General
You are lucky, for you have stumbled across the
web's greatest newbie guide for RS. There are a few rules you
need to know before joining your first Multiplayer Rogue Spear
Game.
Never, ever, go to a website and read tactics. This
totally ruins your game, by telling you how to play it. YOU MUST
LEARN BY YOURSELF! Once you sharpen your newbie skills, you can
read "tips" not tactics.
If you ever TK in a game, say that you didn't know.
Its pretty obvious that you aren't supposed to shoot your own
team, but this works wonders anyway. A lot of newbies like you
use it.
That is about all you need to know for your pre-game
knowledge. Now, start up the zone and pick a name (this is by
your choice). Don't go into the co-op room, go straight to hostage
rescue. Pick a room that has a red bar by it under the "latency"
tab. NEVER choose one with green bars. This is so you can make
the game slower so its harder for the enemy to hit you!
Once you get in the game, you may have to wait a
while until the game is over. Then you eventually go to the inventory
screen. If it is a team adversarial game, pick the team with the
most players. This is so you can help your team out and you will
have the advantage. Your in-game name is "John Doe".
Do not change this name because if you kill a person with the
name John Doe people will get mad and leave, thus making the other
team smaller and yours at even a bigger advantage!
You must now choose your choice of weapon. My suggestion
is that your choose a weapon that has "SD" (silenced)
so you can be l33t and no one will hear you! Also, if you look
at the chat area and see something like this:
Host: HEY GRN UP
The host means that he wants you to "green
up" by pressing the red "stoplight" botton on the
bottom left hand corner of the inventory screen. NEVER EVER PRESS
THE RED BUTTON! Its a trick by the host to get your game to crash,
because he doesn't want a l33t JOHN DOE in his game. If you do
not press it, after a while a message will come up saying "you
have been ejected by the server operator." This means that
he has kicked you out of his room. Thus, you saved yourself from
crashing and wasting his time, which is what all the newbies do.
 |
If the host does not
make you green up, you will see the game countdown beginning.
Then the game will load. When you see "waiting for players"
appear press the ' key a million times so that you will make
the game go faster.The more times you make JOHN DOE: appear
in the upper left hand corner of the screen, the slower the
game will be so enemies will have trouble hitting you. |
Soon, the game will start. Congratulations, you
have just started your first multiplayer game of Rogue Spear.
Look around quickly and see what uniform your team has on, if
you see another person with a different uniform, shoot them. Do
not get nervous, and just follow around your teammates who look
like they know what they are doing. While you are following someone,
pull out a Heartbeat Sensor Jammer. This tool is for making you
invisible, so use it all the time. Walk around with this until
you see an enemy, if he hasnt shot you yet, run away and choose
your primary gun. Then crouch and stay there until your enemy
comes back into sight. When you see your enemy Shoot him in the
legs, so he will bleed more and you will get more points. Just
like in Quake 3, use splash damage to your advantage. By now you
have probably died, so press Page Up to view the other members
of your team. (dead or alive) make sure to press ' and yell directions
to the alive player so the other team will think you are really
good at this game and respect you.
Once the game has ended, you will come to the stats
page. On this page you see the number of frags (kills) you got
during the round. If you look at the text box, you see people
typing "gg". This means "gay goats" and this
is slang for "damn newbie". So when you see people typing
"gg" they are dissing you! In return to this say "screw
you, you suck at this game" or something. This is only self
defense. Nevertheless, you have a good chance of getting booted
if you defend yourself when the host says this. Rogue Spear can
be a cruel game.
For some reason, they will start to flame you back, but don't
listen to what they say because they are all experts with no comebacks.
And if you got whooped really, really badly say "DAMN ALL
OF YOU CHEATERS, I HAD MY HEARTBEAT SENSOR JAMMER OUT!!! HOW DID
YOU SEE ME" most likely, they will laugh at you and call
you a dumbass. They might even say that the Heartbeat Sensor Jammer
doesn't make you invisible. Don't listen to them because they
haven't ever read this newbie guide so they don't know the l33t
power of the Heartbeat Sensor Jammer.
When you are back at the inventory screen, remember
to get a Heartbeat Sensor Jammer and a Skorpion. If you have ever
played co-op you know that the Terrorists use skorpions and they
are badass, so if you use one you've got to be badass too. This
time, also choose flashbangs under your inventory 2 slot.
Go through the normal game loading sequence, but
when the "waiting for players" message comes up press
4 so when the game starts you automatically start on flashbangs.
When the game does start, throw a flashbang at short range to
stun your teammates (and you). This is a great tactic because
it stops the rushers on your team from rushing so you can have
a better chance at killing someone.
After getting insulted through the chat on the upper-left
hand portion of the screen, pull out your skorpion and rush ahead
or your teammates. Now that you are badass with your badass skorpion
your team will look up to you. Holding the skorpion in your hands,
rush to the other team's insertion zone and light it up. If you
go down, it will be in honor just like those badass terrorists.
By a stroke of luck, when you get to the statistics
screen, you may find out that you have killed someone. Be sure
to brag a lot and insult people, because they insult you when
you die.
Sniping
Now that you are a master of Close Quarters Combat
(cqc) we move onto sniping. In sniping, bring a Stand-Alone Heartbeat
Sensor Jammer so you can place it on the ground and you can have
a sniper rifle out and they still won't see you. Also bring a
Ak-74 Instead of a sniper rifle so you can be more like the terrorists
even when sniping.
You start the game the same way, but when the game
starts you switch to your SA HBS Jammer and place it on the ground.
Now you can go out into the open and have a prime sniping spot
while those poor enemies of yours try to locate someone invisible.
Try to stay in this spot the whole time, otherwise called camping.
Camping is the best thing for newbies to do.
Aiming
Each gun in Rogue Spear aims differently. The Newbie's
friend, the Skorpion, is a great gun but has horrible aim. The
reticule (the little red circle) stays together the whole time
while you shoot it, making it difficult to aim at one spot. However,
the Ak-74 reticule gets really wide when you shoot it, so it isnt
so hard to aim for the head, you can just aim for their belly
and a bullet will go to the head.

Conratulations, you have just graduated from Wildguy's
newbie academy. It all goes uphill from here, so good luck.
