1.) Rocket launcher does splash damage, aim for the feet 2.) The Lightning gun should only be used for long range, close quarters your screwed, same for Rail, unless your good at aiming. 3.) ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS know where your enemy is, or enemies in any case, knowing where they are at all time is KEY to winning 4.) don't use the plasma gun...just don't...same goes for the Grenade launcher if you dont know the map 5.) Learn the maps, a better understanding of your surrounding is a real help, i suggest you start with "The campgrounds" its a very popular map 6.) Start playing in CTF matches, not Duel, Duel is for more experienced players And last..but not least 7.) pratice, and learn weapon switching, know when to switch to the rocket, the lightning, and know how many mouse scrolls it takes to select the weapon, for example 2 clicks down Rocket, 2 clicks up Shotgun etc etc.

*2) Shaft shouldn't be used long range as in QL it has reduced damage, also rail do like 80 only

9) Set up your keyboard properly, for every wep 1 key.. u will be like octopus but trust me, it's easier then, also you can bind under every key different wep with different crosshair, thus you can turn off your wep display

10) set up your game, u can turn off a lot of graphic beauty in order to see something, also forcing enemy models to something like tankjr will make it easier to shoot for a big models I personally don't recreate doom graphics but I saw a lot of players who do and they are usually level above me, maybe I will give it a try

11) you can set up your FOV

12) bunnyhop wins the day

13) for the "know the map rule" I add know the time rule.. you need that armor and those weps and that quad damage, these things wins the game

14) you can increase your aim by playing CAs and using rail only or RL only it depends what you wanna train fo

15) constant winning means you are not learning, never play with players at your level, always play with people who are better then you even if it means your mood swing to a downward depression
