I've kinda gotten to like Mission Mode, but ...........

For some reason even though I always choose the west coast server, I get lumped in with a bunch of Italians that barely speak English.  :huh

Maybe its the timezone thing.  But what are all these Italians doing on the California server??  

I'm definitely learning what soldier to choose based on the map.  Mission mode is almost always the Medic.  If I'm in the infantry maps I want to be a Sniper for Montana, Heavy Weapons for Emblem and the one with the helicopters ...........

I've tried the weapons upgrades.  At this time, they are mostly worthless.  The only ones I've gone from a 3 day purchase to the long term 30 day purchase on are .........

The sub-machine gun pistol replacement.  BIG help over the standard issue .45 thats for sure, plus having an auto that fires that fast can be a life saver.

There is one rifle thats a slot 3 upgrade for Medic, Engineer and whatever they call the guy with the floppy hat.  Useful upgrade.

If you play on a map that uses helicopters alot, you might consider the Stinger for the Heavy Weapons guy.  Having a heat seeker is a big help.

What they really need for the Heavy Weapons man is a M-60 or equivalent so he can lay down some serious firepower.  Having just a RPG or a pistol is not much of an option.  Also he needs something other than mines for his slot 4.  Grenades or SOMETHING.  Mines are useless.

Also need something for the standard trooper with a grenade launcher or something to make his firepower heavier than the medic and engineer, and give him more than just the 2 grenades.

if youre sniper inclined, you definitely want the PSG upgrade.

for combatants you'll need the M4 or G36.

What server(s) are you playing on, and at what times? Any particular side?

I've been on both east coast and west coast servers, usually in the evenings....no particular room.  I have hard time telling anything about the rooms anyway :confused:

It is pretty unrealistic aquashrimp, but then it is just a game.  IMO there are many out there that are better, but its still a fun time killer ;)

Thanks for the upgrade guidance guys.  Not sure if I am even gonna bother with it, but I might (hard to resist the "new gun temptation") :)

Would you rather have some guy come to your house and put a double tap into your body as you play?

After almost 2 weeks of this, I started to get bored with it and then I discovered a whole new world of fun.  

Sniping for dollars.  

Or Dinars, in this case.

The game rewards you based on kills and on flag captures (in the appropriate rooms).  After having a couple of really good players hand me my prettythang over and over again, I studied their tactics and realized I could not only advance myself in the game this way, but I could really annoy the crap out of a whole lot of people and ruin their nights.  Ever since, the game has taken on whole new worlds of fun for me.  I now spend my afternoons making 12 year olds cry like babies!  :)

Snipers are always the griefers. :D It's just an online world fact.

This might help draw in new "recruits", eh?
