i love taking enemies crates, got an AC130 from one before, im sure the person who it was supposed to be wasnt happy about it

I don't usually bother with Care Packages as anything good you get out of them doesn't count towards your kill streaks. I'd sooner wait till Pred and get a kill or two and use that to get to Harrier strike etc.

ha anyone like using crates as bait ? ie setting up a claymore near one or switching out to a light machine gun and watch as your enemies sprint over towards the "un-guarded" crates

I'd only do that if it was something I didn't want like a counter UAV or ammo. But you'll always get team-mates taking it before the enemy so it doesn't really work unfortunately

never happened to me(have been flattened by own crate though:o).Dont mind other players taking it better your own team than the others.

Agreed, If i die before i get it I prefer a team mate to get it, generally I like to provide cover if a team mate is picking one up.

Its always a pain down when you get Chopper Gunner/Ac130 as the care package and then get killed just before you get it and someone else gets it!

If you actually do this, then you are an ass.

To the OP, I've one question.

Do you take a crate on someone who is there waiting on it themselves, or just if they have been killed etc?

If the second, then no problem at all. As you say, better you than the enemy. But if you are stealing their crates by running to it quicker than the person who actually used skill to get their killstreak,then I'd be complaining about you too. I'd also probably file a complaint and blocking playing with you again. I hated this when I used to call them in. Only thing worse is the dicks who kill you to take it.

I don't bother calling in crates anymore, cause I find the Pred, Harrier and Chopppe the best combo. But I always run past them if someone else is there waiting. I'll also usually try to defend them for the two seconds it takes.

how do you block playing with someone.would be handy

OFC they give out how would you like it if you got a nuke and then got killed before you used it, and they guy who killed you got to use your nuke instead???? People have get kills before they get the packages so they deserve to use and not have some teammate stealing their stuff. Its diff with ammo though, i used use packages and if i got a ammo i would leave it there for my team unless i needed it myself!!

Anyway should this not be under the megabitch thread?

Soby · 07-03-2010 09:43PM

well in fairness you can capture you own crates faster than anyone else so unless ya can nearly always get it..Hate the way it comes up they "saved your crate from the enemy" though..no they didnt they robbed it :P

It's older than that thread. So it'd need a merge.

Re the blocking, you can just submit a player review, and select to Avoid the player. Given the numbers playing, it probably isn't much use.

If the guy calling it in is alive, I'll cover him, if he's shot then I reckon it's fair game, as I said, better us than the enemy. Sorry about the SUPER late reply, only after checking back on this thread. I fail.

You win as a team you lose as a team, thats the logic behind any team based game, so who cares whether some of your team mates take your care packages or you get them yourself as long as it contributes to a win.

If I see a care package lying around I have no problem taking it, whether it belongs to a team mate or enemy.
