Default Tactical insertions

What do you think of them? Do you usually get awesome revenge kills with them? Or do you just end up getting spawn killed? I've never really used it, so... I want some opinions on it

I have used it successfully in ctf, demolition, and tdm. In ctf you drop it somewhere behind the enemy flag so when you die your right there to take the flag. In demolition on offense you can place it close to a bomb site to take the enemy by off guard. Lastly in tdm you can use it to flank the enemy.

When I was a challenge whore, I did the jack-in-the-box and it wasn't that hard tbh. Just place them in less obvious places and pop out and kill 2-3 people who think they can cover the bomb defuser/planter. I got quite a few hilarious spawnkills versus me when they commando-knife me but I got some sweet semtex revenge kills over buildings as I knew where they were when I spawned In the end though, I'd rather take the semtex over any equipment. Tac-insertions are "worthless" in this game as they contribute with more cons than pros.

You might be able to plant one on the bomb so when someone goes to defuse they have the press "use" twice as the first was wasted killing a tac insert but I've never tried and defusing might be prioritised.

I don't think so, but someone who actually plays Search will need to confirm.

They are great for some objective games. CTF, Sabatoge, Demolition, etc. My favorite thing to do when I see one is just leave a claymore right in front of it.

They do not work. Otherwise what's to stop you putting one in the back of their spawn and then team downing with an RPD?

I used to use them a lot on my sniper class and it helped me keep good positions. I sometimes use before getting in a big battle. Place it then go around corner into fire fight. If you die you spawn close opposed to having to run all the way from the spawn. Try it out and see what works for you. If you are used to grenades be careful, I have pulled out a tac insert when I'm expecting to throw a semtex and have gotten blasted.

Pretty sure all Demo spawns are set to one place/area. So it's easy to spawnslaughter people on it, especially with TI's.

Don't play Demo, so I'm not 100% sure on the spawning.

Smart if you're in a tough spot that it's hard to get someone at. For example, on top of the building in high rise.

Here's a tip. If someone kills you by your TI, and they're waiting to kill you, switch to a riot shield. They won't expect that at all.

I guess the key would be to put the TI somewhere you aren't standing, everytime I see a TI I think "Neat, free kill"

Much better use than the intended use. I guess the only drawback is if you get killed somehow you're spawning in the middle of a high traffic area.

I've always wanted to setup a Tac Insert in the most obvious place, like the middle of that room in Underpass or the middle of the cave in Wasteland.

I mainly use them in CTF, whether I be a midfielder or a runner. When you're a runner it works very well, and for a midfielder it's good if you get sniped and want to stay where you are.

Set them in S&D on Wasteland in the middle of the map, then pick people off. That's all I can think of.
