Learn how to provide covering fire with the MG42 in Call of Duty: Advanced Warfare. Captain Price will instruct you to fall back to the machine gun on the bridge.
Captain Price will instruct you to fall back to the MG42 (a type of machine gun) set up on the bridge. Your task is to provide covering fire (suppressing fire to protect allies) for your squad. While manning the MG42, you do not need to worry about snipers taking headshots (a critical hit to the head), and you can stay in position for as long as you need.
You might find the MG42 initially ineffective due to its muzzle flash and recoil. To be effective, fire in short bursts of two to three seconds. Aim by centering the cross-hairs on your target, then fire. Repeat this process until you receive a new objective.
- Fire the MG42 in short, two to three-second bursts to manage recoil and muzzle flash.
- Center your cross-hairs on the target before firing for better accuracy.
- You are safe from snipers while manning the MG42.
