ok yeah so me and some of my friends started playing the battlefield2 demo online. And well, i am "particularly" not that great, i admit, and well they want to team up on me during a game.

And i was wondering if you guys had any pointers for me?. would really like to pop all their heads! and prove em wrong!.

If you are good at one computer fps, you are good at them all. Pretty much just crank your sensitivity and practice a whole lot.

Yep, if you play more often than them, you'll probably end up being better. Practice makes perfect as they say.

Short bursts. Most newbs try to hose everyone down, but you won't hit much of anything that way. Fight the urge to hold down the button and click instead. Your accuracy will go up, and so will your kills.

If you are running a sniper, use your gaymores to cover your back. Put them at the travel path to where you are, preferably just around corners and out of sight.

Along the same lines, special forces C4 makes a nasty surprise when they don't see it. Plus, you can detonate it from a long ways off.

My favorite class is Support. Big gun, unlimited ammo. Toss your grenades, drop a ammo bag, toss more grenades. Once you learn how to use bursts, you can pick off targets at long range with your LMG.

Use your surroundings to your advantage. If you are being gunned, run around a corner, stop and drop. Odds are your pursuer will come barreling around trying to finish you off. Just give him a face full of lead.

If someone is prone on a roof, they can be hard to hit. Use the right mouse button to throw a grenade just high enough to get it to the roof. Also, most newbs get too close to the edge, exposing themselves to fire from below.

If you can get some distance between you and them, set up a killing zone. Concentrate your firepower where they will be coming at you from... like an alley, around a corner, between rocks. Don't let them choose the place, you do it and make them come to you.

And, as was said above, practice, practice, practice. BF2 is not a spray and pray type of game... it actually allows you to use your aim to your advantage.

sweet, I always use short quick bursts but for some reason they always end up killing me. Say, im aiming at the head and firing short rounds, am i meant to aim lower ( at the neck)?. Because they never die!!.


i suck on land but i rule the skies!

A head shot is a one shot kill, but they are hard to pull off on a consistent basis. Aim for the chest or lower abdomen. The kick will raise your shots up through the hit boxes.

You can also switch to single shot for long range shots.

On an average day in Jalalabad, I kill more than I die. On a bad day I can't break even. On a good day I have been accused of hacking. there's nothing like dropping around a corner and wiping out an entire squad. But, then I usually play infantry only and am used to ground-pounding.
