Sniper: Silent Ridge

Gaming Terms to Know

Cover System

A mechanic where you take shelter behind objects (walls, crates, vehicles) to avoid enemy fire. You peek out to shoot and duck back to reload.

Reload Cancel

An advanced technique where you interrupt the reload animation to fire sooner, saving valuable split-seconds in close combat.

ADS

Aim Down Sights — zooming in through a weapon's sight or scope for more accurate shots, at the cost of slower movement speed.

Recoil

The backward movement of a weapon when fired. Higher recoil means your crosshair jumps more — controlling it through burst-fire or mouse pull-down is a key skill.
