Post by: maxell on May 22, 2008, 12:39:37 pm
i beileive it has been posted allready (i am sorry people) but i indend on bring in it up again...

ok. if you a new to tremulous try not to go an a server FULL of people without a clan tag, (more chances there are noobs) and go on a server  with lots of good players, i often find myself that Game Arena is often a good place for it, there spectate and try some moves that the more use to players are doing you will learn a lot, also some terms you should know:

Camp(camping)=  Staying in base doing nothing or spamming
Spam(spamming)=  shooting without aiming, shooting ramdomly, NOTE: different people may have a different insite of the term "spamming"
PS: most players do not like spammers (people spamming) and you will often find  yourself kicked or banned if you continue or persist
Talk Spam = samething as the one above only you spam not with your gun but with your talk
Decon=  deconstruct a building WARNING: DO NOT DECONSTRUCT THE MAIN BUILDINGS WITHOUT WARNING YOUR TEAMMATES (main building are armoury called "arm", telenodes calles "spawns" or "tele" or "ele", Reactor called "RC" or "rc", overmind called "OM" or "om", eggs called "spawns" or "eggs")
Feed= going or attacking alone naked (with no armor) or just walking up to a player and standing there (also bad to do, can be kicked, banning is rare for this reason but does happen)

just a tip: read some topics around here and see what what people say and some tips...

if you have any other terms i missed out on or any important tips plz reply to me and i will edit my post

Honestly, this is common sense. And, many times, not pertinent. Camping can (rarely) save the day, spamming (especially chaingun crews) can keep the foes back. Chat spam can be used to flood out rude or annoying players (use sense in this, be very cautious. Many times, you will be worse.) Deconning is always bad, make sure your team knows. I've been surprised by a move because it wasn't called right. (Using slang terms for locations like "sands" and "stairs" can save time, but disorient your teamates, which is *BAD*!!!) Feeding can be (rarely) used to distract the other team (Example: dretches rush. While humans stop, rants rush in and kill human base.)
