Semi- vs Full- Auto Infantry

Recommended Posts

In Arma 3, I find myself being an absolute bullet guzzler. When using a fully automatic weapon in ranges of less than ~250m, I just aim down sights and spray in the general direction of the enemy. During a mission, I often run through 650 rounds of LMG ammo when only getting 25 or 30 kills.

I mainly do this to compensate for the breath/stamina system and the deadly accurate AI. I essentially try to engage the enemy with suppressive fire long before they have a chance to shoot back.

How do you guys handle regular infantry combat?

Is what I'm doing - realistic or practical?

Sneak and peek. Shoot and scoot. (not even anywhere near the same as run-n-gun) Even when running an LMG it's best to fire before they see you and then if possible, exit the area. Crouch and burst with the LMG's works pretty well..prone even better. At least that's what works for me.

Machine gun fire should be done in burst, 5 ends machine gun is also more of an area fire weapon.

There should be or you should be controlling your teams fire dispersion. Tl leader or squad leader needs to give fire commands.

Your movement should be based around 3 second rushes if engaged.
