Tips and tricks
- Learn the spawn points. Most levels reuse the same few entry points, and knowing them turns panic into routine.
- Keep your cursor or crosshair roughly where enemies appear, not on the spot where the last one died.
- Sound tells you where an enemy is before you can see it. Headphones help more than you would expect.
- Prioritise the threat that will hurt you soonest, not the one that is closest or biggest. Fast enemies before slow ones, shooters before melee.
