- Explore alternate ways: Players can either use a vehicle to race past the sentries to the main objective or take the route of water in order go out of the enemy’s sight. Plus, they can utilize their parachutes to hover over the opponents’ camps.
- Choose the right and apt gear for the job: At first, one will need to adjust things with the basic loadout offered at the start of an open combat mission. But one can increase it exponentially by exploring and scavenging. Eventually, players will be able to find a lot of variety in getting the best equipment according to their own play style.
