Exercise: Controlling FAMAS Bursts

FAMAS Video Tutorial by HattonTapping with the FAMAS makes sense when you are not playing against opponents with head armor, since you can kill them with a single headshot. It’s worth practicing for long distance combat, but often the burst mode is preferred, due to it's slightly higher accuracy. Tapping avoids spray effects altogether. Since it take only milliseconds to reset, you can shoot pretty fast.Timer: 10:00 minShoot once at a blank wall and choose a spot about 2 meters left or right at close range and shoot once again. Now try to hit these spots alternatingly, close around the first entry holes, one bullet at a time. In general, focus on bursting and spraying with the FAMAS.Start a local offline game without bots on de_dust2. Set the warmup time to 10 minutes by entering 'mp_warmuptime 600'. You can restart the warmup at any time with 'mp_warmup_start'.Bursting with the FAMAS can be done in burst mode as well as automatic mode. The burst mode is slightly more accurate with the first bullet and the fire rate is significantly higher. If you practice bursting and you do not have dynamic crosshair (most don’t these days), you know that your aim is reset, when your weapon model is back into default position (it goes up and back while bursting). You can use bursting in combination with side stepping / strafing in order to be harder to hit. Use bursting especially for medium to long distances with the FAMAS. Do not use the burst mode in close range combat.Timer: 20:00 minShoot at a blank wall and line up bursts of 3-6 shots closely around the first shot.Start a local offline game without bots on de_dust2. Set the warmup time to 20 minutes by entering 'mp_warmuptime 1200'. You can restart the warmup at any time with 'mp_warmup_start'.
