    i have binded "ALT" to prone
    and "z" "x" to enemy spotted.

    that way i can spam spotted for an entire base and even spot multiple enemy units.

    Binded x and c for ammo and medic request.
    People get annoyed, but they actually start to listen after you state your demands for the fifth fucking time.

    edit: as for the "seismics don't kil thing"
    Bullshit, I killed and got killed with them more than 3 times.
    (Perhaps it doesn't work anymore in 2.25 anymore, dno)

    Not really a protip, but I like how people fail to dodge vehs by trying to outrun them rather than take advantage of the long turning curve (or whatever it is called)

    Seismics do 1 damage (also to yourself).

    Are you serious?

    Eyes aren't affected by alpha changes so they are much more visible than the rest of his body.
    Usually they're too far away to notice though.

    Press H while in a vehicle to annoy random passers, then use turbo if possible to get away from them before they make it to the vehicle.

    When you are a engineer building a turret without repair upgrade takes about 70 and a bit of your charge, when u have repair upgrade it only takes 33-35.
    wink at lv 3 turrets in 1 charge

    i have 3 off the top of my head

    1. You can re-fill your ammo by changing class in a barracks/flag by pressing b and 'ok' (its faster than having to reload a gun or finding an ammo crate)
    example of use: if your playing district and there is a stalemate sit in a flag room as scout and spam flashbangs and smoke until the opposing team starts to whine and (eventually) ragequit, giving your team the advantage and you winning :)

    2. Don't let Cpatton in the command vehicle.

    3. Speed upgrade is the most useful upgrade for every class in most situations
