so heres the video as promised a few weeks back. Havnt had much time to sit and wait 30 mins for a 2 min rendering which is kinda b.s. but w/e. Yes we all know my net connection is shit and yes we all know i cant play bo2 for shit and i suck. the main reason i wanted to share this is to gain some ideas and tips as far as playstyle to improve kills and gameplay. this was actually one of my best games and although its not much i think i got 17 or 18 kills that game but a lot of deaths. it was a tdm game and yes I am aware tdm is way easy for some. At the end i got a double kill but the video cut off beings as you can only render 2 mins worth of video or so ive been told

pdw
silencer
fast mag

hard line
flack jacket
ext conditioning
toughness
bouncing betty

few others

your playstyle is to sit in a corner with smg silencer?

and is it me or when ever he dies it sounds retarded

ado.

1. Your Bouncing Betty placement is god awful. You are putting them down 2 seconds after YOUR spawn point? You should place them at places enemies actual go, or use them as grenades because they throw so damn far. But for starters, I would suggest placing them in high traffic areas and doors, not your spawn point. Which leads to 2.

2. Know the high traffic areas. You check every corner except the ones that matter. Example would be when you take the left route out of blue room, you check the corner where 1 out of 25 times a guy will be, go around the car (good), but then don't even glance down the alley where they actually spawn, and you get killed. Also, once you know the high traffic areas on maps, you won't need to camp. And this leads to 3.

3. Don't camp. Not only is it just annoying as hell, it's not going to get you kills, just deaths. I saw you got a few kills in this game, but those could have been achieved buy you bouncing between blue room and the fountain in the middle as well. Also, if you camp in the same spot, they know you are there. Bouncing between two close places allows you mobility, and if you se ghost, prevents UAVs from seeing you.

4. Use you radar. At one point in the video, you were inside the gate, your teammate obviously got killed to the left, red dot pops up on your radar, and then you turn right, leading to you getting killed in the back. Glance at the radar every now and then to see where people are, and once you get the general idea where most the people are, you can figure out where to go, how to get there, and actually limit the corners you nee to check.


TL;DR Learn the maps and high traffic areas so you can run to the groups of people, not camp and wait for them. Also, put Bettys where they are useful and use the radar. Your shooting and aiming wasn't actually bad.

E133 thank you for the tips. I did read your whole post because I am wanting to improve pretty badly. As for the camping thing I dont normally camp at all in fact i favor the run and gun (rush) method highly. I do think my aiming is almost spot on but I also think that maybe im running in blind a lot of the times and just need to slow down a bit instead of acting like my character is on crack lol. I've always been told my hand eye coordination is flawless when it comes to gaming and stuff which is one reason I dont understand why I dont get as many kills. And yes after watching the video and thinking upon it several times i can agree that the bouncing bettys need to be placed in more high traffic areas.

Stop walking towards people as you shoot.

No problem sir.



Yeah, try to strafe and shoot

I thought you broke your disc?

It can sound as a pretty stupid tip, but put your brightness to full. For campaign and zombies you should have it adjusted correctly, but in MP you will need to see enemies in dark places.

Adjust your sensibility if you haven't already.

I'm not sure if Elite still has map strategies like in mw3. If it does, lookat the spawn points of the game modes you usually play in and try to memorize them. Enemies wil nearly always spawn in points far away from where your team is. Use Skulls as a "UAV". Each time a mate dies a skull appears on screen. That will point you out that and enemy or more is there.

And most important, play the Metagame. Metagame is tha process of analyzing the enemies constantly. If you wanna play for long in a lobby try to remember what weapons the enemies use to prepare to counter them. And always have in mind different options to make a move. Try to be original in gunfights, because pub rands will always go for the most logical stuff (like if you start a gunfight and you run behind a wall with 2 exits they probably think you'll pop out the side you didn't come through, so you just wait a sec and run the same way back and own him up)

First bold is unnecessary. Second bold I have NEVER seen.
