PS. Driver tries to get back to base.If shot down, he/she helps one of the engi teams.

Its a simple strat, but no one uses it.One Hotwire works too, but theres a bigger risk that it will fail, and it will cost you money.

If there is 4 remote c4's on the MCT, the biulding should explode, if you put the timed on first, by the time you detonate the remotes, the timed will detonate in about 15seconds

yes I have, and like I said, BY THE TIME YOU PUT ALL YOUR C4 DOWN AND DETONATE THE REMOTE C4, THE TIMED WILL HAVE 15SECONDS LEFT,AND IN WHICH CASE, WILL MOST LIKELY TAKE SOMEONE ALMOST THAT LONG TO GET THERE.THEN THEY HAVE TO GET BY YOU AND DISARM IT WHICH IS BLOODY IMPOSSIBLE TO DO IN 15SECONDS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The buildings are repairable outside! <new tactic>

You get the best transport heli driver to drive 4 engis,(engis must be the best at blowing up structures by themselves.), and drop 2 at each biulding. Together they have 6 c4, which is more than enough. Put the 2timed c4 on, then the 4 remote.DETONATE, and if it doesn't destroy the biulding, make sure no one repairs it until the timed c4 blows.

Well if you don't see this tactic used, you should stop playing on the n00b server...

And this very tactic was used against me on SoL's server. Not sure where the rest of my team mates were, but I managed to blow up GDI's tiberium refinery and yet GDI managed to buy two 2 APCs with two hotwires to visit our base. There's no way I can defend against two hotwires in two buildings and we lost both.

And yes, you should only trigger your remote C4 when the timed C4 goes off. If the other team hears that their power plant is being attacked, you can be sure that every hotwire and 1000 point character will be ready to run to the PP to chew you a new hide!

When we are on the losing side i fight and repair, when on the winning side i use my money to buy a transport chopper or APC and an engi and i make sure it gets full and i move ppl around.

Once damaged i return to base to find the engis who want a trip to the enemy fixing me.

I only 3 times have been shoot down, once by the Ob once by the AGT and once some ****ing engi placed C4 in my chopper

But im realy great when it commes to transport it doesnt get points but hey you do a verry buig deal to your team and that whats the game about

Yes it's better, when attacking Nod base, to put 2 people in 2 apc than 4 people in 1...

You can do this too :
A med tank rushing ahead on the Nod base, then followed by an apc full of hotwires/engy

Worx well as Nod too. When people want to do a flame tank rush => buy an apc and follow them. When they are burning a building, choose an other one and destroy it. You ll certainly be alone and safe.

Sheesh, calm down. You're wrong anyway. It takes a Hotwire/Tech almost exactly 7 seconds to place all their C4 (and they have one timed more than engies) so by waiting a bit longer than 20 seconds before you detonate the C4 you get the optimal result. I'm guessing an engineer would need about 5 seconds to place all their C4. If you blow the remotes right away, the other team will have 25 seconds to repai the building enough so that the second blast won't destroy it, saving the building. That's way more time than they usually need.

wouldn't really matter, cause remember, there is another engi team that could blow the c4 right away, and it would give no warning because of the first biulding being blasted. Its just like that diversion tactic someone has up

Yeah, it's really cool when the team works together. There's some people that actually know how to play the game and when you get them together the game is so much more fun. I hate the rambo types that buy an APC and drive off without waiting for anyone else to get in. You have a much better chance of succeeding if you have 2 APCs, a cover or tons of people in your APC (going in all different directions).

SuperTech

Of course if there are more than 2 tanks in the base, its best to rush 3 buildings at once, as the APC generally won't last in such an unhealthy enviroment to fend off repair crews trying to get at the building.

In city mostoftimes the weaponfac and pp gets mined first and everybody wants to destroy the pp so why not take the obelisk.

Yes thats the one.
But sometimes the c4 remote dissapears so as soon as you hear the first timed go off detonate the remote. They will have no chance repairing it.

Three mines are enough for most buildings. If they are full power.
