is it me or do lots of people stand directly behind cover, and not farther back for more cover and/or escape from nades and such.

kind of a pet peeve of mine to see someone standing right in the middle of the window with the whole torso exposed.
 
the first part doesnt make scence to me. second part yehh on dust it happens all the time, means i take them out faster
 
I know what he's saying.

If one were to look through a window, the further away you are from said window the less exposure one would have. However, the less exposure, the less field of view. Usually, when I'm shooting through a window, I do not shoot directly in front of me, so much as above/below me, so yeah, I stand right in front of the window. However, I will crouch down and wait for the next wave.
 
Well when I play INS or any other modern FPS with the ability to die in one hit, i stand a little bit back from the window in the shadows if their are any. It does reduce the field of view however it makes it much harder for the enemy to put one in your chest.
 
Always make as little as possible available for a possible target. Most of the league players that killed me this season, were almost invisible. I only saw a little eyeball, and corner of a head. THEN BLAM! I was dead.
 
Not using the lean keys to lean around a corner is stupid no one should be exposing there whole body, however they do need to implement combat rolling =)

spot on with my intentions. the below screenshot is only taste of what i mean.

i like to snipe farther back so there is less of me visible. in the case of buhriz, you dont really need a huge view field because the enemy comes from only a couple of spots. if i need to get more view its not a problem to run forward real quick. but if you swing around to both windows and move around you can cover nearly the entire front and keep yourself in good cover.
 
yea i tend to just crouch and when u go into cross hairs your gun usually lifts itself over the ledge of a wall or window depending on what your cover is
 
I peek aroudn alot when i do play INS. HOwever, I dont go in windows, i hide behind walls. It helps alot
 
Leaning is silly. What you're supposed to do is run around the corner as fast as you can and shoot the person camping there first. When you move slowly, the camper will easily get you. But, when you move fast their first shots will miss. Then you know exactly where they are and react fast enough to put those two pistol shots between the ears.

Or you could lean. Which means you're more likely to survive. The other way is just way more cool. :)
 
Well those are some great ideas, just remember who usually has the RPG though and how easily it is for me to blow your socks off with my surgeon like shots :)
I personally use the strafe buttons a lot, along with the further back cover its really handy in Buhriz while sniping from Bravo building. There is no escaping my RPGs in that map though so thats the weapon I usually use... argh... scattered thoughts... sorry its mid day and I haven't ate anything all day bleh...
 
I've been using the leaning a lot more lately and it really works! You guys shouldn't use it though cause I need a few more points to grab that number 1 spot. You guys can have it back after I get it though and then you can start leaning again.
 
Well you might want to take that comment back, because when... IF you get the number one spot you will see just how hard it is to maintain that status. Being in the number one spot you have to be on your A game at all times, because once you get killed there goes 15-25+ points of yours. When your trying to get your points back, you now have to get 10 kills in a row without dieing to get 20 points, so its like a roller coaster ride with your points. I'm working on getting to 4,000 points at them moment and it is truly hell... damn noobs with nothing to lose.
 
Actually, PDS, you get points for streaks as well. So 10 kills in one life is actually 29 points (2 for each kill 9 for the streak). Assuming of course, that every person you kill is so far below you that you don't get more than 2.
 
Oh yeaahhh!! I forgot about that, well gosh darn! Thanks APR, hehe I have been getting a lot of 'God Likes' sooo this shall do... sorry I just woke up about 10 minutes ago LOL I really need to get back on my sleep schedule. :sleep:
 
Oh, PIMP, I know how it is. I once lost 50 points from a death and it made me sad for the rest of the day. I've been easing my way up the ladder for a while now, but I really don't like camping all the time so I'll probably just take #1 for a day or so, and then go back to the good old days of running in with a live grenade to clear a point of enemies.

On a good note: I died today and only lost 2 points so that was a nice suprise.
