I've been playing here for a few months, so I wouldn't consider myself a nOOb. I'm usually on the positive side of kills/deaths. But I know there's lots to learn (if only so I can kill Frag more often...damn him straight to hell!!!)...for example, binding keys and timing grenades. Is there a tip sheet that addresses "intermediate" players?

Try this page:
http://www.planetfortress.com/tfc/tfctech/commands.shtml

The basics are this:

bind "x" "command"
x can be any key
command can be one of *many* commands
The quotes aren't always necessary

The chat commands:
"say" global chat message
"say_team" team chat

Display Last Seen, Health, Armour:
%i will display the last person that was in your crosshairs
%h will display your current health
%a will display your current armour

Therefore we can create a bind to tell a teammate you are following him, as well as give him your health conditions:
bind "F1" "say_team Right behind you %i. [Health: %h Armour: %a]"
Note that the text message goes right next to the say_team command inside the quotes.

I also reccomend you make one for "Enemy SG is Down" and "Incoming Enemy." Your team will appreciate it.

If you're still reading you can find a complete list of all Half-Life console commands here: (There's right many of 'em so give it time to load)

Thanks for the links, cstone. Now that I can bind a key to detonate a dispenser, look out world! You still haven't told us how to own Frag, though . . . .

Maybe we should set up a "How to own Frag class?"

hehe

Ask John Doe on that. He's supposed to be spilling forth his bowl of knowledge. This topic is to be among them. There are some guys that do give me fits on the server. Let me think...ok

Here are the top 10 people I don't like to see on the ville. This is in no particular order.

-SilverOne (I taught him everything I know.)
-Robert E. Lee
-Mike Rotch
-Cartman
-Big Bad Zack
-Bubs
-Sully
-Bakuryu
-Mr. Penis
-John Doe

I'm not invincible.

I am honoured to make Frags list of people he doesnt like to see.

I am planning on importing over some of the threads on spy spotting, being a better engy and so on from the previous forums but its been a busy week. Perhaps if I ban myself from the servers for a spell I will get something done.

Frag, thanks for the honor. I too know that an ass-kickin' is often coming when I see you on the opposition.

I had to give up my long held HWguy affinity for spy just cause you kept slicing me beyond recognition. See you on the battlefield dude. Watch your back. You made me watch mine.

God Bless America & President Bush.
