How to play it

The M4 has the highest damage output of the 5.56 rifles, and 5.56 was not touched by the Season 2 damage cuts — so it gained ground on the .308 and 7.62 guns that were.

  • Push into the Control Zone with your squad; bodies in the zone are what score.
  • The suppressor keeps you off the map while you flank toward the Hot Zone.
  • Use the Molotov to clear rooms and deny corners (it is weaker in rain).

Alternatives

  • Not Assault 28 yet? Run the Galil (Assault 10) or the AK74 build.
  • Swap to the STANAG 60-round magazine (Assault 30) if you hold a position.
  • Swap 5.56 FMJ for HP ammo (WARDOG 10) against lightly armoured enemies.
