Q2DM7 - Slimy Place Deathmatch 
This is a map that some people really hate but I've always found it to be one of my best maps, and one that I could be highly competitive on when I played on a modem. The map is plagued by camping but as long as you know this you can cope and target the campers themselves. In the first pic you can see the rocket launcher and grenade launcher room. Whenever I go past I always press the switch so the RL is in the slime. This slows other players down. When playing FFA you should always be greedy and try to deny people items even if you don't need them. In the long run of a full game this yields good results. There is almost always a camper up at the grenade launcher so a couple of rocket volleys fired up there is always a good idea. Suffering from spam attacks when down below can be quite frustrating but if you're desperate for frags towards the end then I'd certainly recommend heading up there and firing some off yourself. Just don't stay there for ever. If you've missed the lower rocket launcher then head for the top rocket launcher. This weapon is definitely the best on the map. As you jump down check to the right in case the rockets pack has spawned because this is the only source on the map. 
The red armour is easy to get hold of and vital to wear really when you consider there are two rocket launchers and a grenade launcher! That's a lot of explosions and red armour is the best defence. As you pick it up be very cautious of GL spam coming at you at you go round the corner. If there's too much spam then sod it and head back up the steps and cut along to the hyperblaster. Remember that you can strafe jump straight from the top balcony straight onto the hyperblaster itself. There's no need to drop down and walk. When I get the hyperblaster I tend to head for the main corridor and let it all off down there because it's such a narrow corridor and you always get frags. When you're in the hyperblaster room remember you can jump down the pipe to the super shotgun if you come under fire. It's a handy escape. I pick up the super shotgun then move back to catch out my pursuer usually. 
The map is plagued in part by two of the worst camping spots in the whole game. There's the super shotgun spot in the sewer where players jump spawn camp the respawn and then there's the top rocket launcher corridor. A lot of campers just get the RL and repeatedly fire it at the spawn point. One thing to bear in mind when you get spawn fragged is not to click fire straight away. Through some bug you will respawn at the same point if you're too eager and this is how you end up being spawn fragged up to three times on the run! Just pause for a second, press fire and respawn somewhere else and then head there with a vengeance :). Teamplay This map is not played in any league.
