Rox trick

Post by Rickshaw » Tue May 02, 2006 9:11 pm

I was playing over on the DiiTron Low Grav Rockets server and I figured out how the other people were clumping their fired rockets together.

What you do is click and hold the primary fire just like you were going to blast someone with a 5 rocket shot. Then after the first rocket loads, you click and hold the secondary fire button as well. It should fire all 5 rockets in a tightly packed cluster.

Some of you may have known this, but this is news to me :D

And you've been playing for how long? Smantie the noob (I've only played since February and I just figured out how to hammer jump the other week) knew that.

Rumor has it if you just press the secondary fire button on the Rocket Lancher, it will dispense these little can thingys that blow up. :shock: :wink: :rock: :lol:

Here's a little trick that not many people know about. If you cluster all your rockets, and fire them straight down at the ground, the damage amount is so great that it actually loops around and only only causes you about 20-50 damage, but launches you into the air with even greater power than if sombody were to fire 6 rox into your shins.

You have to be looking straight down, so It's only practical in rare situations that don't require you to "aim" your launch, but I've used this to successfully self-launch in overlord and other maps. It takes much practice to learn without dying, but once you get it, it's very useful.

I hadn't heard of that before. However, I think I might wait for someone else to try it. That would be a rather hilarious way for you to get people to commit mass suicides.

doh!! We need to have a qoou training session where we make sure everyone knows all these little tricks. Once you know them, they seem like common sense, but I remember it taking me forever to learn them too. :P


@ smantie:

Yes.... yes it would....

It's sad when noob smantie knows these things and {noob}/{qoou} members don't. Next you're going to find someone posting that if you double-tap the arrow keys you'll dodge. FFS.

I learned from someone to fire rockets close together because I was playing 1 on 1 on mazon and the guy shot 3 close together underwater to hit chain 1. I obviously noticed they where in tight formation like my cute ass and inquired how he did it. But that was about 3-4 years ago so dont call me a noob! I do this tactic myself if its a full map of players just in case!

Invisible pegs = yes

Bio Rifle = About a year ago I spent over half an hour looking for that thing. At that point I asked myself how much I really cared and just stopped :D

The best thing to do if you want to search for items/hidden things is to go around in single player and use the "ghost" cheat code. It's how I randomly found the shield in Desertstorm and how I found the second gun cavern in Overlord. There are a lot of really odd things you can find doing that and once in a while you'll stumble across something you didn't know was there.

Open a map in UnrealEd and find even more things out. :o Just be sure *NOT* to save it with the real name if you modify it. :P
