Ahh I'll tell a couple Multiplayer tricks.
1: Crouch while Jumping-
While most of you know this, some may not. If you crouch at the top of your jump you can get a bit higher, this allows you to do such things as get on top of pillars at Hang Em' High and so forth.
2: Quick Reload:
Although this does not actually speed up the reload speed, it does keep you from being vulnerable. If you do this consistently you will rarely be left without a weapon to fire while reloading. Hit X, X, Y and wait until you hear the sound of a finished reload, then switch back and your weapon will be fully reloaded.
3: Quick Invis:
There is two ways to go invis very quickly. Both involving either the AR or Plasma Rifle. Once you pick up invis there is a couple seconds where you fade away, to go invis instantly simply fire a quick burst from your AR and you will immediately go invis. You can also switch to your AR after firing any other weapon, such as the pistol, to go invis. This works well when you are invis with rocket and wanna shoot and be invis instantly instead of waiting about 4 seconds, simply switch over to your AR after firing. (do it by using the reload trick)
4: TIME:
I don't care if you think it's cheap, cheating, whatever you wish to call it.. you cannot be a pro unless you time. A lot of players don't understand timing, but it's quite simple. All weapons and powerups spawn at a certain time, no matter when they were picked up. For example the Active Camo spawns at 1 minute on most maps, so it will spawn at 1 minute, 2 minutes, 3 minutes, so forth.. despite the fact it could have been picked up at 1:38. If you don't time it's unlikely you will get powerups or the rocket against good players, and this is a must in pro games. A good method for timing is to buy a watch at your local Wal Mart, such as a digital watch. Remove the band from the watch, get some velcro and place it on the XBox Logo of your controller. That way you can start your timer, hit your light, and do everything you need to do with ease. It takes time but the difference it makes is huge.
There is a lot more I don't feel like discussing right now, like I said.. if you wanna know more mail me at karrotsrkool@hotmail.com.
Oh yeah MODS could you please delete that Hey Twitch666! post, it's nothing but annoying spam.
