifle.  Other then the fact that the recon gets a pretty cool vehicle, a better uniform, and quicker access to its gear, its not much worth it.  Though, i have one of every class anyways, so you will be getting one eventually anyways.

Well now this game became more or less playable for me, which is good!
