Chips' Fun House ~ View topic

Im sick of playing easy classes, HW,Sniper, Engineer. I have always gotten bored, and played multiple classes, but lately I have been playing Spy and Medic. Outta of all the classes, these two are the toughest for me. With medic, if im lucky enough to tag a couple of enemy's with a med kit, they end up dying befor the pack does its work. If im a spy..... Sometimes i can tag someone just right, and own them. Other times i swear i stab them 4 or 5 times and then i get roasted. Someone please teach me the ropes..... or atleast give a brotha some advise ! ! ! ! Dude someone take the time and teach where to stab someone for the 1 shot kill. AHHH.... some hit me up.
Thanks,
Bent Very Happy

Medic pro-tip:
Your medpack is a pretty useless weapon. Shotties and nades (both conc and regular) work much better.

YO MENG, let me know sometime and ill make a server we can just **** around on and ill show you some stuff.

if i'm on the server, ask me and i'll show you what I can.

Only HWs.

A little tip with the medpack is that you're slightly more likely to hit your opponent if you aim in front of them, where they're going.

medic is my eyes is the most complete class and best all around one except maybe solly but thats the only exception...med has nades, concs, speed, supershotty, and decent amount of health. If ur gonna learn to play med then i'd suggest u practice concing a lil bit, shotty aim, and moving around good. Remember its harder to hit a target moving around alot then one that isnt. But like Aud said the medpack is pretty useless unless ur teammates need health or ya run into a fatty, then ur pretty much doomed lol and infecting him before ya die is something at least hehe.

if you plan to play a class that provides concs, then you better know how to utilize them well.

-The med pack is okay, but I say infect, then run for an HW. You can't stand up to the AC at close quarters.
-Use the Super Shotty at all ranges except far, then use the Super nailgun
-Speaking of which, S-nailgun works well against SG's
-Don't forget, you're still a medic. Heal people!

Playing medic is just like playing Engie, except more abilities
I reccomend watching people

I just use the nailgun all the time, and I have killed quite a few people with it, it's more satisfying to kill them with the nailgun than the super shotty.

go to a mulch_dm map and just practice 1v1 against sollies and the such, only class I have a problem taking down with medic is hw and thats only because of the mass armor. for a spy get cross hairs on your knife and just start aiming for kidneys and back area.

for both medic and spy, the #1 thing you have to learn, is movement. by that i mean, you have to be very aware of every move you make, and you should always be moving unless you have a really good reason not to be. in addition, comes what is pretty much expected... the learning to bhop. I don't know if you have any interest in this, as bhop will require a jump script, which some people refuse to use.
similarly, medic is alot about concing too. i strongly suggest learning how to/practicing hh concing. remembering that: using a conc simply to make the enemy not able to shoot you is probably the worst way to use it. concs can be used to: move yourself, or move your enemy. knock your enemy away from his position, and he won't be able to shoot you easily. I know i personally got ALOT better at medic/scout as i practiced conc maps.
The reason why movement is so important: its offensive AND defensive. Speed is a HUGE advantage in TFC. With spy, that does its biggest damage while next to a player, you have to know how to move. Strafing back and forth, jumping occassionally, moving back and forth is how you cause sollys to miss with their rockets. On offense, movement gets you past their D.
After that, its simply in learning how to keep your crosshairs on your target!

Medpack is awesome. If you know you're going to die... just infect the bastard. You'll always see me doing that. It's also great to lay there dead and see how they respond to it. Usually, running into the spawn.
