Are you kidding?
1. You can hide on the edge (nobody looks there)
2. You can hide behind the goalposts (well, maybe)
3. You can hide in the corners, crouched down.
Basically, the one who moves sets himself up for the one who crouches and 
waits...  Moving targets are MUCH easier to pick out from a distance.
What I like doing is, if someone hits me with a Shrinker, crouch down beside 
an item; it's really hard to find you there...  Especially if they don't know 
exactly when/where they hit you (like, from a distance).
And yes, the air is a good place to hide, especially right beside the blimp 
(if nobody's shot it).
On the other hand, if the other player has an RPG... *RUN* until he runs out 
of ammo.  (Just for effect, I painted a happy face on the front of my RPG 
missiles; makes for one last laugh just before impact... )
Though I must admit that my experience is only with 2 players at a time... I 
would *LOVE* to play it over the Internet...
I have a PPP connect to the Internet... Can someone tell me how to use it to 
play Duke on the Net?  I can't get the TenNet thing to work...
