Defending or Attacking from above as Supply Class
If you can get to a high position above the flag or choke point, toss about some supplies then choose grenade and spam the area with grenades...

keep tossing supplies to replenish and you can stay there all day...

don't go near the edge of the roof to look though...keep well back and you won't be noticed....just spam away...be aware of your team mates positions though, and let them know you're grenading blindly

did I mention not going near the edge? :ph34r:

I STILL find it hard to get the best out of the Support MG...

I got better when I took Norm's hints (some time back) to go prone and use short bursts - but even so I can't understand why the MG seems so inaccurate at range (when the real thing isn't).

Still, again, like the sniper rifle, having a weapon like the MG being easy to use and accurate over range would perhaps inballance the infantry game (?). We might end up with a game full of snipers and MGers! LOL

I wish you had the CHOICE of what weapon you had in a class - I would play Support if I could use an M16 for example...

And if people don't believe that these weapons are given to the different classes in order to balance the game - take a look at Anti-tank class...

MP5/smg as standard for AT troops? I think not!

It's all about ballance - an M16 carrying ATer would just be too powerful.

...Er...Rant over! LOL

To be honest I think its down to the individual alot,I cant aim too good with standard rifles,but that mg can pick of a sniper layed on a hill a good distance away,dont figure does it?Was on TG server the other night with Dewey and I was asked to play AT(MEC).I had a ball with that gun.I must admit the MG does take a long time to get use to,but its never going to be as accurate as a rifle because of the reasons Ranger put forward.I think I am doomed to use inaccurate/powerless weapons in BF2.
