Likewise, look for choke points a tank or jeep has to go through and plan to ruin someone’s day. Drop your dynamite around a flag and detonate it when the flag goes white for an almost guaranteed kill or three. Your dynamite is one of the single most destructive items in the game, so make as much use of it as you can. As a scout you can use the right bumper to lay out 9 sticks of dynamite in 3 stick bundles and create horrible death whenever you want by virtue of your plunger. The more you move around the less likely you are to be confronted by one or more vengeful dudes you recently ventilated.ĭo: Use your dynamite. As a rule of thumb, don’t spend more than two magazines in one place before moving on to a new spot. The longer you fire from a position, the more likely someone is going to come gunning for you. Give your infantrymen buddies warning so they can set up a bazooka ambush against that tank and they’ll love you forever.ĭon’t: Stay in the same spot. Not only do you make a good spawn point (as you should be far enough from combat zones to allow a relatively safe spawn and regroup) by virtue of being high up with a scope you will spot enemy movements long before they become apparent. It will present fewer shot opportunities, but opponents generally don’t search low for a sniper.ĭo: Stay in a squad. The scout suit’s top half will blend in, and as long as you remain stationary a roving eye won’t be drawn to you as a target, as you will blend in with the landscape behind you. Instead, plant yourself halfway up a hillside and crouch in tall grass. Even a Jeep’s M2 can pick you off from a fair distance with enough time, so presenting a target like this is a terrible, awful idea. And since there’s nothing behind you but skyline, everyone in the world can see you and shoot at you. Remember, even a non-fatal body shot can put an enemy out of action for several seconds while their health recharges and net you assist points.ĭon’t: Stand on the top of a hill. Spend some time hunkered on a hillside popping off rounds at a distant spawn point to get the feel for this, then revel in your ability to annoy the hell out of people from very far away.
Your bolt-action death cannon can literally hit a target halfway across a map if you aim and lead the shot properly. If you’re sniping a target you can sprint to in less than eight seconds, you’re doing it wrong. Rather, they are for the Hildens of Battlefield 1943, who feel scorned and dejected after hearing such fond, loving stories of it’s earthly delights and find themselves rolled like unsuspecting marks in a German red light district.ĭo: Stay the hell away from people. I might suggest that these tricks are not for you. Some of you may read these tips and tricks and scoff, noting how I fail to mention the exact hiding spot for sniping dudes at spawn X of Flag 2 in Map Zed.
For some this is running for five minutes, a quarter second of frantic death, then more running.įear not, for after days of mockery, I am here to help you. For some of you, however, this is not all joy and ‘splosions. Now, there are those among you who may have purchased Battlefield 1943 and known the patriotic joy that is found in murdering hundreds upon hundreds of pixelated Japanese people. Yeah, I’m just going to let that hang there for a moment.
