This was the best online capture the flag, spawn on your squad leader, get targets painted, and supply drops by the commander, jump from anything and parachute down multiplayer game from back in the day. Looks like servers are still running. I might get the PC fired up again for some C4-Jeep and bail-out explosive fun.
Fond memories:
- Once a Jet pilot guy kept raking us down, so I snuck in and laid out a C4 grid on the air strip to see if I could get him on his re-supply (you fly over the air strip to re-fill ammo). He came in low, click boom ---- big empty jet husk falls down.
- One sniper vs me as an assault kit. I knew he was out in some houses but the scope actually gave a sun flash and I just reflexively fired the grenade launcher at it way down a slope of buildings, and it somehow went right into this open roof window, boom. Dead sniper name rolls up.
- Capturing a base, the other team had a squad leader behind a wall to try and group spawn onto me. Somehow one clip fired at head high took out the whole squad as they spawned into my line of fire. I just sat there with my mouse button down.
- Grab jet, fly over building with sniper nest, bail out and parachute in to the top. Sneak around and knife kill all the scope eyed snipers.
- Toss 2 C4s to a jeep hood (Special Ops kit). Drive fast at a tank or group. Jump out and when the jeep rolls up, click BOOOM!
The modern BF games never but that type of fun back.
