another good tip, as i am a definate offensive player alot of the time, using the rocket jump, the one thing i find, are engineers SG's. in the same place that i just blew them up!!! eng's rotate the location of your SG's. will make a difference with attacking battlement jumpers!!

i think im revisiting an earlier post, but here it is again. last nite i was in a game where the same 2 people would try to walk off the battlements, get shot by 1 of 3 enemy snipers, then complain they couldnt get out of our base. USE OTHER MEANS PEOPLE. IF YOU CANT GET OFF THE BATTLEMENTS, GO THRU THE SEWER, OR RUN OUT THE LOWER ENTRANCE AFTER DROPPING DOWN THE GRATE!!! sheesh. use ur brain

I have a question, rather than a tip.

How come when you uber someone, sometimes a Engineer's sentry will push you back, but sometimes it won't?

Is it based on when you uber and when the sentry actually see's you, locks on and begins firing, or something else?

It usually pushes back, you notice this allot if you jump while ubered because the sentry will send the person flying.

Thanks Verge. I thought maybe it was effected by what you did. I guess not.

More than 2 snipers watching the bridge is somewhat of a waste (depending on skill levels involved, and if they're all up top or not.) Sniper is great for defense if you have twitch reaction times though, as I get a lot of kills watching the sewer too, from the edge of the hay room (when I hear a rush coming or happen to miss a group crossing the bridge.)

A sniper is just as useful as you make them. Usually 3 good snipers can make the other team give up on offense entirely. After you notice the flow of enemies has slowed, switch to something else and play offense (or try to get to the top of their sewer and snipe from inside their base

)
