Azba 0 Posted June 16, 2012 The "." and "," buttons cycle through which channel your chat is displayed on. You'll want to use Side Channel in-game, as it stands out in a nice blue colour rather than Global which appears in white and gets ignored due to looking a lot like the server info messages.

Jameson1971 0 Posted June 17, 2012 When you are close to, and facing a ladder, a little green arrow pointing up will appear. I believe the default commands for climbing the ladder (when you get the arrow) are the "Enter" key, or clicking (not scrolling) your middle mouse button. Once you grab onto the ladder, simply move forward ("W" by default) to climb up. There is also another trick since you sometimes fall down the ladder (and often break your legs) when trying to move forward after getting to the top. As soon as you get to the top of the ladder, instead of moving forward immediately, crouch before you move. This usually solves the problem of "glitching" off of the ladder and falling.When trying to go down the ladder, you grab it the same way as going up. Turn until you get the green arrow, then press either "Enter" or the middle mouse button to grab it, but instead of pressing "W", press "S" to climb down once you've grabbed it. If there is still gear at the top of the ladder, you might have trouble getting the green arrow to appear. Just move a little bit and turn yourself until you get the green arrow. You might actually have to face away from or to the side of the ladder to get the green arrow to show up. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
