This is the second of a four part series on Brittys guides.
Today, you're an innocent! (well in the game you are, we know what your really like!!)
Your aim is to survive the round!
Here are some tips to help you.
1) Learn the maps. Play the maps according to your strengths.
2) Don't always play the same. If you typically hide in a particular spot, remember that all dead players can spec you. If you use the same spot over and over, be aware that other players may know that you like hiding there
3) Don't trust ANYONE to begin with. The only way you can be sure is a) they are detective, b) you have zeused them, c) they carried out a KOS on a traitor, D) they called a KOS on traitor and e) You saw them attack a traitor.
4) Know the strengths and weaknesses of strategies. Like to hang in the crowd? Strength in numbers? Be careful of those Jihad bombs! Also know you are vulnerable to be mowed down. Like to hang by yourself? You are an easier target solo than in a group. Theres no concrete right way or a concrete wrong way to play.
5) Know your guns! Don't be running around in a small populated area with an AWP!
6) Use mic only to convey useful information! Far too often a KOS is missed due to unneeded mic spam.
7) On the topic of mics, listen carefully to the calls. KOS means Kill on sight! Don't worry about the consequences if you kill them and you are innocent, the onus is on the person who called the KOS!
8) Adhere to the rules. Don't RDM! Don't traitor bait! Keep updated with the rules in case they change
9) Use the shop !shop, you can get a zues WHICH DOES NOT DAMAGE PEOPLE, it tells you if the person is an innocent or a traitor. CONVEY THE RESULT ON MIC! People NEED to know who is an inno and who is a T.
10) HAVE FUN! If you get killed, don't worry. It's all a bit of fun!
11) ID BODIES! You need to know how many people are alive to get a clearer picture
12) While Life Checks can be called by anyone, you dont HAVE to answer. No one can make you answer and it is not a KOSable offence to keep quiet. Life checks can be good for either side, T's like to know how many are left. Innocents can call to see if they are one of a few players left. It's upto you whether you answer, if you feel uncomfortable or are hiding in a great spot - why bother answering!
