MP Tips/Help

Post » Sun Dec 26, 2010 5:00 pm

I find Crysis 2 MP fun but it's hard IMO. I'm used to Call of Duty so Crysis is a pretty new style for me. I hate going 2-10 every match. Can any one give me some tips to get more fun out of the game? I may just need to get more time with the game but maybe some other "Newbies" could come here to find tips. :)

I am new too. I started off crap but found my groove recently. I mostly play team deathmatch.

I find that running around the map COD style is a quick way to get killed. When I started slowing down, sneaking and staying in cover, I did a lot better and finished top three some of the time.

Try slowing down, aiming at the head as much as possible and avoiding the center of maps and wide open spaces.

I also try to flank as much as I can, as a head on rush to the enemy will usually result in meeting two or three of them and getting slaughtered quickly and a head-on confrontation usually results in me getting killed in one shot even after I have emptied the clip on them at close range (this is a bug that needs fixing, although I noticed the same in black ops a lot too).

Observe before collecting dog tags. I have been killed a few times because I rushed for one without checking the immediate area. It's very tempting to go collect your prize.

One of the most difficult things for me though is how fast everyone is and how they keep jumping everywhere. It makes it hard to get a good bead on them to pull the trigger.

I think it's a case of practice and improve. Loving it though, lots of fun even if I do get slaughtered for much of the round, so the odd kill here and there is pretty satisfying LOL.

^^^ so in other words you just camp in a spot and get some poor soul as they are running around.

basically learn the maps. stealth when running from cover or point to point. also armour when going round corners.
also dont keep checking your score just have fun.

IMO COD (which I really like) promotes spray & pray. You do need a different style, which is far closer to what an FPS should be. Don't be seen, don't stick around, take them headshots, and take your time. I agree with both smokingjam and dirstyharry though, and you can combine the style. One further tip - until you learn the maps, stay very close to your team mates. You will help your team and yourself by doing this, though it's not always possible after respawning
