Tips, Tricks, and Basic Strategy
- Cover is crucial: Utilize any large inanimate object for cover, such as cars, slot machines, doors, desks, crates, and particle board.
- Headshots are key: Aim for the head; 1-3 bullets are usually enough to neutralize any enemy, regardless of armor or tactics.
- Flanking: Shooting enemies in the back is the second most effective tactic after headshots.
- Patience is a virtue: Be prepared for random, unexpected deaths, often from headshots.
- Reloading: Always reload when possible, even if the magazine isn't empty. Speed reloading is faster and provides a full magazine plus an extra round.
- Thermal Vision: Useful for identifying targets in low-light conditions and gaining a reflex advantage in close-quarters combat. It does not penetrate walls or doors.
- Suppressed Weapons: Your team carries suppressed SMGs for infiltration. You can force them to use SMGs in assault mode by using a suppressed weapon yourself, including your pistol.
- Suppressor Use: Suppressors reduce damage by 25-33%. Use them strategically for stealth, lining up headshots, and avoid using them for body or limb shots if you anticipate a firefight.
- Weapon Handling: Use full-auto for SMGs and the FAMAS. Switch assault rifles like the MTAR21 or SCAR-H CQC to semi-auto for better control.
- Alternate Paths: Use alternate routes to scout ahead, flank enemies, and manage chaotic firefights.
- X-fire Tactic: Have your team attack from a different angle than yours to split enemy focus and create openings.
- Coordinated Breaching: When entering rooms, have your team breach one door with explosives while you breach another, ready to engage. Prioritize targets not immediately downed by the breach.
- Avoid Recklessness: Unlike other games, R6 Vegas requires more caution. Avoid being too reckless, especially when leaning out.
- Blind Fire: Inefficient and a waste of ammo. Use only as a last resort for suppression or at extremely close range. Blind firing a sniper rifle can yield humorous results.
- Peeking Safely: Never peek from a corner under enemy fire. Peek from a different direction or move to new cover.
- Target Priority/Tag: Use the Tag command even without the snake cam. Infiltrate with your team, position them, then switch to assault mode for coordinated takedowns.
- Spamming Tag: If unsure about a target through the snake cam, spam the Tag button to confirm if it's an enemy.
- Jung Park's Hacking: Expect assaults from multiple directions, enemies shooting the computer, and Jung not finishing until most enemies are eliminated.
- Murphy's Law: Even in ideal stealth situations, expect to be detected and attacked.
