    Practice. lol theres not really anything I can tell ya. I played 1 vs 1 tournaments, and CTF. Only suggestion I can give is use the rail gun as much as possible. I used to play guys that played in Quakecon. I actually beat some semi-finalists in tourney. Use a small crosshair like the dot. If the person is far way use the rail or machine gun. If hes close use rail or shotgun. And when using the rocketgun aim a little infront of the person. Almost always the person is running. I can see if I can find the game.. i'm sure I still have it somewhere. And I can show ya some rocket jumps. That I remember. Don't want creds or anything just like to help. And it's been 5 years! since i've even played it.

    I have been playing Quake 3 for around 3 years, so I know some tips...


    1. When using rockets, always aim at peoples feets.
    2. When playing InstaUnlagged ( railguns only ), never stop moving, even when you shoot
    3. When playing InstaUnlagged, occasionally crouch and jump.
    4. Machine guns are your friend when you're playing on the map Q3CTF4
    5. I personally hate using gauntlets, but if worst comes to worst and you run outta ammo, don't be afraid to charge the enemy with your gauntlet on
    6. When playing InstaUnlagged, with railjumps on, always use them, they can make you run through maps insanely fast and will make you hard to hit
    7. I like my sensitivity either way up or way down. Way down is probably better for beginners, and way up is good for veterans.

    the fps revolution Quake was... I love it, I've stopped playin some time ago, though, and I can help you with some stuff, the basic for every pro :D...

    strafe jumping - at the same time you jump, strafe left or right and turn to the side you strafed, example: strafe left, aim left and jump, strafe right, aim right, jump...

    rocket jump - with the rocket launcher, aim down, jump and about 0.1 seconds later, fire...

    plasma climbing(is it the correct name?) - get to a wall, aim slightly down, jump and at the same time hold fire... needs practice to know where exactly to aim, and to get as high as possible... btw, in q3dm6, with enough practice, you can plasma climb to the top of the bounce that leads to the rocket...

    these are the basic moves (might've forgot some, i don't play it for ages), they all need a LOT of practice... if you ask questions, it's easier to help you, btw ^^

    Armor is every 24 secs, have a timer on (cg_drawtimer or something) and check it every time you take red armor.

    If you only have mgun, switch between mgun and gauntlet, doing the oppo site of the opponent. Run round a corner and get gaunt out, when they come run round and pummel them hard :D
    Learn the physics, you will play a lot better if ur used to it, its like no other game... cept q2 1 and 4 :D:P
