For NOOBS I'd recommend using the saw only in bastion (shield) mode unless at melee distances. Don't touch base building at all. Once you activate the refiners all hell will descend on it, so go in a fireteam. ANY class can operate a refinery but the operator class is best for it. Don't do it as a heavy. Extended mags for the heavy are a massive grind (Level 20) but worth it. You can die from fall damage but you can rappel down a cliff by directing your movement with wasd. The ease of any of this depends on your game level. One squad isn't man enough to do an infestation unless your squad is cohesive. The revive drone is on a timer (bottom right of your HUD).
For noobs I'd tell you just to stick with the MK 1 Morita until you get the Carbine. It's by far the best gun on the Bastion with his ability negating it's spread and recoil and still doing the job the SAW does but better. Perks also give it more ammo reserves and more ammo in the mag to, again, do the same job but better.
The SAW requires crouching, but I am not sure if noobs will be aware of that. Even if they do, I am not sure if they would even want to when the enemy is barreling down on them. So for noobs anyway, the starting Morita rifle is just fine until you get the Morita carbine. Then just switch to that.
The ammo perks, and the ammo economy in general, really needs a rework. If people don't come with the ammo resupplier then whenever a refinery spawns stupidly far from the base people run out of ammo either on the way to or the trip back with the canisters. The SAW gets it the worst with the least amount of ammo tied with the grenade launcher but being far less dangerous. 300 rounds go by real fast and both pistols aren't a good substitute to make up the difference.
Yes, it is nearly a necessity to carry ammo dispensers, for myself and others to use. This is bad because it means I can't choose anything else for the utility slot, especially healing. By default, this sort of puts the Operator class as the current meta because they can overcome that limitation with their healing drone. As for perks, the 50% larger magazine is a nice one to have, as it gives you not just more ammo capacity, but less time spent overall on reloading, which also improves your DPS, as well as survivability since bugs can't hurt you if they are staggered or dead. Between these two, I find myself no longer starving for ammo. I don't like the SAW, and it needs a buff somehow. Because it's a stand still and fight weapon, and ideally used in bastion mode, which sadly does literally nothing for the most dangerous part of the game, which is making a run for the extraction at the end. Literally, many Bastions don't make it because of this. Operators can get a steady trickle of healing and even self-revive. Hunters can just run fast and fly out of there. What do bastions have when running for their lives? Superior stand and fight? At the very least, the bastion cooldown needs to be halved or less. I don't know. Whatever it is, Bastion is like the worst in meta. Even the SAW requires that you at least courch and aim in to mitigate the wobbling. Perhaps I'll change my mind in horde mode, but who knows?
@@Pouncer_Fox The only reason I'd die running for extraction as Bastion is because everyone flees, leaving everyone else to die. Even squad mates. People are just too used to lone-wolf style gameplay when playing games.
@@Pouncer_Fox you can use the pistols on the run, they are highly effective too. but a saw is very effective when you are defending the base or the refineries
@13:39 yeah it is how it works out. You get more ammo per magazine, and you carry around the same amount of magazines. So more ammo in total makes sense.
Great video dude. Just one quick comment about building ammo dispensers inside a bunker. It would seem that when a bunker is destroyed, so are anything else that is built inside. I was in one game where that happened, and lost the ammo dispensers inside as well. Luckily, someone else also built their dispensers outside the bunker. Anyway, feel free to double check that, but if so, it might be better to build ammo dispensers outside, next to the bunker entrance instead.
Yes. When I recorded the video the meta was to place ammo dispensers inside. But it is better to place them just outside of the bunker. I look forward to seeing how else the meta changes around building as the community gets more experienced!
Very smart way to do it! Glad I found this game when my bro had it on his wishlist. :P. I remember watching the movie and I always wanted to play a game of Starship Troopers which I am so glad they did!! Doom Eternal should've done a co-op multiplayer.
Quick note, as any class you can (spam) jump onto the front part of the wall and immediatly vault over the middle part, so you cou get out without deconstructing, its just not wide enough knowledge at this time.
@@timvanderleest6150 no problem at all, I also thought that wall vaulting tip was super important. It changes gameplay immensely when you realize you don't have to run all around the outside of your teams base looking for a gate!

