Here's a few:

1. Crouch and stay still for better accuracy when shooting.

2. Hit "e" to pick grenades up to throw back at an enemy (my personal favorite feature of the game).

3. Hold down the "shift" key to sprint.

4. Hit "q" to go prone.

5. Expect to die alot if you're new.



P.S.- Using my crosshairs helps too. They can be found here.

.....mom? do i need to do this....?

...aww...


1. crouch, stay still, and burst fire. In DoD if you have an automatic it won't take more than 2-3 bullets to kill a person.

2. with a garand/kar take your chances, line up and fire at that sniper/shape in the distance. most likely you will hit him.

3. check all areas. proceed with caution.

4. you can prime grenades. just hold the fire key down. but not for too long ;D

DON'T TRY TO BHOP!!! but if the fatigue does get you from sprinting around liek a german with his schnitzel on fire, then jksut crouch to regain it faster, i think proning works too...

and you can bind "x" "prone" to any key you want to prone, mines g

and bind "x" "+speed" to sprint, mines f so its nice and easy to get to, not that shift isn't

You cant prime by simply holding down "fire" like in TFC - you can hold down fire as longas u want.

How to prime your own nade (Do this FAST):
1. Thrown down ur own nade onto the floor in front of you
2. Find that nade fast (you have around 3 secs before it blows in ur face) and pick it up using the “e” key.
3. Throw it fast! Now when it hits the ground it will explode almost instantaneously, giving ur enemy no chance to react!


Other tips:

Getting use d to your weapon’s recoil- Stand facing a wall and continuously fire a clip. Take note of how bullet placement continuously changes and use this fact to judge how you are going to aim at a person. E.g. the Garand recoil goes up quite drastically after each shot – so when you encounter the enemy at close range, aim for the feet/lower torso- recoil will send the next shot if you missed the first towards the body with a higher chance of hitting. Likewise for other guns such as the Thompson’s diagonal recoil.

6. Listen for footsteps and enemy weapon fire.

7. Hit "z" to bandage to stop bleeding.

8. Hit "h" to drop MG ammo.

9. Watch Band of Brothers and Saving Private Ryan for inspiration.

10. Use my crosshairs.

I don't think you can attach images to a post on this board and I don't have a host. Screen shots are in the original thread though.

<<BUMPAGE>>

Some good points Fonky. Long live Panzer-Staffel.

BTW, I have seen the {Brew!} and the {Bier!} clan around lately. Do you think they are going to finally drag themselves out of the tavern long enough to play a few rounds! LOL!
