Game Description
Free Fire is a game for fans of running around the map and shooting opponents. The main action takes place on the island. The player must choose a hero at the start - it can be a man or a woman (Adam and Eve). These are starting characters that do not have additional skills.
After choosing a character, you can try your hand at a match. The match lasts 10 minutes, and only 50 people participate in it. The main task is to survive until the end of the fight. The game is very dynamic, you should not expect that if the player pays for some bonuses with real money (donat), then immediately starts killing everyone and becomes the first.
So, the player created a character and clicked on the "Start" button, after that he gets to the player gathering camp. You don't have to do anything here, but you can look at your opponents. Then, all the participants of the match fly in a plane over the island. At some point, the player will be asked to leave the flying vehicle. Heroes descend to the island on a skateboard, then you need to open the parachute.
Before the match for achievements or donat, the player can get good boxes with the help of-auto-parcel, which will arrive on the island and greatly help to survive on it (but parcels come only in the first minutes of the battle):
- Armor box - the player will receive additional armor or weapons (it will help them hold out longer at the start, and maybe even kill someone).
- Support box - you will receive first-aid kits (sometimes they are needed) or ammunition.
- Pockets-add +30 items to the inventory used on the island.
- Scanner-shows the number of people in the plane and reveals the positions of flying opponents.
Battle Items
The player gets to the island without armor and weapons, only in the clothes that he put on the character before the battle. But clothing doesn't offer additional benefits. Of course, you can choose not very bright clothing, so that the hero does not stand out against the background of trees and buildings. Basically, all items are stored in buildings.
Weapons - The game has many different melee and ranged weapons. For some weapons, you can find additional accessories (silencer, horn, optical sight, handle). They help to improve the quality of shooting, reduce the spread of bullets, or increase the viewing range. It is recommended to choose only the weapon that the player owns. If, for example, a player has taken a sniper rifle, but does not know what to do with it, then this formidable weapon will turn into a club.
Armor is a helmet and body armor. The helmet will save you from a direct hit to the head of a sniper, and the vest will not allow you to kill the hero at point-blank range. There is also a frying pan, which is both a weapon (cold) and protection. If the player has found a frying pan, then when running or crossing an open area, you should pick it up. The dishes do not slow down the movement, are silent and can be applied well to it.
First aid kits and mushrooms-first aid kits can be found, as well as other items. But it doesn't make sense to spend them on restoring a small amount of health points. There are mushrooms for this. They grow in the fields and groves of the island.
Additional items - everything that lies on the island-are sure to come in handy in battle. The main thing is to use the received items correctly. For example, not all weapons are equipped with a horn or silencer.
Walls are an additional protection. When it is activated, an ice curtain appears in front of the hero, which will help to hide in the open, or in a difficult moment will help to save a teammate.
Transport - you can set up any type of transport on the island that is shown on the map. But you need to be careful with it. Cars make a lot of noise, which can attract opponents. Therefore, it is not recommended to travel short distances by car. But you also need to be wary of a driving car. If the player has nothing to attack with, then it is better to hide, because the hero can easily be knocked down.
Tactics of behavior on the island
All achievements that the player will receive will be completed on the island. Therefore, it is very important, even at the moment of jumping, to concentrate and be very careful. It is important to remember that the winner can only stay 1, he can get a good reward for the match (gold, boxes, a free character for a while, and much more). During the jump, you can carefully view the map of the island, see where the nearest opponents land. With proper maneuvering, you can land on the roof of the building and quickly take possession of the weapon.
Dangerous places. These are the places where other players land most frequently. There are several such places on the map. If the player is still poorly oriented, then do not fall into areas:
- The runway is a large open space where the hero is very clearly visible. It is recommended to choose buildings that surround the lane. There are places for hiding and "lying down" to meet opponents.
- Hangar is a good and bad place to drop off at the same time. If the player did not manage to get into the hangar first, then he can expect surprises from opponents in the form of point-blank fire. But if the player was the first to enter the room and managed to pick up weapons, ammunition and armor, then you can hide in a secluded place and meet slow opponents.
- A shipyardis a large space in a shipyard that is filled with containers. Here, the player will not find a weapon, but can get lead as a gift from the enemy. There is no point in landing here - there are no items, but it eats a lot of space where enemies can wait for the hero.
