I thought it might be a good idea to have this.

Spawning in Tunnels and being thrown out! Try holding down the PageDown key when pressing space bar. It helps on some maps.

Holding down space Bar while running up hills and ladders (move faster)

Auto Run Press Scroll Lock key

Good post, Kiki. It seems to me, if you are a med, that running with the medpack may be slightly faster than the knife or pisto.

Yes, running with the med pack is faster - BUT, if you run into a bg you might try to shoot him, only to find that you've dropped all your MedPacks - a big waste - and I'm sure something we've ALL done from time to time.

I find that the difference is very slight between the knife, pistol, and medpacks.

I use a pistol for the reason Grunt states, you dont want to run around a Vinni map when PAras could have been dropped! (5)

Also, having a big scope area for sniping is NOT GOOD. as the more you see the more visible you are:)

Personnaly I use the M4A 1SD, its got a reasonable rate of fire and is quiet, I find you die a lot less with a quiet gun, Oh BTW I carry all silent weapons (2)

The weapon is a very personal preference type thing. I've used just about all of them at some point. I really like the G11 - its just so cool, but the scope stinks. Since I always play as med, I find the heavier weapons (inc. the OICW) drift too much for my taste.

I'm a sniper at heart, so that is what I mostly carry, with silenced assault and pistol. The M40 is great, but the rate of fire is too slow. So I usually carry the M82 (awesome range) or the PSG (love the silence).

As for the extra toys, I try to find out what others are carrying so we have a good mix of satchels and AT4's - depending on the map.

So 99% of the time its all silenced weapons.

Of course thats for Coop maps - team games are a whole'nother ballgame.

I LW I mostly use M4/MK, its accurate and has a shotgun for QCB, but the drawback is that it's NOT silent.

I am always using the M84n orsomething(not the M40 and PSG but that other snipergun) i used because i am always dieng a lot and i try to work on that so i become a sniper. The Scope have a 14x scope. You can shoot from a long range to somebody head (l) . but somethimes you need to change youre coop to hit the bg. that is allittle bit poopie on it. But for guys that dieing a lot too , it is then good to use the sniper. Just sniping from some hill some bg . but i dont only try to snipe(because i am not super in that) but i treing to get in camps too to kill the Bg`s there too (with Calio) mi secondary weopon i have the Calio. You have a lot of ammo(2x100) and it shoot very easy. If i am not got a sniper gun i have the OICW. A good scoop and from litlle ranger , like camps or tunnels it is a good weapon too. The grandes is a good extra gun when you being in problems. for levels with a lot of three i sometimes use MM1(grenadelauncher) to blow up all that threes. On place three is standing the m249. A good gun with a lot of bullts. With that gun i feel like rambo. LOL. but it is not a good coop gun but more for Deatchmatches.

Heres my five cents.

I use the OICW, I have learnt how to deal with the recoil and I find the nade does help alot. Oh and SIX just for your info, the OICW is made by Heckler and Koch and can be found on http://www.hkpro.com/oicw.htm. For sniping i am tossing up between the M40, http://world.guns.ru/sniper/sn12-e.htm and the 50cal Barret, http://www.barrettrifles.com/ . I find the PSG1, also H&K, seems to drop out too quickly, its fine up to 400 metres but then drops, its only a 7.62mm round anyway. http://www.hkpro.com/psg1.htm
Anyway good gaming all
