Anyone out there have some good flanking/cover tactics?? I could really use them, where i play i am seriously outmatched in fire power, rushing is suicidal unless i have massive cover so i need some skills to level the playing field.

ok u need flanking moves? simple have a 3 man group (1 spotting 1 shooting and 1 read to fade away for the flank)when you find ur target have the spotter find out ther exact position and tell him to tell the shooter where there at after this the spotter and shooter start laying down paint and the flanker fades away in the distraction have the flanker come from the sides or (if possible) back and hes suppose to either pick off somebody or start shooting at them once this happens the two shooters move up in full force and hopefully take out ur targets

The most important thing to do if you want to flank is to STAY WIDE. The guys who run along the sides of the field are called "tape runners". If you're a tape runner, nobody can get around you. The only way to make it past a tape runner without shooting him is to go on the inside of the field past him. If you're a tape runner, it's a lot easier to get around your enemies.
My advice is to have 2 tape runners, one on each side, while your spare man provides cover. The competition will never know what hit 'em.

the best advice i can give is to keep moving dont shoot until your where you want to be this just gives away your position, and it makes the other team more aware to what you are doing. keep moving and be paitent, the faster you move the more off balance it makes the other team. dont getr caught making your move otherwise its a waist of your time and it makes it eaiser for the other team to counter your move.

Hey I know what you meen being outgunned and outnumbered when all you need is just a chance. here are the best tips
FIRST GO FOR THE SIDE FOR THE LEAST AMMOUNT OF PEOPLE TAKE THEM OUT QUICK AND QUIETLY SNIPE OR GET HEAD ON BUT NEVER THE LESS QUIET.
ALWAYS RUN BELOW BUNKER AND PUSH HARD AND POP OUT THE SIDE HIT THE WEAK AND IT IS ALSO WISE TO GET MABYE TWO TEAMMATES WITH WHEN YOU ARE PULLING THIS OFF.

put 1 guy on the left and right side of the field to move up to snipe/scout. then if one takes fire the rest of the team moves the the guy taking fire while the other scout is already in a position to flank
