I mainly play as Falck, (so Medic) and I always recommend fellow Falck players to equip the Ammo Crate. That way, you can keep resupplying your Syrette Pistol to heal your teammates and yourself, and you can resupply yourself & teammates with general new, fresh, delicious ammunition.

I think that is the best loadout and it keeps the logistics ribbons rolling in.

@DaveTheBrave_USA, pretty much! It's kind of a win/win situation. 🙂

    • As indicated earlier, vehicles can be really powerful in the right hands. Having squadmates using VOIP in your vehicle can make them damn near indestructible. This is especially true of the ELBC-Ram and the MAV: They're unstoppable when loaded up with players communicating enemy locations, movements and so on.
    • The third seat in the MAV is the best seat, provided that it has the anti-personnel rocket pods equipped.
    • Extended magazines save lives.
    • By the same token, the LMGs are utter beasts in this game.
    • The reload button also has an undocumented "summon enemy" feature.
    • High rate of fire weapons are, in my view at least, generally just better than semi-auto or lower RoF weapons (with the exception of the SFAR).
    • Pick one weapon from each class. Work on those and only those weapons from their class. Switch them around as necessary to complete the weeklies. This week's, for instance, asks you to get assault rifle and marksman kills/assists.
    • SOFLAMs are great for spotting for your team, area denial, and generally annoying vehicles. You can still get great scores with it, even if you don't get that many kills. It really helps the team too by putting infantry on the minimap for them.
    • Be careful where you drop vehicles or Angel's crate. You can teamkill with them. Inadvertently, of course.
    • Look at the weekly missions in the battlepass screen - completing them can give your progress a massive boost.
    • Some specialists are more teamplay-oriented than others. Falck and Angel are especially so. Mackay and Sundance... Not so much.

      That made me laugh as it's so true.

        I can't claim credit for it, sadly.

        Hat-tip to @LS5_71 who made the comment initially here.
