Ok..this is one of my very few "tricks", so I'll share with you all. It's for Face, of course. I always see people getting the flag, running out the teleporter to the top of the base, then bouncing, one ledge at a time, to the bottom.
Here's a better way. Get the flag, go to the top(grab the armor if it's there), then drop down ONE ledge. Move to the back of the tower, throw your teleporter to the widest part of the ground behind the base. Once it hits the ground jump off(I use dodge forward for maximum clearance). Make sure you are far enough away from the base to be directly over ground, and not a lower ledge, and t/l to your beacon. Wait a few seconds and the flag will come falling to the ground. Pick it up, run around the side, and back to your base. It helps to have a nuke to cover your tail, and for your teamates to know what side your coming out on also.
Now you've made it all the way to the ground with the flag, and you haven't damaged yourself by misjudging the next step, and it's faster.
Also, if you're seriously damaged while picking up the flag, STAY ON THE FIRST LEDGE. Tell your teammates to meat you behind the enemy base. When they arrive, perform the trick, and let one of them pick it up. They run it, you provide cover.
I KNOW some of you have got to know this, but I never see it done online, so there it is. My one and only secret on Face is now revealed.
