As players spend more time figuring out the first-person shooter mechanics, and learning the maps and weapons, it will become easier to master this game. But learning these great tips for Combat Master is a sure fire way to have an advantage over the other players in the game.

7 Always Remain Mobile

Mobility is one of the most important aspects of Combat Master. Those who can master how to remain mobile while also maintaining accuracy can become pros at this game. That being said, while playing this game, the player should be moving around most of the time. Whether they're engaging in enemies or finding them, they must never stop moving, like they were playing a run and gun game.

Practice aiming at enemies while moving left and right, jumping up and down, and while sliding. Players will be able to start mastering the game once they can make successful kills while moving.

6 Master The Maps

There are currently 11 maps in Combat Masters. Those who want to excel at the game should take the time to master every single one of them. A lot of matches are set at random and players may not know beforehand which map they'll end up playing on. The best players of the game can excel regardless of which map they're on.

That being said, players who want to master this game should take the time to play on every single map at least three times, or to the point they're fully familiar with the layout. This one may take some time, but as long as the player pours hours upon hours into this game, they may as well just shuffle between maps instead of focusing on one.

5 Master Each Weapon Type

4 Play Around With The Sensitivity Options

Whether the player is playing on PC or Mobile, they should take the time to play around with the sensitivity options. Some players prefer it fast while some are perfectly comfortable with a medium setting. Most Combat Master players will argue that a fast sensitivity setting works best for this game given its pace, but it will still vary from player to player.

Regardless, the player should find which setting works best for them, and they should stick with that. Players will find this setting from the Options on the main menu, under Controls or Gamepad.

3 Use The Melee Attack

A lot of players don't bother using melee when it comes to shooters, but that would be a massive disservice when it comes to Combat Master. While playing this game, players should perform a melee attack when the opportunity presents itself. For example, when they turn around or turn into a corner and find themselves face-to-face with an enemy.

2 Wear Headphones While Playing

This is a minor tip but one that can vastly improve a player's experience. Wear headphones and the enemies' footsteps can be heard better. This can prove immensely useful in a lot of situations. This way, the player won't be surprised when they turn a corner and suddenly find themselves facing an enemy or more.

Sound design has been playing a major part in a lot of today's first-person multiplayer shooters. It's a feature every player should take advantage of by simply wearing headphones while playing.

1 Know When To Reload

Reloading in Combat Master.

Knowing when to reload will drastically improve a player's skill. Many players will feel obliged to reload their weapon right after killing an enemy or when it's not at max capacity. This is a mistake players should avoid doing.

The best time to reload in this game is when the player is sure there is no enemy nearby. This way, they can't get caught off guard and can reactively shoot swiftly. Players can think of reloading as a luxury they can only afford when they know their position is perfectly safe.

Combat Master Season 1 is out on PC, Android mobile devices, and iOS mobile devices.
