Battlefield combat
Battlefield combat is short. This page covers first shots, lane holds, and resets around flags.
Pick the first shot
Win the first angle. Battlefield players who wide-swing every door lose to someone waiting on vehicles.
Keep the crosshair at the height the next player will appear. Fancy movement is slower than a ready lane.
Hold a lane
One lane is enough. Cover revive chains and let teammates take the rest.
Javelin / EA anti-cheat updates do not change this: a calm hold still beats a panic swing.
Reset after the spray
After the spray, reload behind cover and count steps. wide maps with vehicles, objectives, and squad revive chains punishes people who chase while empty.
If the fight is even, leave. flanks is still there on the next pass.
