Miscellaneous

A list of other secrets that don't fit into any of the categories.
Thanks to all who sent these in.

• When a spy dies and doesn't gib, keep an eye on his body it will show what disguise he is changing to in real-time. So next time he comes along you will know what to expect and you can warn the rest of your team in advance.

• To cure hallucination gas effects as a spy just feign death, then get up again.

• In maps like Hunted or 2Fort, rock, or even the well, snipers can launch team-mates incredible distances with a full charged shot at the correct angle.

• As a sniper it is best to face towards your own base so the enemy will be running away and with his back to you.

• You can use explosive weapons such as grenades / pipes / rockets to damage enemies on the other side of a gate such as on Avanti or Dustbowl.

• The use button (+use) will allow you to have a much greater friction on the ground and make you move slower, so if you know your going to be sniped by an enemy or *cough* team-mate they won't move you hardly an inch.

• When you play as the spy, the next time you Feign death try doing it when you are crouching. If you do it right you will stand up and feign. The good thing is that if someone like a sniper shoots your body, or a medic stands on you and tries to infect you to death they won't hit you because your body is technically in the air!

• If you shoot a pipe at a sloped ledge and get it to stick, it will sit there rattling away for a few seconds before flying off. They go for miles. There are heaps of spots where it works on epicentre, Dustbowl& warpath. On epicentre, if you stand on the top ledge with the resupply bag which overlooks the enemy base roof/yard, look at the wall back towards your own base and shoot some yellow pipes about halfway up the wall. The will bounce back and get stuck on the ledge below before flying off either over the enemy roof (good for taking out any sniper/sollie up there) or bounce off the sloped ledge against the wall of the enemy base which is facing APC (pipes stick here too) and continue to go all the way up to the APC.

• Emps go thru walls and celings!

• A backstab can kill ANY class in one hit, even from full health.

• You can shoot other ppl's rockets with your rockets.

• You can shoot your own grenades with your rockets.

• Concs are illusions. Try this with a friend: goto mulch_dm and have him conc you and then you shoot a weapon that does not need to be reloaded without moving your mouse (so you must either be a scout, medic or hw). To you, you are shooting in a figure-8 pattern, however, your friend will say you aren't--you are shooting in the exact same place.

• Two spies feigning on each other in water can levitate in air by repeatedly trying to jump/feign on each other.

• If your an engy, put down a SG base, and have a concing class conc you while only the base is down. You can be halfway across the map and still be building. Great for use in heavy enemy territory!

• If you're an engineer, you can bounce other classes around by shooting the railgun into their feet.

• EMP's also blow detpacks.

• In the Main Menu it is possible to select and play a "New Game", which is like a single player TFC.

• TFC is good on any day of the year but on christmas day you will notice that some of the grenades have replaced themselves as presents :p, if you’re a server admin you can turn it on manually by typing “tfc_birthday 1” but u wont get the corney quotes if its not xmas!

• You will get a point for Healing Infection, Defusing detpacks and Undiscuising a spy.

• When your walking around with the sniper-rifle primed, you cant pick up bags.
