Here's a few tips specific to Hang 'em High:
* Don't stand near any ledges. Rockets hitting the edge of the ledge will get you.
* Shoot at the edge of a ledge someone is standing on, not at them (same principle).
* If your team is gonna own, you'll need a sniper, have somebody focus on that. If they've got a sniper, FOCUS on killing him before doing anything else.
* Aim AHEAD of people, guess which way they're gonna move and aim that way. Most of my kills are just good guesses.
* If there aren't any snipers about, remember that you can DODGE rockets easily if you're elevated and not near any objects. I have endless fun standing in plain sight, letting them shoot, and dodging it at the last second while they eat mine.
* Don't forget your pistol. You can really clean up on this map with your pistol from long distance.
* Whether you're sniping or have a spnkr, aim at the orange areas below for almost sure kills (or similar areas if on other team):
*If you're playing Oddball, note the PRIMO location to collect time. From this point in the tunnel you're about as safe as you can be, assuming your team watches your back.
Note the location of the cameraman (me), with my back to the open air doorway, just a few feet inside. If your teammate is in the tunnel, this is where you NEED to be to cover his ass. 95% of the time the enemy won't realize you've shot them in the back as they run into the hallway. Also, with the indicators you can see if/when the ballcarrier gets killed, and (since you can see ball's location) you'll have an EASY time killing whoever picks it up. Chances are, the original ballcarrier will return and you can take up your position and do it all over again.
If you do everything right, here's what you'll see:
All the enemy holed up behind his base (presumably where it's safe), and your team fully offensive. But damn if i don't make a mess...
