Once the match has started, try to hit a few chests. (preferably not the same ones that others select) This tactic normally gets me 2-3 chests. After that, follow a route or have an alternate route. (plan these out ahead of time) Know your enemies! If they seem to be the ones that tend to obliterate you, RUN FOR THE HILLS! except in deathmatch.... if it's in deathmatch, you're dead anyway and you will make A LOT of enemies...(including me) if you decide to run with full hunger -_-) Being stalked by an annoying person who always stalks you every match with spy kit? Run for some stairs or a narrow place where they're funneled into a choke point. This will maximize your hits on them and may even get you a nice kit to use. You can also change your texture pack to see spy users better, but I recon not doing this because this will put you on the hit list for many kitters including me :| Out of food? If you're a donor, type /kit vsg, or know routes that go off your routes to find food. low hunger bar? find a corner to eat food in to cover blind spots. You can even use abandoned buildings and just close the door to prevent spy users from sneaking up on you! In deathmatch? Find a place that gives you a strategic advantage over the opponent. I've beaten many with a lot more health than me by finding a place that gives me an advantage when attacking. Side notes: DO NOT HACK! These "hacked" clients will earn you many an enemy and will get your stats wiped! Alliances are up to you. I generally don't do alliances because I'm greedy like that xD Make the most of your food. Don't eat a porkchop when you need to fill one hunger. Trick your enemies! run around with a gold sword, then pull out an iron sword when they get close > Don't be a jerk. Activity like this will probably earn you some enemies that will hunt you down no matter what even follow you from spawn with spy kits :| If you have no armor against kit buffer, chances are, the buffer will always 1 hit you. Watch your back! turn around every once in a while to check for admirers :3 Don't hide :/ if you know you're going to be destroyed in deathmatch... please... please... DO NOT DRAG IT ON AND ON FOR ANOTHER 5 MINUTES BY RUNNING!!!!! This gets you nowhere... That's about it. Make friends with some regular people in SG and try not to get on their bad sides! also, follow some of the tips above to win SG!
I agree with pretty much everything in your thread except this: Although it can be annoying to have people run, sometimes you can't blame them. Personally, if I have better or equal gear then the other player, I'll fight. If I have lower gear then the other player, I'll run until I am in a strategic position. For example, sometimes I will try to find a 1x1 hole that I can get under the player. This will give you a chance. I don't think that you should have to just give up because the other player has better gear. However, I don't exactly agree with running and camping.
I agree with you completely, however, I just HATE it when people run for forever knowing they're going to lose .... it gets them absolutely nowhere and it prolongs the game by like 5 minutes :/
Alright, I see what you mean. I mainly just wanted to point out that sg has a lot more than just fighting, such as running, that people just don't think of.
honestly I have been to afraid to try out the games It makes me nervous beyond belief. I don't have the guts to do it.
Is it bad that I caught backtothepast off guard and killed him while he was invisible... I don't think I'll ever win sg with team rheas in it again...
One tip I have when I SG on this server is to not immediately become a high priority target, meaning before the match starts, I try to use kits without ever revealing them in m hand. I'll be honest, as a user with the Spy Kit, if I see someone equip a nice shiny stone sword right at 60 seconds until start, I am going to go invisible with spy kit...turn on MY MIQ kit, and take you out because you're going to be a huge problem in the deathmatch...
