w00t! First hatemail.

It's difficult to decipher, because the guy was raging so much it sounded like he swallowed his mic, but it went something like this:

"Go back to call of duty, you piece of shit! You think you're so good with your fucking mines. Go back to call of duty and quit ruining this game you piece of shit!"

I responded via text: Cry more.

him: "[muffled nonsense too much yelling] GO BACK TO CALL OF DUTY AND QUIT RUINING *MY* GAME!" (serious emphasis on "my," as if he's the king of BC2)

me, text: Your tears put a smile on my face.

I was hoping for more correspondence with my new best friend, but he rage-quit. I'm going to stalk him next time I see him online, and just shit all over his fun.
Sorry, but AT Mines are not some CoD strategy, or something. You can't expect to be able to hop in a tank, put the pedal to the metal, and take flags like it's no trouble. I almost want to write him again and tell him about V. Elect, but it would be lost on him.

i wish i could get hate mail :[

Hey, man. I only put a little bit more time in than you have, and like I said, this is my first.
You'll get some, eventually!

I've only gotten hate mail once and it was from MISTER ZOMBEE lol.

And LOL at the guy raging over AT mines.

I never get hatemail in BC2. I've had one message from somone saying they wanted my tags and that's it.

Just out of interest, what was this guy's gamertag?

It's definitely funny when you get it.

I've been getting some because of my accruing smoke launcher kills 90 kills so far 5 hatemail messages from it.

Wait wait... So if he said mines are noob tactics... Why does he have a gold star 2 on them? He kinda just contradicted himself there.

Honestly, I don't get much hatemail, nor want to do anything that does but I have a few things that got me funny hatemail.

1. I knifed the UAV dude in White Pass first base as defenders. (The station was on the attackers first base; Got myself killed from the boundary timer.)
He raged so bad he sent me a message saying, *Rant rant rant* /rant. your tags will be mine, then I will rhape you and your family when you sleep.
2. Placed an AT mine to the left of the UAV station where the UAV would spawn. The heli UAV not the station. *Boom* Destroy vehicle +100. Killing enemy + 50.
_____ sent you a message.

Does the UAV spawn on the same side of the station, no matter what the map is? Because if this is so, I'm going to start doing this.

If its in the open its to the left.
If its inside, I think Nelson's bay is the only one inside, it spawns outside.
It doesn't work 100% of the time but its quite funny.

I've never really used mines. I can't stand not having my Gustav. Are they worth using over the rocket launchers?

Higurashi - Fuck yes.

Spawn with extra explosives, and lay your mines down in the shallow water, shadows of trees, or some rubble. You can also hide them over the tops of hills, so that tank drivers don't see them as they approach from the opposite direction.

Once you've got your six mines laid down, then just try to survive with your SMG for a while, unless you feel like picking up a kit. Once you die, you can always bring out your launcher.

It's worth it for the +30 vehicle damage, +100 vehicle destroyed +50 enemy killed (which you can get four times if you've got a full Bradley). It's easy points, and it does a lot of good for your team. You've just got to find the best hiding spots for the mines, and you're golden.

Mines are also pretty good for destroying MCOMs, but some people think it's a cheap way to attack.

I constantly use V-Elect now when in a vehicle.

That alone has saved me many un-needed AT mine deaths.

AT Mines on shore lines of maps with sea vehicles = Water Mines.

Alright, the next time I play, I'll start using AT mines.

LOL how can you get upset over mines? I once got intense hatemail for using the VSS, I thought that was pretty funny.
