Are you always bored with fully automatic weapons? Anyone can play with them? Then we have the right setup guide for you today. The FR 5.56 or FAMAS is especially strong in Modern Warfare multiplayer, but can also deal out a lot in Warzone.

The FR 5.56 is based on the French FAMAS and is the only assault rifle in Modern Warfare besides the FAL that does not have a fully automatic fire mode. With its 3-round burst of fire, it is rather unpopular with many players and probably known to most Warzone players mainly because of its briefly bugged shotgun attachment.

However, the weapon is actually incredibly powerful. In multiplayer, a burst to the torso is enough to take out your opponent, and the armor of an enemy can also be destroyed quickly in Warzone. The big drawback is that you have to hit the entire 3-shot burst. If you don’t hit the first burst, you usually don’t have time to follow up before being sprayed down by a fully automatic weapon.

The FR 5.56 in Warzone
Since the DMR 14 and also the AUG and FFAR have been significantly generated, it seems that the FR 5.56 could become the new Warzone meta. So far, the weapon has never been played much in Warzone, as it is damn hard to hit complete bursts, but after a bit of trial and error, it turns out that the FR 5.56 is an absolute beast in single shot mode.

In single shot mode, for some reason we don’t know, the FR 5.56 has no damage drop over distance! Yes, that’s right, no matter if the enemy is right in front of you or 300 meters away, as long as you hit him, you always do the same damage. So if you can click fast and have good aim, you can use the weapon like a DMR at all distances, with a huge magazine.

FR 5.56 Setup
To get the most out of the FR 5.56 we recommend the following setup, which works both in Modern Warfare as a burst weapon and in Warzone with single shot:

As usual, we focus on optimizing the range and controlling the recoil:

• Muzzle: Silencer Monolith
• Barrel: FR 24.4″ Sniper
• Underbarrel: Command foregrip
• Ammo: 60-round magazine
• Grip: Rubberized grip band

The silencer increases range and hides us on the minimap when shooting. The sniper barrel further increases range and especially bullet speed and recoil control. The command foregrip and rubberized grip band also further reduce recoil, which provides good accuracy and consistent hits, especially at longer ranges. For decent kills, we also recommend a larger magazine, but feel free to trade it in for the VLK sight for clearer vision. For multiplayer, you should swap the magazine for increased aiming speed. Here, the Tactical Laser would be the best choice.

With this setup you are still very precise even at long distances. If you have good aim and hit the head, the FR 5.56 is one of the assault rifles with the fastest TTK – both in multiplayer and in Warzone.

Try it out, if you don’t insist on full auto, we guarantee you a lot of fun with the FR 5.56.

CALL OF DUTY – Guide – Tips and Tricks for Beginners

Get the upper hand with these tips and tricks for Call of Duty: Warzone. Call of Duty: Warzone is the new star in the Battle Royal sky. The Free2Play game, which was only launched at the beginning of March, set an incredible player record within a very short time. If you want to join the fray yourself, you can find useful tips and tricks for getting started in our beginner’s guide.

The Battle Royale mode in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare was a long time coming. Since March 10, CoD: Warzone has finally been available, and even as a free2play variant. So it’s no wonder that the multiplayer hit pulverized the player records of Apex Legends within a very short time. This is also due to the fact that Warzone does a few things differently compared to the well-known competition. If you’re planning to throw yourself into the fray and are still looking for a tip or two, you’ll definitely find what you’re looking for in this CoD: Warzone beginner’s guide.

Tip 1: What to consider before landing

Even during the approach sequence, you can see where the first circle is placed by opening the map, while the preferred landing position can be selected by pressing a button. These valuable seconds can be used to agree on a target together with your teammates.

Tip 2: The correct use of the parachute

As in any battle royale shooter, in CoD: Warzone it is important to land as quickly as possible after the jump and to be the first to grab the best weapons or items. This is achieved by opening the parachute after the jump and cutting it directly, which significantly increases the flight speed.

