Question about being targeted by enemy commander

**Sfrichck** · 12-23-13, 02:14 PM

So i was curious about this as I have never played as a commander yet, when you get targeted is it just the commanders choice or you are doing something special to get this treatment? Ive been targeted a few times and was curious about this as usually I am getting targeted when i am on a streak or just plain annoying people like last night

Yes. You get the option to be targeted by the enemy commander when you earn a very high point streak in one life.

Ok thankyou I was wondering about this. esp last night when my squadmates were saying "What the hell did you do?" when i got targeted. All i did was blow up a building and kill a bunch of guys with 25% health. So being targeted is a good and bad thing

You have to be on a kill-streak. The commander can only declare a high value target that meets certain criteria (not sure what that is other than on a kill streak). The red doritos get a light square around them like the squad leaders on your team do. When you see that you can set them as a high value target.

6 kill streak and you can be targeted. It's fucking annoying. It's basically a punishment for being good.

Is it automatic (I believe so) or does it require a commander doing something?

Tenrou, that's the glass half empty thinking. Think of it as a way to get the enemy to come to you and rack up even more kills!

Commander initiated.

commander has to set the hvt.

It's the commander going "oh shit. THIS person is bleeding tickets disproportionate to their own life/death cycle... EVERYONE! KILL THIS PERSON NOW!!"

No different than in BF2 where the commander might start dropping arty on a particular squad he sees repeatedly. Except in this case he lets EVERYONE know "there they are!"
