Smoke nades:
When I first used the smoke nade launcher I thought, this is pants... but, it's ideal use, according to the read-up, is to identify enemy positions.
However... through the week I used it on tanks and it worked a treat... the driver can't see RPG positions, nor can he see a recon sneaking up on him. If you see it done on any servers... a member of GSV did it first.
Also, if you are taking an exposed position, have an Assault trooper with you to repeatedly smoke out your position at the flag. Be careful if you have trouble with a low spec video card though, as I fired off one too many smoke nades and lagged my self into disconnection from the server... got the flag first though...
Also, I suppose over use of this tactic amounts to grenade spamming... maybe...

Just be a nutter... life becomes much more exciting, and people won't expect anything more of you...
Quad Bikes:
It's been mentioned by EA that Quad Bikes (that must be a misnomer) are great for flanking... well, due to the time it can sometimes take waiting for other players to join I like to mess around on the Quad Bikes. (definitely a misnomer) I've found that you can make an amazing jump, using the a protrusion of rock, onto the roof of a building and land very near to the choice of two MCOM's.
Unfortunately I haven't had time to find more than one of these just yet as, rather annoyingly, others join the server and actually want to play the game...
I've found this on is the Valparaiso map. There is another map you can do something similar on with a Jet-ski, but that one is a bit trickier.
