1. Acquiring Weapons and Weapon Inspection
Procuring a diverse range of weapons, such as primary firearms, auxiliary rifles, and explosive devices, and conducting thorough inspections before engaging in battle is a common practice among seasoned players. Depending on the circumstances, these weapons will be used seamlessly, so meticulous preparation is essential before confronting the enemy.
2. Steer Clear of Snipers
Snipers play a pivotal role in the team composition, strategically positioning themselves, appearing suddenly, and providing cover fire for teammates during assaults. The weapon of choice for Snipers in Half Life is the sniper rifle. Whether you assume the role of a Sniper or not, it's advisable to keep a safe distance from these members if you wish to avoid stray bullets.
3. Offensive Tactics as a Tanker
If your mission designates you as a Tanker, boldly launch attacks using a shotgun like the 21 or 22 in Half Life. Your teammates are always there to provide support from behind. Snipers with precision rifles will assist you in closing in on the enemy.
Embracing the role of a Tanker requires accepting the possibility of sacrifice at any moment, even if it's just within the first 30 seconds of the match. Therefore, the Tanker's objective is to eliminate and inflict as much damage to the enemy's health as possible.
4. Monitor the Radar and Listen for Sounds
Observing the Radar is a skill often employed by seasoned Half Life players. Before using grenades or other skills, pay attention to the Radar to avoid accidentally hitting your teammates.
Be attentive to sounds—footsteps, gunfire, exploding mines—to gauge the distance of approaching enemies. While moving, minimize running to avoid making noise. When approaching suspicious targets, crouch or move slowly to reduce the risk of detection.
5. Always aim at suspicious locations.
Avoid aiming your crosshair at vacant areas like walls or places without enemies. Position your crosshair near potential hiding spots at a distance equivalent to two people, enabling you to quickly shoot when enemies appear. Aimlessly pointing your gun is a limitation that many players encounter, leading to being caught off guard when enemies emerge.
The above are the masterstrokes in Half Life that, when executed seamlessly, become truly perilous.
On mobile devices today, there are also other games carrying the style of Half Life, such as Legendary Campaign. Published by Garena, this game attracts a large player base. The levels and weapons in the Legendary Campaign are also remarkably diverse.
In the Legendary Campaign, players also take on the role of a Sniper, much like in Half Life. The sniper rifles in the Legendary Campaign also pack formidable firepower. Knowing how to use sniper rifles in the Legendary Campaign will genuinely make your enemies wary. However, in the mobile game, aiming down sights while moving can be challenging, requiring your gunplay skills to be truly exceptional.