- Bimasaki Strip, Katulistiwa-these places are very similar to pit traps. Yes, there are a lot of necessary items in buildings, but there may be a sniper waiting on the surrounding hills. It is not recommended to go to such places.
- Peak - the highest point on the map, in the available buildings there is a little equipment, but it is not worth the possible fights with opponents. You should not land in this place if the player has not yet mastered the controls.
The most favorable places for landing (they have little equipment, so these places are not popular with players) :
- Outpost is a place with several small buildings where you can wait out the first skirmishes with players.
- Plantation - these are plantations where you can find a sufficient amount of uniforms. The territory is far from dangerous landing sites.
- Mill-this is a mill that always has a lot of players, but if you land in the vicinity of the mill, you can get a good hold of weapons and weapons and armor.
Sounds. Some of the sounds in the game may seem strange, but they are very good help to survive on the island. It is better to use headphones when playing Free Fire and not turn on music. The game is very audible when someone is walking or driving. At the same time, it is recommended to use a headset that increases the range of hearing. You should always pay attention to the sounds that other players make, especially if the character is in a closed room. When the player learns to hear the surrounding environment, he will be able to determine in which room and from which side he is in danger.
For the same reasons, you should not run near buildings or indoors. The hero can be heard by other players. Of course, the advice not to run doesn't apply to the start of the match. This advice is relevant at a later stage. The player needs to be constantly on the move, but this does not mean that you can run.
Moment of disembarkation. After the player lands on the ground, if there are no other players nearby, then you can look around. But if the gamer saw that other characters were landing nearby, then you need to run away from them. You should beware of large cities or clusters of buildings, where you can often stumble upon an ambush. At the very beginning, you should let your opponents kill each other, and only then go in search of adventures yourself.
If the player is still poorly oriented on the map, then you should not rush to jump out of the plane first. In this case, there is a chance to land in a quiet place where there are no opponents. If the hero landed in the center of the map, then you should find a car and leave as soon as possible.
Transport. Experienced players are advised to avoid using any type of transport if the gamer runs around the island alone. The machine can only be used in an emergency. Transport makes a lot of noise and can be seen at a great distance. If the player has to use a vehicle, try to get rid of it as quickly as possible. After the player has left the vehicle, you should run away from it.
If the player is flying to the island in a team, then the cars can be used. One person will drive the car, and the other will shoot back. You only need to use transport when the player is playing a match with a friend. Otherwise, it's suicide.
Armor - this item of clothing in Free Fire is much more important than a weapon. Most players first try to find weapons on the island. But the player must first find at least some armor. Even if the gamer has the best weapon in the game, a single sniper shot to the head can kill the character. The head is the most vulnerable place, so you need to protect it with a helmet. A headshot can seriously injure or kill the hero, so the first step is to find a helmet. If the player does not have a weapon, but has armor, then it will allow the player to escape from the battlefield at a certain stage of the match. The task at the start of the battle is to survive, and only then start fighting.
Greed. Periodically, boxes with equipment, first-aid kits and many useful things fall from the sky. The best weapons are hidden in them. Players feel an overwhelming urge to run up to some crate. But do not rush to do this. Other players probably noticed the package too, and now there are several characters crowding around the box. You should forget about the mailbox. Instead, it is recommended to climb a hill or building that is located near the crash site, and arrange an ambush. This way you can kill a couple of your opponents from a distance. It should be remembered that greedy players do not live long in this game.
If a player has lived to 7-8 minutes of the match, then his inventory should contain a lot of different things (armor, weapons). At this time, greed is especially terrible. At this point, you need to focus on survival, not on resource extraction. You should not chase after a new weapon if the weapon that the player has, he is quite satisfied with it. The difference between different types of weapons is not so great. There is no need to improve the rifle if it is currently doing a great job. It is better to collect first-aid kits.
The minimap is any player's best friend. On it, you can see other players who start shooting (at this point, they are shown on the map for the duration of shooting). Such players are indicated by a red arrow, the tip of which indicates the direction of the shooter's gaze. This should be used to gain an advantage. If a player sees a red arrow on the minimap, it means that another gamer is nearby, and in a few seconds you can find out their exact location. It's time to attack!
