One on One Firefights

all of these things might help.

Personally i would like to add 2 more things.

Increase your FOV from 90 to say; 100-110 (console : /cg_fov 100)

Fov stands for field of view, and if you increase your FOV, you increase the angle of sight. To put it short : fov larger = see more happening in the corners of the screen.

This is especially helpfull when the enemy attacks you from the side. It allso allows you to try and circlestrafe (To strafe around the enemy in a circle while keeping your aim on him) around the enemy, preferably just outside his fov!

so : fov up, and circlestrafe.

Thanks for all the suggestions! I tend to forget a simple crouch move, guess I need more basic practice. Surviving for more than 2 minutes at a time would definitely make the game more fun.

I bound my crouch toggle to mouse 4. It made a drastic improvement for me as the default crouch was troublesome. At first I found myself crouching accidentally, as I tended to clench my mouse while firing but I soon realized the advantage of crouching sporadically while in a firefight.

Give it a try. It sure changed my game…

I cant say crouching sporadically works for me in duels but if it works for u cool :smiley:

My advice howto win firefights:

Don’t do them!

Go round the back and stab, that will teach them, especially if you are disguised.

If you want to be more evil use satchel.

So basically at spawn drop your weapon(s) and go by your stabber insticts.

I have once stabbed 5 “sniping” allied covops in a row as an axis covop. This happened on the goldrush “bridge” (the area above tank barrier 2).

i find crouching players easier to kill as they move slowely

Yes, where allied’s share of cowards gather. I’ve thought about stabbing them myself when on their team :wink:
