Prima Official Guide[]
"This small but dangerous map will have you looking over your shoulder in your living room and shouting out in your dreams about being chased by guys with rocket launchers. Weapons are plentiful, but power-ups are another story. Even if you were to control one or more of the power-ups, the danger outweighs the value.
This map requires you to be reasonably skilled at every weapon. Depending on the number of players, you may get only one or two weapons before you find yourself face to face with an enemy toting heavier firepower.
Deathmatch Strategy
The winner is often the player adept at a variety of weapons. Curse 3 is the perfect map for the shock rifle’s devastating shock combo. Fire your secondary, a glowing energy ball, and then hit the ball with your primary laser. The massive blast clears out lethal corners of this map before you reach them.
This skill is difficult to master, but the best players swear that the combo makes the shock rifle the most valuable weapon of all.
Learn how to use the flak cannon and rocket launcher indoors. If you fire like a crazy man, you end up hurting yourself more than the enemy. If you’re patient and careful, you emerge not only unscathed but a feared threat.
Survival Strategy
You can start trying to control the power-ups in one-on-one games. Even in Survival mode, however, your enemy has a ton of weapons to choose from and can take you down no matter how many powerups you control. Grab the super shield pack first, if possible. It helps you survive long enough to grab others.
Once you’ve picked up the lower-level power-ups, try to stay up high as long as possible to watch for your enemy. If you can spot your foe from above, you can jump down and end the contest before your enemy knows you’re there.
Team Deathmatch Strategy
A good team can control all the important power-ups in this map without sacrificing kills. The key is for the entire team to keep moving, even if it’s just a short pattern around the power-up, grabbing ammo and health when necessary. If you stop on this map, you might as well concede.
Single-Player Strategy
Keep moving and shooting. The bots on this level are notorious for shooting you from unexpected angles. Don’t give them an easy shot. Devise a path that lets you pick up the shield and double damage power-ups just as they respawn. The bots aren’t quite as calculated.
Don’t be embarrassed to take cover if you are outgunned. More often than not, you stumble over a better weapon and make your opponent pay for not finishing you off quickly.
Sniping Spot
The two key sniping spots on this small map are handy, albeit not as useful as sniping spots on other maps. Stand in front of the super shield pack hiding place. You’re spotted and occasionally hit from below, but if you’re lucky, you get in a few great kills at the expense of oblivious elevator riders.
Or, after you grab the lighting gun, look for a small passage directly beside the spawning point. This will take you to a small catwalk overlooking an oft-used corner of this map. Put your back in the corner of the two nearby walls and start taking out your unaware enemies from above.
Kill Zone
This map is good for kill zones, but the standout area is the catwalk leading to the secret super shield. From this vantage point, you can attack heavy traffic up top and jump down to assault opponents below. Either way, you're in the"
