Okay now when your playing a big 16 player match it's always good to sperate from your team. How so you may ask well it's better to have one person die (you) then having a group of 5 ppl. Also get the pistol unless your a magic touch with the shot gun then get that. When near the enemy flag doesn't matter which side always have a few frags and a flamethrower for going to town. Whe nthings get to heckteck run or become suicidal by doing the usual and tossing a nade right in front of you and balsting you and 3 badies with you. The choice however is compeletley up to you though.

Telepoters
Use them to your advantage by confusing your enemy by going back and forth inbetween them or by camping behind the teleporter and taking out oncoming foes. The telepoters also help to get to one place to another quickly so use it wisely.

Power ups
The cave with the power ups is a nifty spot where you can get an overshield and hide on the sides and suprise your enimes then go to the place with the invisablity and make your eneimes go "What the hell?" Okay so anyway you basically have 3 choices to do for each power up area.
1. Go onto the little sides and blast at your foes
2. go down the holes and shoot to kill
3. Turn around where you came and go on

Practice makes perfect
Practice getting head shots with the pistol I recoomend just plain out doing this map until you get it cuz the corriders are long and make for some interesting pistol fights. Then once you get the 3 shot enemy down thing laid ya'll be on your way to becoming a pro with this map. Also use the assult rifle or shot gun in tight places like in the caves also just keep on practicing. Do this with every other weapon on the level and then ya'll need to lear one more thing.

The most important thing
You ahve granades use them in these areas sometimes ya'll get lucky and get an incoming foe that's right around the corner with the blast of a fragmentation granade.

Not that you've learned my young potowons use your skills wisley or face certain doom!

What do you think?


Personally, I don't think it was helpful, although it may have been to others...

Pretty much all that was stated are constants used on other maps and the obvious; like using a 3-shot pistol kill, or using grenades. Of course people will use them. There were also countless spelling errors, which didn't make it a fun read.

Telepoters
Use them to your advantage by confusing your enemy by going back and forth inbetween them or by camping behind the teleporter and taking out oncoming foes. The telepoters also help to get to one place to another quickly so use it wisely.

Well, if you keep on going back on forth between two teleporters, you will get killed pretty fast in my games.

Power ups
The cave with the power ups is a nifty spot where you can get an overshield and hide on the sides and suprise your enimes then go to the place with the invisablity and make your eneimes go "What the hell?" Okay so anyway you basically have 3 choices to do for each power up area.

2. go down the holes and shoot to kill
3. Turn around where you came and go on

Yeah, didn't really get anything out of here. Know your map, is basically the same as this.

Also, you shouldn't bump, but that's just my opinion.
