walkingCat November 25, 2012 Share walkingCat Member November 25, 2012 I bought the game last night. I have no clue what this game all about. I'm not planning to wait too long to install it and have a try. Any tips for a noobie like me? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chick82 November 25, 2012 Share chick82 Member November 25, 2012 Survivors vs Infected! Play the maps before you play the server though, like just a regular non-versus game: 1) Gives you an ideal on where you are going 2) Just a helpful way to learn the game i.e. what all the infected do On the server: There's great threads, and most people are pretty helpful on using the buy menu and stuff. Versus: You play anywhere from 2-5 maps (campaign dependent) 2 teams You each go as survivors/infected then switch roles. Team with the most points wins Send me an invite if you want Cat & you can do a few maps w/ me and tirtul. It's good to know choke points and also just basic stuff. P.S. NO rushing There is more but I'm tired and don't want to type anymore lol. Hope this helped Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tirtul November 25, 2012 Share Tirtul Member November 25, 2012 I recommend playing the single player first just to understand the basics of the game before you go onto the gc server... it has a high learning curve. if you want some pointers lemme know I will be more than happy to walk through a game and explain things for you.

Biggs November 25, 2012 Share Biggs GC Alumni November 25, 2012 I recommend jumping straight into the gc server... it's not like anyone will ban you When you do hop in the GC server, you'll want to use the !enemyvoice command so you're not hearing both teams (super confusing initially).

Lookback November 25, 2012 Share Lookback Member November 25, 2012 (edited) Play a little single player first Stay towards the front fo the group and always keep line of sight Spit on people that are pinned or incapped, then die on them immediately Never charge people forwards Type !buy in the chat menu to use your points You will be fine.

Baloosh November 25, 2012 Share Baloosh Member November 25, 2012 Above all, listen to your teammates and follow their advice/directions. Especially the ones who sound like they know what they're doing. If they say move, move. If they say stop, stop... etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tonerrrr November 26, 2012 Share tonerrrr Member November 26, 2012 Just hop in and listen to what everyone says. I wouldn't try "admining" at first until you get a handle on the game *cough Tsunami *cough... JK! There's always a lot going on. When you are survivor you need to be alert 100% of the time, infected, not so much, just need to know what special infected to be, or what not to be, at what time. If someone says "get off the charger", click your middle mouse button (or zoom) until you're off of the charger ha. People will use nicknames for things like "incap" even. Do you know what an "incap" is? It means a survivor is on the ground and they need to get picked up or bought up since they are incapacitated. This is a reeeeally simple example but if there are things people say and you don't understand, just ask. The good news is people are SUPPOSED to help you on the server. Since it looks like you speak English, just joining in shouldn't be a big deal. ONE LAST THING: USE YOUR MIC AND SPEAKERS FOR BEST COMMUNICATIONALZ.

Sess1on November 26, 2012 Share Sess1on Member November 26, 2012 Just listen to your team and try and stay in the front of the group (the back is the hardest and most hit). Also, fix your rates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ctrlfrk November 27, 2012 Share ctrlfrk Member November 27, 2012 One thing I quickly learned was that if someone tells you not to be/stand somewhere, it means you're between 5 and 10 seconds away from being instantly killed. There are a few very nasty deathcharge spots and chokepoints that can destroy your entire team if you get caught in them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
