Grav gun orgy |
|
I've been asked several times how the heck my grav gun was so hysterical, the answer is : I am hysterical
Well, beside this the way to improve your gravity gun's skill (not yours) is to bind the page up or page down of your extended keyboard (the 6 keys block close the numpad) to the last used weapon and to keep pressing it while using the grav gun.
It will switch weapon endlessly in a weird way, but very efficient !
Let's let objects fly now ! And you will enjoy the death when landing !
However, prolly, you'll have to bind all keys closer that one to use this feature, unless you belongs to the octopus species

Yep, I was wondering if something was wrong with my HL2, but they've fixed the glitch of the grav gun
No need anymore to get stuck at the right part of the keyboard ...
Damn I had fun with that

Heres a list of what I know because I'm fed up of noobs calling me a cheat: -
Hovering SLAM - Think most people know this one, plant a Slam on object
then move the Object away. Another variation is to stick it on the floor then quickly put a Explosive barrel over it as it sets, so whoever picks up the barrel will go boom if there close enough.
Fast Plant SLAM - Go to a wall, click to plant SLAM, as your just about to plant it switch to your Grav gun and then back again quickly, hopefully the Slam should Plant on the wall, and the second one you do will just automatically follow, hard to pull off and not worth the effort though.
Fast Shotgun - You fire, press reload then press fire again and it should fire quite fast. Damn Valve have now removed this in the update.
Fast Orb - Fire the orb, switch to your Grav Gun and fire, then switch back to your Gun, this should speed the orb up about twice its normal Speed.
Unlimited Orb - Fire the orb, catch with your GGun, when it makes its running out noise, Fire it, switch to weapon then back to Ggun and catch it, and hopefully it should be with you without leaving yourside or having to bounce it off a wall and catching it again, please note this only works moving forward otherwise it will just bounce off the walls.
Grav Nade - Needs no explanation, chuck, catch throw.
Unlimited nade - Similar to the unlimited orb, follow the same steps with a nade whilst running backwards and it should just catch in midair everytime and reset the timer. Only works running backwards for some reason though.
Easy Object Catching - Instead of Just holding the Right Mouse button down, click it real fast when trying to catch an object or Nade. Gives you a much better chance of Catching it.
Other Tricks (Don't know how to do & don't know if they have been removed) -
Slow Crossbow - Fires a Crossbow bolt slower than walking speed but keeps on going until it hits a wall/someone.
Crossbow Bounce - The crossbow usually bounces once depending on the angle, but theres a way to bounce it lots and lots of times. Usually done on Lockdown.
UberBall - Makes the orb Ball Very Fast & Uncatchable - Now Removed.
Fast Grav - As mentioned above, bind multiple keys to the same command, or bind the command to your Mouse Wheel. Some regard this as scripting/Cheating, others don't, I think it may have been removed in the new update anyway but I don't personally use it myself.
Here is another Guide by GunSlinger on Valve, covers movement more than the weapons though -

Hope this is some use, BTW, TSGK Servers are wicked!

For this one you have to trow a SLAM on the floor, then duck on it and shot an arrow (aim the SLAM).
Thanks for all those super tricks, i did know most of them, even if now they didn't work anymore
Hope to see you on a map a day.

lil bit tricky ;] |

a simple but sometimes effective trick is to throw a nade with the right mouse click while an enemie is running towards or behind u if he is 2 far away just shoot the nade with the grav to him or if hes to close catch it with the grav and let it fall again.
