BEGINNERS GUIDE: How To Build A loadout - Don't Waste Points! - Insurgency Sandstorm

This is just a quick beginners guide on how to build a loadout in ‪@nwi‬ because i see a lot of new players run around with heavy armour and a heavy carrier and it breaks my heart seeing them die because they're not utilising more important things.
Super quick and straight to the point. Hopefully it helped.

Follow me on Twitch, nerds: twitch.tv/sacrilicious__ In depth weapon reviews: kzbin.info/aero/PLBdLh65TLRL5jOIdTv02XzYYIVOW6o_UT Hey just a quick side note: there is such thing as TOO MUCH smoke. So like i said in the video, feel free to change out the smoke for a grenade or flash bang. But if you're attacking, some sort of smoke is a must. What an original video idea amirite. Wanted to make this one short and straight to the point. i didnt wanna flood the new players with too much information. You're gonna hear multiple opinions about armour, my dudes. So in the future, I plan on breaking down how armour works, it's strengths, it's weaknesses etc etc in a really in-depth video. So stay tuned for that. I've been having a lot of fun streaming lately, so come say hi. twitch.tv/sacrilicious__

[@L3v3LLIP]

a little "dont forget to play the points and respawn your team" at the end of every video would be awesome ;D

[@bol0002]

I disagree. Take light armour. You will survive a grenade if its far enough away. Also you can survive 2-3 more hits. Its only 1 point. Also take a carrier and try to spend your points on utility as much as you can before spending points on a gun. Don't cheap out and skip the secondary. Always take a pistol. It will save your life more then you realise. (Switching to your pistol is faster then reloading. ) You can take a masterkey instead of a pistol but i only reccomend it if your defending. Its also 2-4 points more. As always: -glhf -always double check before going in -check those corners. Everyone camps. This game needs a class that can drop an ammo station and a class that can recon the area. The issue with push on both sides is a lack of intel. It would help the game so much

[@loomzoom]

Well lack of intel is what makes the game unuque...if you will have UAV or somthing like that in COD the game will be much faster and will loose its spirit of presion on each player...

Depends on your play style and how accurate you are . Most aggressive players don't use sidearm because when you are switching in a firefight you will always die . Best option is to run if you can or pickup enemy weapon which is the best option if you can.

[@DivingHawker]

I would say the Smoke Launcher is pretty much a must on attack, especially if you take a carrier because it only costs 1 point and you can get at least 1 smoke out of it, up to 3 for the same cost.

[@Gerwulf97]

"Armor is very expensive" Is *literally* 1 point bruh, the rifle plates of light armor take you from dying in 1-2 hits to 2-3, and increase of 50-100%. Heavy armor just adds greater protection in the form of soft armor for explosives, fragments from bullets through walls, etc, and has a place for defenders. I can't justify not running light armor most of the time.

[@Bruno-cb5gk]

Light armour makes you survive one more bullet in like under 10% of your engagements. Almost everyone is running 5.56 guns in this game, which basically ignore armour. As for explosives it just lets you be a little bit closer. If you're getting hit, you're already doing it wrong.

[@BlacksmithBets]

@@Bruno-cb5gk really? 5.56 rifles always seem to take 2/3 shots to kill but 7.62 are often 1 shot/occasionally 2 shots

[@Bruno-cb5gk]

@@BlacksmithBets 5.56 is two shots regardless of armour at common combat ranges. Almost everyone is using 5.56 guns. And even if they're not, and it does take them one more shot to kill you, then its still unlikely it'll be enough time for you to survive since they just need to fire one more shot. If you're getting hit, you're already doing it wrong.

[@thegibbehhh9430]

@@BlacksmithBets Armor is complicated. Against common calibers like 5.56, 5.45, and 7.62x39, it will take 2 shots to the torso to kill except at extreme ranges. 7.62x51 will 1 shot unarmored chests (except the MK 17 Mod 0, for SOME reason). Armor will increase that number to 2 (except if they're using the FAL within 20m, where it still takes 1 shot). Armor only really helps against pistol and SMG calibers and explosives. I suppose armor also helps with wallbangs, as the damage is reduced. It might give you one extra hit.

