qzdm6 archway bugs

Newbi — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 02:44:55 +0000

Another CA tactic that I thought you may want to use on the ole so popular dm6 “the campgrounds”. This specific tactic or “bug” allows you to stick to the corner of the archway door in high spam areas allowing you to have entry without exposure. Also allows you to fool your enemies into thinking you have less health then you actualy do because of your distance from the prediction fire and nade spams.

qzdm6 archway jumps for Clan Arena

Newbi — Tue, 15 Sep 2009 14:08:09 +0000

some handy little jumps that could be used for one of those nasty clan arena spawns. With the aid of a simple rocket you can get out of the stairwell quick and easy and with out being frag bait for too long.

qzctf10 Three easy jumps everyone knows or should

Newbi — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 04:29:39 +0000

These are 3 little easy bitty jumps that if you don’t already know, then you should take the whole 15 minutes out of your life to learn them. The first is just a ricochet rocket jump off a jumpad. This jump is possible from both side with extreme ease. It can be used just as an easy way to get up to this particular point, or could even be used as a juke tactic while running the flag. The second is just a jump from the same catwalk side to the pipe deck between the flag and lightning gun. This was done without strafing, just regular jumps. No strafing skill required to make this jump. This jump could also be used as a stakeout spot or a juke jump. The third jump is also from the catwalk and it is basically just walk off the ledge and land on the lamp on the backside of the flag room below the pipe deck. This particular jump is fantastic for that surprise head shot when the enemy flag carrier comes around the corner and is expecting you to jump off the catwalk when instead your standing on the lamp waiting patiently for him to walk into his demise.

qzdm12 Rightside Strafe to Megahealth explained

Newbi — Sun, 09 Aug 2009 20:32:02 +0000

This is a response to a question I received about this specific jump. Q: “Mayheam” how is it possible to jump for around the corner like that jump you did on dm12? I recorded this particular trick in 2 different views at 2 different speeds. The trick is really not that difficult once you learn how to do it. And of course there is a trick to every trick, and the trick here is to jump off the tiny little piece of detail area on the leftside of the jump pad bevel on the second level of dm12. The 3 jump strafe is not actually required to do this trick but it really helps push you in a straight line around that corner. The first time you do it, you’ll get the sensation that you just ran through a wall, and that sensation is not far from the truth.

qzctf4 leftside pushpad cheat alternate

Newbi — Sat, 08 Aug 2009 01:15:06 +0000

A viewer submitted demo by un1tyNL. This is definitely a nice alternative to the original. Its more accurate to pull off and gauge, doesn’t cost you any hp, and it so easy to do. This is a must learn for any ctf4 player to have in his bag of tricks for that close game.

qzdm18 Alternate Route to Quad

Newbi — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 03:58:38 +0000

Another interesting trick I found recently while trying to pull off a different trick. At first I did this trick with a rocket then after a few more tries to perfect it, i screwed up and landed on the sign. Thus I realized, the rocket isn’t required at all! I will warn you in advance, this sucker is a pain in the arse to pull off, that sign is really narrow =).

qzdm7 RocketLauncher Room Staircase Shortcut

Newbi — Tue, 28 Jul 2009 01:49:54 +0000

Just a really simple strategy shortcut for getting up to the rocket launcher. For added kicks I added a circle jump to the lamp. This example is quite old but i find it surprising how many people have never seen it.

qzctf4 Yellow Armor Shortcut

Newbi — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 23:47:46 +0000

This is 2 different versions of this strategy maneuver. First is directly to the middle yellow armor and the second is a delayed version, gives you an extra 2 seconds and in some cases will lead to your fooling your attacker into thinking that you fell to your death on the the attempt.

qzdm14 Red Armor Pit Defense Tactics

Newbi — Mon, 27 Jul 2009 23:19:27 +0000

Just some really simple tactics that really give a player a leg up on this map while trying to cover both quad damage and the red armor. First is the entry, pad to window ledge, second is the red armor theft, pad to red armor, third is a juke tactic, fourth is another juke tactic, fifth is a quad area walk around for that easy shot in the back when trying to chase someone out of the quad room right before quad damage spawns.

qztourney4 Middle Domination

Newbi — Thu, 09 Jul 2009 14:27:37 +0000

These jumps are middle range difficulty with strategy jumping. The first jump is a true strafe jump over the gap on the top row instead of the commonly used cheat jump which uses the columns and requires little speed. The second jump on the middle floor is also a rudimentary jump as it only requires practice and a decent circle jump. Both of these jumps will aid any player with the control of qztourney4.

qztourney3 Over under jump

Newbi — Wed, 08 Jul 2009 16:52:05 +0000

This isnt the most complicated jump in the game but it will definitely give you that bonus edge you were looking for as well as some finesse to show off to your opponent. It allows you to move from one side of the arena to the other thus creating the “shot in the back” result as your opponent peaks out the middle catwalk looking for you because he heard you jump, but never saw you.
