So, post your tips already :D

1. Never STAY STILL, that's about the worse thing you can do. You should always make move, sidestep, and jump around. Staying still will be the death of you.
2.When you're leaving your spawn, be wary of snipers. This happens a lot in Tunnels. Walk in zig zags.
3. Watch out for bright glows, those are snipers charging their weapons. If you happen to see one, side dodge IMMEDIATELY.
4. When you're in a fire fight, NEVER stay still, try to jump, sidestep, and most importantly, AIM.
5. If your aiming really sucks, and the mouse movement is awkward and weird for you then change the mouse sensitivity.
6. Keep on practicing don't beat yourself up because it's your FIRST game and you got a bad score.
7.Remember your weapons range. If you're using the starting dual sub machine guns, and you're trying to snipe someone from long range, you're DOING IT WRONG. Don't go into the middle of the battle field with a sniper weapon, and don't try and freaking snipe with close range weapon. ( SMG's at close range are pwnage)
8. Learn how to use your sword, always try and drop down and stun your opponent then dash attack and start slashing him. Always side step and try and jump behind him.
9. If you're low hp, don't be a douche and pick up the freaking ball. You're basically giving it to the opponent. If your team mate has the ball, go after him and stay behind him while fending off opponents.
10. The skills shield and block are useful in touch down. So is Sentry Gun. Sentry gun can be used to guard your base, block can block off ball carriers and slow down their progress, and if you have the ball, you can walk backwards towards the enemies goal while casting shield.
11. Aim.
12. When you pick up the ball, you still have a bit of SP left, use it to run or cast shield.
13. You should commonly check your ammo and your HP.

15. When sniping, always charge the Railgun to the max. If somebody comes near with a sword, hit them with the blast, don't try to change weapons.

17.- The grapple hook is probably the flashiest and most badass of all the skills, not to mention that it makes sword slamming an easy feat.

19. Get a SMG and run up to someone, and hold left mouse button. Repeat.

Basic Tips:

1. Dodging is key. Keep on your feet and out of the enemies crosshairs.
2. Air Dodges privide mobility and fast travel (at the expense of SP). To preform one simply jump then press right+space/left+space.
3.Aim high, kill fast. Head shots are critical hits that deal 2x as much damage.

Touch Down:

1.When going for a TD try to move in a pack to provide more cover for the carrier.
2.The carrier has no SP so try not to run to far ahead.
3.When defending Block is an invaluable skill that could make the difference between losing and winning.


Will add more later.

Key phase is "if you play long enough"

If you suck a lot, and get owned all the time, you'll quit and won't be able to "play long enough".

And this about wraps it up...If they did the tutorials,they wouldnt suck..or their skills is just not efficient..

Tutorial is... a tutorial. It only teaches you the basic. Doesn't teach you that other skills exist, or even licenses. Doesn't tell you about crits etc..

21. Position yourself behind a wall so that you are right next to the edge of it. Turn your camera and start shooting people through the wall.

Um I dont know if this is a tip but if you do the licenese test for a weapon you get it for 5 hours, and then you have to buy your own from the store. Helps a lot for new players i guess
Same goes for skills

Why is there a need for tips for such simple games? This is an action game for god sake... with simplistic weapons.. This isnt unreal / quake where you have to use certain types of guns with extreme precision at different situation/times. Nor is this like cs1.6 where quick reflex is absolutely necessary. Nor is this a strategy game which requires extreme tactics and control (like starcraft).
If you suck at games like this (cant play a proper game with decent kills after playing for several weeks), well, you suck period.

Revolver+Dualies+wall=win.
Wall up anywhere stay behind and shoot.
In TD matches help your ally with the ball by trying to block the enemy with wall when he reaches their tunnel thingy it'll save him lol.Or if enemy got it just block your wall.

Ummm ok I'll ask in this thread as well how do you get passed the fainting mission? no one gives straight answers any more =(

semi plus shield works wonders both long range and midrange. Also shield plus plasma sword is a sweet combo move close in then right click to rush and spam left click lol.

Fainting mission is when you get stunned by someone and you press a+jump or d+jump to roll away. Yeah I know its hard.

My strategy is to use clean up crew :). Sit back and don't do anything and when you see an intense 1v1 fight...jump in and steal your teammates kill. :) Makes my score all the better.

Actually, this is a TPS.

not if you zoom in via mouse wheel

EDIT: To pwn with the plasma sword just jump then attack. You'll stun them for about 5 seconds, long enough to do two power swings and kill them. =/

But I'm asking what attack combo you're supposed to do. Press the right click dash and then just keep pressing left click? Or do you jump attack and then keep pressing left click? Or what?

get the shield skill and run up close. Right click then left click you should dash and slash at the same time also causing your opponent to be knocked down. Then use gunz style switch to gun and finish him off if your opponent manages to get up repeat what you started.

I like plasma sword better than counter sword even though sword vs sword counter is better.

Oh, That means Game Over for me since I only got 2k and I can't buy anymore guns.

Edit: I actually found a way to fix it. I just switched the weapon to a different slot. I need to farm 20k+ to get a Revolver though.
