What kind of weapons should I use?

During your gameplay, you will get an opportunity to collect new items almost every step of the way.

The game offers more than 30 weapons divided into several categories, such as Assault Rifles, SMGs, Sniper Rifles, LMGs, as well as melee weapons. Among them, the following weapons deserve a lot of attention:

1. M4A1 - an assault rifle well-known by all fans of the Counter Strike series. It has some of the most balanced stats of all weapons in the game, so it's perfect for combat at any distance.
2. AK - classic Russian rifle deals more damage than the M4A1 described above, but the weapon has a much higher recoil. It is worth to use it, but first you have to learn how to shoot from it.
3. SCAR - a great assault rifle for short and medium distances, but it loses its effectiveness as the distance of the target increases.
4. GROZA - an assault rifle that deals the highest amount of damage in this weapon category. The biggest downside is that it can only be found in an airdrop supply crate - but it is always worth to equip yourself with this powerful weapon.
5. VSS - a combination of a sniper rifle and a machine gun. It doesn't deal as heavy damage as full-fledged sniper rifles, but it's still effective enough to kill an enemy with a few shots. Easy access to ammo is one of its main advantages.
6. M14 - a combination of an assault rifle and a sniper rifle. It deals massive damage over long distances and has a high accuracy, but on the other hand, it has a lower rate of fire. Therefore it is recommended for long-distance combat. A huge advantage is that it uses standard assault rifle ammo that is easy to obtain.
7. KAR98k - a basic sniper rifle, which is quite easy to find. If you want to use it, aim at your opponent's head - a single headshot will kill your enemy. Otherwise, you will have to hit the target 3-5 times to eliminate it, giving the enemy a chance to react.
8. Dragunov - another sniper rifle and one of the best weapons in the game. Dragunov can only be obtained from drop supply crate, but it is worth to get it at all costs - it deals massive damage and has a higher rate of fire than other sniper rifles available in the game.
9. AWM - without a doubt this is the best weapon in the game. The AWM allows player to take out 3/4 of the enemy's health bar with a single shot. If you manage to do a headshot then your enemy will instantly die - even a 3rd level helmet can't protect him/her from this incredible amount of damage. This weapon can only be looted from a airdrop supply crate and it has a very low fire rate. This makes it pretty useless for close-range combat.

Tips

Finally, a set of tips that will make it easier for you to choose the right weapon, namely:

1. Try out all weapons available in the game. You never know what kind of weapon you'll use to kill other players, especially during the first few minutes of the battle - if you get used to a specific type of weapon then it may have a positive impact on your success in the battle.
2. Regardless of your preferences, use weapons that allow you to fight at any distance. Even if you are a natural born sniper and prefer to eliminate enemies from the other end of the map, sooner or later you will be forced to fight at a closer range. So it's worth having a weapon for long and short distance combat - a combination of assault rifle and machine gun or sniper rifle and machine gun / assault rifle is the best choice.
3. Pay attention to weapon mods lying on the ground. Increasing the weapon's magazine, barrel upgrade (which increases the range of the weapon) or the possibility of installing a silencer can significantly increase the effectiveness of the weapon you are currently using. But you don't have to worry about matching modifications - just move over them and they will be collected, as long as you have a weapon suitable to use them.
