    Re: Death to Goliath

    The mine bait only has to be under the Goliath when it goes up, since the mines will detonate wherever they are at that point (ie, right next to the panels/sides).

    Kinda makes the Goliath an enormous booby prize, though. Seems as though if it comes up against more than 3 or 4 infantry at once it's instantly toast (esp. engy's).

    It's most effective if the mines have already activated due to motion. The vehicle has less time (although with the Goliath, it doesn't matter much) to move out of the way.

    Goliaths are extremely easy targets for support nade spamming. It's pretty easy; toss your ammo crate by a wall, hide behind said wall, and just spam the Goliath till the cows come home. It's not like you're gonna miss something that's that slow and that big.

    Makes it a real easy target for engineers and vehicles, and makes it virtually impossible for the fat bastard to do anything but stand there and take it.

    Until the driver's team mates hop out and kill like they should. I personally prefer emp mines laid down in a linear pattern in the Goliath's path in combination with my roller mines, possibly taking out all of the panels with a pilum, and a rorsche. With the rorsche on East Bridge on Remagen you can take out the Goliath before it gets across if you're accurate.
    enf-Jesus its been like 12 minutes and you're already worried about stats?! :-P

    We kind of did it today on remagen, I only got 2 mines to follow the bait and explode together. But if we could get 5 out and get it is should work

    Re: Death to Goliath

    you were way to close frag...you have to lay them down so that they are not 'activated' by the goliath. Make a nice little pile off to the side and then throw the bait at the goliath. When you follow the goliath and lay them down 1 of 2 things will happen...

    1. They will activate and follow the goliath and hit it 1-2 aa time giving it time to repair

    or

    2. Laggy will be driving with his sonar on and get out and shoot you.

    I've heard of people using rollies to clear out the Titan corridors...never seen it in action. Are they using mine bait or is there something else to that trick?

    Seems a bit complicated...lay out a bunch of rollies without getting killed by the grenade spam, then throw a mine bait down the corridor to move the mines down by the defenders...then get an ace shot with the advanced sniper to detonate them?

    Someone please explain!

    Re: Death to Goliath

    The mine bait would make the mines go towards the defenders and explode, but only an idiot would stay right there next to them. Grenades are much easier to get in if you know the proper technique.

    I think it was more for the 'technique' factor...like some strange Rube Goldberg effect...

    I'm sure we could go on for days about degrading ways to die such as 'dusted' by the transport chopper...

    Or perhaps the way Angel killed me today...as she was camping our base on Remagen in a walker I decided to attempt to put an end to her ways with a 'Pilum up the vents'...of course being the bad-ass that she is she simply hits 'E' exiting her vehicle...on top of my head...getting the kill...

    I always love the non-descript death descriptions..."Someone A kills Someone B:...its almost like the program doesn't understand how to explain such an unlikely scenario...
