Title: Re: moves out of full screen and cant move Post by: Cacatoes on December 17, 2008, 09:51:52 AM Practice :P (and learn strafejumping ... and check for some older posts of this forum, I think there is a beginner's guide which could be worth the look)
Good luck ;) Title: Re: moves out of full screen and cant move Post by: HITMAN on December 17, 2008, 01:33:45 PM Thanks all! that was the problem. now my only problem is that I suck...any hints? ;) Heres a big hint: Learn about adjusting your settings. High FPS (125 max) is everything and low ping is crucial - generally its best to play in your own country because your ping will be low. Definately learn strafing. Raz3r has a really good post about learning how to strafe and setting adjustments. And play and spec other good players...dont assume they are cheating; they are probably actually really that good! Good Luck!

Truth is you can't pwn Cacatoes, even with screenshots :P That was funny to see we use the same kind of colors/characters, I didn't copy ;) Title: Re: moves out of full screen and cant move Post by: fufinha on December 18, 2008, 04:16:34 AM That was funny to see we use the same kind of colors/characters, I didn't copy ;) no no no.. im sure we had a deal where the lowly player had to wear the colors of the high and almighty one :D |
