    Buy the level 1 increased ammo and level 1 zoom for EVERY vehicle default weapon and equip those upgrades on all of them.
    They are only 1 cert each, and I cannot tell you how annoying it is to jump into a BR 26's Sunderer's default turret to find that it has NO zoom option. IT'S ONE CERT!

    I know I'm late to the party here, but if I could make a suggestion to new players it would be this: decide how you want to progress in the game before committing to a class other than Engineer/Medic. The reason for this is that the Engineer and the Medic are two of the best classes for generating Certs (the free-to-play currency used to buy weapons and class upgrades.) Now if you're a seasoned FPS player and you just like to frag, then I would suggest kitting out the Heavy Assault or the Light Assault class.
    If you're new to the game, or if you're like me and just NOT a true-blue FPS beast, then I would strongly suggest getting upgrades for the medic AND engineer. Both of these classes offer support roles that don't require MLG-twitch-headshot-kills to generate a good deal of certs. Also, Medic weapons in general are quite strong and can be used in a supporting role due to their damage/high rate of fire. You can scavenge kills and get partial kill participation like nobody's business.
    The reason I suggest both medic AND engineer is because that way you'll have your supporting roles covered, and therefore will have a LOT of ways to make Certs depending on the situation. Breaching a room and it's a complete blood bath? Invest in the Medic revive-grenade, throw one into the room, res 10+ people and get like 4-5 Certs for your trouble. Got a couple of MAX units nearby fighting hard? invest in your Engineer repair tool (to enable you to repair for longer stints at a time before waiting for the tool to cool down), drop an ammo box, and just attach that I.V.-bag of Certs to your veins.
    This method requires more initial cert investment, but it will enable to you make more Certs in more situations without requiring you to be a crack shot. Also, you will run into situations where there are too many Medics, not enough Engineers, and vice versa. And if you can plug that hole, you'll rake in the Certs. Also your fellow players will fucking love you. Repair a MAX (or revive a downed MAX as a Medic) and you will be adored.

      The Cloaker is a more difficult class to play. There are a lot of things about the game you need to know to not just get slaughtered. One of your biggest problems as a Cloaker is that one of the things you can do - penetration - takes a lot of time ... which as a beginner is better devoted to killing people in a more straight forward manner. The other thing is - they change things - and you really need to know what's changed in operating this class. Just stick with the basic sniper weapon here until you know the game better. You want a position where you can duck behind cover when your cloak depletes and it's much better to be behind your own troops so that they can somewhat protect you. There are certain key transitions you need to get down as a sniper.
      While down behind cover - let your cloak recharge.
      Once charged - move quickly into firing position
      Get your scope up - and quickly select a target
      Hold your breath
      Cloak off
      Try for a head shot - if not NC you need to quickly double tap them.
      Drop back behind cover and let your cloak recharge.

    I think you failed to mention, that the Engineer should upgrade their Ammo Box ability in "Engineer Certs".
    Upgrading it gives the box a radius, in which people can resupply from (which it previously didn't have) and at max level, you can put down 2 boxes at the same time.
    Resupply XP and their ribbons are a major income source in this game! Without them, its like playing Medic and only healing, but never ever reviving players.

    5:10 before considering to spend 750 serts on Deluxe Implant Pack, I would recomend doing novice tier derectives for all classes (aside from heavy assault which can be a bit tricky with those launcher kills). Each of them would give you a Novice Implant Pack with 2 implants, so 4*2=8 in total. This will also make you somewhat familiar with each class in the real battle.

      ​@@miguelrivas4649 You can find derectives in the menu (just press "Esc" and find the tab that looks like a star in a circle). Those are basicly challenges wich you can complete to get derective poins (they are account wide and seen by other players) as well as some exclusive rewards like armour skins, weapons and implant packs. Unlike some other game mechanics (like leveling and gaining certs) those are truly F2P and cannot be done by spending real money.

      @@miguelrivas4649 Indeed, ttk is quite big in this game. Never had ps4 so im not familiar with how do you even aim properly. But if you do manage to track your targets, try using bolt-action sniper rifle. Its a one hit kill in the head (except for heavy assaults with overshields and maxes) or 2 hit kill in the body. Originaly I got hooked by playing infiltrator, but other classes can also be deadly if you land all the shots. Try aiming to the upper chest/head area and shooting with 3-5 round bursts. Holding the trigger only quite works at close range. If you are a vehicle guy, i would recomend getting rocket pods on ESF (1 seat plane), this would increase your KD alot.

