M4 chase
Don't chase it
Short answer
The hour is not an M4. Dying on a runway for a platform is a highlight with extra steps.
Also: m4 · m4a1
How it works
M4-style platforms are rare on official and loud when they speak. Ammo is picky.
What to do
If you find one, feed it or dump it. Don't tour every airfield as a religion.
Don't
Don't invent a spawn rate.