[@Sheriff_tasty_beans]

It’s expensive in the fact that it only helps in certain situations in every pvp mode except for dom you only get 15 supply keep in mind every security side is going to have a gun that’s at least 3 points a grip of some sort ranging most likely between 2 and 3 points since at the higher level of play you should use either reload or aiming grip then you should always have a frag thats 2 more a gas mask 1 point and a light carrier that’s another add flash hider on your gun so no one can see muzzle flash through smoke 1 more point thats 10 without a sight or smoke which ranges between 5 and 3 points since 2x scopes are the meta scopes so yes armor is expensive for it’s amount of utility it brings when you add on points of necessity

[@ariansedej4535]

Here's what I learned playing both insurgency games for some time now: 1. Light armour is the best protection for the price, as it will increase your survivability against pistol calibers like 9mm and .45ACP. 2. Always take light carrier. When playing demolitionist it's wise to take heavy carrier for the extra 40mm grenade and extra rocket. 3. Flash hider is useless. The maps are relatively small compared to other FPS games and players rarely rely on visual cues to spot an enemy, but rather audible gunfire. If you are getting shot at, you will die trying to see where the flash of the gun is. It is wiser to seek cover and determine the location of the enemy by their gunshots. If you are trying to be stealthy, use the suppressor, it will not only make your gunshots quieter but also hide your flash. For higher caliber guns with a lot of recoil use the compensator. 4. Pistols are only viable if using a machinegun or a bolt action sniper rifle. Otherwise they are nothing but added weight. By the time you will pull out your sidearm you will already be dead. If not, you could've already reloaded your primary. You will most likely die before running out of primary weapon ammo. Unless you are a camper, and in that case fuck you. If you ever actually landed in a situation where you needed to engage someone with a pistol head on, your chances of surviving against an opponent with a rifle are slim. 5. Grenades: flashbangs for CQB like Ministry, smokes for push mode, frag grenades are always worth having. Incendiary & molotovs are only useful for destroying caches. 6. Weapon attachments: I personally find 1.5x PKAS and 2x-1x holographic sights the best, for sniping 3x-6x. Best grips are aiming grip for faster ADS and recoil grip for higher caliber rifles. Extended magazines will save your life more times than you think, use them instead of a sidearm. Use tracers if you're an idiot and you want enemies to find you.

[@evanvitiello6438]

Flash hider helps a lot for full auto. Your muzzle flash actually obstructs a lot of vision when you full auto, especially at range. I’d never take it over a mask, but if it’s between aiming grip or loading grip and flash hider, the latter every day. Also sidearms are very useful. I always take one

[@darkySp]

Additionally, it's very worth it to get a heavy carrier on Observer. Seeing as you'll be staying safe to be ready to call fire support with the Commander, having a heavy carrier can allow you to have 6 smokes in total. 3 smoke grenades and 3 smoke rounds from your underbarrel launcher. Pair that with the M16A4 and a 1x-2x or 1x-4x sight and you're golden!

Flash hider and gasmask save your live a thousand times more than armour Also, if you are prone, do not take a backpack, it will nearly triple your silhouette when prone, snipers don't need more ammo, and gunners can instead use galil+drums since you get 3 of them w.out a backpack

@@bardanmalla193 Light armour stops G3 1 shot, and FAL 1 shot at about 10m, however, they deal enough damage and have enough pen to one shot when you hit an arm, and then penetrate and hit the chest, not sure if heavy armour fixes that.