Meta for base building: triple up walls. First wall walkway on the inside of base then build a wall right behind it with the walkway facing out.(makes a very small gap that can be run across without falling thru). Third wall will be a ramp. This is where ammo fabs should be placed on top of the wall(support/hunter perk) and place a ammo box(base build) at the entrance to the ramp. Your bonus-is the activated ability of support(i believe it revives everyone within 25 to 30 meters). The drone is the secondary where it can revive/heal up to 3 times until it goes back on coolddown.
Then I triple delete them too because it doesn't matter the bugs get through regardless of all of that stupid building crap when all you need is a high point, an ammo supply and your people go back to back it's not that hard but look at you overcomplicating the f**k out of it!!!
The bugs will basically try to path straight to the ARC reactor, and destroy anything that gets in the way. So, the optimal base is one where the ARC reactor is protected from all sides with turrets and bunkers nearby. If the turrets are built in the center of each bunker, I notice that they almost never get damaged while the bunker stands. Use that combination to protect the ARC reactor within turret range. Between them, you can place your ammo boxes. An optimal base does not need to be huge in size, especially if you are playing the mission where you have to mine your own limited ore. Plus, when you pool all your players closer in a smaller base, helping each other with especially with all the medic drones nearby, becomes much easier and survivable. Now, I'm not saying it needs to be super tight. However, there have been plenty of bases that have failed, because they were built far too big, where even when I wanted to go help, I had to cross a big distance to get there. Lastly, depending on where the ARC reactor is located, I noticed that it really helps to just build around existing structures as much as possible. This is obvious, but it's still important enough to mention, and it is the fact that existing structures in the map are invincible. They don't break, so if you already have some existing rooftop nearby, just use that instead of building towers, especially if you are working with a limited amount of ore.
When you die, it resets utilities. Sometimes I just die to get back to defense faster when I was out in the boonies. One of the few little tricks I picked up from playing the past few days when I was desperate for ammo, didn't want to walk back to base, or got confused about where I should be. Just die. The jetpacks need to conserve more lateral momentum is one of my few complaints with the game.
I refuse to even play it because of the sweat lords that don't realize that this isn't warzone but a simple arcade game that sadly can't be enjoyed without team build it all coming along and telling you how to play your game session. I've lately been busy with the new upcoming direct control RTS called Silica which I picked up on Steam and tbh it's way better than extermination.
@16:37 well it is true you do not need gates, but its much easier and faster to go through open gates when bringing back cannisters in the low-threat build-up phase of the mission.
1. why not tell how to delete builds ? yes i know i can. but how to ? 2. you can also press 1. while caryring the cannister. and shoot.. and then press 6. to re equip the cannister. ( just learned it today).. hehe
Its far more satisfying to destroy them or delete them esp when you yourself really have a good idea for something, go to build it but can't because everyone else try harded the base design, yea I'm loving the ability to delete their sh*t and their reactions are so rewarding hearing them cry lmao wahh wahh just a damn video game.
Any chance you can do one that's even more elementary? I just came from my first game and I was totally lost. I didn't understand at all what was going on, and was just trying(and failing) not to die. Maybe play a game from the start with commentary as to what and why you're doing things? Just offering a complete newbs viewpoint if you are interested in making stuff to help new players. I will be learning by playing myself, game looks really good even if it's a bit overwhelming at first. But later people might find it useful to help get into the game, I know I would have.
If it matters then I was playing as an operator. Maybe things would have been simpler at first by just picking hunter or something. That's just jump and shoot, I think.
Yes, sure can. I mainly focus on guides and tips for players, so that kind of video sounds right up my alley. In the meantime, I can refer you to this video that is a bit more beginner friendly. Because even though my tips were intentioned for beginners, I realize now that they are more fit for an intermediate player. ruclips.net/video/upEdPPOHjeY/видео.html
@bjorn you’re probably a pro by now, but I made a walkthrough guide for the AAS game mode. If you’re still having trouble with some elements of the game, give it a watch! ruclips.net/video/-gwfu9MzK1Y/видео.html
To me, the Operator is undoubtedly the best class right now. It can do just about everything. This is an important tip in general for anyone reading, but do not run (yellow canister) gas. Once all the required gas is deposited, that triggers the last stand sequence, followed by extraction. The only way I have lost a game is when someone would deposit them too early, before the team is ready to defend themselves. Technically, you can run them and deposit all but the very last one. However, even then, there is always some helpful noob that would deposit it for you. So, whenever possible, I would discourage everyone to even run gas at all, until you are sure the base is done. Anyway, that is my rant disguised as a tip.
