Its interesting to see strategies develop, both the good and the bad. Here are two I have been seeing work: 1) Squads of three, one up, two back. If the pointman gets frozen, the two behind can unfreeze him. They then hold until the orgianal point rejoins, and continue. It seems almost impossible to stop this. 2) The willing sacrifice: One player stands up in a spot with a clear view of the battlefield. Gets frozen, but then teammates only partially unfreeze him. Now, he can serve as a forward observation post, without any recourse fo rth eother team. One that does not: Strafing a spawn area is so much fun, everyone tries to do it. They tend to come down one side or the other. Setting up a fire trap on the side yields a steady supply of overly aggressive opponents to blast away at. Hey, I'm told I have to post 20 times. Its either stuff like this, or pictures of cats. Edited January 7, 2013 by TheNaughtyMonkey Pharticus, LordOfChaos, jimboom and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Freeze people at certain places to control choke points, create cover, etc. I would take practice and effective communications to make these things work. A good competition clan could do it well I think. NottyMonkey, my_slave and jimboom 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

Oh and I love FT, but it hates me FT is definitely a tactical game... when team mates work together, they are almost unstoppable... but really the map dictates what tactics should be used... smaller maps... its run and gun everyone to their own... larger maps you will see many campers. like Cheeze. Cheese suks btw... so everytime you see him in freeze tag... do not thaw him! lol jimboom, TheCheeseyCrusader, my_slave and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It forces good team play. Like Chaos said, maps do dictate tactics to a point but regardless, if you don't play as a team and help defrost, you have a tough time coming out victorious. Either way, its all fun and just a game. jimboom, Noears711XI and Belted 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards
