Ok, I was in a match today CTF on death island. 2v2. What the other team did was run up and get both the banshees then one would defend in front of the base or by the teleporter to top of base and the other would be a flag runner. We had a defender in a tank and a flag runner was using warthogs. The score was 3 to 0 them. Any ideas of what we could have done?

Get the tank atop the level, take out shee(s), have flag runner go in via hog from the top of the level by doing a suicide spin (you can jump forever and not get hurt by spinning the warthog when you go off a cliff), then teleporting and getting in the shee you killed atop the level. You'd get them riled to the point where they WOULD not go on offense simply because of your threat. In a 2v2 situation when you can have 1 defender and one attacker, or two attackers or two defenders, go two attackers but make it coordinated.

A good defense is a solid offense. Force the other team to go solid defensive and distract and divert them until you can get an opening. Just keep pummelling them and the other team will always fall loose somewhere.

Good idea. Thank you. But what about all of the warthogs they have? Won't the figure it out and jump in one?

Warthogs are easier to take out than banshees. Use a grenade or ram them off the cliff of something.

Heyyo,

One thing I noticed, no one picks up the stickey grenades beside the base's. So when you spawn, go pick them up, so when a banshee comes down for the finishing swoop? stickey that bugger, and there ya go, vaccant banshee. I suggest making it fall to the front of your base and that you don't use it, cause odds are you'll get inna banshee fight with theirs, and if your tank buddy aint there to help, and his bud's shooting at you to try n' get the banshee back? then you better be a darn good pilot, or risk them having both the banshee's again. If anything, after you kill a banshee, try to put them out of the way, since they obviously couldn't stage decent attacks/defense with anything other than banshees, playing keep-away would seriously diminish their chances of winning. ;)

Thanx for the advice again guys. But I have a new problem. (im full of problems) I am trying to make a dedicated server for my clan. I can get it up and they can go in and play and all is good. The only bad thing is that I can not join. I changed the ports to 2304 and 2305. I tried to find it in GameSpy but couldn't see it. A clan mate found it and gave me the IP but when I tried to get in, didn't work. Any ideas here guys?
