The battlefields in Delta Force are chaotic at the best of times and if an enemy round doesn’t zip you in the face, then something from up above just might. The Call-In system in the game is a little barebones and expensive, but in the right hands, at the best moment, you can be pretty devastating with it.

One particularly powerful tool is the Artillery Barrage. These big blasts can toss aside troops and vehicles like they’re toys, and on maps with choke points it can be utterly devastating. For those looking to get their hands on some big bangs, here’s how to call in Artillery in Delta Force.
What Is Artillery In Delta Force?
Artillery is part of the games Call-In system that allows players to activate a special ability in the form of a tactical strike of some sort. There’s smoke, missiles, a vehicle drop and of course an artillery barrage. However, these can’t be triggered constantly as there are prerequisites for use.
Once its set off though, it will absolutely batter an area in high explosive rounds that can still clip you with damage if you’re hiding near a roof or a door when a salvo hits. However, it can’t reach enemy operators hiding in a tunnel, or be used on a map that’s underground. Worth noting is that missile strikes still hit subterranean targets, but this may be patched out in the future as it seems like a bug.

If you’re wondering what settings you need to lower to get the highest amount of FPS in Delta Force, we have you covered.
How To Use Artillery In Delta Force
To gain access to a call-in you need to earn points in-game during a match. This can be done incredibly easily, all you have to do to earn those cash points is participate in the round. Earn kills, capture objectives, supporting team mates with suppression shots, assists, resupplies and so on. All of these positive actions add points to your total, plus it helps your team in the long run.
For artillery strikes you need to earn at least $7000, and there has to be no other strikes ongoing at that time. Once you reach that amount, open the call-in menu by pressing the button its bound to. For PC users this is the five key on your hotbar. Hold the button down, then move your mouse or stick to the “Artillery Barrage” option and press the activation button that’s displayed.
There’s a limit to how many Artillery Strikes can be set off at one time. The Call-In menu will say the max has been reached, and a pop-up will tell you when it’s free again.
Once you’ve done this you’ll be pulled into a new screen as you character opens a portable heavy-duty laptop case. You’ll see a representation of the game map on the screen with your cursor changing to a circle where the strike will target.
Place this over an area that you want to saturate with explosives and then hold the selection button down. The wheel will disappear at first, but just keep holding the button down until the wheel fills itself back up again. A notification will appear and the barrage will begin.
This is the point where you start running away, because the bombs will begin to fall in a few seconds.
