Team Fortress Classic Hints
This area is not secure. Where should I hide?
1 of 6: The civilian must be a good hider. He must run from place to place, ducking in and out of cover and hiding whenever he cannot make it to the next area of cover.
2 of 6: Obviously shadows are a very good place to hide.
3 of 6: Be careful though, since snipers tend to hide in them too.
4 of 6: If you do find a nice shadowed area to hide in, duck while you are sitting there.
5 of 6: Good snipers will often fire quickly into known civilian hiding places. If they see blood, they know you are hiding there. If you have ducked, you have more of a chance of being missed by those stray bullets and you can maintain your secrecy.
6 of 6: Do not hide too long, though. It does not take too much for the snipers to cover nearly every place in the level. Once you have been found, assume that the word has been spread to every sniper present and they are moving in that direction to hunt you down.
