[color=lime]HANG EM HIGH

Everyone knows to watch out when someone grabs the invisibility, because the next thing is to grab rocket. If your turn invis, and go for rocket you always have to watch out for grenades. What I like to do is as soon as I grab invis, jump on to the first pillar, and run up the lil cat walk, once you get to rocket throw down your PISTOL not your assualt rifle, but throw it down to your right so it looks like you still jumped from the bottom pillar to get rocket. That way they think your on the floor when your still on the catwalk.

Once you target an enemy and fire, the moment the rocket leaves the launcher switch to assualt rifle so you go invisible instantly. If you have yoru pistol with you you wont go invisible instantly because thats how long range weapons work with invis. make your way up to the top area where shotguns are, and if you need pistol, its there waiting for you.

DERELICT

If you fins yourself trapped at the bottom with your enemies closely watching the teleports, and its still a lil while before sheild appears (you know this because you BETTER be using a timer) run over to sniper rifle while still on the bottom, jump off the lil rampo there and duck as you hold x button, you should be able to pick up snipes from bottom. quickly get cover and watch closely for anyoen grabbing invisibility from under the platform where health pack is. (its very hard to find people down there with out having to go out in the open and look) once there is about 3-4 seconds left before shield appears, grenade jump up to the second floor from the side that you can only be seen if your enemy is where needler is upstairs(no one likes hanging out over there) If you are on the right side you will notice, once you nade jump up, shield is there, and that little half wall is blocking nay view of you getting it besides a few short feet. If no one saw you nade jump up there, no one will have a good enough reaction time to shoot you the few feet you need to be out in the open when grabbing sheild.

BATTLECREEK

If you know invisibility is going to appear soon, stay in a spot where you cannot be seen. The moment invis appears shoot it once with a pistol shot. Its will drop into the water and be almost invisible, also, if your playing an elite or pro they will most likely think you picked it up since usually everyone fires a round of pistol when they get invis so that they can quickly swtich to ass. rifle and go invis instantly. when its safe to grab it, do so.

If your on the other end of the situation and someone grabbed invis, they are most likely going for rocket, so wait about 5-6 seconds, then throw nades up at rocket. If you timed it correctly you'll pop an invis guy as he is grabbing it, if your early, then watch where rocket it flying and GET THERE FIRST.

Another strategy against invis is, if you already have rocket, go over to shield and right when it appears, invis is also, grab shield run through teleport and go left, hesitate for a second or two and fire a rocket at the tree near invis. usually you'l end up taking out the new invis guy because usually someone picking up invis will hang out for a few seconds before they exit the invis cave. The splash damage will take them out. If you missed, look left and jump on top of the building and have your buddy be the invis scout.

LONGEST

dont bother going up the ladder or up the ramp if camo/shield is appearing, rather throw nades up there as it appears and they will come to you. if you are up at the power-up ledge, as soon as you get one, throw a nade through the little cutout and jump down and run to the other side, the scond power=up should be falling down from the nade blast giving you both.


add some if you want.[/color]

HIde in the base. Its the only way. If you cant see them they cant see you.

only kidding

in my opinion (and im not that good, but what the hey), grab a shotgun and pistol, run for a warthog or ghost (leave the tank, your too vulnerable to snipers and pistolers) and drive the fjsk round until you find someone , jump out and then shoot the bugdfr with the shot gun. The pistol, in my opinion, is not the best weapon but it is the best anti sniper weapon.

For BG I use three different combos the third one being my most useful.
1.Shotgun/Sniper
2.Shotgun/Pistol
3.Sniper/Pistol
4.Plasma Pistol/Pistol

Tactics/
When starting at the red base grab combo 3 there should be a hill that’s covered in shadows that is a great point to kneel behind some rock and once you find a position that you can easily scan the field with your sniper rifle stay there for your first 2 clips after those find another place up there until you run out of sniper ammo.
