Any tips for a new player?


(Sandman77) #1

What kinda setup should I go with? get Sniper, get someone else? Which squads combinations are good against npc and persons?

At the moment I got sniper, healer, redhair fella and my main. Should my next soldier be one with machien gun or missiledroid?

Any play tips?

Hey Sandman77

There are plenty of tips and yet there are many in the forum - just watch out for them and search in the threads.

I cannot recommand much to you just - play what YOU like. I have about 8 squad-members yet but I mainly use 3 - where the commander is always in :wink:
It is always nice if you start with one map. From your 20 games play 5, 10 or even 15 always 1 map - don’t play too much on one or it might get boring once in a while - and get good at exactly that map. Get out one setup that fits your character the most. If your aggressive - be aggressive. If you are annoying - be annoying. If you want to be like “SURPRISE” - be surprising. If you want to be Rambo - be Rambo.

There is a huge variety of squad-members in there and yet a huge amount of possible squad-setups.
Each and every character has it’s pros and cons - you may figure that on your own.
There is yet no OVERPOWERED class, setup or weapon in there - we would have found out and reported that :open_mouth:
So … use your imagination.

I came in and got the setup I yet like the most from the beginning on : Dave, Commander(artillery) and SneakyPete. I played on one map [I do not want to tell what map it is ppl could start not playing on that map agaisnt me :stuck_out_tongue: ] and made up plenty good moves and counters on that map.

The game still has many Rock-paper-scissors things - there is ( in theory) no “best choice” in RPS
tbh there are chars that are not played too often ( like Suds) and cheap in the market but that does not mean they are weak.
These chars are mostly good in 20 /26 pt games.

SOOO:
The best thing I could tell you is: play play play. If you want to learn quick and fast somehow documentate your games // win/lose // your most common mistakes // bad turns + good turns. // positions for special things
try out as much as you can and find your personal playing.
You can even copy your usual setup from other games - prefered heroes/ classes / strategy / weapons.

Hope you have fun in the game
hope my comment helped a bit :slight_smile:

happy hollidays.

with friendly regards

I just stick to one map until I’ve mastered it when I play online.

Well so far I gotten my main a better weapon and I love the wall you can place at will. I need to get a 5th Soldier so I can play the hard solo levels so I am still poundering. I think I will end up getting an offensive player and or with medic skill.

Airstrikes are awesome to knock people out of cover.


(Catnadian) #6

And knocking snipers out of retaliation range, and knocking enemies out of Angela’s heal aura, and knocking people into your own sniper’s range, and knocking your own troops closer to the enemy so they can use their AP for firing…

Airstrike is just plain good. Never not use it.

My loadout is two medic Gus the walking tank and Angela the one with the area heal and the cap all I do is bunker down and heal for days but sniper counter this so well genacide… Well that what I do


(Sandman77) #8

(Sandman77) #9

Come get some lol any time any where just hit me up


(Ranger007) #11

i didnt realize the prices of characters and weapons are in price of coins “or” rad bux untill this moment…i thought it was coins+radbux. So i ended up passing all the levels with only 4 characters max at 20 squad pts(even the 26pts challenge)…quite challenging!!! I was just an idiot, nowthat i know i can select my fifth XP


(KopralJono) #12

I still don’t get it this game, I just play and try to win :smiley:

Whats a good time might sound cheseey but it to never give up even if the other person team counter your off the back or if they get frist boold you can still win i won alot of matches when i was down in the mud the other persons get cocky most of the time if they think they have a uper hand help you they do move they normal wont and slip up but that just some time lol but still just keep try till the very end


(Sandman77) #15

Oh and important tip! The game is about capture and defend 5 rounds not Counterstriking till all are dead. :wink:


(Boomzilla) #16

That’s the key. Killing the enemy is nice, but you have to watch the score. If you can build up 3 pts and still have a healthy team defending the scoring box, it puts your opponent in a tough spot.


(Sandman77) #17

Bingo Boomzilla. :slight_smile: :slight_smile: :slight_smile:

(Lokster86) #19

Hey guys im looking for friends to add haha, this game is really fun and simple, my style is using engineers and heavies to hold the rocket and just sit back and defend


(Desparado) #20

You can add me if you want!
Search my forum name in the app.

I believe there is a thread with several consistent players.

As well as my stat thread, where i’m attempting to compile stats and people who play consistently.

Both are in this forum, Discussion.