    "... which is a whole different play style". I think that's the feature that's kept my interest for 6+ years. I can sit down and play 4 or 5 unique styles that I know I enjoy or I can try something new by experimenting with a different load out. When I started out I looked for the big battles in bases and played medic. Easy and fast certs. Finding a Max and following them around as an engineer was easy certs. Those two roles also got me the necessary experience to learn the flow of battle in the most common bases. At some point it occurred to me that I could get around that flow with a light assault and really wreck havock in the enemy lines. That became my favorite play style even though my certs per minute suffered, my k/d suffered and my kpm suffered, but It's fun and that's what counts for me. Once I figured that out I spent some money to buy weapons with DBC that supported those styles. I didn't want to waste certs on them, but more than that; I like the game, so why not show some love for the devs?

    If you like to play as one class, but want to have a good variety of tasks and roles to perform, and a variety of enemy types you can handle decently, the engineer is the class for you.
    If you like to primarily focus on taking down vehicles, and/or providing suppressing fire for your advancing allies, the heavy assault is your class.
    If you like to avoid big engagements, or avoid being in the middle of them, while picking off stragglers, or keep enemies stumbling or behind cover, or preparing a point for your allies ahead of them, the infiltrator is for you.
    Also, I'm gonna mention something Cyrious should have mentioned about the infiltrator. This is important.
    If you equip the stalker cloak, *you cannot use your primary weapon.* keep that in mind.
    If you like to play the role of distraction for your enemy, giving your allies precious seconds free from enemy fire, including vehicles? Light assault is for you. (If you're really good you can even destroy some vehicles with this class)
    If you want to bring the big guns, heavy armor, to reinforce your allies that are pushing a point, a MAX suit has your name on it.
    And last, but far from least. If you want to keep your allies alive, return them to life, and keep them in the fight, the medic is your class. Those who have played the medic in Team Fortress 2 will feel _right at home_ with the Medic's revive tool in Planetside 2. Plus your healing grenades, revive grenades, and more.
    Also, let me be clear. *Medics can revive MAXes.* Most people still don't realize this. So please share it, mention it in proximity chat, and spread the word.

    Definitely a good idea to master one class while learning the game- it saves having to figure out multiple playstyles at the same time. But you did leave out one bit of information that gets asked about in a lot of /yells: Stalker cloak disables your primary weapon. Also, two C4 won't destroy a Sunderer, but will get it down to the point where one Rocklet magazine will likely finish it off. (But a shield Sunderer's shield will absorb the entire blast from C4 or tank mines triggered all at once, even if it's more damage than the shield has health.)

    Start as engineer. Most point gain possible. Ammo and repairing is a team saver. Buy the Gauss Compact and put the grenade launcher on it, it is a very strong AT and AP weapon on direct hits couples with AT mines well. Buy the AV mana turret, it can one shot light aircraft and is great at supporting allies. Free sunderer events are common, buy the vehicle ammo resupply and stay near tanks. When your team moves, move with them and get free points from respawns and resupplies. Best cert gain for new players. Keeping teammates up with ammo and armor is invaluable in big fights. Double down on MAXes, throw down a ammo pack and repair the max, watch the points rain.

    Good intro vid for the new people. This is a very difficult topic to tackle, because everyone has their own preference of play style and it is therefore impossible to make a standard across the board recommendation for initial cert purchases. I know it's impossible to cover everything in one video but you left something important out - level one deployment shield for the sunderer. It only costs 50 certs and adds 2500 health that can regenrate while it's deployed. New players can earn a lot of certs from a well placed sunderer and the deployment shield makes it nearly unkillable.

    Just let everyone be your personal shield and play in whatever way you want lol, have been playing this game since 6+ years ago (not continuously but still) I never worry of leveling or upgrading something first because it will completely change your gameplay, it wont. If you suck at FPS you will continue sucking at FPS, it all comes naturally, just play the game, practice, if you die big deal, respawn and continue. Upgrade what you think would give you more fun. In the end, in a big 180+ fight, one single character won't switch the battle, this is a team kind of game.
    What comes handy though, is knowing all this information upfront, to know what each thing does and how it affects your character :) then you decide what to do.

    I've decided to focus on Engineer this time around, got the repair tool to 5, though I have medic repair tool to 5 and did get the revive grenades (they're not bad, even with how infrequently I use them)...but, engineer's passive and what armor to use...sounds like you recommend the recharge default one for most play, but nanoweave for aggressive play or for those in situations where they need the reduction.
    interesting. i'll keep it all in mind. engineers are good cert farms early on

      Carapace gives you 1000 health, rather than 500. Vampire gives you 300 health back everytime you kill someone with a knife. So I can run around in the crowd, get shot a lot, but get my health back everytime I kill someone. More survivability than a little bit of invisibility.

