Skulk Strategy & Gameplay

Raven_XI

<div class="IPBDescription">A short video</div>With many new players in NS2 recently and many people asking for tips on the forums, I decided it would be fun idea for me to try and make some videos of me playing NS2 with a major emphasis on how and why I make choices while playing the game.

This is my first attempt, which is a skulking video, and depending on how well it is received from the community I may choose to make more, expanding to Commanding etc.

While NS2HD seems to focus on casting and revealing changes to builds in his videos, I'm hoping this will give an idea as to what can make you a better player in NS2 by giving a greater insight into strategy of both individual success on the field and also team success as a whole. I don't know, I haven't sat down and watched all his videos, so maybe hes already got this covered and I should just crawl back into the dark hole I came from!

As far as production quality goes, it would never get any better than this... But take a look and hopefully some of you new faces may learn a thing or two.

"Good Likelihood" lolol (You will know when you hear it)

Edit: Keep in mind there are many more things I could have added but didn't. Would analyze the game way more if anyone thinks this is actually any good.

That was a good demonstration of how a skulk should be thinking and good justification for the decisions,the game although was abit off in terms of demonstration, anyways it was a good match

Great job explaining your thought processes. You should definitely repost this in the new player forum.

I could do try do something like this from a PCW, if someone's interested. I'm an average-ok skulk, so it might be of use to someone.

You're quite being modest here. :)

Good tips and video, shame the marine commander was terrible though.
