Which base do you think has the advantage, and please don't say blue cuz da color is kewl. Actually give a reason to your answer like blue has such and such strategic position.

Blue, becuase the hill to the left of it his easier to get to, and it has a great snipeing spot behind it. I think its blue... pretty sure it is.

Dude. This is practically a pointless thread, one of many thousandths. The Red and Blue bases are equally positioned, neither one has an advantage of any kind. You start, you grab you're vehicle, lock 'n load, 'nuff said.

If its pointless then just go away.

Actually, I say Red. In front of Blue base, there is a big hill that enemies can hit you from w/ pistols and can hide behind it. In front of Red base, for the most part, it's flat and easy to defend.

if it's pointless then don't reply itll just die away in 20 minutes anyway. Also I know both bases are VERYclose to equal but most people have preferances and I was wondering what everyone else thought.

TetheringtonWA you have NO right to call this thread stupid, if i recally correctly you were one of the posters that kept that little counting thread going when i kept tyring to end it, hypocrite!

As for my response to your question wessy, i think blue base is better because the map is NOT symetrical at all!(as Tetherington would have you believe) I like blue more because of the large hill's proximity, the large space behind it(where people often do not look even though its wide open) and also the ability to hide in shadows quite well with dark blue armor, the reds might say that you blend in with the ridge with red armor, but in all honesty, a half decent sniper would spot anybody on the ridge within 10-20 seconds of a guy going up there.

I see blue base as a death trap actualy. I like the red base alot better because I like to sniper from either the large hill behind it, the ledge on the side, all the hills make for good cover agianst your enemies and the shade to the right of it behind the hill is great for sniping. No one ever looks back there it seems until they see there teemates fall and a huge white streak is streaming across the map. The blue side has its perks but not as many.

Even though all you guys seem to like Blue, I'm going with Red, I'm a decent sniper and it gives me a chance to do that. I enjoy the Equality of the level if you think about it. If I'd have to choose I'd choose Red.

You know, I don't remember asking for your comment RotateMan, so why don't you just stfu, okay? And so what if the bases aren't EXACTLY equal like I commented, -blam!- you too, go ahead and be as technical as you want -blam!-. And too bad that thread was all in good fun at the end, so back the -blam!- off and get over it -blam!-. As for the rest of you who are giving me -blam!-, your all a buncha -blam!-s, seriously.

Now that I see what others have written I'll post mine. I like [color=red]red[/color]. It has a lot of little perks plus some wicked spots to snipe blue.

What I do is make my way through the tunnel on the right mountain to blue until i get to the exit then I walk up the cliff till I get to a corner looking thing ad snipe. The god thing is only a ghost can drive up there and kill you and it takes a while for the enemy to dislodge me. But if the enemy does get there hands on a sniper rifle then I ddrop staight down and there is a little nook you can hide and if you duck and hold back no one can see you. Once I'm done with that I just rotate around the base counter clockwise strafing around in the shadows until they finally kill me or until I get the flag and make my getaway.

Personally I would rather be on red. It's much brighter, flatter, has high spots around it, and you can easily sneak around if you know anything about being ninja. hehehe. I few pistols in the guys while you run up and a grenade takes care of them while you grab the flag and you're friend follows - the others pick up people in the middle and you warp. You run over with the warthog and score. It's easy if you have good enough people. That is saying that you're playing CTF. Slayer is a little harder because they spawn anywhere on either side.

it all depends on who you are playing, i pretty much only play snipes, so if you are sniping from the ridge or the big hill behind red you aren't going to last(very visable) the MAIN reason i like blue is because of terrain-crossing reasons in the warthog(i wont go into that...to complicated) and also because its the darker of the two, good for hiding(but keep in mind i snipe, if ur an all out war guy the color wouldnt matter)

Respect? Phh, I'm obviously not getting respect from retards like RotateMan and don't even start Ninja my comments aren't even directed towards you, they're directed towards anyone who's given me -blam!- since I've made my first post in the thread.

i think there both pretty equal
red base is more vulnerable to snipers, blue base can easily be assualted with pistols
red base has better sniper spots and is easier to snipe from, flag getaways are easier from red base,blue base is easier to infiltrate
i personally prefer red base

started? i believe you came in here talking about how this post was pointless, for such a pointless post this sure has sparked a lot of debate over which base is better. If you come in here flaming, expect a little something in return, i told you what i thought of your coment and thats it, now move on, theres no reason to keep arguing
