Mutation Mode Tips
So I'm sure you all played mutation mode at one point or another since nearly half of the servers and channels are just Mutation Mode games now.
Well here are a few tips for "noobs"
Staying Alive
Obviously this is your main objective, so here is a few tips for each level
Port
1. A Site is always a good place to go, run up the ledge to get a height advantage on mutants. They will also have to come up the ledge in single file so that makes it easier to hold them back. The more the merrier applies to this. If you have like 5 or 6 people up there with you, you will have a better chance of surviving. If you find a lot of people up there during the 20 second countdown, throw a flash grenade near the 4 second mark so that if someone turns into a mutant, they can't see you and you will have a few seconds to back off.
2. When at site A, continually peer over the edge to make sure the mutants aren't trying to give each other a boost up which will catch you off guard since they can't really be seen doing this because of the height advantage you have.
3. There is a container at site B which you can get to. It hangs in the air and you can get there by walking the plank up towards it. Don't fall through the small hole in front of you! There is only one way into the container but you can get out from the back since there are boxes there that the mutants cant jump onto (unless they boost each other, which is highly unlikely)
Zone 13
1. There is a walkway from one building to another with a bus parked underneath it, jump out the window onto the bus and then run along the edge of the walkway. See if you can find someone to crouch down near the wooden window sticking out, so you can jump on him, then the window, and then onto the roof.
2. Try to get a few people on the roof (3 or 4 preferably). This gives you a HUGE advantage as the mutants can only get onto the roof in single order so it makes it easier to pick them off when there trying to climb up.
3. Don't try to hide in the box pile (the one you crouch to get into), there is literally no escape from here, and even if you manage to hold off the mutants trying to get in at you, there will always be one that will use the mutants jump power to get onto the boxes and come down on top of you.
4. The post is a good place to be, you jump onto it by running along the ledge of the building and positioning your jump to the wider bit. Mutants have only 2 ways to get you from here. Through the window of the building or along the stone wall.
Weapons
Weapon selection is essential to survival! Try and get a weapon which has a good size ammo clip and has a lot of power behind it. I recommend the M60 as its accurate, powerful and has a big ammo clip. If you can, buy a pistol, you will need it when you run out of ammo. I recommend the Desert Eagle simply because it's powerful for a handgun and has a good fire rate.
General Tips
1. Always stay in a group. The more bullets the better.
2. Always reload your gun when you have time.
3. Never throw a smoke grenade into a group of humans!
4. Conserve your ammo!!! Never waste ammo on far away mutants, you will need the bullets later on!
5. Never try to win the round by hiding! There are no "hiding spots" at this stage. Everyone knows the maps pretty well by now.
So thats it! I hope it helps you, even in a small way. Good luck!
