XMPHint(16) = Don`t move fast / jump / dodge cos this makes you easier to spot. If an enemy has spotted you, stand still and you will be harder to kill.
XMPHint(17) = Don`t move while shooting, this will increase your aiming skill.
XMPHint(18) = You can link with every weapon in xmp like with the link gun in UT2k3/4. Just shoot at your buddys.
XMPHint(19) = Vehicles at your base can`t be used until the `driver-bot´ spawns. This can take some minutes. Just wait near the vehicle. (He wears a jelly bag cap and is smaller than the regular player)
XMPHint(20) = Don`t let teammates get in your vehicle, they can push you out of the car. The more player use the same vehicle the slower it is.
XMPHint(21) = Cheaters have colored and weird Nicknames. Don`t let them cap artis, better tk them close to the node.
XMPHint(22) = Energy depends on killed enemys and captured artis.
XMPHint(23) = Juggernauts flamethrower is one of the most effective weapons in xmp. Killing three enemys in a row will launch the secret nuclear missle.
XMPHint(24) = Gas grenates can be used to heal several mates at the same time.
XMPHint(25) = Use the sniperrifle, assault rifle or pistol to kill player sitting in vehicles (you can use the vehicle later by yourself)
XMPHint(26) = You can`t hack doors except you are a tech. Search the bodies of killed enemys for the key.
XMPHint(27) = Master Server down? Just reinstall xmp.

Damn you guys! :mad: This is not what i was hoping this thread to turn out to!

You guys are soooo inconsiderate for the noobies! How are we going to get them to enjoy the game without any tips or pointers loading splash screens!?


OK now, lets all try again. :)

Ok, to get back to the topic

Something that might be worth spending some time on is a tutorial map, just going over the basics. U2XMP has one, but I think most people fell asleep before the end of it :)

Yeah, the tutorial in U2XMP was too flashy and dragged. Thet need something more simpler and straight forward.

I just feel that the combination of the game being sorta confusing for them aswell as being laggy with bad handling vehicles is what turned off alot of people in the beginning.

Yes, it is extremely needed.

Or it could be replaced with simple one (Kirk):

Step 1: Go to Energy Source
Step 2: Hax
Step 3: Repeat from step 1