You can reopen and cut the parachute as many times as you like. This is especially useful for flying to destinations far from the flight path. Bonus tip: With the parachute cut, the character pulls out the pistol, which allows firing at enemies.

Tip 3: Life energy and armor

By default, each character in Warzone starts with two armor plates, the maximum being three bars. New plates can be found on the map, and having the most impeccable armor possible significantly increases your chances of victory. All three armor slots should always be filled, if possible (indicated by the blue HUD indicator at the bottom left).

If you take damage in battle, the self-healing known from the main game takes effect – there are no medikits in Warzone. If you are hit, you should simply take cover for a few seconds to regenerate your life energy.

Tip 4: Orders are worthwhile (some at least)

There are three different types of missions on the Verdansk map, marked with yellow tablet icons. Completing the missions rewards your team with additional money and bonus weapons that provide a decisive advantage in the fight for survival.

• Bounty mission (crosshair icon): Kill a given target
• Recon mission (flag icon): Secure and hold a specific area.
• Loot mission (binocular icon): Loot three loot boxes one after the other.

The looting missions bring the biggest advantage, since the three targets are in the immediate vicinity and reward your own team with a good chunk of money as well as powerful guns.

Tip 5: Listen carefully

Connoisseurs of the Call of Duty series know anyway how important a good headset is when playing. Of course, this also applies to Warzone mode. Footsteps of enemies in the vicinity, gunfire in the distance, loot boxes in the immediate vicinity – all of this can be picked out and those who can locate and interpret these acoustic signals have an enormous advantage.

Blue loot boxes, for example, which entice you with additional money and powerful weapons, can be located by a buzzing soundthat gets louder the closer you get to the object of your desire.

But the reconnaissance missions are not to be sneezed at either: If the team succeeds in completing them, the area of the next circle is marked on the tactics map. Thus, you learn in advance which areas will provide protection from the deadly gas.

Tip 6: What it’s worth spending money on

In the course of a round, you inevitably accumulate a considerable amount of money. But what should you spend it on anyway? Money is used in the Battle Royale shooter to request killstreaks or equipment drops at the store stations marked in green, or to bring back teammates who have died.

With a bit of luck, Killstreaks can also be found in loot boxes. Picking them up and using them is absolutely always recommended, as the advantage is enormous.

The in-game money can be invested in the following advantages at the buy stations, for example:

• Additional armor plates ($ 1500)
• Shield gun ($ 2000)
• Cluster Strike ($ 3000)
• Gas Mask ($ 3000)
• Precision Air Strike ($ 3500)
• UAV Drone ($ 4000)
• Self-Resuscitation ($ 4500)
• Squad resuscitation ($ 4500)
• Ammo Box ($ 5000)
• Equipment drop ($ 6000)

The UAV drone is the most rewarding, as it briefly reveals enemy positions in the area, as well as the equipment drop – the only way to use self-made loadouts and thus fully equipped weapons in Warzone.

Tip 7: What to look for in the Gulag

Warzone features a respawn system unique to the genre in the form of the Gulag. Players who have died in Verdansk are shipped to the prison, where they fight in a 1-vs-1 against another player to get back in. Those who lose can only be resurrected by their teammates from then on.

Other players who enter the gulag initially start as spectators on the upper tiers. Teammates can give instructions about the opponent’s position here, for example, but all players have the opportunity to influence the fight that is currently taking place – by throwing stones.

Just like a stun grenade, the stone doe’s one point of damage and is more suited to distracting the players below. However, with some skill, it can also be used to make kills, for example by triggering C4.

Since the lighting in the Gulag is not very good, enemies are correspondingly difficult to spot in the semi-dark. However, there is a simple trick to change that. CoD: Warzone allows you to spray spray logos on walls and other environments – as well as enemies – at the touch of a button. This can be turned into an advantage by making your opponent shine brightly with some yellow paint.
