I'm just giving a couple tips i'm sure most of you know but, hey, might be usefull for newbies.

- weapon combination : i personally think M90 shotgun combined with the M6D pistol is the best combination. 1 to 2 hits with the M90 is all you need in close quarter to down an opponent ( 3 hits if he's got an overshield ) and 3 hits in the head with the M6D if your opponent is far away. With these two weapons you can take on just about anything ! Aiming of course, is the essence.

- Nice thing to do in CTF Blood Gulch, is to have a friend drive you in a Warthog to the enemy base, you get in there, down everybody with your M90, get up to the teleporter and then, miracle ! your friend is waiting for you in his trusty Warthog. Climb back to the turret, and mow down any blokes chasin' after you. This is a very simple tactic, i bet most of you know it, but it never failed me.

- Taking on vehicles. Its the hardest thing to do. Sniping works against the Scorpion (nest a bullet inside the drivers head, but then again, if he's smart, he'll turn around, exposing the scorpions back, and turn the turret in your direction. Then you can't snipe him anymore and you're in serious trouble) but not against the Warthog (wind shield protects the driver from headshots. Except if your really good, sniping a Ghost is extremely difficult. So against these two vehicles, i'd like some tips on how to take em out alone or with ONE other person, assuming of course, the driver is NOT a newb.
