\u258d<\/strong><\/span>Combat Tips<\/h2>\n

As you can see, most of the\u00a0styles offer unique playstyles and their viability is not that important. Most styles are balanced and preference should be given to the enjoyment you find either playing from range or close-quarters. That being said, here are some general\u00a0tips to help you\u00a0survive on the battlefield!<\/p>\n

\u25a0\u00a0 Auto-aim is your best friend<\/strong><\/span>
\nThe First Soldier allows auto-firing of weapons just by hovering your crosshairs on an enemy. This is vital when playing on a smartphone device as opposed to emulating the game and using a controller.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u25a0 Chopper Time Limit<\/strong><\/span>
\nWhen playing solo, you have unlimited time to board the typical battle royale aircraft and drop into a certain location. However, when playing with a squad you will only have 1 minute to prepare. Be sure to get everything you need during this time.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

\u25a0\u00a0 Find Better\u00a0Weapon<\/strong><\/span>
\nUpgraded weapons can be found from; Buildings, Player Loots, Vending Machines, and Supply Drops.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u25a0 Increase Skill Mastery<\/strong>
\nThis can be increased by simply using each style in combat. However, you can speed up the process by getting kills, completing challenges, and winning your matches.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u258d<\/strong><\/span>Which Fighting Style Will You Choose?<\/h2>\n

That’s all the information we have on the Fighting Styles\u00a0of\u00a0FFVII The First Soldier. However, as you play through the game, be sure to come back and let others know how to emerge victoriously on the battlefield.<\/p>\n
