Ok hey people, well I finally got UT2004 working, but I'm stuck at one double dom map. There's a lot of Link Guns lying around there so bots pick em up and nail me... so are there any tactics to help dodge/avoid getting so much damage from the secondary fire? Cause I usually die or get severely hurt in 2 seconds, before I even know who is shooting at me D: Also, in UT99 it wasn't that hard I mean I could just jump around and the bots would miss. Tips plz?

Stay out of range. It's a bit of a "if x you've already lost" thing, like jumping when your opponent has a rocket ready, being caught in a narrow dead end hallway when he has flak, or using a jump pad when someone is waiting for you with shock rifle.
Heh, weird, but I just played a link gun arena in UT2003 and I won but on same difficulty and map I keep losing in UT2004. Oh yeah, I suck so I play on Skilled.
Any more tips?

Are you playing the single-player ladder for UT2004 that I haven't tried yet but will soon? Which map is it?
headshot them
UT2004 seems to be really picky with headshots than UT. Sometimes, I swear I hit someone right on the head with the LG and it just registers as a normal hit. Kind of lame.

alt+f4. They'll never hit you
Actually, holding the power button works better. I'm not stuck anymore on DOM-ASWAN , but it took quiet some time to pass it.

Yes, I noticed that, too. Either its the lighting gun being weird, since UT2003 does the same, or people learned to tuck their heads in
I never tried it with the normal sniper rifle though cause I suck at it.
Also, something weird but I think I know what causes it, is, that I played UT2004 campaign on Experienced, and somehow, its harder than if I just play the same map using Instant Action on Skilled. I guess bots get better if you win too much and do worse if you suck? I remember that's what UTGOTY did with Xan.
