[Video] my APC (BTR) squad in action

Post by Meza82 »

im the SL of the apc squad (2 BTR's, locked). im driving the lead apc. i think a good strategy for apc's is to help the infantry and take the initiative, bringing the fight to the enemy.

please comment on the tactics/strategy of my leading of the squad.
(ps, my youtube channel has more PR vids, too)

General tips:
Make sure you don't record your mic, only record what comes in through the game.
Don't breathe so heavy ;)
Don't drive through the city, an alternate and more safer route is to just head around the forest.
When the gunner is shooting something, ignore what he is shooting and look elsewhere for other threats. Two people looking at the same place isn't as good as two people looking elsewhere.
To avoid the APC moving slightly when the gunner is shooting, press F3 or some other passenger position and tap F1 again, quickly switching. This will stop the APC/tank/etc. from sliding on gently sloping terrain.

SL Tips:
Utilize the other APC better, I noticed that for majority of the video the other one wasn't given clear orders.
Make an executive decision. If you're being shot and there is large infantry presence in the city, get out of there and wait for infantry support to move in. If the inf isn't there, its almost always a 100% mortality rate.

That is what I personally think, but it was a good vid mate, good to see APC's supporting infantry rather than running around light tanking (even though its what they're good at :razz :)

This, this THIS!
You'll end up doubling or tripling your kills and halving how much you die

Nice video!
