Tips on Ganz

Re: Tips on Ganz

He probably knows where enemies are based on UAV/IDS/HeartBeat Info, so I think he kills people in closer range fights and probably uses corners to his advantage.

Exactly what I do
In close range fights cicrle around the person don't stand still

I picture him knowing where enemies are or may be, running up to a corner, peeking out in close range, crouching stationary, firing "from the hip" while still crouching and moving on or double-backing to get extra kills from possible revives.

Re: Tips on Ganz

I get half my kills doing this
Am I the only one that uses the ganz as an assualt type rather than a defender or sniper

dude, spraying with the ganz, while running? you will get owned by assualts, or even a lambert easily :|:

Re: Tips on Ganz

Lol ganz is a great gun, and can be used however. If you run and gun, you have to get close to your enemy and crouch, don't zoom, zoom and you get owned by that guy with his krylov. Just today I ran around the corner on shingle and met 6 TG members capping my flag, killed all 6 and lost about 89% of my health...but I still got all 6. :p

It just takes practice to use. It's like a rapid fire sniper rifle if you know how to use it. :shock:

Re: Tips on Ganz

The game rewards you when impatient people walk into your supressive fire.

Re: Tips on Ganz

Yeah, but if you equip the Steady Aim perk, you'll shrink that reticle by half. :shock:

hehehe

But what about the reticle, wont that go huge if you play it like assualt?

Re: Tips on Ganz

Exactly right. I have only about 11% accuracy but keep a decent 12 K/D ratio with Ganz, which is quite useful if you play Titan or "narrow" field areas (bottlenecks) and still being able to supply teammates with ammo on-spot. It is sad that no FPS has a good system for rewarding players for suppressive and cover fire tactics.

well how are they supposed to give you an award for suppresive fire? what, you fire like over a million rounds with the gun and the game just like assumes youve been doing some suppresive fire? I really dont see how they can make an award for somethin like that.

Re: Tips on Ganz

I personally think all the weapons, and especially the Ganz, work better when you have people in front of you already....
Don't listen to all this endorsement of accuracy as a medal as a machinegunner, look to your Kill to Death Ratio as a mark of your usefulness. But if you can get both, more power to you!

Re: Tips on Ganz

Do not charge with the ganz, its useless firing against an assault weapon or the like while you are running

Re: Tips on Ganz

I personally think all the weapons, and especially the Ganz, work better when you have people in front of you already. Teammates of course, and when you have a decent vantage point with cover (You want to be covered in places where enemies could attack you from directions you aren't looking!) so that you can fire around or over your teammates while they directly keep the enemy occupied. Alternatively, you want areas that're essentially bottlenecks that you can continuously pepper with single or two-shot bursts until rapidly bursting enemies that actually enter the airspace you're filling with lead! (Shoot areas you expect enemies to appear. Even if none are present)

Example: The Western side of Gibraltar's entrance to Toll Station. For some reasonnnn or anotherrrr.. People clump up there and suffer through each one of the Commander's artillery and expectant machinegunners who are looking down that 'hallway' for a charge and usually knocking down everyone who enters so long as they don't have to reload.

Don't listen to all this endorsement of accuracy as a medal as a machinegunner, look to your Kill to Death Ratio as a mark of your usefulness. But if you can get both, more power to you!

Re: Tips on Ganz

i had the worst day i have ever had on the ganz on my secondary account :|:
10 kills, 12% accuracy, 20 deaths?? and 1.1kill/min
:shakehead:
so to add more tips, these should be obvious, but yes:

Do not keep on going to the same place over and over again, especially if you are simply going after 1 camper/sniper/person

Make sure you know which team is which

Make sure you fire at people

Do not charge with the ganz, its useless firing against an assault weapon or the like while you are running

Don't run around in the open

Don't stand in the open

and concentrate :thumbsup:

Re: Tips on Ganz

not for mg's tho, rite?

Re: Tips on Ganz

yes but it shows the accuracy stats are skewed, that was my point.