Extended Mags does not increase ammo counts by simply increasing it. it is simply a math calculation and working as intended. Normally Rifle carry 60 rounds per mag and have 10 mags totaling 600 rounds. extended mags turn 60 rounds into 90 rounds so all 10 mags have 90 rounds totaling 900 rounds. if you use bandoliers again, you can have extra 2 mags (180 rounds) totaling 1080 rounds. this also works on rocket launcher as we can have 4 rockets instead of 3 rockets. SAW normally have 150 rounds and 2 mags totaling 300 rounds can turn into 225 rounds with 3 mags totaling 675 rounds. Not recommended as it is more useful to get melee armor to survive longer in siege mode both outside base and in horde stage. for gunner, just crouch behind your shield wall, mark it, and leave it to your sniper teammates. your SAW is not going to do much at long range. so you don't have to worry too much about running out of ammo with both actives.
I’m aware of how it currently works. I only assume it’s not working as intended because the description of the perk says it increases magazine size by 50%, not ALL magazine es by 50%. That, coupled with the fact that bandolier adds extra mags but why would you need bandolier if you have extended mags as an option? It’s made almost completely obsolete which is poor game design. The final point is I’ve played dozens of fps games with extended magazine options for your gun. This is the ONLY game I’ve played where the extended magazine increase your weapons current loaded capacity and every magazine in your stockpile. In every other game, your total ammo remains the same, but concentrated now into a fewer number of magazines meaning you reload less. If OWI chose this route on purpose it’s not necessarily wrong, it’s just different than any other game design decision by any other studio. Take with that what you will.
@@JakoMacro I can understand your point. however, considering the bullet spongeness of the bugs, I think it is not entirely poor design. especially in higher difficulty. at least until the weakpoint multiplier is properly set up because currently the weakpoint doesn't do much. if you're considering the weight of ammo into account, 10 60-rounds mags is already a lot to take considering that our current real-world rifleman normally carry 7 30-round mags. since we don't mind the weight and we can already take 10 mags, why reduced the mag count to 7-8 and keep the total rounds the same? might as well just keep taking 10 extended mags in the same 10 slots of normal mags (when we don't consider the shape of the mags and we can't see it in the character screen anyway.). honestly in my view, when we can clearly ignore other limitations such as weight, shapes, mobility, etc and carry 10 extended mags together, why must we reduce the mag counts just to fit other standard game design in the market? btw, even with both perks on, I can only go for max 2 tasks with hawkeye in Arc Slam Normal difficulty before having to resupply. and this is normal.
@@amitakumaradasa6020 I think there’s a fine balance in ammo between incentivizing squad play and being self sufficient. The SAW definitely needs 3 mags baseline. Bandolier should give you two extra mags. That way if you play solo you can take both ammo perks and be okay to suppress bugs for an an entire cycle. If you play with friends you should be able to replace ammo perks with something more valuable. That’s how the system SHOULD be for every weapon. Currently, ammo perks are a little too valuable even when playing with friends. Base ammo should be increased by 1-2 mags for every gun imo
@@JakoMacro ammo perks are kinda essential for long distance tasks that can appear. Both ores and even the gas can all appear above 400m that the perks are a must. if they can set the setting that at least one ore must be nearby and random ammo supplies on the fields, the perks will be less valuable. right now, it is the chance that all tasks will be far from base that make it too valuable to not have. and I also noticed that a lot of players have ammo fab as well that kinda show that ammo is too valuable.
im also just found this one. Keep a look out for some suspicious player that keep deconstructing stuff. just met them my self and most of them play operator because they can revive them self after i kill them and try to stop their stupid behaviour. while team put effort in killing patrol transport ore he farming gas and force the hoard.. then deconstruct anything in the base start from a fence around arc. other people just busy killing buf this dude busy try to make mission fail. and sadly other operator keep reviving him.
