Now for my problems/questions:
1.)I am pretty fustrated with only about 1 thing in this game.. The Oblesik and the GDI tower base defense... Is it me or does the game seem to just revolve around losing an incredible amount of time/effort/money and units trying to overcome base defense! Its almost not worth getting into the enemy's base! Its a death sentence!

I tried so many diffrent things, i like 8-16 player games and rushing in with 4-6 tanks usually gets demolished by 1 or 2 of any kind of tanks and 1 defense tower! Then you try to sneak in and it still gets you! Is there any easy way or effective way to get past base defense?

2.)Does planting 1 C4 on a master computer in buildings blow it up?

3.)Stealth tanks-I thought they supposed to be invisible, and it seems no matter how far I am away the enemy allways shoots me!

4.)Hot-wire and engy? whats the diffrence?

I am pretty **** good at this game and I have gotten MVP in at least 40\% of the games I played, but the above things drive me crazy, I would appreciate your help.. THANKS!

Hotwire/technician has proximity mines, and they repair faster than engineer.

If you are playing as NOD try a flame tank rush. It takes more than 1 though. The key to this game is teamwork. If you are playing as GDI 3 mammy tanks can take it but you will lose one for sure. Have an engineer or hotwire follow for support if you have one.

It takes more than 1 C4. I beleive 2 remote C4's take off a 1/3, your timed takes off a 1/3. Therefore an engineer cannot do it in one try but a Hotwire can.

Stealth Tanks and stealth black hands (the 400 credit ones) are invisible unless you shoot or get too close to a vehicle or infantry. Also the defensive structures can see you just fine.

Hotwire and Technicians (the NOD counterpart) are upgraded engineers. Their repair gun works better and they carry an extra timed C4 and 5 or 6 proximity mines also.

Hope I helped.

Then again, those of us with XP (and whatever other OS's/drivers actually allow it) get to play multiple channels of sound simultaneously, which rocks.
