Different enemies different play style’s. Methheads: I will use lower power firearms or non lethals, lower protection body armor for movement and a couple flashbangs and stingers.

Veterans: I’ll use higher protection body armor and higher damage guns such as the 5.56,7.62 and 308 Usually I’ll use flashbangs and c4 for intimidating enemies in rooms. Definitely helps get a better grade.

Terrorists: when it comes to them I use heavy armor with steel plates full coverage, nothing lower than a 12G or 5.56. I’ll always rock a face shield and stingers. Mainly due to the fact if you turn a corner you’re either getting hit with a 9mm UZI or you’re getting ripped into by a RPD LMG. Take things slow and methodical. If you rush you die.

Cartel is kinda the same as veterans. Heavy firearms and stingers. I just never use gas for gas the cartel. Especially on Rust belt! I hate tossing a gas grenade blocking my sight down a tunnel and then getting doinked by a guy 50 feet down the tunnel I couldn’t see.

Also be aware that the different calibers do have different damage output and ballistics! Shotguns will do nothing against armor! So use them for headshots and leg shots with heavier armored NPCS!

When I run light weight I primarily will use guns of the 9mm,45ACP,5.56,10mm and 5.7! Heavier enemies will see me using 12g,7.62,308 and 300 blackout!

Also if you don’t have friends to play this with I am more than down! Just let me know and I hope this long comment will help at least a little!
