aside the loot thief in the beginning

Playing squad-based shooters requires not just individual skills but also seamless teamwork and strategy. From my own experience, always prioritize reviving your teammates promptly as it keeps your team strong and balanced during intense firefights. Utilizing airstrike markers like Cluster Strike or Napalm Strike wisely can turn the tide of battle — I found marking enemies before calling in strikes ensures maximum enemy damage. Inventory management is crucial; carrying the right balance of Armor Plates, Concussion Grenades, and versatile weapons like the MK.78 or S4780 sniper provides flexibility. Personally, I keep at least five Armor Plates and a variety of ammo to adapt to any fight. The next bonus meter, often at 60%, is a helpful indicator to push for bigger rewards and enhance your loadout drop chances. Communication is key—pinging enemy locations or safe zones keeps everyone informed, helping avoid ambushes. Remember, causing a ruckus early in the game by aggressively engaging enemies can disrupt their plans, but be sure to back it up with solid positioning and cover. Combining these strategies will help you secure more loot effectively and lead your team to victory.
