Another way is to get down to the ground, grab a Stealth flag, go through the tunnel, then jump up to the first or second floor of the enemy base and kill the sniping tanks. If you are lucky enough to get shockwave, go below the enemy base below enemy tank(s), jump and shoot. Don’t count on stealth to get shockwaves because shockwave is rare and random. |
− | + | Most players that get the enemy flag go across the bridge, but the safest way is through the tunnel. Wings is useful for killing enemy GM snipers in towers. You have to identify players (pressing i) before you shoot a guided missile because it is unusually easy to shoot teammates instead of enemies. | |
