Using the TL

[legacy-thunder_khan]

Hey guys,

I was reading some of the posts here, and just a recent one about the TL device...to travel faster...

IU've seen it happen all the time when i'm in the areanas with other guys playing Bombing RUn, CTF...etc...

BUT...I can't seem to use the function correctly? Am I doing something wrong?

I activate the TL gun...and use my PRIMARY FIRE to release the receiver....but how do I actually ZIP OVER to the receiver I just threw?

your help would be amazingly helpful lol

thanks in advance

Primary Fire: shoots beacon

Secondary Fire: teleport to beacon

alt fire...

if you destoy enemy beacons they will get killed when they use it and you will get the kill.

and in some maps i can be usefull to take a shortcut (CTF-Chrome) or to go to scret chambers (BR-Skyline)

you can also use the beacon as a spy cam. by pressing the key for the TL. standard set to q. (eg. press q to select fire and press q to see trough the cam. by carefull as you can't defend yourself)

I've never gotten the spycam to work properly in the sense that it doesnt show players.
Ex. in CTF-citadel, I peeked down the hole to the flag, and I saw a player standing on top of the flag stand.
I drop a transloc down, and I could see the flagstand but not the player. I peek down with "my own eyes" and there he is again.

When I think about it, I dont think I've ever seen another player through my camera.

no, the spy camera does work, although it is very awkward. But it can be useful at times

I think it depends on your detail settings.
