- Boat camping:Destroy/steal boats to trap players on rig
- Heli insertion:Drop team on helipad during crate countdown
- Cargo ship timing:Use cargo arrival at large oil as distraction
Defense Against Counters
- • Always leave one player watching approaches
- • Build tool cupboard near locked crate
- • Place doors/walls to block common routes
- • Keep boat in safe spot with lock
- • Have escape plan (parachutes, diving gear)
High-Risk Scenarios
- • Multiple teams converging
- • Patrol helicopter aggro during fight
- • Running out of meds mid-combat
- • Cargo ship docking blocks escape
