FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best sniper rifle overall?
The Kar98 remains the top pick for most players thanks to its one-shot feel and reliable scope, though the WA2000 is a strong alternative for faster aimers.
Do different snipers have different stats?
Yes. While every sniper can one-shot, they differ in scope zoom, aim speed, and handling, which changes how each one feels in a fight.
How do I unlock more weapons?
New snipers unlock as you play and earn credits, while premium options can be bought with cash or pulled from cases on the market.
Are knives just cosmetic?
Cosmetically yes, but the knife is your fastest swap after a shot and is essential for the quick-switch reload trick used by experienced players.
