Tip 'n' Tricks

[Ainslie]

All the little things that make your day a little more interesting.

For example, one of the few I know is:

Hold shift while in a light vehicle to go faster.

Sorry for the short post, that's all I know.

Here's some things that took me a while to find out about...


You can respawn on another squads rally once if it's near a controlled flag?

You can get a full HAT from a rifleman's ammobag if you haven't reload your gun or wasted a single field dressing?

You need at max 4 field dressings to heal up?

That since you can toss field dressing while moving it's possible to heal on the go?

That knifing a firebase 3 times and then leaving it will make it eventually collapse?

That since building a firebase reduces 10 seconds of your spawn, it's very wise to build one at the start of the game?

That collaborators can repair bridges in 8.0?

8.0 what?

- Repairing a bridge as collaborator from destroyed to usable takes 4 minutes.

- Bridges on Korengal can be repaired with the shovel

- Gates in fences that are covered with wood (like Muttrah docks) can be destroyed with grenades or a shotgun blast.

- If you press the F(default) key on an APC or Truck as driver, you can change the horn into a "reverse beep"

- If you press 9(default) as squad leader, you can deploy faction specific colored smoke. This is ammo linked with the Green smokegrenades

- You can click ->HERE<- for Battle Tips and Tricks written in the guide.

Hey now! That F trick in trucks or APC's isnt used enough! Didnt know that existed and I think a lot of player dont know it exists!

Nice one!

Wow yeah i didn't know either, i'm gonna go try it now. Same with shovel bridge repairs on korengal.

Thanks

-If you have a medic in the vehicle he automatically heals you.
-You can throw mines from vehicles even though your not prone.

If you are a Scoped Rifleman for instance, and you want a medic kit, or SL kit or what ever kit that is requestable on the Enter menu screen, then get "Wounded" so you lay on the ground with the timer ticking, click a kit you want to spawn with, get a medic to revive you after your kit has dissapeared from your body, and voila, you have your selected kit

[Nitneuc]

When wounded, you can only call two times for the medic with left click but unlimited amount of times by right-clicking on give-up, making the medic's job easier.

Or bug the hell out of him

It's actually weapon 1 being the horn, and weapon 2 being the beep. F is the default weapon switch key, if I recall correctly. So, you can use the 1 and 2 keys as well.

You can fire the passenger seat gun in the technicals in single shot mode. (Not sure why you'd want to, but you can) i think it's one of the weapon slots. Had it stuck on single shot once when i got in, it took me forever to figure out what was going on.

Bit of a glitch or bug but handy when you need 2 medics because your under heavy attack!

A squad I was in a few days ago team killed our LAT guy, picked up his kit, waited 15 secs, medic ressed him, voila! New ammo bag for our LAT guy.

Same way if you need an engi for something crucial! Who cares you get set back X points. You can mine this, repair that. Nice trick

Also, i found out that the safest way to fall some distance without hurting yourself is to lie down and put up ironsights, sometimes this saves me from getting damaged in caves on korengal.

I was wondering how exactly to use the gabbling hook. I mean, I chuck it onto a building, and that works, but how do I climb up it? Thanks.

press E to enter it, press G (default) to retrieve it. Right clicking while aiming for the edge it will drop it down, so you can climb off the building.

Thanks a lot man, it worked perfectly!!!
Thanks again.
