The '''FAMAS''' is a budget assault rifle exclusive to the Counter-Terrorist side in [[Counter-Strike 2]]. It is the cheapest CT rifle and provides a cost-effective option when the [[Economy System|economy]] does not allow for an [[M4A4]] or [[M4A1-S]].

The '''FAMAS''' is the budget CT rifle with an optional burst-fire mode.


== Overview ==
== Overview ==
At $2,050, the FAMAS is the entry-level CT rifle, significantly cheaper than the [[M4A4]] ($3,100) and [[M4A1-S]] ($2,900). It features a unique burst-fire mode alongside its standard automatic fire, giving players flexibility in engagement range. While it lacks the damage and accuracy of the premium CT rifles, the FAMAS provides much better performance than SMGs and pistols against armored opponents.
At $2,050, the FAMAS fills the gap when CTs can't afford an M4. It features a unique 3-round burst fire mode alongside full auto.


The FAMAS is commonly purchased on force-buy rounds or when the CT economy is recovering from a series of losses.

== Usage Tips ==
* The FAMAS '''burst-fire mode''' fires 3 rounds rapidly and is effective at long range.
* At '''$2,050''', it is ideal for '''force-buy rounds''' when you cannot afford an M4.
* The 25-round magazine is '''5 fewer than the M4A4''', so trigger discipline matters.
* '''Armor penetration''' (70%) matches the M4 rifles, meaning it performs reasonably against armored opponents.
* '''Switch between burst and auto''' based on engagement range: burst for long range, auto for close/medium.
* The FAMAS cannot one-shot headshot helmeted opponents, similar to the [[M4A4]] and [[M4A1-S]].


== Strategy ==
The FAMAS is the budget rifle for Counter-Terrorists, offering a cheaper alternative to the M4 variants at $2050. It features a unique 3-round burst mode in addition to automatic fire, making it versatile across different engagement ranges.
=== When to Buy ===
Buy the FAMAS on force-buy rounds when you cannot afford an M4 but want a rifle over an SMG. The $1050 savings (vs. M4A4) allows you to buy full utility. The FAMAS is also viable on half-buy rounds as a bridge between eco and full-buy.
=== Aim Techniques ===
* '''Burst Mode''' — Right-click for 3-round burst fire, which is extremely accurate at medium to long range. Each burst is tight and controlled.
* '''Auto for Close Range''' — Switch to automatic at close range for higher DPS when spray control is less critical.
* '''First Bullet Accuracy''' — Decent but not exceptional — avoid long-range duels against AK-47s or AWPs when possible.
=== Engagement Range ===
The burst mode makes the FAMAS surprisingly effective at medium-to-long range. At close range, automatic fire is preferred. The 25-round magazine is adequate but requires reload management in extended fights.
== Spray Pattern ==
In automatic mode, the FAMAS recoil climbs vertically then shifts right. In burst mode, each 3-round burst has minimal recoil, making it the preferred mode for precision at range.
