Sometimes when I jump on a server, i suit up and just go after the flag. Many times that I do that, I get owned consecutively in a very embarrasing manor. So my new strategy to find my 'Center' if you will is.. well i warm up with a couple laps! I grab my gear and just start skiing around the map (avoiding confrontation) smoothly transitioning from peak to peak. Then I play a few rounds of light defense, then and only when I feel my mojo is at peak levels, i make grabs!

Anyone else 'Warm-Up' if so, how?

I just usually go at it like you said earlier.  Actually, I usually don't focus a whole lot on capping, but when I do I usually snipe first.  I have no idea why, that is just usually what I do.

Two cans of pop, a large pizza, and some voice spamming.

Dance animation before every map...also wave to or dance with everyone, especially while fighting in midair. Very important to gain maximum mojo. Gotta time it right with your firing delay because you can't shoot while animating.

I usually don't warm up. I get owned the first few times, then, I'm in the game. It's not like anybody is really gonna taunt you unless you're playing competitively (which I don't do).

Usually, you use those first few runs to "assess" the enemy. I usually cloak, so I go to see if they're smart enough to put up motion sensors, use sensor jammers, farm a lot of turrets so if I get caught, will I be ripped to shreds immediately?

If you really need to get warmed up, try to intercept people in the middle of the map. Usually, there will be snipers you can pick fights with and warm up with.

I definitely start rusty then get more in the flow, but what I'm doing to "warmup" remains the same as when I'm actually playing. All I have to do is get my instincts calibrated to the current conditions and I'm ready to go.

Attempt to Shield pack because it requires great timing.
Snipe.

I don't need to warm up, if I'm feeling the groove then I go for it, but if I'm not feeling it, then I farm, or I'll slip into my bastard suit and pester the enemy.
