Rushing:
Rushing means when you rush to your destination area. In SF, rushing is mostly used and it's quite popular. Rushing doesnt mean that you go to the enemy and shoot him alone. Make sure that when you close to the area walk silently.Throwing a grenade when your teammate is about to move into that area is the worst thing you can do in rushing. When moving in, check out camping spots where people like to camp.
Firing:
Spraying is a term used when you hold down your left mouse button as it continuosly fire about 10-20bullets per click. This shot allows you put your opponent down very quick when in close combat. Spraying with your M4A1 upclose usually takes about 7-10 bullets to kill an enemy due to the lack of damage but with your fast firing rate you ensure that your opponent die first. When an enemy pops out near about 5 feet spray him with your gun while moving around him (running or jumping).
When an enemy appears about mid-range, use crouch and burst fire him. Crouching allows you to have a firm grip of your gun creating a minimal change on your crosshair and makes you a harder target. Crouch first before you shoot. With crouching on, use burst fire. Bursting is when you trigger your gun and about 3-5 bullets is fired then regain sight then fire again 3-5 bullets. With bursting you will be able to regain your gun crosshair after shooting three shot then fire again. This takes about 1/4 of a second to regain your sight.
Crouch + Fire
- Crouch
- Stop
- Place the center of the crosshair on their chest. (upperbody)
- Fire about 3-5 bullets. Burst
- Regain your sight then fire again or you can move down slowly your sight.
- Do this before you shoot. Firing first before you crouch will just make it worst as you will experience the same crosshair when your standing.
Use burst fire when you are backstabbing an enemy and that you fire an enemy at his body as your recoil will go up and you will possibly get an headshot. Single fire is also useful but do not use often. Only single fire when an enemy is very far. Do not spray an enemy that is far as this is inaccurate and will waste your ammo. Remember to reload once you have low bullets. Reload only when under cover. Once mastered, you will be the ideal assaulter.
Suppressing Fire is one of the most rarely used tactic though. You shoot at an enemy while he is taking cover on a wall, box, crates etc.. while your teammate move in and kill him. Very useful when you have a teammate or two. It keeps your enemy down while your teammate move in.
Single Shot with Rapid clicking or Semi-Auto is also being used in SF. It uses the fast tapping of your left mouse button. Which means you fire fast single shot bullet to the enemy. This is also good as the crosshair will not zoom out. This technique usually is done by veterans as they will rapidly shoot single shot on the enemies head to ensure quick death. Very hard to master though but deadly.
Maps that goes well with M4
Indoor: Hospital, Nerve Gas, Missile and Satellite.
M4A1 greatest advantage. Close quarter combat.Always check the camping spots!
Running Silent
The tactic that is somewhat weird. You try to crouch then run then crouch the run again. This tactic though is hard and can make you slow but if you mastered it, you will be just running silent and become a deadly player.
Outdoor: Train, Desert Camp, Kinabalu, Shanghai and Plasma.
In this maps, you must be taking cover cause here some pro snipers will reign supreme. Activate your 3rd person view to see what is happening. Running and Jumping here is a must. So watch out for those snipers.
