1. Do you think the Apache is better or the Orca?

Depends on the map. In a generally open map like walls flying, I prefer the orca, due to its superior range and slightly smaller body. On a map like city flying, where you can hide behind things and such, I prefer the apache. No HUGE differences, but yeah.

Well, they both suck ass, really. But, for early game harvester attacks (Which is their only purpose really), I'd have to go for the buggy. It's faster, and can take a few vital seconds less than the humvee to get to the GDI harvester. Plus, if any of the GDI team manages to attack me, I can run back to the base quicker. Also, thanks to its lower cost, it's easier to get it than the humvee. While both are pretty much entirely useless, atleast the buggy can have one use earlier on. And, if Nod is lucky, the AGT is down, allowing you to possibly speed in with a few buggies. If you went in an APC, it'd probably be destroyed or be taken anyways. Atleast with a buggy, you have higher speed and smaller size to quickly rush an enemy base. Granted, this only worked about once for me, and it was in a smaller game, so it's really only a tactic for small games, but yeah.

Light tank, but mostly it's personal preference there. Medium tank works fine aswell, but I mostly like the light tank due to its speed. A good tank driver can dodge more tank shells than the slow medium tank, giving the enemy no points atall. Plus, as stated before, its turret is farther back, making it easier to pop out of corners and such. And it looks awesome.

On topic:
Also in the Orca, when you exit, you pop out the left side. In the Apache, you exit out the right side. Very important to know if you are going for a building...positioning your aircraft so you are nearest the door. Of course, you watch for mines.
It's very funny to chase a Apache back to it's base and the pilot falls from the building when he exits to repair it lololololololol.....!!

I laugh when someone accuses me of hacking... because I can imagine how bad they must be if they think I'm too good to be true. 'Ol shakeyhands, that's me... Actually, I'm pretty sure I have been forcerg'd, once. Got booted, too, because RG was being a dick about working the day it happened. Funny stuff.
Anyhow, I'd just like to note that of the three vehicles listed, only the Light and Medium tanks can actually support an argument. Range trumps stealthiness for the aircraft, because you should be looking all around yourself anyway, and vehicles are pretty hard to miss unless they're across the map and invisible. Hummers and Buggies are both early rushers that suck donkeys by mid-game. APCs are an obvious GDI win for size, and nobody cares about Transport Helos because there's nothing to argue about. IMHO, the most interesting discussions were always MRLS vs. Arty and STank vs. Mammoth (Flamer having no real "rival").

Remember, kids: illiteracy is cool. If you took the time to read this, you are clearly a loser who will never get laid. You've been warned.

1. Orca is better, looks cooler and better range and smaller, as for the noise, that doesn't make a lot of difference, hopefully you hear the Apache or Orca before they kill you
2. I prefer the Humm-vee, better health for 50 credits which will take 30 seconds to get so you'll live longer.
3. As for the tanks, I typically don't buy them because I like to be fast and small, but I'd go with the Light, faster smaller and the conviently located turrent, the light may have less firepower but who cares when the enemy hits only 25% of the time because only a 1/3 of your body is seen?
Orca = Death Sentence
