Play with a pistol and toggle down sights, do this for a few days then go back to rifles... that's what I do if I feel like I'm slacking off.

Problem is that I always end up having so much fun with my pistol I have to remind myself to go back.
 
- Start out w/ good guns:
M16/M4 w/ red dot
RPD w/ grip
- Bandolier + Stopping Power + Deep Impact are probably the most effective perks
- Make sure to know the maps; make sure to notice where the popular spots are to camp at, then watch out for those places
- UAV is incredibly helpful, but don't become too reliant on it; if someone uses UAV jammer you're dead
- Sound is VERY important; listen for nearby footsteps and then check on your radar to see if it's an ally or not
- Don't forget to cook your grenades for at least a second or two
 
you can aim from the hip pretty easily from most of the guns. imp5/ak-74 fire from the hip. these are great for shooting through walls. i like mouse 3 to be knife. it's a one hit kill.
 
I can't image gaming without my 5 button mouse now. Mouse3 (thumb) is reload, mouse4 (wheel) is grenade, and mouse5 (pinky) is melee. I used to use the number pad for movement but have started using this recently. Has taken some getting used to but I like it.
 
Maytrdom has to be the cheapest perk of all time. You cant kill someone when you were alive so you have to rely on a computer dropped grenade to do the job for you. I call out anyone that uses this cheap perk.

I like the idea of hardcore but on all of the servers i have tried it was just a hug campfest with people waiting for you to come around a corner so they get the first kill. I'd rather people be fearless and charge into battle versus campers everywhere.
 
LOL
I opened a window to post this then wasn't sure how to word it. All of a sudden I told myself to hurry up before I get shot. I've been playing mp for a good part of the day.

Question.
When you get killed. It shows who killed you and with what weapon. If the text goes away too fast, is there a way to expand it or go back so you can see it again?

i dont think you can but it shows who and how on the left side plus who in big letters when it happens

where does everyone play now?

Some times the text goes by too fast. I UT2K4, you can open the console and see past messages.

I've been playing on fragStream 24/7 Crossfire.

It's a Free For All map.
There are spawn campers and martyrdom pussies but I still have fun.
 
Stopping Power + Martyrdom + 3x Frag = WIN

I keep using martyrdom just because of the pansies who cry about it. I guess if they were better players they could get away from it..

If you were better, they wouldn't kill you...
