    Stick with a squad and sabotage buildings when we get into firefights or take a sniper rifle and give long range support to my teammates.

    Depends.

    As Battlescout, I'll take accuracy upgrade/enhanced senses, smg2, concussion grenades, and run around airbursting them and mowing people down. I'll sab shit, coordinate with my squad to get buildings down. Alternatively, if the comm is around, I'll stun him if I'm set up for that. If I just want to piss off the enemy team, I'll take hide, get myself into a glitch spot in their main, and just sab away whilst chatting in teamspeak or listening to music.

    Very importent. Get yourself something heavy that you can put on top of your crouch key or else you might get typewriter's cramp from doing this.

    Get an Engi(maybe more for NF) together and hop in a jeep

    sab + seismic => base killer

    usually you can fuck an entire base up before enemy even aware of your existence. kill spawner won't get the chance.

    It's more efficient at killing rax/VF than dual UML.

    with an apc with a decent engine you can do it alone, dualGL/UGL is the shit for that (i really miss 3xGL APCs). additionally you cant get hurt directly, get unlimited ammo and health from the apc in the case you get attacked PLUS eventually there will be people spawning at your location and if not - once the danger is over you still can killspawn as engi ...

    Generally I will rush a life tube then pickup marchers, after that I'll finish building runed axe/steam boots and farm MKB asap.

    I take it for 3 reasons.

    1. Playing district and want to see enemies on minimap.

    2. Playing NF and NFHR sucks dick.

    3. Bored and feel like driving tanks around like a pillock.

    get an apc and have some players that are engies, drive to the ref points, sab them, drop one engie off to finish the ref point off and build a new one, and continue to the next ref point.
