On field,as GDI,we APC rushed the OB,well,I got out of the APC early and went in the hand as a hotwire. After taking out the building by myself,
I noticed something.
I wasnt being killed by the usual wad of infantry.
This left me stranded in the hand.
I stayed there,ducking and hiding from the occasional spawner,just seeing how long I could survive like this. As I sat in there looking out the window at the raging battle outside,one thought was in my mind.
"Darn...wish I had brought a beacon!"

Yeah that happend to me too, but instead i waited for the respwanded to go to the PT then i shot them to death, i also managed to grab an apache of the roof while somone was repairing it and made a get away. Its cool stuff like that that makes me happy to play renegade.

this is a very common misconception. people seem to think that once the HoN/Infantry barracks are destroyed, you no longer need to defend against the end game beacon.
we play on a LAN at work, and my cubemate has ended the game too many times this way.

Yeah it is turned off on many. Most times I do defense as Island is tough for GDI.. One of the very few times I made it to the hand on island with a beacon, set the thing off on the ped and all I did was kill the bldg....bummer ![[Frown]](frown.gif)

Yeah, but when your in the hand do NOT try a rambo rush on the obelisk. You cannot get in.
By the way, servers that turn off beacon wins are communist and should not be played on.

In sniper games....it's extremely simple to get in the HoN, walk past the worthless obby and use the backdoor to get in. Haven't worried about getting out yet. Best sniping spots are usually the ones they least expect it to be. Nothing lik it on under either. Walk past he obby, backdooor on the HoN, hit em in the back of the head on their way out of the base...

I love beacon wins. One time on canyon they had our entire base except for the tib ref. My brother baught a beacon, I got shotgun trooper, and we placed it on the pedastle. No1 got close, it was bitter sweet. In the next game all the Nod players where screamin WTF.

Turn of the mathematical filter WW. Beacon wins are the best. Every time I've gone with a beacon, I usually win. Everytime I place one, I always win. But yet, they look at me as the guy who wasn't the MVP, and won it for them without them knowing, hehe. That's my life story... It's really fun, I love going in the GDI Barracks and watching them disarm the beacon, as I am flamethrower or Stealth Black Hand, burning their heads. Hahahaha, flame Hotwire's head.
