    Advice On Getting Your Marksman


    For all you new recruits trying to get your Marksman here are some personal tips on doing so.

    1. Listen to your teammates
    This is probably the most important step because this will get you kills. If you hear someone has gone down chances are that enemy is lurking in that teammates area.

    2. Understand your play style
    If your a Run-N-Gun, Hybrid, or Camper make sure the members in your party know this. Accommodations can and will be made so that we may compliment your style in order to help you receive your Marksman Medal.

    3. Make sure you watch the time.
    No one wants to be 14-7 and miss out because they weren't focused on the time. When time is running out make sure you let your teammates know you will be actively searching for that kill and they will point you in the right direction. Your mates can also back off on their kills so that the game won't end before you've completed your Marksman.

    4. Know your set-up
    Make sure no <Kill> streaks are equipped and that this is your most powerful class.


    5. If you fail don't be discouraged
    It's not as easy as it seems but with help you can get it. Full members will help in anyway possible, even holding off on kills. Everyone has a bad game here and there just get back on that horse!

    6. Communication
    If you see an enemy and they slipped passed you call it out. This way we know were the traffic is. If you go down, call it out, that way we can cover and eliminate the threat. Any other info is helpful too enemy position, weapon, etc. Your team members may also give you valuable critique information on your play-style or best class set-ups. We were there once so don't be afraid to ask.

    7. Try something new
    If your struggling then change up you strategy. Try a different spot. Change you class set-up. Play Hardcore instead of Core. I would only recommend doing these if you've tried multiple time with no luck.

    8. Understand if your a Core/Hardcore player
    Let the members know and we can accommodate you by playing those game-types.
    (Remember you need less than half the Core required games to achieve Marksman on Hardcore)


    9. Don't Cheat
    If you violate any of the rules in achieving your Marksman(use of an explosive, killstreak, team-killing, etc.) getting caught trying to count it towards your Marksman will cost you your entrance in CAG. Please don't let it get to that point and eliminate that game on your own.


    10. Have fun
    It might sound stupid but no one likes to play with a douche.

    11. Be active on the forums
    There are a lot of reasons being on the forums is helpful. You could post a time you'll be available to play (This way other members could help you get your Marksman). Posting about your struggles could give you some valuable advice. And if your nearing your two week deadline a post could help you get extra time in getting your Marksman.

    I believe if you follow all these steps you can be well on your way to achieving your Marksman.

    PestiferousJoe :
    Use your senses to locate enemies because there is no mini-map and kill cams are disabled.

You could say that you'll cover, go and get the kill, and come back to your position when your teammate re-spawns and comes back.

    2. Stay in you spot
    One of the more critical aspects because this let's the team know were the spawns are.

    3. Make sure you watch the time.
    No one wants to be 14-7 and miss out on their Marksman because they weren't focused on the time. When time is running out make sure you let your teammates know you will be actively searching for that kill they will point you in the right direction and you can leave your post to get your Marksman.

    4. Know your set-up
    Make sure no <Kill> streaks are equipped and that this is your most powerful class. I recommend Support with vest, ground jammer, and oracle.
    5. If you fail don't be discouraged
    It's not as easy as it seems but with help you can get it. Full members will help in anyway possible, even holding off on kills. Everyone has a bad game here and there just get back on that horse!

    8. Understand Hardcore
    If your a Core player than you've got a lot of learning to do. Sit-rep and Blast shield are going to help you a lot more than Focus and ICU. Explosive will kill easily and sometimes the maps are littered with IEDs or enemies will have grenade launchers...be prepared. Usually the fastest gun wins because 1-3 bullets will kill. Use your senses to locate enemies because there is no mini-map and kill cams are disabled.

    9. Have fun
    It might sound stupid but no one likes to play with a douche.
