Eh, planes aren't two seaters in 1943 Belgarath. Or did you mean they literally bailed out and you happened to spawn in it because you were in his squad or something?

Either way, you should play Air Superiority mode to learn how to fly. It's a fun mode to boot, and you'll learn flying pretty quick.

I don't understand how people get this good on the plane.

I really wish I can put together a 4 person squad with each person playing a different class and the 4th person constantly in a plane. Infantry and rifleman to capture the bases, and the scout for long range support to clip people defending a base

I can practise with the planes more to fill one of those positions on the 4 man squad, if none of you other guys are wanting to.

Although I never seem to have good luck with planes. Some ****er always shoots me down almost as soon as I take off.

Got on for an hour or so tonight and just couldn't get anything started. I would get top of the board but our team would get DESTROYED no matter what. What a waste of time.

Going with your idea, I switched up to rifleman tonight while playing a couple rounds with Munky. First round I played, ended up with 15 or so kills, and next round, ended up with 20 kills. I think I found my class of choice. (Y)

One great moment while using the rifleman class tonight, got a headshot on a guy while he was driving a jeep. :laugh:

Yeah I changed my mind - Munky's aren't made for flying :p I tend to make some stupid mistakes and end up flying into something.

I'll be Sniper instead.

isnt the point of the party though, so you can all stick together and get points helping each other, not splitting up?

Well yeah it is usually, but it also helps to just let people play to their strengths. So if they aren't good at CQC then sniping from a far might be better for them.

But sticking together isn't always the best tactic, especially if you are capping a flag and a tank comes rolling in. Unless you are all good enough and prepared, the tank is gonna win with the surprise attack.

If all 4 (or at least just 3) people on the squad switched to rockets, it wouldn't be a problem.

That's the catch 22 with the sniper, they are the best class to take out tanks, but they suck in CQC. Not to mention if you are miles away from the tank attacking your team mates, it's going to be far too late for you to do anything to help with TNT. That's the good thing about older BF games and the laser target (Y)

I agree with you there andy, that was primarily my job when playing with you guys in BF:BC to tag **** and let u guys finish em off. That tactic seemed to work quite well iirc

John, if you are ever online while I am you know we will play. (Y)

And watching that plane video makes me realize what needs to be done to be a better pilot, and I can probably be one with a few hours of practice, but just do not want to be, my preferred BF vehicle has treads. :laugh:

1943 is a quick to pick up community game. I'm glad they aren't releasing DLC for it, because that would split the community and go against what Xbox Live is all about. I hate it when you see three maps going up for 800 points for games like COD and GoW. Sure it adds to the game but it also splits everyone up unnecessarily =/

Oh man was expecting european campigns..Like operation market garden, bocage, road to rome, etc. Those were great maps in 1942.

oh man Market Garden was hella fun times.

remember camping the parachute spawn point over by the church when all was capped? sitting ducks in the sky. lol

one huge problem I'm seeing recently is that MOST people are switching to Rifleman these days. Which means there's no balance whatsoever!

And I'm part of the problem too LOL because I refuse to be any other class

well, EA/DICE has been known to give away free DLC

For BFBC, they threw in conquest mode, conquest maps, and 3 new maps for both modes, and Coral Sea for BF1943
