Tactics facing G3SG-1 user[]

  • Use sniper rifle and hide somewhere but shoot accurately.
  • Flank the user if you do not have any long range weapons.
  • As a G3SG-1 user can kill an opponent with just 1~2 shots, the opponent must have good skill and time to kill them before they get killed.
  • Stay calm and never retreat when facing G3SG-1 users as they can do wallbang to kill the retreating players.
  • Lower their health with HE Grenade first if you have one.
  • Throw a flashbang or use Smoke grenade and strike the users.

Trivia[]

  • This rifle was extremely popular in Team Deathmatch back in the days due to its easy use and high damage, which might've resulted the user to be frowned upon by other players. However, due to emergence of more powerful weapons, it is rarely used by the players now.
    • Cheaters (especially wallhackers) and new players favored this weapon in all regions because of reasons above. Same goes with its counter-terrorist counterpart SIG SG550.
    • Players who used this weapon in game could've been kicked out of the room. Also happens to its counter-terrorist counterpart SIG SG550.
  • Some Counter-Terrorist Bots may pick this weapon up during sniper-only Original matches.
