when placing a beacon, one way i found that really works is to plant 2.
Have the first one be planted someone less obvious, then one more or less in plain site.
If done right, all the hotties/techs/engis will convulge the one planted last, go to it, and repair it, while the other one is going off.

Haha...it's funny you mention that cuz just yesterday, GDI beat us in City_Flying with that tactic.
It was a good fight...in the end they had their PP/AGT and we only had our Ref.

Or put both at a less obvious place and watch techies/hotties split up so it's easier to defend your beacon and you may get two buildings.
You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

under the topic title i put a little description.
I did that so people hopefully wouldnt post stating that oh-so obsvious fact.
When they only have 1 building, you have 2 realistic choices: nuke/destroy the building, or nuke the ped.
If it is a marathon server, i ve known times when its taken over an hour to finish a game where one team has clearly no hope of winning (ala one building left). but since they camp said building, it is hard to destroy.
The funny thing is, these campers will defend a building like there's no tommorrow, yet whine/create polls to skip, then whine some more when it dosnt pass, then just plainly refuse to give up...

^ n00bs dont work together when theres a base, but work together when theres none? How intriguing...

actually, from experiance, its the other way round.
Especially after a base defence has been killed and you are nod....

what do you mean? n00bs who just wander off and do their own thing tend to wander back into their bases after something dies...even if its half their base. Unless they just plain leave, but thats another story

what i mean is, if nod destroy the AGT, then alot of nod will think that working as a team is no longer needed, so will wander off and try to take down the base themselves...

Contradiction??
Either they do or they dont "when there is a base"

yep, then you get pwned by the other still functional team.
Fpr example on hourglass, if your nod, gdi can easily camp with 2 mammy's and thus many single stanks die... i see this way too often, brings a tear to my eye.
Jamie is a guys name in Europe...

what i find funny is, when a single SBH manages to get through and succssfully manages to nuke a structure like the ref or pp...

Its so simple!
1.All i do is get a couple of people in APCS.
2.We go into their base, away from the action. Get next to the wall.
3.Cover your self with the acp (your teamates should too).
4.Place beacon.
5.Get back in, and cover it. if u r succcessful, the building shoiuld be history.
If u follow these steps. I bet the base will be destroyed very easily.
P.S. You dont have to be pro to pull this off, just a good shooter. (But I do reccemend that if you are less experienced that you go with go with a few other teamates.) Make sure you are a solier of any sort , and not a engenier just in case your APC blows up.)