[@packwolf445]

I will always say take a light carrier just so you have another second to get put that callout or to fire back at pistols. I also always Carry a sidearm bc unless I'm playing breacher the gun length can get you killed in certain situations

[@InfiniteDesign91]

As rifleman I usually try to use a rifle with 7.62mm caliber, because it can kill in one shot even with armor, and in longer distances. On Insurgent side it's AK 47 or FN FAL, On Sec side it's usually TAVOR I think. When attacking more smoke. When defending more frag or inci. Light armor is always on, and usually light carrier. Also flash hider and nice scopes depending on map. As sniper the lower class primary like M24 usually does one shot kill. Just use 7 or 8x scope. In contrast the SASS cannot kill with one shot on long ranges, so it's far worse, even with faster fire-rate. Add a nice sidearm. Also supressor. As gunner I opt for higher caliber, and magazine size, 1-4 scope and flash hider.. With heavy carrier, or extended mag with light carrier. For observer I don't bring much smoke, because commander cannot call fire support through smoke. For commander I bring basic rifle and 6 smokes, including launcher and heavy carrier. For breacher I rarely play it, but faster fire rate SMGs are preferred for me. For advisor I prefere higher caliber rifles with best scopes. And some smoke during attack.

good buff to the armor would be capable to carry 3 extra mags, 3 center mass 7.62 or 55 6 50% chance to completely deflect in stacked impact of the round, one extra frag, and a utility of small explosive breach, 15 overall hp gain...

They do, I always have P226 with Quickdraw Holster in HC, furthermore in HC night ops, It's best to always have a flashlight equipped on your sidearm, as you always spawn back with your sidearm intact.

[@BTWwereAwesome]

Correct me if I'm wrong but in regarding the gas mask tip, I believe uncontrollable voice lines (RELODING, ENEMY DOWN, etc) are team sided. Optional voice lines in the scroll wheel (INTIMIDATE, ENEMY THAT WAY, etc) and observers calling in fire support are global. I don't know if I'm misremembering this but I think that's the case.

[@sac_YT]

You're right. The enemy can't hear you reload, or when you capture an objective or when you're the last one alive and you say something "hey where is everyone" etc etc. But I reckon they can hear you yell something when a friendly dies, I swear I've heard it before. But most voice queues are audible and can be heard by the enemy.

heavy armor will save you from a bullet that would otherwise kill you. since it only need 1 or 2 bullets to kill your enemy, armor will play a significant role of whether or not you would survive from a bullet to the chest (very important atleast for me). i'd go for light at the start of the match so i could go to obj faster then switch to full armor on the next respawn.

[@miguelhidalgo94]

After almost 1000 hours of gameplay I have to say that I don't really agree with a fair amount of the statements made in the video. Lighweight armour is utterly useless, yes. But heavy armour is definitely not. Being able to survive 2/3 extra bullets and explosions makes a huge difference, even if you cannot move as swifty. Either go with heavy armour, or nothing at all. I prefer to be protected though. The same goes with carriers. As you said, smokes and grenades in general are your best friend. Being able to carry 3 of them is a huge advantage, as well as having the ability to supress with fire. You can only do this with a heavy carrier, 3 points very well spent. In regards to primaries, I always recommend getting used to either not using a scope, or using the one who's less space-invasive (MRO, 2x Red Dot and the like). Using a large scope cripples your ability to play 90% of the times. Using Compensator+Recoil grip is the best loadout if you want your weapon to be really effective. And yes, always carry a secondary, even if it's the cheapest one.

[@engineer_kermit4547]

Fully agree with your statements but the compensator and recoil grip depends, because the aiming grip is also very good if you want to be extra fast like with the mp7

[@Sheriff_tasty_beans]

You gotta remember weight tho being heavy limits movement and thus makes maneuvering the map a lot slower movement is key when it comes to playing against good players in sandstorm being fat makes movement worse making you easier to kill

I really disagree with the armour argument. Turning a 1-shot kill into a 2 or 3-shot kill is an absolute godsend when every bullet is lethal.

