Help a pathetic player

[Chewy]

Ok guys, I love playing PT on XBConnect, but wow do I ever suck. Do you guys know of any websites that have any info on getting better? I have spent some time looking around the maps, but there is nothing like actually playing to show you how little you actually know. I am in the process of getting someone to buy me a mike, so I can start communicating with my team mate, it is hard to find a mike for sale without the Live kit attached. If you don't know websites, I need some info/hints on getting better. I am much better at the Merc than the Spy, but I switch up on a regular basis to let the other people I am playing with get time on both sides.

So basically, HELP!!!

I'll give you and adapter if you want to pay shipping. After that, most cel mikes will do. Didn't realize you could use them on XBC. PM me if you want it. I think I have 3 at this point, so I certainly wouldn't miss one.

IGN has a decent multi-player guide, but really it's all about practice. Learn where all detecting devices are, figure out how to choke, and use the explore map option to get your layouts down.

'Explore Map' option? Sweet, didn't even see that.

Yea, before you sign into xbox live, stay on the menu with "XBL", "Sys. Link", etc. There should be an "explore map" option, or "tutorials", or something like that.

Thanks for the info guys. If you want a nice easy kill just get on XBC when I am playing and kick my ass.

I have some type of mental block when it comes to the Xbox controller and first person shooter type games. I spaz out like Atkins dieter at a pasta bar. I just need more practice.

Duke, thanks a lot for the offer of the connector man. I will get ahold of you for sure. I can only hope that being able to communicate with people will help my game.

You really dont talk much in that game cuz u can use a spy bullet or spy trap i think they are called and u can hear the other team.

I would like to somewhat correct myself that u actually do communicate with them, just not as often as in some other games, but thats just when u see someone and i am not that good yet so i usually dont see anyone.
