...wait is that real gameplay footage from BF3...!?!
Anyway, I was playing on a Skim Junction (3-node) map and the red-team had just taken the final objective inside the base with a tank and infantry support that they used first to cap the CRU, then fortify the middle of the base then return back out toward the CRU. My team didn't really mount much of an AV offense as their only spawn in, initialy was safe on the spawn in, but all the exits were guarded. The infantry support and blaster tank was too strong.
Well, I figured it wouldn't be long until they took the final objective and possibly redlined us, but I wanted to give hope to the team by taking out the tank. I spawned in with my remote explosive, shotgun/hacker logi, and snuck to the front of the base to hack the two blaster turrets guarding the entrance, to temporarily cut off their reinforcement from the rear. Then I dropped an uplink outside the base as the run from the MCC was just too stupidly far for most people, causing too many newberries to just give up and either lemming toward the turrets in LAVs or try and barrage the walls of the base with militia sniper rifles.
I get in the base and see that the tank and infantry support are finishing off the last formidable defense inside the base, but their backs are all to the entrance i just came in. I sneak behind the tank and drop 2 remote explosives behind its treads. Then I take cover and toss a flux grenade as the mass of reds surrounding it. Direct shield hit on the party!!! Because of the chaos they still didn't know I was there, and the tank was still not back far enough for a direct hit from the explosives. So in order to sacrifice my element of suprise, for what was left of my teams concentrated efforts I decided to lure the tank and anything else back over the explosives. I took cover and started noob spraying the tank and infantry support from a position that the tank turret could only get if he backed up.
And what do you know? He backed up with 3 other rifleman spraying at me. Thankfully their rounds finished off my armor right after I had time to switch to my detonator. I hugged the trigger to my chest as I watched the tank slowly roll over the explosives. As I was bleeding out I squeezed the trigger and took the tank down to critical/burn-out. I got 2 infantry kills, and the tank team sat in the tank long enough to die from the explosions of the tank burning out. It was enough to turn the game back into a fair game. |
