I recommend standing still. Makes your bullets more accurate.

- Minimize visibility and predictability to your enemy. Use ridges in the map as cover peaking over them then ducking out of view. Valleys also provide cover. Crouch / Prone can maximize effectiveness.
- Highlight yourself on your minimap by adding yourself as a buddy.

- Bind the keys you use the most or need in a flash close to your hand. Two things you should be able to execute in a split second are pistol and parachute. Either can save your life.

- Learn and memorize a few basic audible commands. 'Enemy ' blank ' spotted' is one of the easiest and it will rally support faster then 'Requesting Reinforcements'.

A WOW! Mouse Pad. They wear out kinda fast if you game a lot. I replace mine every two months or so for $9.99. That's a lot, no big whup, so what...wanna fight about it!

Tanks can't kill you if box/building/hill is between you. And when they come down hill to get you they have trouble getting you if you below or above their gun range angle.

Bullet should be shanked well and shanked often.

No, Lonewolf has much better sense, grammar and sentence structure. This is Pocket Pool, famous for ego, breaking rules, ego, arrogance, ego.

When you're as good at he is at this game, and spent 90 percent of your time playing around other great players with huge egos, you'd have a bit of ego too. He's an incredible pilot with amazing game sense. I've seen his setup too, I could never fly on it! He uses an old non-twist microsoft sidewinder joystick propped up on an old Star Wars PC game box. Don't know how you could ever hit anything with that P! Then he presses all the view keys on his keyboard with his other hand, its redic lol.

I PMed ya Pocket, lets grab a beer and catch up sometime soon.

That's not true... Nobody in k3/ownzr ever had a bad ego problem.

Snipers:

- Remember to not only camo yourself from front, back and sides - But also ABOVE. Often I see snipers laying out in the open when flying, and they become easy targets.
- Change location regularly. I love hunting for snipers, and when I find them I SLICE AND DICE I listen for the shot, I scan the area for possible hidingspots. Then I go hunting, you better move...

Engineers and Rifles:

- Repair.. repair and repair.. The more and longer you keep things alive, the bigger advantage you have as a team.
- Putting out mines can be great idea, but not if they lay in a middle of ... nothing. Think smart, place em, hide em, where do the viecles MOST LIKELY go ?
- Using C4 / Expacks is great way to eliminate the enemy, but try to maximize your destructive level by placing them strategically right.
- Rifles are great, some prefer Machineguns- I don't. (Even in close quarter battles). This takes practice, but when learned - Extremely deadly. The idea is 1 shot = 1 kill. You save bullets, time, and it's a F****** Good feeling

Air / Pilots:

- Your new, someone is on your tail.. You try to loose the enemy, and in a panic you go STRAIGHT UP.. You stall and crash, or enemy kills you.
NEVER go high or straight up, when being chased.

First of, when flying SPEED is key. GO high, VERY high, so high it almost stalls. When doing evasive maneuvers, speed helps you gain turn, twist and dive abilities. Sometimes if fast enough, you get behind the enemy and now YOU are the predator. Avoid flying low be general, keep your altitude and dive bomb on your targets. They won't notice what happened, untill its too late. But never go high or straight up, when being chased. TURN, twist, and use your camera views to find out where he is.
Take some time and read up on the plane specs, there are sites out there (google). They will tell you the difference between the planes, power, maneuverbilities, some are faster, some are better at turning, curves.. etc. Know your opponent's weaknesses.

Strategy / Objectives. First priority is ENEMY PLANES. Your in the air, but so are they! They are your worst and formost dangerous obstacle. Kill enemy planes first<<<
Second objective AA's (Anti AIR stations / guns), AND aircover for moving in ground units. If AA already active, that is your primary objective. You can't provide sufficient aircover, while being flakked by the enemy.

Change flight pattern. As stated many times before in the above posts, predictability is a big factor in this game. They learn your patterns, and you start dying alot.
Just like on the ground, Infantry, tanker, or pilot. Whatever you do, don't do it continuously. Sooner or later, they will pick up on it and intercept.

*Tip for Infantry!
Your in a server, and a pro pilot goes in the air. The shows begins, constantly owning you and your teammates for what seems like ages. Rounding up 50 kills in no time!
Those exists, and the best tip for you as infantry? Take cover.. Stay on foot, stay out of sight. DO NOT GIVE THEM TARGETS. They look for everything moving, jeeps, tanks, apcs, AA's, and machinegun fire. HIDE! Good time to move is when the pilot is making a turn, NOT when he has his back to you. (He uses camera view to look back). I do it myself all the time. I miss a target, I look back as soon as I passed to see where you are going. Jeeps might get you faster from A to B, but also an easy target for a good pilot.


Remember! If you can see the enemy, there is a good chance the enemy can see you!
