"I need help with R63! *waits for laughter*"

I didn't think it would come to this, but I really need some advice on how to play better on R63 Live. No matter how hard I try, I seem to die almost instantly.

It doesn't bother me for a bit, but then it starts to grate as I'll go for ages without even hitting an opponent. Surely I can't be this bad!

Is there any tips on how to get an edge? I discovered my controller sensitivity was a little low so adjusted it to 5/6. It has helped a bit, but I'm still getting headshotted left, right and centre!

I mean, last night, in a game with Creepy, Tilta, Mattribute etc. I only got kills in a blind firefight (everyone in an office filled with teargas anyone?), so they were only lucky shots.

Help me out guys, I don't want to lose faith in this fantastic game!

Not quite as the AI is never as devious as humans. Only practise and some tactics makes you any good online. This I know as I am crap. Though I am a good sniper.

Or Alternatively you could practice on one player on a high difficulty

Keep your gun pointed at head height at all times, this makes sure that should you see anyone, you can kill them straight away.

Never fire while running

Fire short bursts, even when you are only a short distance away

Close doors behind you to avoid leaving trails

try standing behind a door, pull the pin out of a grenade, get right up against the door, and listen. as soon as you hear someone approach, drop the grenade. when they open it - kablammo. this is best used in bottleneck locations, and when you know no team mates are nearby.

use grenades to blow open doors - this allows you to stand some distance away, crouch down, and aim, before the door opens. by the time they notice the door has been blown, you'll be taking your first shot, and hopefully that'll be the end of them.

Depending on what gun you use, you can shoot through doors - if you know some enemy are behind one, spray the door and you may get lucky - I have killed quite a few doing this.

flash bangs are good for blinding snipers - throw one into a room if you suspect there are enemy in there, then run straight in. there is a chance they will have looked away, but it's better than just going in without.

Number 1 Tip - Learn every inch of the multiplayer maps, including any sniper positions, bottlenecks, and places to hide should you be outnumbered.

> Creepy,

did I hear my name? :P

its a gun that fires buttons off, sweet. my coat needs a new button on it. :D

or you could use the m60 and let rip
it doesnt need reloading very often and you can shoot short bursts through doors to see if you can kill someone that might be in a small room or waiting to surprise attack you

Is there a new gun out that no-one is telling me about?

Use a G3A3 or M16, the 2 best guns in the game.

Make sure you don't hold the fire button down and always use burst fire (tap at the fire button, firing off a couple of buttons at a time) it's a lot more accurate and you get very little kick back from the gun.

Try to stand still and crouch down when shooting, much more accurate.

If worst comes to worst, use remote mines (you'll most likely get sworn at a lot by annoyed people so only use that if there really is no other option)

Waaa!

I'll have Rainbow 6 and the headset.

No LIVE!

Waaaa!

Sodding training, telling me to use the d-pad! It may have said I could use A too, but I wasn't really taking much notice to be honest!

Thanks again, maybe now I won't get stuck behind a door like a cripple!

See you online sometime!
