So far, the highlighted long-range weaponry has not included a gun purely dedicated to that kind of fighting. That changes with this rifle, which is all about trying to pepper enemies while crouched or lying down a ways away from them. The Mini-14 has a good range in its base form that can be improved upon with the right attachments as w
Uluru is Shepard's offensive counterpart . He specializes in taking out important targets with TV-guided missiles and creating hardpoints with deployable cover . Uluru is also equipped with incendiary grenades that can cut off choke points, and like Shepard, he has access to the powerful SCAR-H assault rifle for engaging enemies from close-medium ran
The issue with the M16A4 is not even really that much of an issue at all, and it's just that it is pretty unassuming. While it isn't bad, it just also doesn't do enough as an assault rifle to separate itself from the other options. The other two available each bring something that gives them a slight edge, but that doesn't mean players can't use this one effectively. It just might not be as flashy as the other opti
All of that is present in Hawk Ops, but with the added caveat of choosing an Operator before diving in, which adds another layer by making you consider what abilities you want to bring in. Considering how challenging I found the previous game mode, I opted to go for Stinger, since his Support type allowed me to heal myself without using any resources.
As is the case with most shotguns in FPS games , the M870 comes with a powerful punch with each shot at the cost of accuracy from a distance. While that can be an appealing thing in the right situation, those kinds of scenarios just aren't going to happen enough to make it worth
I also spent a good amount of time with Kai, an Assault Operator who can shoot a barrage of grenades, deploy a smoke bomb, and, after enough time, activate an exoskeleton that boosts his movement speed, which makes him a great beginner pick. I was a little sceptical about the Operator system considering how unbalanced the Specialists felt in Battlefield 2042, but it did make playing Hawk Ops feel more tactical, which is one of the series’ main focuses.
The AKS-74 is a standout from the jump, and it only gets better with attachments. The driving force behind what makes the AKS-74 so good is its predictability; it kicks hard, but its recoil is almost completely verti
This will help when things go wrong, which will happen when a person is trying to learn the ropes of the game. Without experience, players can expect to have some less-than-stellar matches that will result in losing money. Having simpler equipment will reduce that impact as much as possib
While it can have a pretty unwieldy amount of recoil when firing, the right attachments can make the AKS-74 much more manageable. Putting on the right muzzle, stock, and grip can go a long way to making this assault rifle much more accurate than its base form. All in all, this makes it truly a viable weapon to carry into any battle, though players may want to keep long-distance shots to a mini
Delta Force makes a return after its 15-year hiatus with its latest installment. Also known as Delta Force Mods Force: Hawk Ops , the latest in the series comes for games like Escape from Tarkov and Battlefield , sporting extraction shooter and large-scale warfare modes side-by-side - and all for f
Updated on March 15th, 2025, by Nathan Halsey: Delta Force has entered its second season, adding a new character as well as some balance refreshers. Since this article was originally written, more time has been spent with and around the current arsenal of weapons, and as more is learned of the game, a meta has become clearer. It should also be noted that in Delta Force's Warfare mode, Battle Rifles and Assault Rifles are placed within the same weapon category, having no real distinction aside from having different challenge progression. This article will use the term Assault Rifle to refer to both of them, as the distinction is seldom referenced in the game and within the Warfare community, and the use-case for each weapon is nearly identi
All operators are available in every game mode Delta Force has to offer, and while Warfare and Operations play very differently from each other, you can expect the characters to function more or less the same regardless of where they are. Here's a guide covering all playable operators, their abilities and gadgets, as well as some tips on how to use t
The CAR-15 is one of the starting weapons for all classes, and the most versatile of the Rifles, able to use many attachments from other weapons like the M16 and M4A1. It needs a few levels and attachments before its recoil becomes manageable, but when it does it’s a simple weapon that is lightweight and effective at both short and mid-ra
With experience, knowledge will make each match easier to navigate. Players won't have to worry about being taken by surprise by an unknown corner or accidentally wandering into an area with ample line of sight for the enemy. But it takes time and players need to be patient with
