| Gunzfactorian | I had just discovered this trick today and it works VERY WELL. If you have a bad connection and tend to lag, find a room doing berserker (requires Lv. 21+) or deathmatch in mansion with 12+ people ALREADY in the room. You must have a spraying weapon to do this effectively. Rifles, MG's, Pistols, Revs, and SMG's all work well. Enter the room with your equips set up. If you press tab and it is true that you have a bad connection, everyone (or most) in the room should have 0 ping. This is normal. DO NOT EXIT THE ROOM. This will most likely make everyone have normal pings upon your re-entry. Usually, 1 person will have a normal ping. For the first couple minutes of the round, you basically have two choices... - Go after that person. Most of the time, they're shooting someone you can't see, so they're pretty much an open target. While spraying, your gun may spread out, hitting the others in the area, them having no clue you're there. You may sometimes get 2-3 kills off of this and come out almost scratchless. This works well with in combonation with step #2... - Find an "empty hallway". With all of those people in Mansion...there's bound to be someone in those infamous hallways. Go to an end of a hallway, and just spray 1 or 2 rounds, even if you can't see if anyone is in the hallway. This works especially well with MG's as they tend to spread out their bullets a lot. Most of the time you're bound to get a kill. If you're lucky, there will be multiple people in that hallway, getting you multiple kills. The enemies' bullets won't hit you, as they can only see you as 0 ping in the spot that you spawn in. These two strategies will work well for a good 5-10 minutes, depending on your connection. After that time, people's pings will start to become normal and you will be able to see them, meaning they will be able to see you, too. This won't prevent you from killing them or the people with 0 ping, though. So have fun while you can! ^_^ This strategy so far today has gotten me from around 2000 bounty to 10k+. This is also a very good way to get exp. I got from around 40% at Lv. 29 to 30 from doing this multiple times. I hope it works as well for you! TIP: This works really well in berserker mode. If you're lucky, you will kill the current berserker. This will give you berserker status, giving you increased strength, making getting kills easier without dying too quickly. Note that your health/AP will slowly decrease while you are the current berserker. Leave comments and constructive criticism here! And please people, no flamming or spamming. ![]() EDIT: I've now added replays. They may not be the best, but they give an example for possibilities. As you will see, I DO get kills from people I can't see, but not very many. Unfortunately there weren't as many people in the halls at that time, or I was just shooting air for real. ![]() Last edited by LegendaryXM90; 07-21-2006 at 10:17 PM. |

| Gunzfactorian | Well, I should have some replays up by tomorrow, hopefully. This trick really works. People don't even try to kick you for it. Also, this will automatically cause you to have multiple AE's, but the people usually have normal pings after a few minutes. Last edited by LegendaryXM90; 07-20-2006 at 04:07 AM. |

![]() | Gah. ~> Tip to solving AE, rejoin the game <~ Sounds cool. I've always spammed shots in the direction of the other person's spawn when I AE in a TDM. Sometimes people just sit there and chat about how dumb it is that you AE. I've never gotten a kill from it though. >< |

| Gunzfactorian | Occasionally, I'd have AE to someone. They can't see me, but I can see them. However, they can damage me, I can't damage them. So they'd be shooting at someone invisible, but I can see them (but would not be able to do anything). I didn't know it could be the other way around is what I'm saying. |

![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | Im not sure about AE but if you have 1000 ping, you are indeed a difficult target to kill unless you stand still. Nice strategic though, use lag as advantage. |
