Smokers:

1) Generally, you always want to stall and delay the survivors. Pull them backwards whenever possible. Pulling them forwards can work sometimes, ie if you can pull them into an area that they'd rather clear slowly.
2) Try to be at a different elevation than them. This is most effective pulling them down into a place they'd rather not be, but spawning above them can give you good protection from their direct shots.
3) Try to time your pulls with boomer pukes. However, keep in mind that after about 2s of being puked on, most survivor teams will be positioned and meleeing, making pulls much more difficult to land. The best time is to hit them in that very small interval after they've been puked on, but before they're positioned.

Hunters:
Only crouch when:
1) you need to get somewhere fast/high
2) you're trying to create a distraction
3) you see an isolated target of opportunity(removed from the group, not-puked on, etc)
4) you have a large height advantage and want the extra pounce damage
5) your knockback has a chance of knocking people over a ledge

Rake is an incredibly effective attack because you don't make any sounds until you hit, you maintain your speed advantage, your damage is instant, you can make multiple hits, and you can select your target better. Your attack is also a little bit longer than the melee swing, so if they're just clumped up and meleeing, you can rake them from just outside their arc, forcing them to shoot you or to move closer to engage them.

Stuff to be careful of:
1) Never pounce head-on. You're asking for a face full of lead, or a melee. Either way, unless you're lucky or the guy is a nub, you'll prob just get yourself frustrated and your team will be waiting for you to spawn. (Read More...

We have had many of nights with the dead and to say its been an easy venture would be a lie. There is a lot of depth to a short game and not being able to work with others will cost you dearly, even make you hate the damn game in its entirety. You will be back though in haste and we welcome you anytime.

Game on!

HERE IT IS ---

It is the ultimate game of Rock, Paper, Scissors thou. Your platoon of meduim or heavy tanks that just wiped out an entire infantry company can be vaporized by a couple of attack helos before you have a chance to pop smoke, so you come back as AAA and wipe the helos that just killed you and a couple more, along with shooting up some transports just to have them reduced to smoking heaps by a well timed napalm strike. Rock, Paper, Scissors.

The better you perform, the more kills you rack up, you more TA points (tactical assistance), you earn. These can be cashed in for mere morter barrage, air strike, chemical attack, napalm, paratroop drop, or a tactical nuke. It's a friggin hoot!

You can choose to play either as infanrty, attack air, armor, or support (arty and AAA). There is 3 diffirent types of game play, all of them rock. The gameplay is smooth, fun, and fast paced, a huge bang for your gaming buck.

It takes you 10 minutes to learn how to play and a life time to master! The RTS guys are gonna love it.

It's going to be very tough to go back to the "battlefield" after 2 weeks with WiC. I'm having withdrawls already.

Open beta in July, releases in SEP.--
