Tips for aiming ?

I'm really feeling newbie those days... couldn't place a shotgun in the mouth of a skulk to blow his brain off

Sometimes, i aim like a PGM, sniping aliens in movement, but sometimes i really feel unlucky

I would like to break this "luck" parameter so if yuo have any good tip to share for aiming (also with aliens ability) at enemys, please share it here to improve everyone's skills.

First tip for webgorges (it's easy really ^^) :

To place webs you have to set a first "attach point", then every webs will be created between the next attach points, provided that there is no "wall" or any objects between two attach points and the distance between them is not so long.

That is why also you must not SPAM webs, as you can easily trap 2/3 rines together with an adrenaline webgorge ! Try it : Just set an attach point at a corridor and draw a "web line" when the rines are comming. They most probably won't realise your trap and try to hunt you so keep webbing them by aiming just in front of them on the ground and behind them no a wall !

I've got a better explanation, but in french here : Click here

Let me mention that bullets do not go through walls. However sometimes i get killed somehow miles away from the enemy behind a corner (as alien). Damn hitbox bug.
Acid rockets have area of effect damage. It damages through walls too, its bug abuse, and will get you banned.

You can shoot with acid-rocket to ground in front of HA, instead fo shooting directly at a marine, it gives you much more chance to damage HA because it cant dodge.

yea that happend to me many times, its so fucking gay- u try to escape behind a corner and once u are there u say "yes i made it" but u die anyway lol

Isn't that lag as much as hitbox bug...

wA

nah most of the times its hitbox. I got round corners and get killed and i didnt have lag. Ye i admit some kills are lag. But thats not what he means it hink. He means when u stand next to corner u can still get killed even when u cant see the rines,,,

well i can say when aiming the grenade launcher for close range have your target at the top of the crosshair when aiming long distance raise the crosshair

sometimes u hit someone directly but he didnt get any damage , then welcome in the land of hitbox holes

Well of cause if you hit the same spot twice the second bullet will just go through. There's already a hole there. :P
