Did you know that you can guide in lava, slime or water for as long as you want? Tis' true! Just jump in the lava, launch a guided missle from there, and you wont get hurt. Good idea for people who like to guide from a safe position.

Did you know that if a new level starts while your dead, you keep whats in your pack at the time of your death? This is useful if the level is almost done and you know your not going to win, but wanna have a good pak for the next level. Also good, if your a few frags away from winning, and you have set tripwires, which will win the level for you, so you can keep your pak for the next level.

In a high traffic area, shoot a few time bombs in the scrum. You should also utilize timebombs to remove campers from there camping positions.
|
|
In any level, you should always hog the sheilds. If you have a full sheild, and your near a sheild that you already have, shoot a rocket at the wall to lower your sheild, then get it again. Good defensive move.
|
|
If someone is camping, dont shy away from taking them out. Since only newbies camp, it will be an easy kill if your aggressive with them. You cant be an elite dmplus player without understanding how important it is to hog resources and take paks away from others.
|
|
While your dead, you can still tripwire and teleport/telefrag players. Think twice about respawning immediately.
|
|
The respawn positions go in a specific order. Try to remember the order for each level, and you'll find yourself with more awareness of your enemies locations on the map.
|
|
If your up against a rather difficult opponent, you gotta be creative in trying to kill them. A good tactic to use, is to shoot a dozen or so RTB's on one side of a teleport, and wait for your enemy to teleport thru from the otherside, at which point you RTB his/her ass.
|
|
If you have a pak with ALL the weapons, dont pick up a nailgun. For some reason, it makes your other weapons disappear.
|
|
Increase your speed! There are a few speed commands. The main ones are cl_forwardspeed and cl_backspeed. The max speed option for both is 600.
|
|
As Zent says... Bind everything!
|
|
Perhaps the most useful tip, is you have to know when to play aggressive and when to play conservative. Its simple logic. If you got a good pak but no sheild, teleport away. Things like that.

Don't be afraid to take on people with quad. People put too much faith in quad, and most likely they dont have any sheild, so, all it takes is a bit of aggressiveness. It pays off because if the quad guy killed some ppl before you killed him, he might have a good pak.

|
If someone with a LG is following you into some water, teleport away just before you enter the water. Your dead meat if you enter the water, but if you teleport away, your opponent will have lost all his/her cells!

Try to avoid laying down a trip that is very long. Anyone with any DMPLUS skill, will just trip the wire, at the long end of it, to prevent any frags for you.
|
|
There are TONS more little tricks in the DMPLUS mod. Some are hard to describe because they have many variabilities. You just have to pick up on them by playing a lot.
