BF2: I’m Just Here to Help
Still getting to know Battlefield 2 by playing off line. I decided to try a support player yesterday. Unlike BF 1942, in BF 2 there are no supply spots where you can get ammo. Somebody has to come along and replenish your ammo. I gave that a try.
Turns out I had no idea how to do that. I was able to throw little packs at the feet of my guys, they didn’t seemed all that interested. Another soldier and I were capturing a flag and I thought I’d resupply him by throwing out a pack. Well, I didn’t have throw-out-pack selected and I shot him about 3 times from two yards, um, he died.
I don’t know if the AI gets pissed but I was completely devastated, not really, and decided to hang that support stuff up till I figured out how to do it without killing my guys. I don’t know if the AI was happy about my choice or not.
