No longer are you in small mini-puzzles, but an interconnected world with different objectives.ĭoes this make Quake II a strong sequel…heck yes it does! Though Quake starts to take form and become its own thing. At the open for hilarity reason you can try a Grenade Jump with Hand Grenades to surprise your chaser as well.For the most part, Quake II remains to carry the tradition of Id Software’s shooters, in which would be going from room to room, killing as many evil as possible, you even have lots of backtracking and weapons carrying a light or heavy version.
Always try to take cover, drop on them from a higher platform or toss a high thrown second nade uncooked behind the cover to be safe. When you have Machine Gun, either have a plan to grab a better weapon from your position, or depart quickly for Hand Grenades for area denial to gain control over goodies in the map.
Any heavy arsenal like Rocket Launcher or Chain Gun most likely decimate you outright. Grenade will force them to jump or completely evade it as you take cover and open fire in a crouched position. A cautious enemy will cut corners at large angles to see if you're retreating or faking it. For ambushing enemy, you have to deny enemy a sightline with a Hand Grenade to hide yourself better behind the corner as they rush onto you. Best bet is luring opponent onto yourself from far hiding behind a corner then letting it loose in a crouched position. Machine Gun is a simply suicidal weapon, if you have nothing else you just chip away health of your opponent before getting knocked away.
Still, it doesn't mean you're safe from Railgun shots if you picked the wrong target to weaken or acted rather hasty. Keeping distance with short bursts, one could be able to weaken the target with advantage upon witnessing the fight behind cover or long distance. In a crowded match however, it can be handy tool to weaken enemies that are infighting with each other at a distance.
On a direct 1v1 duel, Machine Gun has a huge disadvantage against rest of the arsenal and better be ignored. When you're really close, they can pull out a Super Shotgun and blow you away. Start by short bursts as you get close to unaware targets then crouch and send stray bullets while controlling the recoil before retreat. This is risky, but the MG's accuracy makes it so that you'll have to get close in order to actually hit your target. When using it, try to get somewhat close to your target. Anything bigger than MG, means you're toast unless you surprise your opponent. While it's better than the Blaster, it can't stand up to weapons like the Rocket Launcher. The MG is much less useful in Multiplayer. Most enemies have a short stun animation, so you can equip a better weapon during the stun animation caused by the MG fire. The MG is also good for laying down constant damage on a pursuing enemy, such as the Berserker, while running backwards to escape attacks. When Guards are at a distance and are unaware of your presence, taking a few well-aimed potshots can kill them or greatly lower their health for when you encounter them at closer range. In earlier levels, the MG may be the only decently ranged weapon you have. This is a surefire way to take the Enforcer out with taking minimal or no damage. If there is only a single Enforcer and you prefer to not use up other weapons' ammo, circle-strafe around the him while firing and he will soon fall. The MG is very effective on Enforcers when circle-strafing. #QUAKE II RAILGUN FREE#
If a player turns on mouse look or free look as it may be called one can remove the large amount of recoil after firing for a short burst.The MG is also very effective against Flyers, as a few shots from it will kill them, and its spread allows you to hit multiple lined-up Flyers while you're focusing on one.While superseded by the Chain Gun as soon as you get it, the MG is still useful for taking out packs of Guards without having to eat up ammo for other weapons. It can tear up Guard and Enforcers but it falters against tougher enemies, such as Gunners, Iron Maidens and Berserkers. The MG is one of the first Weapons you'll find in the game.
