What do you think is better? Is it wort it to buy one of these when the game first starts, or wait for an APC? The speed of the buggy is great and the armour on the hummer is so-so.

What do you guys think?

A friend and I have kept the field under control from stanks and artys with just 2 hummers. Hummers are great if you know how to use them properly, as gozy pointed out camping at the strip at the start of the game is a real good strat.

it also depends on the map if it is a map without base defenses, it is a very good tactic for killing infantry and scanning for stanks(this is also for buggy)

But if it has base defenses it does not do much.

Depends on map... City flying and mesa allow buggies to be pretty deadly Smile.

Also maps with a lotta open ground is fun to kill people becuase you can just mow them down....

Don't like either, killed too easily, and i play in servers that have shells so they could be captured. Mainly only use if you need quick transport and even then :/

camping airstrip really only works for a game with 15 or less, otherwise 10 soldiers will overpower one or two hummers on the airstrip

They both are great vehicles. But the buggy is the better of them two.

The only real threat for them are noobjets and maybe PIC/Railgun. Can contantly rush otherwise, at least on defenseless maps. It's even possible to reach the GDI powerplant on City (both versions) with close to no damage.

Aren't they just kind of.............The same thing.....? I mean, sure they look slightly different, but they have the same stats and stuff.....

By the way, just my 2 cents: Another thing deadly to the buggy/humvee? Pretty much any automatic weapon. I can EASILY take down a buggy with a solder. Easily. If they have very good aim, its slightly harder, since they can headshot me, but usually if I dump 2 clips into them, maybe less, that buggy is gone, and whoever's inside is going to get ripped apart shortly after.

no they do not.

Hummer has 50 more armor and 50 more health and costs $50 more.
Buggy is faster

Both do same amount of damage as a APC does

Basic GDI Rifle infantry can take down a buggy really easily. Due to the fact the buggy is weaker, and the GDI Rifle does 7 damage per hit.

Takes a bit more work from NOD rifle infantry to take down a hummer. since the hummer is stronger and their rifle only does 5 damage per hit.

I obviously believed you, because you seem to know the game really well.
