Tactics using FAMAS
Normal matches
- Use full-auto mode in close battle and burst-fire mode for long range battle.
- Always reload when you have free time as its magazine size is designed for 1 on 1 battle only.
- Aim for chest as its spray pattern is straight upward which can end enemy with headshot.
Team Deathmatch/Deathmatch
- Use burst-fire mode in medium-to-large maps.
- Burst-fire mode serves lower recoil. This is good to score a headshot when an enemy pops his/her head out of nowhere in long range because its upward stray pattern.
- Firing in full automatic while running makes this gun really inaccurate.
- A little strafe or mouse control while firing in automatic will give a chance to score a headshot because its upward spray pattern.
- Frequent reload is needed due to low magazine size.
- In Deathmatch modes, firing in automatic is fully recommended since players keep respawning in different places.
Zombie Mods
- In Zombie Mods, a 25 rounds FAMAS can deals 650 ~ 1300 damage to zombies. Normal zombie is recommended as a target if you are using this rifle.
- Switch to secondary weapon when facing a berserk Normal Zombie because it has low stun power.
- If a player attempts a headshot with this rifle. It is recommended when encountering Deimos, Ganymede, Stamper, and Heavy zombie due to their big heads but keep an eye on the remaining bullets and the distance.
Zombie Scenario
- Zombie Scenario starts with $7500 as default dollar (Normal). If a player purchases a FAMAS, the player will uses $2250, giving the balance of $5300. The ammunition spent for the FAMAS reaches $1200 for 600 rounds, making the dollar left $4100. The dollar left can be used for Kevlar and Helmet or HE Grenade or pistol ammunition or health and attack power upgrade or just keep it for later use.
- Always upgrade "Attack Power" after buying this weapon if a player less care to his/her health. This weapon is also the hard one to attempt a piercing technique when encountering a crowd of zombies. So, upgrading "Attack Power" will increase the chance to pierce a crowd of zombies.
- Attempting a burst-fire mode is not recommended due to the unlimited respawn of zombies.

Trivia
- This weapon cannot be fired underwater.
- "Clarion" means trumpet in French.
- Unlike most bullpup weapons with a top charging handle, the FAMAS' charging handle does not reciprocate since its model and animations is taken from original Counter-Strike. The same also happens with its Battle variant.
- When reloading, the ejected magazine is still slightly visible when the player looks down far enough. Note that the bullet texture in the magazine is drawn in 2D.
