Cave Hardpoint
This point is one big kill box for whoever is in it. There’s no cover in the Cave and the only way to avoid getting shot from a long distance is to move toward the other side of Cave. Therein lies the problem: moving to either side of Cave may protect you from potential attacks on one end, but will completely expose you on the other end. Your best bet for holding this Hardpoint is to use smoke grenade on the entrances (one end will suffice if that’s all you have) and lay down suppressing fire on the other side.
If you’re trying to dislodge defenders, just stand a fair distance away and look into Cave with a scoped weapon. You’re nearly guaranteed to see at least one player on the Hardpoint. Grenades work quite well for dealing with multiple enemies.
Ruins Hardpoint
Go prone on top of the elevated platform, or huddle up in one of the corners at its base. Your greatest threat will come from the Column Ramp, so keep your gun trained in that direction.
If you’re attacking, approach from the Column Ramp and use grenades on the corners of the platform’s base to dislodge any hiding enemies. You should be able to see anyone on top of the platform if you’re at the tip of the Column Ramp. A Glide Bomb Scorestreak can also work wonders for clearing the area.
Bunker Hardpoint
This is a very defensible point, but its enclosed nature makes it prone to grenade attacks. Guard the doorways to lock attackers out and keep close watch on the north-facing window; it will get you killed more often than anyone would like to admit.
For attackers, get grenades into the bunker and use Scorestreaks like Molotov Cocktails and the Flamethrower to swiftly dislodge defenders.
When attacking, try to dislodge enemies from the point by aiming through the window on the North side. This small window is often overlooked as a threat and can often make the difference in retaking the hardpoint.
East Road Hardpoint
You won’t get a lot done on this Hardpoint without teammates. The Hardpoint is enclosed and there is little cover within that enclosure. If an enemy walks toward any one of the four different paths into the Hardpoint, you’ll be thoroughly exposed. Holding this point will depend on your teammates’ ability to watch angles you can’t cover. If your team isn’t in sync, this point will easily be lost.
