PvP Tips
Use Your Sparrow (If You Can) - Just ‘cause you are in a PvP match that doesn’t mean you can’t use your Sparrow! Well, it does on most maps, but on the Moon map ‘First Light’ you are able to use your Sparrow to get around. It’s a really useful way of getting straight back in to the fight after you’ve died, or if you need to get out of a hairy situation quickly.
Always Pick Up The Special and especially [Heavy Ammo]] - Heavy and Special ammo are VERY useful. Currently, they spawn after the first 30 seconds, then after that they spawn every 60 seconds until the game finishes. If you pick up an ammo drop, any team mates within 20 metres will also receive the ammo that was picked up, so always make sure to pick it up if you are nearby.
Switch Weapons On The Fly - Playing on a close quarters map and you wish you had your Shotgun but you have a Sniper rifle in your Special slot instead? Don’t worry; you are able to switch out your weapons at any time. HOWEVER, any time you switch out your Special/Heavy weapon to another weapon you will lose all of the ammo you had for that type of weapon, so be cautious!
