Dumb newbie questions?

[legacy-Adamo]

1. How do you get those 'flying' things to go up?

2. I figured out that you can rebuild power nodes by using the alt-fire on the Link Gun. But, I found that when the status bar of the node was 'full' nothing changed. Shouldn't the game say 'Power Node constructed'? Am I doing something wrong?

3. What's the best 'anti-personnel' weapon?

4. What's the best 'anti-armor' weapon?

5. How do you 'fix' vehicles? Also, with the Link Gun?

6. Which weapons have that 'zoom' on them besides the Lightning Gun and, obviously, the Sniper Rifle?

I think that's it for now!

thanks

1) Press 'Jump'

2) It should say "red/blue power node constructed"

3) Depends on what you are good at using

4) avril, secondary mini-gun, rockets

5) secondary link gun

6) super shock rifle (instagib), tank cannon, tank mini gun, hellbender turret (back seat), some other turrets that are ground based

If you're simply repairing it may not say this. It will make a sound though...kinda built sounding sound. :up:

Just a note about the AVRIL, the missle will only lock on the vehicle if you keep the crosshair on the vehicle.

And both types of target painter have a zoom.

[legacy-MatG]

Correct.

(Just clarifying)

[legacy-Coriolis]

Just adding this and that:

1. To get down again, press and hold the 'Crouch/Duck' button... or wait till someone helps you with an AVRIL missile.

2. If you´re reparing a node, it will not show an explicit message when you´re finished, it will just make the same sound as if you completed building up a node from scratch. However, you can easily tell when the node is fully build up: Check your ammo display - if the number doesn´t decrease anymore while you´re firing at the node, it´s at max health.
Note that you cannot repair the Power Core in your team´s base though.

another thing- both painters (ion/target) have zooms.

That goes for the missles on the raptor as well.

[legacy-w0lf2oo1]

No you don't need to keep crosshair on them with raptor if firing missiles.

[legacy-CREMBELS]

you can tell if you have finished reparing a vechcle because your ammo stops counting.

and for nodes it stops being transperant and all the vechcles appere around it
