1)When I leave my vehicle behind and get into close or medium range combat I usually end up dead. Often I hardly damage my opponent. Here are some problems I've been having:
-Getting flanked:
This game has very limited methods of letting you know where your enemies are. So when I enter a room I often don't know whether or not a hostile will be in there. On top of that all rooms have multiple entrances/cover places. A fight seems to last about 1.5 seconds on average, which doesn't exactly leave you any time to clear all entrances/corners/... in a room.
Any advice on how to improve my situational awareness?
-Not getting my fire on the target:
Often when I get the drop on a target I still don't manage to get the kill. Guns seem to shoot all over the place except where you point them. The recoil on the guns is terrible as well.
I play NC. From what I've read/seen this may be a problem unique to that faction. If so, does it get solved by getting the grip certification for your guns?
Any other advice?
I don't have any first person shooter experience and a lot of my failings can probably be attributed to that, so keep it in mind while answering.
2) Side question: why do snipers of different factions carry different amounts of ammo? Most (at least 70%) of my kills with Infiltrators are head shots. Even at very long range it doesn't seem that hard to land them. They are a one hit kill, so what justifies only giving an NC infiltrator half the ammo carried compared to a TR one?
