-Eggs are your friends. -Sniping is your other friend, younger, reliable, but occasionally pisses itself and dies; switch up your style. -Aim for the head. -When sniping, never shoot in the same place twice. -If they notice you, run. -Wallshooting is your friend. -Grenades have a larger blast radius than you'd think. -Aim for a VAK every once in a while; the VACs panic and lose some coordination, follow through with another headshot. -HRs are bonus points. -Jumping in a regular gun fight is your friend. -Protip: Don't miss. -Always hide your name; unless showing it to another raider to indicate you need heals. -Move in mysterious ways; movement is your friend. -Cliffs are your friend. -Combine Egg Jumps, Cliffs, and Sniping for Maximimum Efficiency. -If you're decent, take on VAC/VAK in a 1 v 1. Retreat at the sign of 2; Don't get teamed. -Take VAK guns from the armoury if you get the chance; they give you an edge if all you have is a sniper. -Have a teammate, and use him wisely; to an extent. -Going undetected is the best way to fight. -Slip by them by egg jumping, or wait for them to be distracted with another raider -Switch up your spawns often, don't follow a discernable pattern. It throws them off. -If they spot you, but cannot reach you, wait them out until they're occupied again for another shot. -Use the M98 and M224. these are the best weapons that give results. -Press F on the Sniper. It gives you "BatVision"; you see all the VACs outlined in a red haze.
tl;dr: READ IT YOU LAZY BUM, THIS IS HELPFUL
Hope it sorta helps. Courtesy of yours truly.

Well at-least we get more raiders now that you put this thread up.
One does not simply, beat the Flood-Check. |

Added tips:
-Pistols are your friend; use the revolver to clean up wounded VAC/VAK -Use the Raider Base to talk with other raiders; develop a plan. -When in the armoury, drop your hats, grab any gun, and put on one of their helmets. Put the gun in "Patrol Mode" (hit V) and it'll fool Penders and Low Level VAC, and make Higher Level VAC and VAK think twice before shooting at the red haze the helmet emits. -If you have to speak, do so in TeamChat (%%) -If you have to hide, do so. -Don't go AFK while hiding, or sitting on a cliff! You put yourself at risk for being killed!

@tehnoob
It may not work in small amount, although a friend and I got in numerous times, with decent KDRs, took the flag a number of times when it was official, if plenty of skilled raiders followed this guide, it would work. |

That's correct. But a large number of **skilled** raiders could pull it off. |

Added tips:
-When using your teammate, take out key targets; turn fights into 2 v 1s -Your life is more important than your objective. If you've got the flag, run if you can't hold it. -Advice from a Sniper: Be polite, be efficient, have a plan to kill everyone you meet. -If a HR or Corporal decides to give positions, use the line up as free food for your sniper rifle. -Take the higher ground. -Terrain is your friend, but certain friends stab you in the back. Use blocky terrains, avoid the small hilly bits. They render jumping useless, which means you're an easy kill for someone who can jump. -When sniping, avoid other snipers like the plague. They can counter your cozy sniper watch with 2 quick shots. -Always assume a VAC/VAK can aim decently or better. -Meshes are your friend. Hide in them. -Always assume a VAK/VAC has their sniper with their "BatVision" on; Always assume someone knows where you are and is lining up his sights aimed at your ghoulies. -Grenades are your friend. Use them to lure your enemy into an easier place to be shot at. If they don't move, their loss. They'll die. -Eggs have limitations. Don't try to use it absurdly. -Nobody cares about your KDR; expect to be dying. ALOT. -Don't give up.

Woah... that's actually sound advice.
I came here thinking it would be some troll.
