4 Tips to Playing Black Squad Efficiently

Black Squad is a free-to-play first-person shooting (FPS) game which was developed by NS Studio and subsequently released as a beta version on the 28th of July 2017 by Neowiz (an online game publisher based South Korea). The game, which was previously known as Viper Circle, was initially released to the public in 2013 and has since undergone modifications to feature elements of modern military warfare.

Black Squad’s story line mainly revolves around two opposing teams – the Viper Circle and the Peacemaker. Viper Circle is a terror group which is notorious for organizing criminal activities to increase their wealth. The Peacemaker, on the other hand, is an anti-terrorist squad created with the help of the United Nations primarily to stop the Viper Circle.

Black Squad offers competitive multiplayer gameplay, including modes such as Team Deathmatch, Demolition, Assassination, and more. The focus of the game is on tactical gameplay, skillful shooting, and teamwork, providing an engaging experience for players looking for fast-paced online multiplayer action.

Players can get to choose between the two opposing teams and battle on different maps. You can either spend your gold to lease weapons or acquire them permanently using the medals that you earn in the game. There are also ten different game modes, and daily and weekly challenges to help you master the game.

Even with just a few months since the release of the early access version, Black Squad continues to draw thousands of FPS fanatics from all over the globe. A game like this is what I would like to be playing on my PC. It takes a lot of skills to master a game and Black Squad is definitely one of them.

Mastering the game is actually doable if you have enough patience, practice a lot, and take note of a couple of tips. Use these four helpful tips while playing Black Squad and start enjoying the game like never before.

1. Take advantage of Special Combat Skills.

Special Combat Skills, also known as Killstreaks, are additional features that reward players with passive and active abilities in the Battle game mode. By advancing through the in-game ranks, a player can unlock all Special Combat Skills from the four types: Assault, Support, Combat, and Recon. A player can equip up to four abilities which cannot be replaced until the match ends.

2. Learn the Black Squad’s playing style.

Like any other FPS games, Black Squad also has its own game mechanics. You may have seen tagging or the brief inability of a player to move and stabilize after being shot in other FPS games such as Counterstrike. This feature is absent in Black Squad, making the run and gun playing style highly efficient to use in order to get as many kills as possible. Snipers, meanwhile, are great to counter run and gun players with its one-shot kill ability. Of course, who could forget hacking someone to death using a machete or knife back in Counterstrike.

Black Squad does feature melee weapons such as knives and machetes. While the primary focus of the game is on shooting and ranged combat, players have the option to equip melee weapons as a secondary weapon choice. These melee weapons can be used for close quarters combat when engaging enemies at short range or for stealthy takedowns.

3. Master the weapons.

Although most of the weapons in Black Squad are currently undergoing balance changes, it is still essential for you to become accustomed to the weapons. Snipers, as said before, are recommended for sharpshooters with its large hit box, ability to kill with a single shot in the upper torso, and its high accuracy.

Black Squad sub-machine guns also have large spray patterns, making them useful for close quarters battles. Explore more weapons in the game including machine guns, shotguns, pistols, grenades, assault rifles, and more.

4. Don’t hack.

A hack is always bad for the game. Playing with hacks ruin other players’ experience.
