Some help?

Try Combat or co_ maps to practice aiming,moving,circle strafing, learn the weapons and general egoïsm ...I mean soloing.
-Natural Selection Classic or or ns_ maps are the most fun to play if:
*the teams are equal in skill
*both teams keep up attacking/pressuring the other team
*players play seriously and don't whine or hack (though I have not seen this ever)
-Try this excellent Natural Selection guide to find out a lot of things.
<a href='http://manual.nsguides.org/' target='_blank'>http://manual.nsguides.org/</a>
-To try out a lot just for yourself without bothering other people,

Create a server in a certain ns_ map, for example ns_eclipse,
hit the console key ~ , press e (or the console will disappear after you type anything) and type sv_cheats 1.

Now the game will start even if there are no players on the other team.
type bigdig to speed up building, type givepoints for more resources.

Now, try building every building there is, on both Marine and Kharaa side, try all weapons, try all upgrades, if you do this, you will at least know what and where everything is.

Try the Whichbot bots for NS/CO, those are excellent (Kharaa-only) bots.

After that, find a pub in you country or near your country to get the least lag (if they have a good connection) and to be sure communication goes with the least problems.

A headset is recommended for NS, nothing easier than shou...speaking instead of endless slow typing and getting killed. Just a not too cheap stereo headset with a microphone will do.

Normally, you can only see the location where you are on your hud, not on your minimap, get the labeled minimaps
