Not sure where this goes, but...., some interesting things in Barbarossa Options

[Zach]

Hi there, I'm not sure if this has been discovered by anyone yet (or the few players that saw me do it this morning reported it), nor am I sure where it goes, so I'll put it here.

Yesterday I had no internet for most of the day and I eventually got bored and decided to do some exploring in the Barbarossa map. What I did was see if it is possible to hop inside a base while it has not been opened yet. Well, I found some interesting things.

The Russian 2 can be jumped in using a medium tank with a jeep. If the tank is position to the side facing the Russian 3, you can (if lucky) jump on the tank, jump on the turret, and then get inside the base. Once inside, you cannot plant--but you can grab the bazooka and shoot at the base from inside and spawn kill. If you are not so lucky, then you need a jeep. Get the jeep next to the tank, jump on it, and then jump on the tank.

The Russian 3 can also be entered, but it is far harder. I managed to tank the super heavy Russian tank next to it, get a jeep and jump on it, and jump from the turret onto 3. But I've only done that once. Easier to do is get the heavy tank, park it next to the base, park a light tank next to it, and a jeep. Jump from the jeep to the light tank's turret, then from there to the heavy tank's turret, and then from there to the base.

I tried jumping in the German 2 (but only with a medium tank), and it wasn't possible. It might be with a heavy tank. German 1 is off limits, I think. As is German 3 and Russian 1.

There are also lesser places that can be jumped on. The house outside of the Russian 1 (the one that has the bazookas) can be jumped on with a medium (or light) tank and jeep (or just a tank, if you can jump on one without a jeep). The shed near the German 2 could be jumped on with a tank and a jeep. You can stand on machinegun on the Russian jeep (never tried it with the German one), and so maybe can get up there that way. The shed in the German spawn could be jumped on with a tank, but invisible walls prevent you from standing on it. You can stay on the edge, however. To my knowledge, all of the buildings between the Russian 2 and German 1 cannot be jumped on. Only two little sheds that provide little to no advantage. The rest have invisible walls. I don't think any of the buildings near the Russian 3 could be jumped on, either. Nor could the burning tanks in the spawn (except one of them).

I'll have screenshots in a bit.

I understand what you are saying about the stats being unfair because everyone does things differently, but you are way off again about me sniping. I really want to know why people think All I do is snipe in Cassino??? Yes, I rule with spawning, but that is not my whole game there. For example, see my stats in Cassino here:

You can see that about 70% of all my kills are with the rifles. Not 100% of those are spawn kills. There are many that are on the run that I get from the window, or across the way shooting at the window. Why do you always say all I do is spawn kill? If I had to guess, I would say about 40% of my kills are spawn kills. Nowhere near your 95% that you said.
