Multiplayer[]

In multiplayer, the player obtains a pair of binoculars for scouting when the rank of Sergeant is reached. When the rank Sergeant is reached, the player can call in artillery strikes by using the binoculars and pressing the primary fire button. An artillery strike consists of 15 artillery shells that fall within a 850in radius every 2 seconds, making the whole artillery strike last for a duration of 30 seconds. Each artillery shell deals 2000 damage directly and causes explosive damage of 300-10 in a 500in radius, making it the largest explosion in the game. A single artillery strike will lay waste to bunkers, vehicles, and infantry alike, making it the single most devastating attack in the game.

At close range, binoculars can be used as a melee weapon, clubbing them in a downwards motion. It is important to note that this attack does far less damage than melee with any other weapon and will require several hits on an enemy to kill them. If the player makes a melee kill with the binoculars, a binocular icon appears in the kill feed instead of the normal melee icon.
