airburst tip.

Lilkilla · 10-18-2005

I noticed this neat trick the other day when I tried to kill this annoying guy on a very high ledge on citadel. If there is someone camping above you on a ledge and you cant get to them for some reason, heres what you do. Take out your airburst and aim at the ledge. Make sure you aim at the edge of the ledge, not in the air. When you have aimed at the edge hold down fire and your airburst should say locked. Then step forward just a couple of steps then aim right above the ledge. Then fire and your airbust should explode right above the ledge and kill the guy there! It only works if hes right next to the edge camping but it is extremely deadly. That is the good thing about airburst. If you cant shoot him, lock on and use your own creative ways to eliminate them.

Hope you liked the tip. Now get on socom and blow **** up.

i always prefer a launcher to m67/he handhelds. ive done that before, that and getting people that camp around corners wiating for you to get close, they never expect to be out tacticed in those situations.

lol yeah airburst is mainly used for campers, but great tip!. For close maps like citadel i like airburst better but i hate the damn m8! lol once i get the other airburst ill be good. For open maps, i use 203s, if you can shoot a 203 accurately, almost no one kill kill you if you know where they are. I was playin the map that is the last asian level (anterda i think?) as terr i hd ak47 and a 203 there was a sniper for back at the seals spawn, we literlly had like 4 snipers trying to get him i took out my launcher aimed it and shot the gernade, then i see i get a kill! lol it was great cus i was very far away.

throwing nades into a gunfight is always a good way to win, een if it is cheap. 203's and gl-67's are the stronger versions and better for long range stuff, especially anti sniper if you can learn to judge the curve. im already hearing some newer crappier players complaining about them, but theyre quickly quited by the better players on their team who point out the fact they can use them also.

^^ yeah i learned how to manage/aim the 203s really good and i i know where any one is they will die lol. I bombed the island in Harvester and got 2 kills

Good topic on the airburst but please notice that there several posts like this one if you think it had been discovered dont post up a new thread plz

Bleh, personally, I think they should limit it (GL's/AirBurst) to 1-2 shots max and/or make them super heavy to weigh them down. It's such a lame nooby weapon.
