AUG

Edit on GitHub

The Steyr AUG, known in-game as the AUG, is a bullpup assault rifle utilizing the 5.56mm ammunition. It was added to the game in the v0.9.0 "Behind Close Doors" update on July 30th, 2023.

Background

The AUG was designed by Steyr Arms in 1977 entering service in the same year. Since then, it has been a popular choice for militaries worldwide, first exporting to the US in 1980 and other countries later. It and its variants are still in service in many modern armies.

Strategies

Using

• The AUG has a somewhat high spread when moving, so try not to run and gun too much.
  • However, don't stand in one spot either, as this makes you an easy target unless there is no chance of retaliation.
• It has a higher DPS than the AK-47 making it an effective counter, especially in close quarters where spread matters less
• If you have a more accurate weapon such as a DMR or sniper, you can use the AUG in close range or to finish your opponent off

Countering

• While you can rush with a high DPS close-range weapon such as a Micro Uzi to counter an AUG user, be mindful that the AUG can also be effective in close range.
• Outranging your opponent is a viable tactic due to the high moving spread of the AUG.
  • Snipers and DMRs can counter the AUG effectively.
  • Be sure to pick up a larger scope (e.g., 4x or 8x) for this strategy to work.

Obtaining

The AUG is a very common gun, being more common than the AK-47. It can be found in many Crates such as the Regular Crate and Flint/AEGIS Crates, as well as ground loot.
