Support Class: Suppression
This is NOT a guide for experienced support players.
I find it best to try these ideas when using support.
1) Single-minded : Don't pursue your enemy(s), wait for them to come to you. Play defense of flags and your squads flanks. I found it best when my squad is capping a flag to lay in an alley where there would be high traffic. Let your teamates shoot first and spot enemies for them. When the enemy is taking fire from your team open up on them, you'll most likey take them from supprise.
2) Aim Low : I use the PKM mostly. I found it best to aim for the abdomin at longer ranges, due to large "cone of fire". This also works great agaisnt hoppers. Close up you have aim more accurately.
3) Rate of Fire : Watch to make sure your gun isn't going to overheat. Tap the button to release bursts and give time to cool your weapon
4) Suppresion : Keep constant fire on your enemy(s). I like the wall of fire technique, most people run or dive out of it. Keep that fire on them even if they are hidden. This gives time for your team to move in and/or flank.
5) Ammo : DO NOT throw ammo on the ground for yourself, it gives away your location. Hold the bag. A trick I read that works. Throw some ammo where you are covering. Some people are desperate enough to pick it up, easy targets for you.
6) Reloading : Reload when you have time or have to. Reloading support weapons takes forever, so pick your times wisely.
7) Grenades : Unlimited!! Keep those grenades on the enemy.
8) Moving : Its time to get familar with your pistol. It is weak, but more accurate than your Light Machinegun. Evade as much as you can, throw grenades to clear your way. When in a jam, crouch and use your Light Machinegun (stay still when firing).
That is all I have for now!! Godspeed Support players!!
