Bad company 2 tips

What's with all the medic hate? ITSUSED FORSUPPORT PEOPLE.DEAL WITH IT. The medic is meant to sit behing cover next to a team mate (or two or ten) and feed them packs of health and revive them while gaining huge points in the process. If a medic decides to run around the map like an idiot and kill people, they are a ****,and should be using to assault class.The only good medic is a live medic, after all a dead medic can't revive himself, now can he?

Some tips:
Stay behind cover and look for high concentrations of allies, go to them, look for cover, get behind it, and heal and revive away.
The medic is amazing for defense, but lacks potency for offense (at least for me).
An LMG isn't exactly stealthy, so run from cover to cover.
Support allies, you get the same amount of points for a revive as a kill, andyou can get over 100 pts from healing a single guy.
DON'T, and i mean DON'T run around the map and revive ppl. You'll die yourself more times than not. most people don't get that people die for a reason, and the enemy is probably still around.

Fire in long, sustained bursts, it'll actually boost your accuracy, and try to avoid firing on the run for long range accuracy.

Thats all I got, plz send more tips, i'm open to criticism about these tips. Don't only send medic tips, send tips for other ****s too plz.

Thx, makes me feel warm and fuzzy all over :)

double post, sry

I, personaaly, think the medic is better for defense. You rez all your teammates that die, keeping a strong defensive front. While at the same time, your have good cover and a nice LMG to make mincemeat out of the guys that get around your first line.

Anyone got any tips for the recon,engineer, and assault classes? I would post some tips on them, but I can't think of any substantial combinations of tips. In other words, for the time being, I'm tipped out.

These are kind of obvious, sorry. I would also highly disagree with firing in long bursts, with guns like the M60, it always works better quickly firing it 1 round at a time as if it's semi automatic.

would have to disagree. sure thats a good point but defence gets unlmited spawns. the attackers dont.

-engineer tips-

1. dont run out in the open. you cant out gun a medic, a recon using an assault riffle or any one using an LMG or an assault riffle for that matter. so stay in close, manageable areas.

2. if your going to ride in a tank, plan to die in it! dont hop out as soon as you get hit by an enemy tank! (too often some one leavs a tank at 50% health thinking there going to actually get away, hay maybe you did but if that guy on D goes on a kill streak with it, thats why you lost.) find it and shoot back! if you really want to be pro. wait until you can sustain one more blow before the tank blows up, hop out and shoot the enemy tank with your rocket launcher while hes trying to see if he killed you or not.:lol: i love doing this

yes, but just becuase defense gets unlimited spawns doesn't mean it still does not suck to need to run the the front line again, running the risk to die another time before even getting to the line(assuming there is a line). Plus, what happens if 3/4 of your front line gets killed by a mortar strike and noone can revive ppl? Then like 3 ppl are going against the enemy team. See my piont? With offense you have vehichles galore, you have the UAV, and usually have a fast way to get to the fron line (via ATV), and sometimes you got a heli firing from above and people jumping out of it. So, you don't need a medic to keep your frontline strong because every time you spawn you can get to the frontline in a split second anyway. See my piont?

Funny I just made this guide earlier lol.

Sniping and you have access to helicopters, have a friend drop you off or parachute on cliffs along the border of the maps(also drop off on tall structures).Especially, Port Valdez have the attack chopper on defense drop you off on the cranes on the dock(plus the radio tower defending the last m-com stations). Plus with Recon, use the helicopter as a bomb. Strap C4 onto the chopper and launch it at m-com stations or enemies and while parachuting you pull the trigger. Also you can do the same with the UAV.

In other words you're saying if you're recon, sit pack like a pansy and pick off the odd guy, helping your team none?

Nope, the spots I got I'm able to cover the m-com stations, spot enemies, and take out vehicles. I usually get my squad a lot of kills from spotting, and in return I can snipe anyone trying to plant or defend the crate from being defused. I've watched other people and picked up on what they do.

I'd say one of the most important things for snipers to do is mark your enemies. I don't know about all of you guys, but i'm not the best at catching running targets, and marking them is way easier. It helps out the guys that are fighting in the front lines so they don't get surprised by that guy running around the house (plus you get points if the marked enemy is killed).

Trust me, picking up on what other recons do is a horrible idea. :P You don't sound too bad, but I think the way to go is be close enough to throw poke balls and defuse/arm bombs. Staying far back spotting is still not THAT useful. Recon can do very well at close range, the pistol isn't as weak as people think. ;)

i only really use the medic class anyway, i suck with the sniper and the engineer. well it depends on the map really. im good as a sniper on arica harbour but thats about it

Your tips were good, but if you play right, being a Combat Medic is an invaluable asset. I use the M14 or USAS-12 at short range and G3 and MG36 at mid-range and I can easily go around the map getting kills and reviving falling teammates.

recon tips Dont be recon class if you cant snipe that is allchaoscougar1

I wish more people would take this tip. I hate when people can't snipe so they just run around as Recon with an M14.

i have to disagree again. i dont know any of the "best" sniping spots lol im an engineer :P. but for a change of pace i can be just as deadly with a G3, motion censors and C4. so even if you dont know how to snipe you can still be a great recon player. funny as hell when im killing the snipers that like to sit 3 steps from out of bounds with a G3 and the only way they can kill me is with a mortar strike.

so tell me whose more useful. the recon that gets a a few sniper riffle kills (a minor nuisance) or the guy thats actually with the squad providing RECONNAISSANCE ie. motions censors, spotting, and arming crates?
