Well, I would like to share some advice when you fight a high "pinger". That means his ping is so big that when ever you try to hit him, it doesn't work. You see him in front of you but he is not really there.
Best set-up against high pinger: Bot: Wrecker or Bite Front Weapon: Ram or hammer. Turret Weapon: Chaingun, Flamethrower, Mines or Mortar. Back Weapon: Whiplash or Fender Bombs. Defensive Weapon: Cutter
Let's start with the basic. If you are playing someone who laggs hard like AG, you will never want to try to attack him/her just before a corner. Why? Because since he/she is lagging, you see him/her in front of you but he/she it already behind the corner. If you attack, it won't deal any damage and you will lose you ammo. (You can always to attac with front and defensive weapon though)
The second thing you want to know is when to attack if the lagger is also a runner. You can attack when ever you want as long as you are sure to hit. Most of the time, I recommand to follow the runner and press left then right repeatedly to be faster and then try to get next to him. Whenever you are next to someone, you can attack him with your ram. If you are using an hammer, you could always do the same thing but using your defensive weapon.
How do I know when t shoot while using mortar? Well if the lagger is running, you need to find the right timing. There is no secret. You'll probably have to fire 2-23x faster then you would with a normal opponent.
What do I do if I'm using mortar and the runner is rushing me? Well, this wil be close combat to death. If you don't have the advantage, you better run and try to trap him using X-Ray+Mortar. Pre-fire the corner he is about to turn to deal alot of damage.
What do I do if I am using mines and I don't have anymore ammo? Well, close combat is always the best option. If you can move properly, you will win. One trick if you are using Ram or Hammer is to go backward, attack with front weapon when he get close to you and turn. (Keep de down arrow pressed while doing this)(Attack and turn about 0.5 sec after) This will hit him but he will not be able to touch you.
If you have any question about how to defeat high pingers/laggers just come on the chat and ask for some tips
If facing a runner I find it very rewarding to chase them into one of the outreaches with no walls to protect them. They usually go here to get ammo, health, or money while running from you. Well... if you can time it right, you can run right into them and push them straight off the edge with the help of lag. I find this to be the only fun thing about RR3 and whenever I have the chance I do it.

even when you reverse, go left to right to go faster
learn to use defence weapon to push people off the edge
always use the front weapon
when using mortar against runner put yourself in a position so you know which way they are going so you can wait to blast them
dont spend gold on things that can be bought by cash

It is one thing this quazar jump is a total fantasy weapon that even peter pan himself would have frowned upon but it is not restricted to jumping, they jump and at the same time hit you with something and large chunks of armor are gone, it doesn't seem very fair. Fairy .. but not fair

but what you do is go to the edge of the rooftop so your bot tilts up and aim at the top(you cant see the mark) and keep spamming the X button till you are on the roof

No worries, I tried once now, big fail, I fell off, the green mark was no where near the wall. Did you say you can't see the mark ?