It was probably me and you're welcome it's not like people take a vote as to who's going to build a base so if I need to get into the base and they keep closing the damn door I'll remove the door and let myself right on in tyvm. Best watch doing stuff like that it'll get you banned instead of us who do it because technically we're just simply using a game mechanic put in by the DEVS so get mad at them moron!
The audio issues are getting sorted, this was my first time recording commentary in over 6 years 😂 The levels were abysmal, up and down up and down lol. Microphone peaking too.
@@JakoMacro :-D ok I am happy to know that there were no health issues with you ;-) Again, great tipps. It is sad that most people do not know the way you set up your superior defenses (bunker in front of walls), that would make defending easier :-)
I was referring to guides and tips, at the time of recording I couldn’t find a single tips and tricks video for the game. But you are right, there is plenty of content overall for general audience. The educational content is now becoming available as of the last few days, which is great!
I have a tip for everyone....to hell with tips it's just a silly cheap arcade game that's inevitably going to die out so just do what I do, wait for everyone to hole up inside of the cluttered base that they'll inevitably build, pick Bastion and go far away from those fools build an ammo dump and play solo because sadly this game doesn't have private servers if only if only but alas we're stuck with braindead Call of duty players who couldn't be tactical to save their lives. This game is stupid and should be played accordingly there's no point in using squad based tactics on a silly title like this, to the creator of the video go take a laxative you really need one it's not that serious.
A co2 flamethrower and co2 rounds would be badass. Like shoot them once with the round they slow hit them with a volley they freeze in place. Ive got so many ideas of what i want OWI to do if they only implemented 10 percent of them id be happy. Skies the limit with this one! Add incendiary rounds that incinerate (obviously) A heavy tank bug that can only be killed from the back or in chinks in its armor, armor piercing rounds, Suicide bugs that explode in acid and frenzies the warriors causing them to move faster/deal more damage. Pilotable turrets and mechs. Pulse/electric rounds that shock and bounce from one to another. Secondary modes of fire for most guns. Like the rockets can dumb fire or lock on and all 3 shoot. Grenade shotgun like in unreal tournament. Another class or 2. The brain bug im sure will get added. Hopper bugs, scorpion poisoner bugs. A grappling hook, dismemberment, shields and body armor, I could go on and on.

For NOOBS I'd recommend using the saw only in bastion (shield) mode unless at melee distances. Don't touch base building at all. Once you activate the refiners all hell will descend on it, so go in a fireteam. ANY class can operate a refinery but the operator class is best for it. Don't do it as a heavy.

@@mrbigglezworth42 I couldn't agree more. If I'm in a bad mood I'll take the SAW into melee otherwise it;s the carbine all the way.
Just crouch and ADS with the saw if not in siege mode.

noobies can do building, just let experienced do regular walls , use small walls to box in the ARK after electric fence is up .

@16:37 well it is true you do not need gates, but its much easier and faster to go through open gates when bringing back cannisters in the low-threat build-up phase of the mission.
Last bonus tip is how i got rescued ally (47) in one ARC game, definitely a hidden gem ability
HOW do you deconstruct? Is there a key or is it RMB?
RMB! Sorry for not including that in the video.
you're doing your part !
Good work Trooper
Man I wish this game was on ps5
New recruit here, could you update your tips for 1.0? Thank you, Sir.
1. why not tell how to delete builds ? yes i know i can. but how to ?
2. you can also press 1. while caryring the cannister. and shoot.. and then press 6. to re equip the cannister. ( just learned it today).. hehe
The Operator class is able to carry a 2nd cannister
And you should be able to figure out how to deconstruct...
good video bro this game would probably be good to build a channel since its so new
You don't have to deconstruct walls, you can just jump over them by climbing at the mid section of the walls
Yep! Referenced in tip 8 - Vaulting :)
Its far more satisfying to destroy them or delete them esp when you yourself really have a good idea for something, go to build it but can't because everyone else try harded the base design, yea I'm loving the ability to delete their sh*t and their reactions are so rewarding hearing them cry lmao wahh wahh just a damn video game.
@17:29 is it an exploit? metal walls should convey electricity...
