Securing & Confirming Enemy Combatants

Knowing the composition of enemy forces is vital to the survival of your Fire Team. The location and current composition of enemy forces is unknown unless you, as a Soldier, keep your Fire Team apprised of the current combat situation. When an enemy is incapacitated or neutralized, you will not receive the traditional death message from most FPS games. When you Confirm/Secure an enemy Soldier, it provides information on the scoreboard. It will provide their name, class role and equipment. When the enemy is confirmed, the player will receive a death message indicating who neutralized the target and with what weapon. An icon will also appear on BFT, communicating the location of the downed enemy.

Incapacitated enemies are still a threat to your team. If another enemy player is able to provide medical aid to an incapacitated enemy, they can be revived and return to the fight. When you find an incapacitated enemy, you must secure them. Once secured, you and your team will receive the same information for confirming an enemy. Harming or killing an incapacitated enemy is in direct violation of the Rules of Engagement and a violation of the Army Core Values.

When you approach an incapacitated or dead enemy, you will get a contextual prompt. To Confirm/Secure a downed enemy, press the space bar. You will then receive a death message and the scoreboard will be updated. In addition, the confirmed enemy will appear on the BFT.
