Agree/disagree?

By the way, I hope those statistics don't cause you guys to nerf the machine gun in the next patch. I was stoked to realise it actually had a practical application.

hmm never realized that the machine gun was that handy to blow up some1's base :D

and for the 'Foliagiering' problem to leave base, just place lots of mines and a few mines beside and cast a grenade on the far ones, activate bush, then u fly and u are invisible in sky :p

O = lots of mines
o = 1 mine

plan:

*you*
O
o
o
o <-- throw grenade at this 1 and cloak :p


anyways i shall give Foliagiering a go :p

Lol I just tried that and it worked perfectly XD. Great idea!

Anyway, it turns out you don't even need to uncloak and jetpack if you've fallen off a high cliff. Right before you hit the ground, uncloak, rocket the ground and then cloak again on landing and you won't take any damage at all, plus you're only visible for probably less than a second.

The explosion from the rocket IS a little obvious, but eh =D.

or you can just unbush the moment you hit the ground, there's a little known bug that lets you avoid fall damage that way.

Lol, that's so win!

And I never knew about that bug either. Thanks Vort!

I would go and test all this out, but the only server with anyone in it at the moment is [TBBC], and my game always crashes every time I try to enter that particular one =(.
