Tips and Tricks for BBC2

Pretzel · Posted: Sat Jan 30, 2010 8:56 am Post subject: Tips and Tricks for BBC2

Please add any good tip or tricks you come across:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Hit Enter, while alive, to bring up the squad menu.

2. While planting or disarming the cap points, you can still fire, reload, etc without interrupting the process

EDIT: You can still look around while you're arming and disarming the bomb. You don't have to look directly at it.

3. When you fire a sniper rifle, if you hold down the fire button you will continue to look thorugh your scope. This will allow you to see where your bullets are hitting if they didnt hit your target.

4. The cap points have hit points. If the defending team is guarding a point really hard, park a tank on a hill and shoot at the cap point until it blows up or you destroy the building it is in.

5. You can access your parachute from any height that would normally hurt you.

6. The stationary missile launchers are guided. After you fire you have some control over the rockets flight path.

7. Think outside the box. Some explosions can kill people on the other side of a wall. Red boxes, red barrels, Engineer RPG and stationary AT all have the explosive power to do this. The rifle mounted greanade launcher does NOT.

8. Your knife is more than just for killing. It will cut through chainlink fences just as easy as it cuts through a door. Why go around an obstacle when you can cut through it?

9. The engineer repair tool can be used for more than just repairs. It will damage enemy vehicles and can even be used to kill enemies in melee range.

10. "You can use your repair tool to make little holes in barricades or walls and use for shooting and coverage"

Here's the other side:

1. Pistols have way to much power and very little to no bullet drop.

2. Recon w/C4 and the explosive and increase ammo unlock can put 6 packs on the objective and take it out themselves.

3. C4 can still be use to jihad objectives.

4. Seems like the RPG is more distructive then the Missle. 1 RPG with the right unlocks seems to be able to take out armor. Shouldn't be able to do this.

5. Still feels like I'm running in water and they could tune down the wobble when you run.

6. Nasty surprise is the 40mm grenade. People are using it for point blank attack. 5 feet away and boom, your dead but they take no damage. I'm sure this is different if friendly fire is on but if you can blow yourself up with the stationary missle by hitting the fence then you should take damage from the 40 too.

7. Need a better way to know how badly hurt you are, how little ammo you have and how fast you're healing and receiving ammo. The little numbers in the right don't work for me. I'm concentrating on what is happening in the game to much to pan down and read numbers.

8. Why do all the new games have to play with your screen when you get hurt? Slow me down fine, but take away vision where you're only seeing 1/4 of what you normally would be able to anyway is BS.

My 2 cents.

You spawn on another person in your squad by clicking their name in the squad window before you respawn, or by clicking their icon (will be green) in the mini map window above the squad list. This screen pops up every time before you respawn. If the names of everyone in the squad are grey, they're all dead.

Yes. You can cap a point w/o using the console. Take the first objective on the map that's in the building (not the pit) -- you can take this by shelling the building enough with a tank or knocking it out with explosives. You don't have to use the console if you can topple the building housing an objective. You may even just be able to destroy the objective with enough explosive hits (ie: like the one in the pit on the first cap points). I haven't verified this 100% yet, but I think i've seen objectives taken before w/o the building being toppled or the timer being set / count down. I think the console has a health bar that once brought down to zero, the cap point is taken.

Don't get me wrong--it's not a bad idea sometimes to put a few holes in the wall as defense to keep someone planting exposed, but for an offensive team working aggressively just to topple the building--probably best not to help them.

Understood. As I said I thought the objective was to prevent the lighting of the bomb not blowing up the building. Thanks!
