Classes

Players can select their class before the game starts. Each class unlocks differently and has their own set of unique traits and abilities. Each class is tactically balanced as different classes tend to excel in different game modes.


Assaulter
Class Ability: Grenade Launcher
Grenade Type: Frag

Assaulters are medium speed operators who holds a secondary grenade launcher. He excels in raking multiple kills if the enemies are clustered together. Grenade launchers can be fitted to the player's weapon or can be used as a stand alone weapon. Using a grenade launcher attachment however will lower your mobility while you have your primary weapon equipped. You'll have access to assault rifles and battle rifles.

Demolition
Class Ability: Ballistic Armor
Grenade Type: Remote Charge

While being the slowest operator, the demolition class is heavily armored and can resist blasts that would kill weaker classes. Explosives are planted and disarmed faster. Utilizing the Ballistic Armor will give you significant protection against enemy fire at the cost of limited mobility.

Point Man
Class Ability: High Powered Ammunition / Heavy Hitters
Grenade Type: Flashbang

Not only fleet of foot, the Point Man Operator can use "High Powered Ammunition" which can cause extra damage, even capable of dropping a Demolition Class with his Ballistic Armor active. When using his special ability, the Point Man will only be given one 30-bullet clip of special ammo. Aside from the significant damage increase, the recoil produced from every shot is terrible so you may want to fire single controlled shots instead of firing rapidly.

Heavy Gunner
Class Ability: Support Stance
Grenade Type: Mini-Frags

With high rate of fire and large ammo supply, the Heavy Gunner is a welcome addition to any fire team. Unlike the other classes, his special ability isn't anything special. However, his ability to deploy the bipod in his primary weapon greatly reduces recoil, expands the player's mini-map and gives them infinite ammunition. His cluster grenades also enables him to take care of clustered enemies. The Heavy Gunner is an all-rounder which is capable of both offensive and defensive roles.

Spec Ops
Class Ability: Spec Ops Vision
Grenade Type: Frags

The most notable ability of playing a Spec Ops operative is the ability to see through walls and covers. Overall this class is very mobile and versatile, capable of sneaking behind enemy positions and perform fatal close-range attacks. A lightweight class like the Pointman, this class is perfect for players who loves to rush in and deal with targets up close.

Sniper
Class Ability: Bipod

The sniper class has access to bolt-action or semi-automatic rifles which caters to players who want accuracy and power. Like the heavy gunner, snipers can deploy a bipod which acts as a stabilizer that reduces recoil which is a necessity for any sniper. However, this class won't be as verstatile as the others since snipers tend to excel only at certain game modes and become practically useless in others. You may also consider how small most maps in the game are.

Game Modes

Sector Control – This is a domination-type game mode where your team must capture and hold three flags. Medium/close range combat will be prevalent in this mode as you have to be mobile and able to hold points from the opposing team.

Team Deathmatch

This is just a generic mode where opposing teams are pitted against each other. The match will be concluded once the rival team is wiped out.


Real Ops

This is considered as a hardcore mode where all the useful HUDs such as health bar, ammo count,
mini-map, kill cams, etc are disabled.


Hotspot

There are five available bomb sites in the map where teams must capture/ defend until they get at least three sites.


Combat Mission

Pretty much the same as Hotspot but this time, attackers need to plant five bombs while the defenders need to prevent opponents from planting the bomb to win the mode.


Home Run

Two teams will play as both attackers and defenders. Attackers needs to rush towards the enemy base, grab their team's flag and take it back to the finish line. As defenders, they will do whatever it takes to stop the carrier from reaching/ cross the goal. Capturing the flag gives players 2 points  while eliminating all opposition will just give you with a point. To win the game, a team should earn 10 points.