    For me the nsx amaterasu knife has always been a life saver when I was grinding for my now wielded eclipse in vs faction since it had unlimited ammo and could damage light armored vehicles.
    I used it as secondary and I would normally use it as sort of a survival knife and for some cheeky stealth kills since I had a jetpack and would hide in trees.
    But now since my primary has an infinite ammo pool I'm not sure how to use any other knife now since I've been using the nsx amaterasu knife for so long 😂
    So I basically have 2 unlimited ammo pool weapons and if they add battlerifles to the asp for jetpack class I'll be a 1 man army!

You didn't mention you cant use primary while stalking, you did not (wtf) mention upgrading the ammo pack of engineers.. Whyyy.

      Hey man, thanks for the feedback.
      - The fact that you can't use primary with stalking, doesn't affect certs, only reason it didn't come up.
      - Upgrading the engineer ammo pack is listed in the spreadsheet. Sorry it didn't make it into the discussion.
      - Thought I talked about engie shield regen a lot, maybe I cut that bit.
      - Ambushers with shotgun is pretty expensive to get setup really well, but I did list unlocking Ambushers in the spreadsheet.
      - I talk about cool things, because people will be drawn to them and have questions. By bringing them up, but recommending against them, I answer the question on if its worth spending on them early, but they now know its cool and maybe after 15.

    • @CMDRCyrious
      @CMDRCyrious  5 лет назад

      The resist shields damage reduction does affect headshots. Even though headshot damage isn't reduced, the overall health increase from the other overshields makes them equivalent to resist shield with just how much damage you can take.
      So with resist you take less damage, but only have 1000 health. With the other ones you take more damage but have a bigger health pool.

    • @GWRaynor
      @GWRaynor 5 лет назад

      The NS Operatives faction was designed for experienced players that don't particularly care which faction they're fighting for. The NSX series weapons that they start with are typically very gimmicky and many are considered to be subpar compared to simpler and more practical weapons. The older standard NS weapons (such as the NS-11A you mentioned) are better for most situations. They tend to have lower than average DPS, but make up for it with higher ADS movement speed, great accuracy, low recoil, and a ton of attachment options.

    Everyone says don't spend certs on weapons, but after i got the warden NC dmr + some attachments like holo scope and grip for basically every class (a playstile that i bring from battlefield) i was doing sooo much better in every situation, much more than when i got other stuff. I was really surprised i could actually 1v1 a vanu and play a role in firefights more than just repairing a max and spamming ammo boxes and get sniped 1 sec after getting in a turret (now have the auto turret), even before i maxed out the repair kit.
    Also the "revert all purchases" prompt was actually useful as i bought the wrong rocket launcher on accident, now i have an anti air wich is really useful when we don't have defenses and a veichle lock one. At least i can push away armor from a lot further ranges, and finish harassers that retreat when they have low health. To me it makes a lot more sense to get these weapons instead of upgrading a shield or primary as i rarely use heavy in infantry battles.
    I rarely snipe so i go hacker for now, with light assault the starting weapons are really good and fit the playstile, so only got a couple c4, and if i want to go short range such as in a biolab battle i have an almost full medic healer device but with a shotgun.
    Maxes seems to cost too much to upgrade, but right now my shotgun max is really situational, and i end up wasting 450 nanites most of the times.
    Now i'm not sure if i wanna go repair sunderer or stealth sunderer. I'm usually the one that pushes a sundy in the backlines and gets killed by one harasser that sees me, i would love to go invisible, but i also like the idea of being able to go in armor battles and hold position without having to repair stuff on foot, plus more free certs.
    My advice is that if you are better with some types of weapons, go in the vr continent and try a couple but buy only one, only if you think you'll do better.

    I have to disagree on the infiltrator starting weapons. The VS "Spectre" is an insanely good mid range weapon, and to some extent - close range. It has no recoil, no bullet drop, the bullets go in the same spot. You can basically spam it. Kill streaks are amazingly easy to do with the "Spectre". It's a very underrated weapon.

    Since you haven't got into vehicles a lot, I'm aware you haven't got into Construction for the Ant. If you wanted to commit to that playstyle, even as a new player, would it be worth it to get your first structures within your first 15 ranks? And which ones?

      @attackpig 5 лет назад +1

      I recommend new players avoid purchasing construction items until a much higher rank. Construction is VERY expensive. It will drain your certs quickly with very little return on the investment. You also won't be able to defend your player made base if you skip certing into your infantry classes and vehicles, and I can gurantee it WILL be attacked.
      When you do reach a point where you can cert into construction I would recommend starting with the spawn tube and the router, and then the aircraft terminal when you can afford it. A well placed router will quickly turn a losing fight into an unstoppable victory for your faction and you gain experience for each person that spawns on it.
