Artillery

[Ohioan]

Artillery is lame! Get in a tank and fight man to man. No more expresso latte mochachinos for your lazy weak little "hold the button down and get kills" artillery whores.

I can use artillery properly but dont out of choice. When you fire, the camera that moves is looking DIRECTLY at the projectile you fired. You can trace it's velocity and trajectory by sight that way. Sometimes, you're not going to get a shot into the spotted zone even after several attempts. You'll run out of ammo or get killed before that. Its just part of the game. Most artillery "whores" are pixel-aiming. They set the arty up somewhere and aim at a spot in the skybox that they have pre-tested and know that it will land the arty in your spawn or something else completely lame. Most GOOD artillery-users won't get a lot of kills, because people aren't stupid enough to keep spawning under fire, and some of THEM are smart enough to sneak out and kill the spammer..

Arty is pretty much a dead end either way you look at it. Its weak against vehicles unless you get a direct hit, its slow to reload inbetween shots (especially with the Brumbaar) and once you line up your sights on the spot, the flag is already taken and its friendly :P.
