Or . . . Corporal works . . . maybe I should just shoot for Corporal. How many of you guys are Corporals? By the way, congratulations Ryland, you the man.

Nice to see you here Tyro, I enjoy playing along side you. Not many of us are corporal yet.. Sheep, Haole, Elmo, and VR are super close though, I bet they will all hit it within a week. Check out bf2tracker.com and check out the stats pages... search for 69er and you can see us.. Feel free to bask in the glory of my 160 best round score... only #2 in the clan to Elmo who beat me by 3 Ryland- check out our Members section and get yourself on our clan list!

I cheated to get that score though Alex! You'll overcome it very soon I'd imagine. And on the Corporal thing, I'd already be there if not for the name change to ER.......sigh.
Jake, great to see you on the boards brother, keep up the posts.

Sup bro. good times last night... I made corporal but at a high cost. I have not cheated once but I found that sleep is overrated lol. Anyways there are several strategies depending on your skill set. For me flying the choppers or using the f-15 or it's mec equivilant is also effective. If the server is less populated then filling a blackhawk can easily get you over a 100 each round. I'm actually more into the chopper thing now cuz it takes a bit more concentration but if I get shot down then the rest of the map is dedicated to killing all pilots with a jet.
If flying is not your thing then do the lz or ez method of using tanks and apc's as much as possible. Be a squad leader so you can call for supplies when you get hit a few times and remember to use infantry to clear flags first if possible so c-4 is not stuck up your arse when capping. Then there's a really easy way but takes lots of patienece and that's being a support trooper. Medic or Support, heal and support your way to the leader boards.

Man, I have noticed Steve getting scores well over 100 in a copter... I'm so jealous! I really need to practice flying copters. Hovering at will is a feat that still eludes me.
My top score is like 120, but my average is around 50. I don't like getting killed so I'm probably just a little too careful about capping flags. I have noticed foot soldiers getting crazy scores, but their k/d ratio is something horrible like .40. I guess I'd rather have a higher k/d ration than overall top score.
I definitely need to work on my bombing too. My dogfighting skills are pretty good, but I'm far from getting 50-60 kills per map like Steve, VR, and 808Army do.
Anyway, Corporal is imminent for me but I'm still torn as to what kit I'll upgrade. I use Assault the most after Engineer, but the unlock has no grenade launcher. It's a toss-up between the Spec-ops and Medic guns right now.

Sheep, join me in a chopper anytime you wanna up your score. I agree with steve about the concentration levels of flying copters compared to planes. I have to admit to being quite a tank whore as well........love the 2+ k/d ratio. Sigh, I guess we are all just figuring out our favorites and will probably stick to them........

I am slowly gettng the hang of flying the attack copters, and I am decent at tank.. where I shine... TRANSPORT!!! You give me one of those hummers and the enemy doesnt stand a chance! Yes I realize that 1 good shot with a anti-tank pwns you.... but its not rare for loggy to roll up to a flag, take out 6 guys without blinkin, then cap the flag. Seriosly, that weapon takes a while to cool down, has amazing long and close rang accuracy, and 2 full blasts of it take down a full health attack chopter, and most chopters are hurt already... My Transport stats... Kills- 604 Road Meat- 68 Deaths- 292 KD Ratio- 2.3 Hours- 10.97 I've ranked 30 hours on anti-tank kit, by far my most... after that, my "kit" is transport the next closest is medic..

Well thank you for the advice fellas. Uhmm . . . I only use assault . . . and someties anti-tank or sniper. It's a noobie habit I never got out of. But I do believe myself to be in advanced proficiency as an assault. It takes usually three soldiers back to back to take me down. I'm 65% of the way to Corporal . . . why the hell did they make this game so hard to rank up? I'm going off to college! Do they think I'll have time to play this game up in College?! Oh wait . . . yes, yes they do . . . because I will . . .

Going off to college, eh? Pray that your college internet connection doesn't limit bandwidth provided to online games (as happened to one of my friends). That poor sap Speaking of college, I'm bored as heck in my assembly language lab. 9:35am... this could perhaps be the longest day, ever. Did I mention it's a mac lab? And that I hate macs? And that most of the buttons on the right side of the keyboard (ie right Shift) are mysteriously malfunctioning? Quick, somebody feed me some Battlefield 2 before I go insane. Puump iit iintoo my veeeins!!!!11!!1!one!11!!

Anyone know if the Support unlock is any good? As it stands, the standard Support weapon sux azz. You might be able to hit the side of a barn with it if you right-click and take your time. I hardly ever play Support, but it might be the weakest kit after the Engineer and could very well use the upgrade.

Sheep, if youre not happy with the stock weapon, you will not be happy with the PTK. Its basically the same accuracy, with more damage but slower rate of fire. The benefit to the Support is that you rarely need to reload. Also, its surprisingly accurate while prone with short bursts. Its also good in Rambo situations. I like to joke with VR about the PTK being a "squad killer". If you run into an organized squad, you would have a serious chance of wiping them all out.

I normally just play for the heck of it and dont pay attention to my score. but crap, my score sux! Guess I better play the flag/chopper whore for awhile. I can fly the chopper perfectly, its just the not getting shot down part that I find very difficult.
