BEFORE YOU GET ONLINE : THINGS TO DO ONLINE : THINGS NOT TO DO ONLINE

-
I would suggest you read this if you are new to
online gaming in general, if you are looking for
some serious technical advise, I would go to
this site - http://www.weenie.com, this is an
excellent source of quake technical
-

BEFORE YOU GET ONLINE
Choose a server with a ping lower than 400ms
as anything above this is virtually unplayable.
Ping is the speed that the server responds
to your PC.
-
Choose a server with a few players on it,
i find 1 on 1 boring as you spend most of
your time running around finding each other to
have a five second rocket battle.
-
Practice with a bot like the reaper bot, this
mod virtually replicates the online
environment CLICK HERE for info.
-
THINGS TO DO WHEN ONLINE
Make sure you know your way around the maps,
like where the best weapons are or health and
ammo etc, this will make your life alot easier
-
Listen out for sounds around you like doors
opening, or explosions, or gun fire etc etc. this
will help you to find or evade an opponent
-
If someone is firing at you keep moving it makes
there life much more difficult and also prolongs
yours
-
If someone is shooting at you with a rocket DO
NOT back into a wall as it makes you and
easy target, because if they miss the shockwave
will get you
-
If someone is shooting at you with a rocket
get close to them the shockwave will probably
kill them to.
-
Pick up every packback you see, as these might
have some nice weapons in them.
-
Pick up everything you see. and remember
the spawn points
-
Blast the hell out of everything you see move
-
Some players say that you should learn to play
quake with the mouse as it makes things easier,
this is one that you will have to decide for
yourself because i personnally prefer to
play with the keyboard, but each to his own
-
THINGS NOT TO DO WHEN ONLINE
-
Keep moving, dont camp/cherrypick (stay in the
same spot and kill people as they come through)
because this bugs the hell out of other players.
-
Message flood (sending the same message loads
of times) this also bugs the hell out of people.
-
Use the server you are on as a chat room, if you
want to chat use Mirc.
