re: any experienced players help?

Use the rifle, single shots- make them count.

AA is designed to reflect real training. If you were to pass the shoothouse test in real life, you'd need skill to do it. We can only give you so many tips, the rest is all you.

You'll be playing the shoothouse for a while till you can breeze through it. Memorize not specific targets, but areas where there are a lot of targets, and areas where there are few targets. The reason here is because you can shave off precious seconds by reloading in an area where only a few targets exist, rather than reloading while many targets exist and you're on the clock. You'll try to memorize where specific enemies are, and friendlies, so you'll go in knowing where to shoot.

DO NOT DO THAT.

The key to survival is learning how to distinguish friend from foe in a split second's time. By memorizing where each target is you're not passing a test, your just completing an annoying task. There are plenty of players online that have this down; sharp as knives. This is an online game, and if you want to win you'll need that skill. This is where you hone it, so don't take shortcuts unless ya really don't give a rats ass and want to hit up the online component ASAP. If you do that, try your best to play in servers with friendly fire set off. Downed buddies'll only take so much aggravation before booting you out the server.

Take my advice, work on the skill and reflex, and watch the clock. You can do it, just keep at it, and stay frosty.

re: any experienced players help?

Yeah man, it's simply point and shoot with single fire.

If you're having trouble on that...you're gonna have a hard time playing AA....

re: any experienced players help?

if your under 16 then you might as well not bother playing the game because you'll just get shot every 10 seconds if you want something thats for younger kids try gunz its alot easier

I'm 14 and I don't have that much problems playing AA...

You just gotta get the hang of it.

What I suggest newer players to do is to play Collapsed Tunnel and master Close Quaters Combat (CQC)

Once you do that it's just down to memorizing the maps and getting experience, then the game is a lot of fun.

Hooah.

They key is really mastering CQC and then it's a ton of fun. Because about three quaters of my battles are CQC and when you are good at it you kill a lot of people.

re: any experienced players help?

I agree. Mostly CQC. a good thing to do is have one button close to ur WASD keys that is set for center screen. Its quicker than pulling ur gun up with the mouse and its at neck level. So its easy to get a HS with recoil.
