This post will, when done, hopefully provide starting Javelin targets leading to a high probability of demoralizing FIRST kills in TDM. Results not guaranteed. Remember, you're firing where you think they'll be in 5 or so seconds, not where they are when you fire.
Arkaden (Team RU):
I kid you not, that's the only one I can think of for Team RU. Team US, I aim where I was. If you hate DMH, you'll truly despise this.
Hardhat (from either starting position):
Millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced.
Here's where to aim to kill the campers SITTING ON the center pipe opening in hardhat:
Updated with safer firing position, per Alanim.
Credit goes to Y260 for this firing position:
Lockdown (Team Russia firing position #1):
That was actually my first try at that position ever (I usually shoot somewhere else, but it had low probability of a kill). It looks like a fail, and yes, I did step out a wee bit too far, but I got payback +1.
Lockdown (Team USA):
Usually works.
Resistance (Team Russia):
Before I made that clip, I had no idea what I was hitting; I only knew that it worked the vast majority of the time.
Dome (Team US):
Actually, you want to aim for the corner (of that container) closest to you, but time is a factor so I took what I got.
Dome (Team RU):
The fences do not block explosive damage.
Dome Dom (Team RU) (RejectionRole did this one)
Sweet!
Dome (Team Anti-Corner Campers):
Oh yes, I'll eat another death to get a payback + double kill + destroy a SAM turret all at once.
Bakaara (Team RU):
Aim through the smoke, slightly over the heli blade center. I know when I start on the other side, everyone clusters around that truck.
Bakaara (Team SO):
There's really two main ways to go, right? That one can be hit with minimal risk.
Mission (Team SO):
Javelins are also handy for clearing out the sniper nest at the top of the map.
Village (Team RU):
Safe and effective.
Village (Team SO):
Stand back against the wall or you'll shoot your eye out.
Village (Team SO alternate):
TMAR TN (or whatever his name is) inspired this. I get more kills consistently with the previous one, though.
Bootleg (Team RU):
Please note how wide the killzone is. This gets the fools in the hollow metal container, too.
Outpost (Team US):
Outpost (Team RU):
Seems to work most of the time.
Underground (Team US):
Sadly, I can only think of one potential starter for the other team, and it's not pretty. Next time I spawn Team RU, I'll try to hit it.
Fallen (not a starter, but useful anyways):
Please note where I aimed - it has to be that face if the camper is next to the wall up there. The Javelin is the most potent anti-open-air-camper tool you can have on that level.
Here's a map of it:
I was roughly at the yellow position. I aimed at the red. The green area is the kill zone.
You know what? That might be a good starter. Next time someone gets Fallen as Team US, try to hit that shot with the Jav and see if it gets anything.
