*To get an unprecedented Sniping spot, use the same trick with the Plasma Batteries, but this time jump on top of them. At the apex of the jump, shoot the Plasma Battery.

* When playing Team SWAT, when you spawn at elbow don't move and look towards Blue Lift (Lift that goes to Sniper Tower). Usually your opponents will go there, allowing kills in the very beginning of the game. This goes vise versa- if you spawn at blue side then just look towards elbow. | * When playing Team SWAT, when you spawn at elbow don't move and look towards Blue Lift (Lift that goes to Sniper Tower).

*If you start at [[Overshield]], grab the Carbine and Shield and head up the elbow to the Fusion Core and Plasma Grenades. Throw a frag at the core, turn around, and jump. Since you have overshields, the blast will not kill you, and if done right you can land on the odd shaped thing that juts out from the Yellow lift building.

Since you have overshields, the blast will not kill you, and if done right you can land on the odd shaped thing that juts out from the Yellow lift building. This can be done in about 10 seconds, and it offers a 180-degree view of the centre area and doors. If you crouch, you can maintain this area until your ammo runs out, often with the opposite team trying to figure out how they are dying. | ||
