G3 - Single or Auto

[Liam.]

I've recently got into using the G3, however as we all know it carries a 20 round magazine which is less than other weapons, however it compensates by doing more damage,

So is it better to unload a clip and kill someone or just have a quick finger on single shots?

Re: G3 - Single or Auto

If it's semi then yes, but I assumed it was full-auto. Sorry.

Re: G3 - Single or Auto

it is full isnt it? I usually leave it in auto and just use short bursts...only once in a while do I use it in single shot...if you're careful with the rounds you'll get used to the 20 round clip - it does dish out more damage...

Re: G3 - Single or Auto

Its both... single-shot (semi auto) and full auto. You're right.

Here's how I usually use the G3... If I'm in a busy part of the map I leave it on full auto. Guarding a flag, protecting a chokepoint. If I'm running around a map, I also leave it on full auto.

If I'm in a slightly more remote or out of the way place like the roof of a building away from the action or guarding a long bridge, I'll leave it on semi-auto and treat it like a sniper rifle.

It doesnt take many shots to kill folks, so if your aim is good you can do pretty good up close and personal in semi-auto mode as well. Just dont miss and dont forget that 1 click is 1 bullet.

3 clicks on a persons chest is enough to kill them. I find that I am much more careful when running around with the G3.

G3 is the best rifle in the game - the spray and pray boys don't like it b/c you have ten less rounds to work with.

For short - medium range semi and long single

So semi-auto all the time?

Re: G3 - Single or Auto

I use semi 80% of the time. Only when I'm expecting to see enemies up close and personal, I put it on auto.

Re: G3 - Single or Auto

Only when I am expecting long-range shooting do I put it on single mode.

Spray and pray.

That's gold.

Re: G3 - Single or Auto

depends. you know someone is close, auto, far away single shot.

Re: G3 - Single or Auto

Single shot is definitely the way to go, and count on kills in 5 hits or less.

Re: G3 - Single or Auto

i never fire any gun in full auto mode ('cept support)

Re: G3 - Single or Auto

You've gotta burst at short range or you'll get zapped, I use the weapon all the time so I'm pretty decent at 2 round taps at long range.