Any chance you can do one that's even more elementary? I just came from my first game and I was totally lost. I didn't understand at all what was going on, and was just trying(and failing) not to die.
Maybe play a game from the start with commentary as to what and why you're doing things? Just offering a complete newbs viewpoint if you are interested in making stuff to help new players. I will be learning by playing myself, game looks really good even if it's a bit overwhelming at first. But later people might find it useful to help get into the game, I know I would have.
If it matters then I was playing as an operator. Maybe things would have been simpler at first by just picking hunter or something. That's just jump and shoot, I think.
Yes, sure can. I mainly focus on guides and tips for players, so that kind of video sounds right up my alley.
In the meantime, I can refer you to this video that is a bit more beginner friendly. Because even though my tips were intentioned for beginners, I realize now that they are more fit for an intermediate player. ruclips.net/video/upEdPPOHjeY/видео.html
@@JakoMacro That filled in some blanks thanks
@bjorn you’re probably a pro by now, but I made a walkthrough guide for the AAS game mode. If you’re still having trouble with some elements of the game, give it a watch!

To me, the Operator is undoubtedly the best class right now. It can do just about everything.
This is an important tip in general for anyone reading, but do not run (yellow canister) gas. Once all the required gas is deposited, that triggers the last stand sequence, followed by extraction. The only way I have lost a game is when someone would deposit them too early, before the team is ready to defend themselves.
Technically, you can run them and deposit all but the very last one. However, even then, there is always some helpful noob that would deposit it for you. So, whenever possible, I would discourage everyone to even run gas at all, until you are sure the base is done.
Anyway, that is my rant disguised as a tip.
How do you type in chat when in game
Extended Mags does not increase ammo counts by simply increasing it. it is simply a math calculation and working as intended.
Normally Rifle carry 60 rounds per mag and have 10 mags totaling 600 rounds.
extended mags turn 60 rounds into 90 rounds so all 10 mags have 90 rounds totaling 900 rounds.
if you use bandoliers again, you can have extra 2 mags (180 rounds) totaling 1080 rounds.
this also works on rocket launcher as we can have 4 rockets instead of 3 rockets.
SAW normally have 150 rounds and 2 mags totaling 300 rounds can turn into 225 rounds with 3 mags totaling 675 rounds. Not recommended as it is more useful to get melee armor to survive longer in siege mode both outside base and in horde stage. for gunner, just crouch behind your shield wall, mark it, and leave it to your sniper teammates. your SAW is not going to do much at long range.
so you don't have to worry too much about running out of ammo with both actives.
I’m aware of how it currently works. I only assume it’s not working as intended because the description of the perk says it increases magazine size by 50%, not ALL magazine es by 50%. That, coupled with the fact that bandolier adds extra mags but why would you need bandolier if you have extended mags as an option? It’s made almost completely obsolete which is poor game design. The final point is I’ve played dozens of fps games with extended magazine options for your gun. This is the ONLY game I’ve played where the extended magazine increase your weapons current loaded capacity and every magazine in your stockpile. In every other game, your total ammo remains the same, but concentrated now into a fewer number of magazines meaning you reload less. If OWI chose this route on purpose it’s not necessarily wrong, it’s just different than any other game design decision by any other studio. Take with that what you will.
@@JakoMacro I can understand your point. however, considering the bullet spongeness of the bugs, I think it is not entirely poor design. especially in higher difficulty. at least until the weakpoint multiplier is properly set up because currently the weakpoint doesn't do much.
if you're considering the weight of ammo into account, 10 60-rounds mags is already a lot to take considering that our current real-world rifleman normally carry 7 30-round mags. since we don't mind the weight and we can already take 10 mags, why reduced the mag count to 7-8 and keep the total rounds the same? might as well just keep taking 10 extended mags in the same 10 slots of normal mags (when we don't consider the shape of the mags and we can't see it in the character screen anyway.).
honestly in my view, when we can clearly ignore other limitations such as weight, shapes, mobility, etc and carry 10 extended mags together, why must we reduce the mag counts just to fit other standard game design in the market?
btw, even with both perks on, I can only go for max 2 tasks with hawkeye in Arc Slam Normal difficulty before having to resupply. and this is normal.
