just a quick tip for engies-
If you can see a place where Snipers usually snipe from, DONT BUILD IT THERE. That is unless I'm playing against you. IT's simple, snipe the engie then snipe the SG. Then you get even more kills.

Actually I'm a sick bugger and I like to destroy the SG first so that it blows up in the engys face and takes him with it.


I do that to dispensers whenever I can too.

JD, for those who care about #'s, does killing the Engy via the SG blowing up (instead of killing the Engy directly yourself) give you credit for the Engy kill or just the SG kill?

Wouldn't it be better to destroy the sg first? There are so many reasons to do so.

1. An sg is way more dangerous than an engy.
2. There is a chance that the sg will destroy the engy in the process
3. It is hard for a sniper to get so far into the enemy's D that he can snipe sgs. If you target the engy first, there is a chance that you will be killed before you can destroy the sg.

"I" think the Sg should be destroyed first.

Have you noticed that when a group of engineers are working an area and a SG gets destroyed, they remind me of an ant hill that you just stirred up with a stick.
Anyone else see a resemblence?

lol! You know there's that little SG hill where SGs can guard 3. Snipers can see the edge of that from the room. Snipers can also see the SGs in the little walkway getting around the Church and all on the little hill opposite from 3. It's kinda hard to explain where. Also, when you are capping 2, there are 2 ways for the enemies to come out, nere 2 and that other place where snipers tend to be. From right out of the gates I can get them sometimes but others, just standing before the incline past the well will get them all. my $.02(american- change it to canadien yourself)

I personally would shoot the engineer first. Then he can't shoot you back with that nasty railgun.

You get no credit for killing the Engy with the SG, but you do get a great amount of personal satisfaction at a job well done.

I wonder if that's even possible lol...I usually like to take the sg out first, cause if the engy doesn't get taken out with it, it's usually because he isn't around at all. If that happens the engy usually goes and just rebuilds the sg giving me and my team another target to take out. The only time I'll try to take the engy out first is if I'm a spy and there are a lot of engies in the game.
