Well if you only want it for single player then yea, rent it. If you have friends that play it a lot its fun. Thats another thing, if you play by yourself you will get messed up quickly, you gotta know what your team does in order to succeed. Like my friend always walked into the middle like a mad man and I picked up the good weapon while the entire team focused on killing him. I played a lot of wingman though, I am really good at that.

Well heres a tip, always use the shotgun. Only use the lancer in the beginning of the round or when you are shooting from a distance. Also, if you are in close combat, melee first and then shoot with the shotgun, that is called two piecing and it is basically an instant kill if you don't miss.

 

I don't know if this has been fixed or not, but if someone is revving their chainsaw and coming toward you, RUNN, it is like a vacuum, just run back and shoot them with your shotgun.

 

Watch the "good" weapons that spawn in the middle. People always run at them like idiots and its an easy way to get them down with the lancer. Make sure to active reload in the beginning of the game, just shoot a clip and then get the active reload and run out.

So if your a n00b like me how long will it take me to get better.

Long time lol SRV game you some good tips here are mine.

 

- When using the shot gun you dont have to look through your sights just hold down the trigger and aim at close range.

- Hammer-burst >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Lancer in Warzone, but you're new so your better of sticking with the chain saw

- When using grenades throw both of them quick and they explode faster.

- The best think to do is just wait back for people and not go at them.

- Boomshot > all

 

good luck

Also grenades are great when you stick them on walls. Once you learn the maps, you can get a kill by sticking grenades on the wall in every round.

 

Don't snipe unless you are really good with it, its only a kill if you get a headshot, it is a great melee weapon though because it is really long.

 

Never walk around by yourself, stick by your teammate.

 

Use cover for everything, don't turn a corner without peaking around first.

 

That is basically it. Depending on the game mode you will figure out your strategies. To get a lot of kills quickly just play King of the Hill, its very fun and you can rack up kills easily.

 

Just remember the shotgun is really the only useful weapon, once you learn how to use it [Two-piecing] you are pretty much unstoppable.

What are you guys talking about when you say two-piercing?

If you are in close combat with someone, have the shotgun out. Click B to melee that person, it stuns them for a second, and while they are stunned just put your shotgun into their stomach or close to it and shoot, he will split in half, and you got yourself a kill. You don't even need to aim, just melee and shoot.

Kind of like Halo where you chase someone down with your gun and then melee them to finish them off, just in reverse.

I don't think they patched that as its been around since the first GOW.

Wingman is my favorite too. I like having one teammate I know really well and I can depend on rather than five who have no idea what to do. It all depends on your starting point though, a lot of time if you spawn in the middle you have 0 chance of surviving.