@@amitakumaradasa6020 I think there’s a fine balance in ammo between incentivizing squad play and being self sufficient. The SAW definitely needs 3 mags baseline. Bandolier should give you two extra mags. That way if you play solo you can take both ammo perks and be okay to suppress bugs for an an entire cycle. If you play with friends you should be able to replace ammo perks with something more valuable. That’s how the system SHOULD be for every weapon. Currently, ammo perks are a little too valuable even when playing with friends. Base ammo should be increased by 1-2 mags for every gun imo
@@JakoMacro ammo perks are kinda essential for long distance tasks that can appear. Both ores and even the gas can all appear above 400m that the perks are a must. if they can set the setting that at least one ore must be nearby and random ammo supplies on the fields, the perks will be less valuable. right now, it is the chance that all tasks will be far from base that make it too valuable to not have. and I also noticed that a lot of players have ammo fab as well that kinda show that ammo is too valuable.
Thanks for the video but please stop wildly moving and pointing around, it's really hard on the eyes.
im also just found this one. Keep a look out for some suspicious player that keep deconstructing stuff. just met them my self and most of them play operator because they can revive them self after i kill them and try to stop their stupid behaviour.
while team put effort in killing patrol transport ore he farming gas and force the hoard.. then deconstruct anything in the base start from a fence around arc.
other people just busy killing buf this dude busy try to make mission fail. and sadly other operator keep reviving him.
It was probably me and you're welcome it's not like people take a vote as to who's going to build a base so if I need to get into the base and they keep closing the damn door I'll remove the door and let myself right on in tyvm. Best watch doing stuff like that it'll get you banned instead of us who do it because technically we're just simply using a game mechanic put in by the DEVS so get mad at them moron!
Is it dead?
How do I change my character to a male
It’s random
I know how to build but don't know when or what to build. People have gotten annoyed at me for building stuff 😂😂
You got quieter and quieter every minute. Still a good video, ty!
The audio issues are getting sorted, this was my first time recording commentary in over 6 years 😂 The levels were abysmal, up and down up and down lol. Microphone peaking too.
@@JakoMacro :-D ok I am happy to know that there were no health issues with you ;-) Again, great tipps. It is sad that most people do not know the way you set up your superior defenses (bunker in front of walls), that would make defending easier :-)
Some New players need to stop and observe what other guys do before trying to build a mega base and unwittingly screw over their team :/
no content for this game? have you typed the games name in the search bar? Lol
I was referring to guides and tips, at the time of recording I couldn’t find a single tips and tricks video for the game. But you are right, there is plenty of content overall for general audience. The educational content is now becoming available as of the last few days, which is great!
That's like trying to use an engineering degree while playing minecraft, bruh it's not that serious why you messing it up??
Because it's fun to strategize and optimize this kind of thing
I have a tip for everyone....to hell with tips it's just a silly cheap arcade game that's inevitably going to die out so just do what I do, wait for everyone to hole up inside of the cluttered base that they'll inevitably build, pick Bastion and go far away from those fools build an ammo dump and play solo because sadly this game doesn't have private servers if only if only but alas we're stuck with braindead Call of duty players who couldn't be tactical to save their lives. This game is stupid and should be played accordingly there's no point in using squad based tactics on a silly title like this, to the creator of the video go take a laxative you really need one it's not that serious.
dont care if you sub or not, deff subbing great vid dude!!!! im loving this game
A co2 flamethrower and co2 rounds would be badass. Like shoot them once with the round they slow hit them with a volley they freeze in place. Ive got so many ideas of what i want OWI to do if they only implemented 10 percent of them id be happy. Skies the limit with this one! Add incendiary rounds that incinerate (obviously)
A heavy tank bug that can only be killed from the back or in chinks in its armor, armor piercing rounds, Suicide bugs that explode in acid and frenzies the warriors causing them to move faster/deal more damage. Pilotable turrets and mechs. Pulse/electric rounds that shock and bounce from one to another. Secondary modes of fire for most guns. Like the rockets can dumb fire or lock on and all 3 shoot. Grenade shotgun like in unreal tournament. Another class or 2. The brain bug im sure will get added. Hopper bugs, scorpion poisoner bugs. A grappling hook, dismemberment, shields and body armor, I could go on and on.
