Guns kill, head shots kill faster.
Regardless of what you are carrying, you will run fast with a knife out.
There are three thing that can happen when you die: sometimes you come back to life instantly, sometimes you have to wait 6 secs-4 mins, and sometimes thats it; game over.
Water nullifies the affects of gravity.
Guns come from the sky.
Three words strike fear in the hearts of men: FF is on.
Satan's weapon of choice is a flash bang.
Hackers and cheaters are more hated than murderers and rapist.
"Need backup!" is universal code talk for "Everyone stay back while I get shot the fvsk up, then go hide!"

No matter how advanced an alien war machine is, it will always have a weak spot that flashes lights to attract your attention

apparently, you have the power to look into the future as to how many ways you can either kill a person, or how many ways you can die and what you can do to avoid it...and when you finally get it right, that event suddenly becomes the present....

such as having so many lives and saves...woooo

After a massive killing spree, the bodies will usually just disappear into thin air. Therefore, you don't ever need to worry about how to dispose of the corpse.

No matter how many times you talk to a person, unless they are have an exclamation point floating over their head, they will say the exact same thing.
