Hi, guys. My pal and I often play in 2-2. On small maps like Harkov or Minsk pocket we can go together forward from the start, but on larger maps like Rjev, Moskow Outskirts or Oka it looks like we have a few ways: go together on choke points, each take has own side and try to hold both fuel points or together from one side then go to center. So what you can advise for big maps and actions from the start?
In any 2v2 be that on a large map or small you both must decide from the start where you want to go. Where either both of you work together to control one side of the map or split off and try for both sides and both fuels. Normally it is a good idea to try for both sides and see what your opponents do. If you see both players double teaming you on your side, then let your teammate know so he can help out while you fall back to his side of the map. Never try and solo it against overwhelming numbers if you have no hope of holding your ground and risk losing units. It is always better to retreat, regroup and launch another offensive once you are ready. Also if they are doubling teaming on one side then the other side of the map is largely uncontested so you or your ally can easily grab that territory. Now on the other hand if both opponents chose to go for their own sides, so that you and your ally are now in a 1v1 situation, it is wise to test them out and see if you can beat them on your own. If you can, push that player off the map and then go to your teammates assistance. However if not, it's no good bashing your head against a wall and in that case abandon your side and go help your teammate out.
