However hard i try i just cannot get used to playing this game. I can never kill anybody but can always get killed

. I can play all my other games just fine (CSS,MOHAA,Farcry,etc) but not AA.
Anyone got any good tips on how to play this hard game

.
Thanks

Aim

No, really, use the iron sight as often as you can, ive also found that using single shot works best, but i aint played it in about 5 months.

Thanks. I always use the scopes so never used ironsight. Will try it now

I used to play this years ago, then got a bit bored of it.

I did havea 50 honor account (took 2 years to get..) and when I logged back in after a year it had gone

It was a good laugh, some nice maps, not too big but OK. loved playing with the RPK, ownage weapon that.

I had all the extra stuff except the Medic class, wasnt worth the hassle. E&E wasnt too bad if you went slowly.

I may sign up again and start over when I get my new card(s).

Do you still have to start doing the laser guns in the training camp?

go on the site and see if you can find a bit about expired accounts, it may still exist but needs re activating

also, dont spam, doesnt work, single shots with iron sights, also camping if ** on defense works best, this is a patient game isntead of running in spamming

thanks, didnt notice that, just hoping it was on my hotmail account, not on an ISP one that I used to have...

Saying that, I'll be a 50 honor noob again :rolleyes:

basically in this game u gotta chill out... take everything slow, and stick to walls, lean first then move. stay down when ** in the battel zone too.

Use flashbangs often, they work really well. Creep around and camp if you need too, use good headphones. I just started using my Medusa's after using my 2.1 speakers and you won't believe the difference in sound. I can now hear people walking from miles away, much, much easier to get some kills.

Does anyone have a clan in AA?

Best results work when you sit in a quiet place and listen. Your ears are your best friend. You can normally decipher where someone is, or someone is running too by the sound of the terrain, etc etc.

It improved my gameplay 10 fold by getting a nice soundcard, and some nice speakers or headphones.

Other than all of the above, practice practice pratctice. If you enjoy the game do not give up just because you seem as if you cannot kill !!

Its a great game, just takes time !

Played this quite a bit till recently when I bough bf2 & sF together.......
Cant say I've played AA since, but for a free game it's excellent, and it did take a bf2 purchase to get me off it....!

I second that, found my Medusa's buried in my cuboard last night. AA is 10X easier when you have good sound. I was using my 2.1 speakers and I couldn't hear footsteps or anything, just gunfire. I can now hear footsteps from the other side of the map!
