If you are on the red team, it is probably a good idea to get a sniper or two up in the cliff up behind the base to spawn kill any one who gets in the way of a full 'hog of teammates going for the flag. Giving your teammates cover is always a good option.

Dude spawn kill???? Only if you want to be called the lamiest lame player of all time. most of the time enemy snipers will look up there first so they can take out n e one who goes up there. The key to snipe is to go to the less obvious spots, like the little ditch in the canyon wall on the West side of the red base, that's a good spot to give your team some support fire if n e blues so happen to get close. But keep looking for good spots.

Here is a nice hint...there is a glitch in one of the rocks in blood gulch. what you do is hop in a hog and drive up to the kind of odd looking rock right in front of the cave system the only way i can describe this rock is that it looks something like pride rock from the lion king (lol i know, comparing a G Disney movie to a blood and guts war game). once you get to the rock back you hog up against and under the kind of over hanging part of the rock. make sure the hog is up against the rock nice and tight. now get unto the gunner position and make sure your back is pointed towards the rock. then just press E and you should just hop out of the gunner seat and right into the rock. (normally it takes a few tryes) once your inside the rock u can snipe out of the rock just fine. and the buty of it is that no small arms fire can get you cuz well your in the rock. but a rocket or grenade can. (Oh and BTW when your in the rock it looks like there is nothing around you but if u run and dont go n e where then your in).

Any use of the word bolded and Italicized is grounds for a blacklist. Please, be courteous to fellow forum posters. Thanks.

And besides, his join date is last week, maybe he thinks that he is offering some good advice to people less educated than him. Props to him, I say.

defining south = direction from blue to red base.
a very good sniping spot to have a defend er is just south of the rock by red cave, in the shadow.

yeah I have problems with directions on the pc lol, like left and right, which is confusing cuz you're either facing out from the base or towards the enemy base. but anyways... there is sniping behind the blue base, and also to the left of the blue base facing the red base, there's a little cove, it's great for games with no shields. have plenty of pistol and sniper ammo and you can spawn camp. I hate it but I love doing it. and then there's "sniper rock" which I can't get up to.

k if you want some help gettin to the sniper rock just do this: get a banshee and fly up to it. then turn around and hover so the back circles (thats all i can describe them as) are over the edge. then get out and ur in the best snipin spot in the map in my opinion

But if there are shees on the map "sniper's rock" becomes a death trap.

I love it when snipers go and do that becaues you snipe them as soon as they get out of the shee..

so.. spawn camping is lame and n***ish but taking advantage of glitches isnt?

spawn camping is sometimes a necessary strategy... glitching is lame.

DOn't think it's glitch more than just an oversight in the design of the map (it was originally made without banshees in mind).. it just has to do with the map geometry.
Anything is fair in love and war... about the only thing that ticks me off is TKing on purpose.
