I just can't seem to get better, even after 33 ranks, I'm still totally bad. At first, until rank 20, I got around 1.9 k/d ratio, but now... 1.1 k/d and it's falling every match.

Don't be afraid to use cover. Stealth mode works best when things around you are less "liney", that is, don't stick to a wall made of wooden planks. Crouch into some foliage or other surroundings with an irregular texture. Also the nanovision can be fooled - stick close to, for example, a crashed pod, which gives off heat, and you're invisible. Only not.

Use Nano Recharge/Energy Transfer with Stealth Enhance and Mobility Enhance. It turns bad players into great players just like that. Run around in Cloak, when you spot someone go into Armor mode, kill them then recloak. Rinse and repeat endlessly for at least a 2 KDR every single game.

They just nerfed nano and mobility, so that may change. Look - your either a FPS player or someone who gets shot by an FPS player. Enjoy the graphics, movement, and the chance to win a gun fight now and again. Let go of the KD - it is freeing.

Well, I seem to get it right by now... My problem was, I used another weapon then the SCAR. xD

Anyway, I'm using Air Stomp, Stealth Enhance and Mobility Enhance.

@kings1023@yahoo.com: ... Dude, I had the same thought when I began playing. It's frightening, how a game can change you. I was also better, when I didn't care...

There's to much with connection and lag to go nuts over KD. I mean I see plenty of 1 bars going 15-3, etc so that's a poor excuse. I just mean that some people, usually those who buy FPS are naturally better and don't require much time to pick up a new game. I was bad at WAW, Reach, and any other - but I enjoy trying, and will continue to buy them although I will never be proficient at it. I was a KD of 0.62 at one time and have gained a little in the past week, but it's all good.

- Use stealth only when you have to, when you run between covers.
- When entering a combat with another player (enemy), always (try to) turn armor mode on (at least to be prettier when glowing).
- Experiment with crouching and jumping when in combat. With less skilled enemies you can crouch to be harder to hit and have more stable weapon (as they say "the strongest poison comes in the smallest bottles"), and with more skilled ones try jumping around (like you're on speed).
- When your enemy starts shooting at you, always strafe left-right (like dancing). (and jump/crouch like recommended before)
- When entering areas where you have difficulties to spot cloaked enemies (or larger areas), use nano-vision.
- Use your suit energy wisely, don't let it drops bellow half. When you have low energy, you're doing your enemy a favor because you're easier to kill. Use covers to fill your energy up.
- If your enemy runs in cover and you're low on energy, trow him a grenade (he can start singing that song by Bruno Mars, "I would catch a grenaaaaade for youuuuu" lol)

I hope it helps.
