Tips[]
- When using the Minigun, try to stay aware of your surroundings at all times.
- You can keep the Minigun spun up by holding down MOUSE 2, ensuring you are ready at a moment's notice. This can highly useful in holding defense positions.
- Keep in mind that spinning up the Minigun will decrease your movement speed significantly along with producing a loud revving sound that alerts others to your presence.
- You can jump and tap alt-fire to bypass the Minigun's speed penalty while spun up, although this does not limit the volume of the revving sound.
- Keep in mind that spinning up the Minigun will decrease your movement speed significantly along with producing a loud revving sound that alerts others to your presence.
- Work on your timing with the Minigun. When switching from your secondary or melee weapon to the Minigun, it takes at least three seconds to switch, rev up, and fire.
- While you may have a sizable ammo pool, it's important to not waste it on unnecessary targets, such as SuperCharged enemies or enemies at long range.
