Battlefield Heroes: A Gunners Guide by A.

First things first, if you have absolutely NO idea what Battlefield Heroes is, then you probably have not read my review on it. I would recommend reading that before you read this.
If you are a Gunner on Battlefield Heroes and are reading this then you came to the right place. I have compiled THE BEST tips and tricks that I have ever seen for gunners. So enjoy!
As a slow Gunner do you have Commando problems? Well here are some tricks to get back at those nasty Commandos: If you are confronted by a commando with a knife, use Leg It to get out of knifing range while shooting the living daylights out of him. BUT, be warned if you go too far you are out of knifing range but right into sniping range, so do not go overboard with running away. If you are confronted by a long distance sniper, strafe, jump, and be as random as you can be until you are in range of the sniper. The more random you are the harder it is to hit you. Think a Commando is over there? THEN FIND OUT!!!!! If you think you see a cloaked Commando just fire away and see if your right. Who knows? You might hit something. And lastly, stay in groups. If a Commando even dares to try and fight a group, he will get OWNED.
And now some tips to help with your game: Even if you are the slowest character class you still need to try to save your Leg It for battles. It will give you the upper hand. If you want to be go on top of roofs use a bazooka and jump while firing your bazooka at the wall. You will get some massive air and get on top of roofs. If you have to deal with far away targets, strafe toward them until in effective range. And finnaly, if those pesky flyin' machines are getting on your nerve, then use a long distance machine gun. They do a lot of damage and even work when the plane is far away.
I hope this guide helps your character in Battlefield Heroes! Thanks a ton for reading!

Review on Battlefield Heroes by A.

Battlefield Heroes is a free online war game MMO. It has a cartoonish feeling to it, and very well made. The game does not have a single player story mode, but instead you battle against other players on servers. Battlefield Heroes offers thousands of custimization options, including a barrage of weapons. Each weapon presents different strengths and weaknesess. There are many areas to play on Battlefield Heroes like Seaside Skirmish, Buccaneer Bay, and Midnight Mayhem. You can choose between two different factions and three player types. The factions are: the Royals and the Nationals. When you make your character you will have to choose a player type. There are Soldiers, Commandos, and Gunners. Again, each with different strenghts and weaknesess. In each Map, there are different vehicles you can use to win. Here they are: Jeeps, Tanks, Planes, and AA guns. I do think they could have made more vehicles though, like a mounted machine of some sort. The vehicles have strenghts and weaknesess also. Battlefield Heroes is rated T for violence and drug reference. With all the gunfights,yes, there is violence , and you can customize your character to have a cigar. Also there is a chat bar in the game and players sometimes use bad language. In the game you earn Valor Points to rent clothing and weapons, but to buy, you need to use real money to buy BattleFunds which will buy you the weapons or clothing. The BattleFunds are somewhat reasonably priced, but still the game is not completely free if you want to buy things from the in-game shop. You can make friends with other players and play with them using a handy feature that lets you see if your buddy is online, and join him on the on the certain server they are on. You can also rent a server and invite your friends for a battle. Your character can level up too. When you level up to level ten then you start getting Prestige Ranks (General, Specialist, Captian etc.). Overall, this game is a must play, with vast maps, incredibly high replay value, and great gameplay, I would recommend this game to anyone. Try it out and tell me what you think!
