Battlefield 3 Premium Guide › Battlefields › Close Quarters/Gun Master

Aftermath - Talah Market

Open this map in a new window

In Gun Master, most of the map is accessible so you have plenty of room to maneuver through a variety of environments. But as usual, knowing where to go with your current weapon plays a big role in getting the jump on the competition. When using close-quarter weapons like the pistols, PDWs, or shotguns, patrol the narrow alleys between the Square and Park to score some easy point-blank kills. The Courtyard and the area south of the Square are also good locations for close-quarter fire fights. Don’t enter the Square until you have access to carbines or assault rifles. Otherwise you may find yourself at a disadvantage when engaging opponents at intermediate and long range. When you gain access to sniper rifles, vacate the map’s center and move to the eastern or western flanks. The area around the Park and Main Street offer the longest sight lines. You can pick off opponents from great distances. Finally, return to the map’s center when it’s time to score kills with explosives and the knife. The alleys between the Park and Square offer plenty of blind corners where you can ambush your victims and hopefully gain a win in the process.
