In "Skytown", I have found something really interesting.
Instead of moving all those levers to open all those doors, simply "eightball-jump" onto the roof of one of the buildings and travel around by jumping from roof to roof (like a thief).

Well, that "eightball jump" must be one thing of unreal I´m unfamiliar with.
What is it?

basically, its a rocket-jump, but using the eightball cannon. just firing straight down and jump at the same time and it will push u higher than a normal jump

Do keep in mind the fact that "eightball-jumping" decreases a fair amount of health. I recommend getting some health from a provious level or so.

it's quite easy. take a book, stay on it, and shoot it with dispersion gun. This will raise u up to the sky....nice thing in singleplay...u will get to places u never thought.

The book flying is very cool. Everyone should try it but it is better standing back and watching someone else when they are doing it.

You can also ASMD jump with the alt fire.

Also, you can use the goop gun to put down a big blob and then jumping on it. When it explodes it will throw you higher than you can normally jump and it doesn't take away as much health as the eightball but doesn't get you as high.

The ultimate in "flying" is in coop or team games when you can load up 6 eightballs in a group and aim at a teammates feet. This works very well to get a partner to good sniping spots (like the hills in Tundra) and he doesn't lose any health in getting there so he can withstand a few more hits without getting killed.

Nifty I'll try book flying again.

I prefer Unreal to the Quake series but one thing the Quake series admittedly does do better is the rocket jump. Rocket jumping in Q3 (a game which I don't actually like much) is great fun.

Rocket-Jumping, in Quake, was actually a bug. Later on, it turned out to be a good bug so they kept it in.
