Combat Arms Guide To Saving Your GP

January 21st, 2012 | Posted by admin in Guides - (0 Comments)

If you are having trouble getting more GP after buying items, then this guide will surely help. This guide is mainly for those who play for free, and don’t use NX.

Let’s begin!

Use Your Default Weapon

When you have absolutely no GP, the M16 is your friend. True, it is not as great as many other weapons (okay, every other weapon), but when you don’t have a choice, needs must! With practice, you can actually become quite proficient at it.

It is still a good idea to keep the M16 with you at all times, just as a backup. Even if you have a better weapon, you may run out of bullets so having the default gun with you is smart.

Don’t Leave Games Early

Leaving in them middle of a game does not earn you any GP, so just stick it out til the end. Even if you are getting your butt kicked, man up, and think of better strategies. Keep away from direct combat and instead try and trick them by watching your opponent’s habits. Most people tend to get cocky when they are winning, so use this element of surprise.

Choose Your Games Carefully

Pick games that finish quickly and provide lots of experience. You can join mid-game to make it easier to finish. Avoid Capture The Flag in large areas and Desert Thunder Fireteam. Capture The Flag is best in small areas like Junk Flea and Death Room.

Also if you are willing, play Quarantine Regen as either a human or zombie to get fast experience. Don’t use your GP while playing, but instead work in teams to complete your objectives.

Don’t Waste GP On Luxuries

Sure, luxuries are great and fun, but saving GP and buying luxuries do not go hand-in-hand. Luxuries include such things as camos, head gear, silencers, face gear, sidearms, multiple weapons etc.

Choose Specific Servers

Some servers give more GP and EXP than other servers. We recommend you try Echo, or if you are a higher level, Delta server.

The Golden Strategy

This is the golden strategy of saving money. This is for people who have a regular playing schedule, and buy weapons for 1 day. Make a schedule for 2 days, and start playing later on the first day than the second day.

Say if you play for 2 hours a day, and you usually play at around 8 PM, then for the first day of your schedule, start at 9 PM and buy the weapons and gears you want. On the next day you start at 7 PM, and play until your weapons expires. This way you are using weapons for 2 days at the price of 1 day. It is the most efficient strategy of gaining money, and your GP will boom up sky high real fast.

A Beginner’s Guide to Combat Arms

January 21st, 2012 | Posted by admin in Guides - (0 Comments)

Intro to Combat Arms

When you first start Combat Arms, it may be a little intimidating. This quick guide will help you to get started, and give a brief run-down of what to expect.

First and foremost, make sure you have:

  • Downloaded the game.
  • Understand that you are new, and to take it easy at first. Don’t go in guns blazing and peeve people off.
  • Now get pumped, and play the game!

Where To Start Playing Combat Arms

Stick to the servers that are for newbies (you). The reason you want to start on a newbie server such as Jackson, is because they are rank capped to Private, so you won’t have to go up against higher level players like Captains. Don’t worry, you will have a chance to fight and destroy them later.

What To Play

It is best to play Elimination before trying out more tactical objectives like Capture the Flag. This is because you will have unlimited respawns so you can get used to the game.

Go with the smaller maps like Junk Flea, Death Room, and Cold Seed.

Which Weaponry To Use

Primary Weapon

The default weapon you are given is an M16A3 assault rifle. It does the job, goes “bang bang”, but is obviously not the most powerful weapon in the game. Get accustomed to using this weapon, because once you are good at it, pretty much every other weapon in the game will be easy for you to master. The M16 is also one of the best guns for headshots. Everybody loves a headshot.

Be sure to try out other types of weapons, like various assault rifles. You will be using them for a lot of the game, so get used to them. We recommend these assault rifles: M4A1, K2, MK-16 SCAR-L.

Submachine guns are great for close quarter combat work. We recommend these submachine guns: MP5A4, UMP, K1A, K7.

Sniper rifles are much harder to master as there are many things to consider when sniping from a far distance. Practice makes perfect though.

Secondary Weapons

Your sidearm will be rarely used, so no need to get anything too extravagant. Just stay with the M92FS. If you must have a better pistol though (just to look cooler), then try the USP, the G23, or the M1911 MEU.

Melee Weapons

A nice big knife is always handy to have. Keep it sharp, fellas.
