Hey guys, Somewhat recently got into crysis, got to a point where I'm not smashing my face into my keyboard in frustration and forcing myself to watch kill replays to learn a bit. Going to start posting some vids on my youtube account, lemme know what you guys think/tips/ideas.

You're doing great, keep it up.
Try running without cloak and see how it works out for you. It gets you killed easily and unexpectedly when spotted. Use it only in state of emergency or infiltration.
Change Stealth Enchance to Blind Spot. (I used to do the cloaking thing as much as you once but avoiding it is also pretty effective if you know how to dodge bullets or use the environment as cover.)
Don't start using laser scar.

It's not really that not using stealth makes you play better, I mean lots of good players use a lot of stealth but it's not as fun for everyone if everyone is cloaking so don't get into the habit

Running without stealth is noobish.If you want to play without stealth, you have to slow down your gameplay style.If you run around without stelath, your ass will be raqed make no mistake about it.If you are not using stealth, you have to learn how to use the map against your enemy, know all about traffic and choke points of map.And one more thing accuracy.If your accuracy is bad don't even think of playing without stealth.And learning about those things takes time.So first learn the map properly and then stop using stealth if you feel confident.

And one more thing armor.Use it everytime you engage.If you want to excel in this game and still maintain a camp free fast gamestyle you have to master the suit usage.

Don't mean to hijack the thread but can i ask some tips here, rather than making another thread.
I use stealth pretty much all the time(and use nanovision most of the time), so i often take break and recharge. and i hardly ever use armor, only started to use it recently.
My main problem is that im out of energy when i make a kill even if i dont get hit, therefore very easy target. Now days i try to turn on armor before firing but its almost impossible when u suddenly encounter an enemy. (and hard when you are facing em cos they'll c u)
Any suggestions?

Hear your enemy.Use a premium headset to locate enemy position.What are your perks btw?And if you are running in stealth don't let your energy bar fall below 50.Make sure it is always over 50 percent.iN most maps it is very easy to make out where you will find your enemy.Watch the radar.Use max radar efficiently.Its almost a legalized wallhack.Don't ever run around in armor.It slows you down.But always activate it when you think enemy is nearby.And when running make small jump in jiz jag pattern by light pressing space bar.It doesn't consumes extra energy and will make it hard for enemy to aim.

Hehe cool, thanks for the useful tips dude.. yer i dont use headset n usually have the speaker volume on low.
My favourite setting is nano recharge, stealth enhance, mobility enhance. haven't had chance to test energy transfer and retriever much cos i've been rebooting nanosuit.

But always activate it when you think enemy is nearby.
Really? I don't do this at all. Wouldn't it be too risky unless i know the location of the enemies? cos they'll be able to see me(on sight or on radar) if i activate the armor.

Truedat. If you watch gameplay from one of the guys who doesn't use cloak, they play so much slower than people can play as cloak rushers.

I enjoy rushing around cloaking between cover throwing off my enemies and pouncing etc on their asses.

Yeah now that I think of it, my pace has dropped a bit.
But there's nothing noobish about running w/o cloak if, like I said, you know how to do it. In fact, running with cloak all the time carelessly and intrepidly is taking everything for granted, you just know you'll get the first shot. This is why you are at such a fast pace.
Anyways, it's about balancing everything at your disposition.

Not really.If you are running without stealth, then the chances of you getting the first bullet is more than a guy who is running in stealth.And this is where acccuracy comes into the equation.If you are getting shot first, do u have that accuracy and skill to survive that 1vs1?Most likely a newcomer will lack in that area.And the logic why a guy without stealth will get the first bullet is quite simple.The guy in stealth can see you from a distance but you can't see him.

Good video OP.Forgot about that completely.

Getting the first shot means you start shooting first.

Thanks for the input. Ive tried not using stealth as much, It is almost as effective for me but I find myself just getting bored w/ the gameplay. So for now I think the stealth/unstealth playstyle is fine for me at the moment because I'm still getting better daily, when I find myself skillcapped I'll think back to this and attempt a playstyle change-up and see how that works for me.

Running without stealth is noobish.

I died laughing at that. Noobish to be seen and still raqe face? I find the better players rarely use cloak. The noobs are the ones running around in stealth like they can't be seen, it's called hiding in plain sight, taking camping to a new level. As far as slowing down by not using cloak, no sir, I pride myself on being a fast/elusive player, the only time you see me being still is while spotting or defending crash sites. I've tried being a cloak noob a few times and I can't take it, its so boring. I like to be able to run in and mow as many fools down as possible, with shotgun/cloak ur lucky to take down 2 ppl if their in the same area. If ur not confident in ur abilities enough to take on all comers go ahead, cloak it up.

lol. GTFO

Telling that using any suit thingy is noobish - that's my way.

Using armor - noobish!
using visor - noobish
using support powers - noobish
using stealth - noobish
using anything -noobish.

so, gtfo and play classic people.
this is crysis, and this is disaster. so, i will use stealth and the suit the way i like it, and i don't care what anyone says about how noobish it is.

That why you make gameplay video playing against noobs.Never seen a single video of yours against a single pro in other team. lAnd as i told you this once playing without stealth gives you KD of max 2 or more and playing with all suit modes gives you KD like mine 3.41.Now svck that and GTFO.Only some insanely good players like krytonz and bitey can maintain awesome KD inspite of playing without stealth.

And yes i play for KD.Anyone have a problem with that?And BTW i meant to say running without stealth when u are new in this game is noobish.When you have mastered the skills then why not run around without it.

And as if i really care what a noob like you with KD of 1.54 and pathetic accuracy of 22.22 thinks about my comment.ROFL

This!

k/d reflects only the complete gameplay when u would show the real k/d look at monthly or daily k/d

Let's not forget that laser scar you only use.

^really?

And frankly i never used laser with any of my weapons since i started playing.I started using it after i saw all esl guys using it.And i only came to know it was an exploit after i read this forum.And i am always at disadvantage while playing in EU or US server with my 200 and 300 plus ping.So i don't mind my laser making up for that disadvantage.

LOL, I play the objective son, I'm not some selfish punk concerned about my KDR. I'm the one taking deaths in order to get crash points while you hide n snipe/ camp in cloak waiting for someone to please run in front of you. And if I'm not mistaken you're the one I used to see hiding out in the DDD servers, talk about playing against noobs LOL! There are very few ppl I dread playing against (Bitey/Sdub/etc) and you aren't one of them, you sir are just another face in a sea of bodies. Troll the airport son, cuz ur sh!t don't fly here.

^Cool story grandpa.Hope this will make you think twice before calling me selfish again.





Talk about fearing S-DUB.No wonder only noobs fear him.ROFL.And btw i don't play in DDD server.Becoz i get terrible ping there.And me camping with sniper, see my weapon usage in the above screenshot.Less than 2000Kills with sniper and i have over 100,000 kills.

And you playing for objective and still have win loss of only 1.70.What do you do in CS? Think when your son will get his job while people raqe ur ass.ROFL

Since you guys obviously loved the video and can't stop talking about it, here's another one!
