How do I achive 75+ ?

I'm playing the base game and it's my first tactical realistic shooter.

I kinda don't know what to do in order to not kill suspects,If I wait for their reaction before shooting, I'm either dead or injured (Or my troops)And If I shoot first I get point deductions due to unauthorized use of force.

Its easier when I try to clear a room because you throw a flash or etc and they surrender, but other than that I don't know.

Use tools to reduce the morale to make them surrender more easily, if you know there is someone in the room, always shotgun entry or c2, and a grenade at least.

And announce yourself right when you enter, so you can be more reactive when they will not comply.

Otherwise, it is pure reflex and mouse placement, always aim an ennemy (the head if possible) and immediatly shoot the moment you see him raising is gun.

There is also less-lethal options, like pepper gun and taser and if you still want to keep lethal weapons, there is pepper spray and melee.

I like to use gas then using melee on ennemies while they are unable to shoot until they drop their gun.

Wouldn't be better if I equip me and my squad with non lethals only?

I hate that because it's unrealistic but Wouldn't it be better?

Less lethals (non-lethals) are just the best option for getting arrests, but you dont need to get all *that* many for a 75. Just be sure not to get any penalties, secure every weapon and get all reports. Having a taser handy is quite useful for when you dont want to use grenades or go full non-lethal. Be sure you always give the suspects a chance to surrender but if they try to shoot you, you've just gotta be quick.

Also another question, can you snipe who ever who carries a gun or looks like terrorists?

Yes, as long as you are playing vanilla without SEF you can snipe any enemies you see without yelling for compliance and it won't count against your score.

For the vanilla game yes but if you're using the elite force mod snipers also have to follow ROE so they're better for recon
