some 1v1 tips

Post by Denial » Sun Mar 13, 2005 8:32 pm

Since some of you have played 1v1s a bit heres a little advice.

::Whore the armor
Never let your opponent get it, even if you already have 150 armor grab that vest anyways.

::Don't be afraid to run
If you're low on health and have the opportunity to get away and grab health/armor then do it

::Bind some keys
Make sure you have binds for throwing weapons (in case you're low on ammo) and maybe even a 'select best weapon' bind

::keep moving
Camping is not only lame but once you're found you've been sitting so long you won't be used to getting your arse out of the way of a combo

::Spam
Spamming in 1v1s is perfecly fine and not considered lame. spamming shock balls can save you many a nasty combo and using rox/flak can weaken armor significantly

::Know the map
Make sure you know the map as being new to a map won't help you armor whore which is critical to DM

Hope those help you out if you keep playing 1v1s ;)

Thanks for the tips Den!

This might be a stupid question, but when you use the sniper rifle, do you zoom or not? When I played you, you had some really good long distance shots.

I zoom a little, like 1.2x max but that's for really far away. It's easier to hit without being zoomed in.
