Survival Mode Tips

Get An LMG

LMG in Survival Mode

LMGs have the highest ammo capacity in the game. Use them well by earning money and buying Magazine upgrades for them. Get the ones that allow you to carry 200 rounds per magazine. More ammo is more time surviving in Survival Mode.

Weapon Upgrades Are Dependent On Your Weapon Level

Weapon upgrades and weapon level

Weapons that you carry in Survival Mode can be upgraded during breaks. However, only attachments that have been unlocked can be bought. Take note of this before jumping into Survival mode as attachments play a key part in ensuring your survival.

Destroy Choppers For More Cash

Destroy Enemy Choppers

You can hit enemy choppers that drop enemy soldiers into the battlefield. Destroying it rewards you with cash for doing a combo and also helps by instantly eliminating a dozen of enemy troops.

Refill Ammo Using Ammo Crates

Use Ammo Crates

Save money for your team by purchasing an Ammo Crate instead of individually getting the $250 ammo refill. This saves your team $500 in total as each crate gives 4 Ammo Refills, making it easier to purchase more powerful upgrades and Killstreaks.

Headshots Are Recommended

Headshots are recommended

While it might be hard to pull off especially during the chaos of a fight, headshots deal more damage even to armored enemies. You can save ammo and save time by consistently aiming for the head. Note that Juggernauts are immune to this.

Get The Juggernaut Killstreak

Juggernaut killstreak

The latter waves will spawn Juggernauts and suicide bombers in large numbers. Survive the waves by using a Juggernaut killstreak to increase your defense and arm yourself with an infinite ammo minigun.

Earn The Juggernaut Back By Killing

Costing $7000 to purchase, the Juggernaut killstreak is the second to the most expensive Killstreak you can buy. Earn its cost back by firing up your minigun and eliminating enemies by the dozens.

Limited HUD & Movement While Using Juggernaut

Limited HUD while in Juggernaut

Note that your movement and on-screen information will be limited once you don on the Juggernaut armor. With that, it is recommended that you go to a good position first before activating the Juggernaut.

I call total B.S. on everybody who voted "3 hours or more!"

Seriously, your name isn't even going to be displayed, so you're not showing off to anybody. Just be honest.

The likelihood of there being three votes for "3 hours or more!" but none for 1-2 hours or 2-3 hours is very slim to none.
