Useful tips |
|
Tip No.1 SMG
An effective way to counteract stick is to use your SMG. Although difficult to master, try walking backwards (default 's' key and left mouse button) while shooting your SMG non-stop. Reloads can be a problem so always be ready to switch to the RPG.
Tip No.2 RPG
Mastering the SMG technique will only take you so far. For your enjoyment and the enjoyment of others you might want to try you hand at RPG. RPG is very useful for when you need to reload your SMG. Simply take out the RPG and press primary fire. A lot of players don't realise that the key to effective RPG use is to position yourself well back from your target. Staying out of impact range is a much under utilised exploit that could give you the edge in any game.
Hope this helps. Happy fragging!

to go even more advanced, learn to bunnyhop backwarts and throw an smg nade before you smg him in the air. also getting away from the opponent means a higher chance of evading the rpg impact completely. some animals where harmed while testing this and the result was a ban of these strategies. however some people are using them like some kind of illegal drug.

Tip 3 Area best to use SMG and RPG
High platforms or any platform.
Smg- spray at moving target. The old saying of throw enough mud and some will stick.
RPG - best aimed at groups of poeple below u, extra points awarded if you can loop the loop the RPG round before getting a multikill.
Remember style and skill will have your kills chat back, with at the very least a N1

I heard that if you crouch down and stay very still whilst firing you take virtually no damage
I can believe people still do this...

Best place to spray from with the deadly SMG is the "Ramp of shame"on top. The SMG is well known for its high impact energy and long distance accuracy. Will make you controlling the whole server in no time.
Tip 5: Movement.
Only scared and unexperienced players move. Real Heroes just duck down in some corner (as higher as better), observe the next spawnpoint and use all earlier mentioned tactics from there. The SMG aims even better in crouching position in HL².
We lifted all our secrets now - Its like opening Pandoras Box and we are all going to die soon...

Tip #6: Make sure you save your Sprint until you are able to charge straight towards a player. Your enemy will be soo scared that they will forget to shoot you!

Tip #7 You are safer in a crowd.
You are less likely to be picked on when blending in with a group on a killbox floor.

Tip # 8 - saying key phrases like "pwned", "noob", "wtf hax" during the game will strike fear and confusion into the heart of an opponent and will maintain your position as the best HL2DM in the world - EVER!

Tip #10
Give yourself a name such as SuPeRc@liCul@c@p@cop{Kill@} this will then frighten your enimies and cause them to totally run off. Never let your name be a correct spelling as this will make the players tink you spend more of your time in grammer school than playing the game.
Tip #11
Always remember the game hates you so scream words like "nub" "haxor and "wtf" just to show your not happy about dieing
Tip #12
Always keep under cover the physics objects. Remember HL2 is a war game and always needs a tactic! If there is a car stand behind it whilest spraying the smg on the noobs who thinks its good to use the g gun.
Tip #13
Never say you like the game you have been playing for the last 6 hours, always know that all of your fellow players are arseholes and dont deserve nice language because they are the cause that valve weakened your favourite gun >>> Smg
Tip #14
Always make a big deal out of entering a server and leaving a server. The other players may think your a hardcore or important player and that they shouldnt screw you over just in case you should ban them
This ties in with tip #15
Tip #15
Always say your an admin , even to an admin . If they somehow find out your an admin, ask to be an admin, or say im the admins friend and im gonna get you banned from a server that has been set up using sdk.
Tip #16
Always walk around with your mic on, all the other players will befriend you in order to shut you up. Even when you have nothing to say you should always remember to play music down into your microphone for the benefit of your fellow players.
Tip #17
Should you get banned from a server , never give in to terrorist threats these being promise you want to do it again and ill unban you. Say I promise nothing (on the mic) because I am the greatest player who ever lived and i know the admin of this server na na na na naaa
Tip #18
Always change specific letters like e into 3 and a into @. This gives the players the understanding that your only young like 15 or so and you deserve a second chance not to scream down your micriphone
Thats all I can give you atm (Help Wise)

Tip #20: Should you somehow die in any way, always blame it on lag. Simply saying "Lag" will automatically make everyone know that your death was not your fault because you are the best player ever and only the internet itself can take you down.
Tip #21: SMG grenades and explosive barrels are excellent close combat weapons. Run as close as you can to your opponent before using.
(Deathmatch is a very very silly place...)

Tip #22: That one is for dm_killbox_tsgk_v8_rc3: Jump into the big blue container and use your gravgun ad infinitum do move around unharmed by any weapons. You will get a special "container master award" if you manage to do 50 successive loops around the room.
Tip #23: Call any spawning player a camper. They do spawn always at the same points, don't they?

Tip # 24 - Never, under any circumstances, say "lol" UNLESS you are actually laughing out loud. This is punishable by death in some jurisdictions. A full "rofl" is only acceptable if you make 3 complete revolutions.

I tried the tips and blew myself up.
wtfhax?
Tip#25:As soon as any TSGK member humiliates somebody,never pull out another weapon but the stick EVER,don't forget to swing it wildly at the air just in case someone should land in its vicinity during said swing.
No need to run just walk,walking is intimidating to everybody and draws in more victims for your air sticking.
Tip#26:When you see a player with their back turned to you,mash the sprint key and never let go of the trigger untill that smg is fully depleted,unless they turn around make sure you stop and look the other way so they dont think it was you ^^
