[h2]INTRODUCTION TO GUNPLAY[/h2]
From the thrill of outmaneuvering enemies at close range to the relief of landing that critical shot, we want every key moment, every attack countered, and every shifting tide of battle to feel immersive and rewarding.
To that end, gun gameplay in World War 3 (gunplay for short) strikes a balance between fun and what we like to call playable realism. For example, you’ll have to adapt to different levels of recoil depending on whether you’re firing from the hip or aiming down your gun’s sights. Scoped weapons equipped with realistic magnification and red sightlines may also require you to hold your breath for a better shot.
After a short time getting to grips with these weapons, we hope that the realistic elements will become second nature to you.
[h2]WEAPON TYPES[/h2]
A balanced, carefully considered loadout is key to effective combat in World War 3. Raid your arsenal and load up with different types of weapons, including:
[h2]WEAPON ATTACHMENTS[/h2]
There are various types of attachments that can alter the performance of your weapon to suit different playstyles and battle scenarios. Switch between primary and secondary sights to tweak your battle approach, and practically guarantee your kills with the use of holographic sights.
Looking beyond sights, you can try out different weapon grips, muzzles, silencers, and even bipods for steadier shots. Need a better read on a target? Switch lasers and flashlights on and off for better targeting and visibility.
If you’re wondering how to juggle all these weapons and attachments, don’t forget about your Backpack! Use it to bring additional gear in battle and adapt your tactics on the fly. Try out different loadouts to find the best tools to help win the fight!
[h2]FIRING MODES[/h2]
If the enemy team is giving you grief, you may need to switch up your tactics by changing your firing mode:
Outwit and outgun enemies by experimenting with different firing modes!
[h2]AMMUNITION[/h2]
While your standard ammunition is good for most combat engagements, you can also gear up with special ammo. Bring secondary ammo like hollow-point bullets into battle, and save them up for when you need an especially lethal shot.
You can’t rely on specializing in a single weapon to attain victory every time. Switch up your weapons and try to master different types, especially in different situations such as close-combat and long-range sniper battles. Adapt to survive and win in World War 3!

[h2]FIRING MODES[/h2]
If the enemy team is giving you grief, you may need to switch up your tactics by changing your firing mode:
- Single Fire: Allows you control and assurance while maintaining a low rate of fire.
- Burst Fire: Fires more powerful and controlled shots every time you pull the trigger.
- Automatic Fire: Switch things up to 11 with a continuous firing rate, which is great for providing covering fire and taking enemies down quickly and with extreme prejudice.
