Tactics for TAGging

I was playing on a server the other day and I found this very interesting.

 

Unfortunately I was not on TS with my Teammates so coordination was not the best, but worked decent.

 

On the desertic map ( can t remembr the name), where missiles are a must, I got a TAG as BA, I jumped on a Tank to be carried quickly to the hot spot on the battlefield, then I infiltrate behind enemy lines and I started Tagging stationary enemy mechs from a distance of 400 - 500 mtrs and calling targets for my missile launchers when my TAG was solid.

 

I chose big targets as priority, as Maulers, Madcats, Catapults, so they were slow enough to not dodge missiles too easily.

 

That worked out very well, I saw showers of missiles hitting my targets and I was getting good points too.

 

It may sound boring, considering you are not really killing anyone, but I found it very intriguing tho ! On a Squad of 4, with 2 launchers, 1 Medium range (cannons or lasers) as launchers escort and 1 BA as forward Tagging unit, I can see this having a pretty good result on open maps :)

 

Anyone is up to testing this next time we get together ?

In addition to that I find elementals with tag are better that the raven due to size. People have a habit to focus on the large targets dissmissing the toads as a low threat. In the little ruins I found rooms the toad fits in to and the mechs cannot hit you. So, you can have cover and concealment to run to while lazing.

Heheh YEAH !!

 

glad we got you intrigued MH6 :)

 

however, remember is still a beta, there will be some pain in the neck about some stuff but is extremely promising and most importantly Devs are working hard to fix and check issues, a Kudo to them :)

 

A game as Mechwarrior can be played in several ways but is the player 's maturity making the difference. If you want to play it as "run n fire" you can, but really.. better if you choose another game :)

 

I know you like mature play-role and you will not be unsatisfied with MWLL :)

 

See you around :)
