Walk rather than ride jeeps?

Caslon · 10-16-2005, 11:40 AM

"Because one tank shell can destroy jeep". That was one reply when I asked
during game why they hell ppl don't mount up.

Other times,
I sit there beeping my horn right next to a guy walking to "mount up".
He'd rather walk miles than get there in a few moments.

There are so many like this. So I drive off alone and attempt to cap flag
point alone. I can at times...alone, but some help would be nice.

Ok fair enough, but whats your point !?!

Fishfinger · 10-16-2005, 05:24 PM

Happens to me as well
Maybe I'm lazy but i dont want to walk anywhere

I'd be in the jeep with you

I dont know man, I see some guy pull up in some sumbitch honking his horn and shit. If I do get in its almost certain that he's going to run into an inaminate object or something.

Most likely lonewolfs that don't wanna hop in an occupied vehicles. I hop in vehicles every time. I hate the pricks (they can clearly see people running towards his vehicle) that just take off by themselves.

Or what kills me the most is the REALLY ignorant pricks that hop in a chopper by themselves to just jump out over a flag. Not only do they usually die, but they waste a perfectly good chopper in the process.

i hate it when i am honking at a guy and saying mount up, he just sits their mocking me, and i get hit with a tank shell. makes me want to just leave every time.

K_Shizzle · 10-16-2005, 09:52 PM

I just don't like jeeps they are so obvious. I would rather walk with my squad and set up an ambush than drive wit em and be blown in one shot.

jackbauer06 · 10-16-2005, 09:56 PM

you wouldn't like that if a tank came rolling over the hill and you are all medics or something. i would rather take the chance of running with a buggy.

K_Shizzle · 10-16-2005, 10:45 PM

like i said, ambush hide in cover and chuck grenades from all directions. Quite often i find the tank driver jumps out and runs to find the person it is coming from and bam. Dead person and free tank

I think Hummers/Jeeps need more armour. Right now both the Jeep and the Buggy and 1 hit kills from a tank. Even thou most of the time a AT rocket doesn't kill a jeep, it still makes you have to bail out before it explodes.

K_Shizzle · 10-16-2005, 10:55 PM

yeah and the hummers also need tows and/or anti-air thingies

Rambo_Medic · 10-17-2005, 12:52 AM

We need...

EVERYWHERE!

jackbauer06 · 10-17-2005, 01:34 AM

annnddd strong anti tank rockets from the infantry. definitly, in real life, the proper placement takes it out in just a few hits, maybe just one. like in the tracks. would be awesome if the tracks could be disabled, crippling the tank except for its attacking. or visa-versa

Caslon · 10-17-2005, 02:40 AM

At least that "refrigerator on wheels" jeep can take a shoulder TOW and keep going.
One tank shell SHOULD and does kill jeeps, forget about more armor.

Thats actually gonna be on the Special Forces Exp. I saw it and thought...oh hell yes.

I think hummer and buggy armor is fine. They handle small arms fine. To say they suck because they take 1 tank round and blow up is cray. I mean IT IS A TANK round for f@#$s sake.

K_Shizzle · 10-17-2005, 08:31 PM

The only thing i have found wrong with the buggy is that its very hard to kill the top gunner. I was right next to the gunner pumpin my DAO into him and he just stood there and took it, then blew me to pieces with his 50cals of firepower.

Trident · 10-17-2005, 09:01 PM

Ive noticed that too. It is the same for people in the stationary AA or TOW positions.

grim reaper · 10-17-2005, 09:12 PM

That guy has realy realy long legs.
