I like to goto the western hay field and go not up against up to the fence because its light but right near the lump and slowly go up, eventually you'll be up to the left of the BIG ranch house right then I just sprint fast and if i have a teammate thats a friend we wont do anything fancy we just run in and plant, but I really disagree with going around the whole helicopter area and clearing it. Thats where smoke nades come in just pray your teammates will smoke it out with you.

//edit I dont like this level1!

Use your peripheral vision to see through the fog.

Assault: When you land on the road that runs east <> west, take up positions in the corners facing down the fields and take out defense coming up the fields before crawling all the way down.

Defense: M249 west of stables behind the treeline (not on the edge of the field because you'll be naded) to take out any assault coming through the west field.

I always keep prone, move slow and never move somewhere before using my peripheral vision to see what's there first.

Good place to stand is in the stables. In the right hand corner there is a dark spot and the Opfor never realy look at this area, or at least dont get a change because you can take them out before then. You also have a great view of the Objective.

Split up your team, left and right. The hay bales are crucial for cover. Learn how to use them. Those going right can usually rush a little further before they get into grenade range. Saws should stay a little back for cover. When you do break through on right, someone should inspect the building with the upstairs, awhile others should go to silo and approach the chopper from that way. Stable is always a good place for defensive men, so don't turn your back on it. The shed is also used, though a cooked nade should tidy it up nicely. Watch the farm roof. Smoke can be very helpful, as long as you don't blind your team.

Just don't be hasty, JRTC is a patient map.

It all depends wether u play with live fire or MILES.
With Miles, bails give good cover and help ur advance. With live fire, bails are deadly trap since bullet penetration was invented.

My hint with live fire is to advance on a side while the 249 give A LOT of cover fire, while with Miles my hint is to advance cautiously using peripheral vision to spot e far.

Also, don't forget, put gamma&brightness at max to play farm at his best.
Hope that helps.

ive started playing AA again since 1.9 came out and since than i havent played this map yet.

it all depends on your teammates...if you play with the ppl that know that map better than their own backyards,yes it can be very fun.

Just wanted to point out a slight flaw in the Hay Bale cover logic. Any defensive team worth it's salt will have the SAW gunner rake the bales first with blind fire. It may not always result in a ton of kills, but one thing is for sure, it'll injure alot of players assaulting, and make it alot harder for you to accomplish your objective. Also, with the SAW gunner raking positions, it'll cause the assault team to slow their advance, seek cover, and open them up to an advancing defensive team, who will nade the fields. Alot of time, in order to catch the defense off guard, moving slowly, and looking for cover just won't cut it. Don't let the defense get complacent, and feel comfy. Rush them hard every once in awhile, and eve strongside rush them, just to keep them on their toes. Make them aware that they'll have to be guessing every round, what the assault will do. Assault will win it's fair share, if they can accomplish this, and keep the defense off balance.

Very few people play JRTC farm raid and when playing its either on the Miles 34 east server or the [JAG] live fire server.

I recommend that you join one of these servers and watch how either members of the [JAG], [IHS] or [NN] clan play. They are all specialists and all really good.

If Def is strong, they will generally rush the fields, best bet is to have your squad spread out over east, west and mid to take out the early rushers and then to move in slowly. Turn up brightness/contrast and use the edges of your screen to look through the fog.

Keep in mind who is situated where...ie if all players in west are down, be sure that you will get flanked.

Once you get past the fields, move slowly, listen for footsteps as they are a dead give away on this map.

Alternatively if you like being a crazy rusher, run into east field after landing, throw smoke grenades and run to the ranch house. Sometimes works, sometimes not. Best done with in combination with the SAW

One thing to note is that if you get near the hind very early on in the game, secure the objective as defence generally will not be defending it early on.

Tnx for the complement , we old farmers thank you.

i prefer to wait 1 minute because they are always shooting and the i jump out of the side door and then i walk beside the edge and go to the bunkers and kill all enemy's not doing the objective

because killing the enemy is easier and you get more points
obj.=30
enemy=10
and winning is points to so kill kill kill

thanks all, i needed these tips too.

depends where you want to use the tactics : in pubbing or in matchplay. In matchplay, it's more a matter of adjusting your actions to what you assume the opfor to be doin'. And that doesn't count only for JRTC. You can rush/move slow, take objectives or go for the kills, it all depends on how strong your team is and how strong their team is

be sure that there is someone that takes the lead and everybody listen to it

because that is the most important thing according to me

opperate as a team
so be a teamplayer

Thanx every1 4 the nice tips on the Farm... I got a buddy of mine that's really into this map... Maybe i'm able 2 beat him finnaly..

I always like the position on the rock behind the silo's...

ty i realy love that map

a friend who i recruited for AA played this map alot, ill c what i can do for m now

btw, with peripheral vision u guys mean nightvision ?!
