Close Quarters Combat: CQC maps are relatively small and focus on mission objectives and face-to-face combat. For mission-based maps, you will only spawn once per scenario. However, there are other modes (such as FFA) in which you will spawn at regular intervals.
Urban Ops: These maps range from medium-sized to large, and may feature some vehicles. The objective of these maps is to reduce the opposing team’s score (displayed at the top of the screen) to zero by taking their flags and eliminating their presence.
Battle Group: BG maps are the largest in the game, and feature vehicles you won’t see in any other maps. Like Urban Ops, your goal is to reduce the opposing team’s score to zero.

- FFA – Free For All pits all players against each other in a no-holds-barred deathmatch! The first player to reach the kill limit wins the game.
- Death Match – The object of DeathMatch is to reduce the opposing team’s score to 0 by eliminating their troops and capturing flags.
- Conquest – Both teams start with 999 points. Capturing flags is critical in this mode, as the team with fewer flags will see their points trickle away.
Mode Options
- Game Length – This may change depending on Mode, and determines when the game ends.
- Game Rounds refer to how many rounds a team must win to end an Explosive game.
- Target Kill Points in Deathmatch is how many points each team will start with. In FFA, this is how many kills a player must reach in order to end the game.

Spawn Window
This window will appear at the start of each map, and will re-appear when you are killed (this is not available in CQC). The Squad System is a feature in planning and is not yet implemented.

Team
This area will tell you how many players your team has in each branch of service.
User Interface
Crosshairs
This is where you are currently aiming. Depending on your weapon and rate of movement, it may shift or change in size and shape; the tighter the crosshairs, the more accurate your shot. If you are using a sniper rifle and are not scoped, you will not have a crosshair.
Personal HUD
This displays info about your character. The image at the left displays your current position (standing, crouching, or prone). From top to bottom, the information is:
- Branch of Service
- Weapon
- Ammunition (rounds left / remaining clips)
- HP: Hit Points. This bar represents your soldier’s health, and will drop as he or she is hurt. When this bar is depleted, your character will die and you must wait to respawn.
- Bleeding out: If you are hit and begin to hear a heartbeat, your soldier is bleeding out! Your HP will continue to gradually decrease until you are healed by a Medic or killed.
- SP: Stamina Points. Stamina represents your soldier’s energy, and is used for certain actions (such as sprinting and jumping) and will automatically refill over time.
Radar
The radar will display your current position on the map. Enemy gunfire will appear as red circles and will help direct you to firefights.
Team Scores
This display will change depending on game mode.
- Explosive: The dots represent how many rounds are won (white) and how many are left (gray) for each team to end the game.
- FFA: “1st” is the score of the player currently in the lead; “You” is your score. “Mission” is the number of kills a player must reach in order to end the game.
- Deathmatch & Conquest: The scores represent how many points each team has remaining.
Vehicle HUD
Depending on your position in the vehicle, not all weapons may be available to you. Some vehicles do not have weapons.
Main and Sub ammunition (when applicable), as well as CT (Core Temperature). When the CT gets too high, the weapon will be unusable until it cools. Player positions in the vehicle. To change positions, press the number key on your keyboard that corresponds to the position you wish to take. Vehicle HP. This represents your vehicle’s condition, and will decrease as it takes damage. As the bar is depleted, the vehicle will begin to emit visual and audio warnings. When the bar is completely empty, the vehicle will explode. Base Assets
Base assets can be used to heal your soldier, repair vehicles, and stock ammo. They are marked on your map with the following icons:
- Medic Boxes restore a set amount of soldier HP per use.
- Ammo Boxes will restock and reload all of your weapons (except special weapons such as grenades or mines) with each use.
- Ammo Bases will completely restock your vehicle’s ammunition (if any).
- Repair Bases will repair a set amount of vehicle HP per use.
To use base assets, simply remain near them. A counter ( ) will appear under the team scores; once it reaches 100%, the asset will be applied. Healing and repairs heal a set percentage of HP per use, and may be reused as many times as necessary. “Ammo Base” and “Repair Base” refer to assets for vehicles.
Objectives
Depending on the gameplay mode, your objective will vary. Most Close Quarters Combat objectives will require you to accomplish a task (such as locating and destroying or defending a target).
When you are close enough to a target objective, you will be prompted to press and hold “F” (the Action key) to begin your task. A progress bar () will appear to show you your progress. If you let go of the F key, you will stop your action and will have to start over.
If you are on the bombing team, a timer will appear and begin to count down once you have successfully planted the bomb. You must then guard the bomb until the timer reaches zero and the bomb detonates.
If you are on the defending team, you must attempt to eliminate all of the enemy soldiers before they can plant the bomb. If the bomb is planted, your objective is to locate the bomb and then defuse it (again, using the “F” key) before the timer runs out and the bomb detonates!
On some maps, your objective will be to capture and defend territory flags. To capture a flag, stand near it and a counter ( ) will appear under the team scores. When it reaches 100%, it will either turn white (Neutral) if it was held by the enemy, or change to your colors if it was Neutral. Once you have captured a flag, your team may use it as a spawn point until the other team takes control of it.
Alternate Fire
Scopes
Some weapons (such as sniper rifles) have the ability to Scope (zoom in) by using Alt Fire.
Full Auto (Glock)
The Glock can be fired in full auto mode by holding down the right mouse key.
Missile Lock
Some weapons and vehicles have the ability to missile lock. To lock on to a target, keep your targeting reticle over it and hold the Shift key. A green square and Targeting bar will appear over the target while you lock on. When you have finished locking on, the bar will turn red and the text will change to Lock On. Your missiles will now track your target until you lose missile lock.
You will lose missile lock if you let go of Shift or the target leaves your line of sight.
For aerial vehicles, you will need to be in first person view. In the Avenger, you will need to be in 3rd person view while in the gunner’s seat. For Heavy Weapons (such as the Stinger), you must be scoped (alt fire).
Thats All BASIC TRANING!