So for example a 5.56 round is a smaller round than a 7.62 round, which means it will fly faster for longer which results in a higher velocity, it can penetrate walls better etc etc. 7.62 doesn't always mean more damage either. I wouldn't concern ya self with the recoil units too much. It can be a guide, but fire rate can affect how a weapons recoil feels too.

I refuse to wear a gasmask at all times. I want to see the game as it is not through a gasmask, so I only use it when close to enemies or in smoke.

[@Frudu]

y would be better if you lose your stamina faster with gasmask because breathing isn't that easy to make it so you wear it only in the right situations

[@lihac5079]

Can we just appreciate the Morrowind Low-fi. (Don't quote me on that it might not be Low-fi.)

[@viperpoof]

Do you get points back if you unequip guns or attachments or do you have to earn points?

[@Mo_1042]

you get points back, every class starts with a specified amount of points. Something to remember is to not be afraid to have some extra points left over if it means you're keeping your weight low, weight in this game is so overlooked but so important for mobility. Can't tell you how many flanks i've gotten because I could run faster than the rest of my team lol.

[@ryanyogianto]

Of course, but if u edit ur loadout mid game, it'll change after u died and respawn or u resupply in resupply box.

[@viperpoof]

@@Mo_1042 gocha thanks

[@Frudu]

the points are just there to balance the loadouts so you cant equip everything. more modern or powerfull gun cost more points so do more ammo more nades etc. but you can always flip your point around how you like it to adjust your loadout and resuply or respawn.

[@Sheriff_tasty_beans]

Every class in pvp except for dom gets 15 supply points

[@matthewaafjes1149]

Hey how do you get the UI for attachments to be a list

[@sac_YT]

This is old UI before they changed it.

[@daniilgerasimov817]

This game supposes to be realistic but sometimes it makes no sense. Like when a guy killed me with 2 pistol shots while I was in heavy armor(and it wasn't headshot) while in reality, he would do close to no dmg even with a full magazine. Sometimes enemies go down with 1-2 riffle bullets and sometimes I see the enemy, I start shooting first, I see bullets hitting him but he still manages to stop, aim and kill me first:(

[@wildoo9870]

Desynchronization between your computer and the server is what causes enemies to look like they've been hit when they weren't. On your side you see that your weapon fired, and blood spattered where the hitscan/projectile should have hit, but on the server's side it either registered it so late that the enemy moved before the shot could have landed or it wasn't registered at all. Sometimes the enemy isn't exactly where it looks like they are on your screen as far as the server is concerned, though I've only ever had issues with that when my internet was being cut off. As for the pistol, unless the enemy was looking down or streight up, you were probably hit in the head.

Just use low settings and some nvidia settings can make things easier to see but I don’t know those

[@noroom4commies086]

I think armor is very useful for gunners.

[@Sheriff_tasty_beans]

Not really since your head is almost always what going to get hit and you already way a lot as gunner since you should be taking heavy carrier and the gun and ammo is already heavy so mobility is lower

[@SociatalEffecta]

I agree.. ARMA.. Just isn't worth it, this is where it's at

[@RayRiv73]

Would it be a must to attach recoil grip for controller use on console?

[@nickhowatson4745]

recoil grip + compensator is great for controller because its harder to manage recoil on one

[@RayRiv73]

@@nickhowatson4745 thank you

[@Sheriff_tasty_beans]

You really should only take one of the two attachments either recoil grip or compensater mostly the one that affects vertical recoil and not horizontal unless you use mgs but I highly recommend learning the recoil patters of the guns as soon as possible so you can spend a couple points elsewhere

[@sninctbur3726]

You unlock the rest by leveling up. It's to prevent noobs from picking up important roles that require lots more knowledge than they have, like Commander or Marksman.

[@acezero8132]

@@sninctbur3726 Sadly I still see a lot of new players picking Marksman and not dealing with enemy snipers/gunners, or doing anything useful. imo, they should raise the level requirement to 100 at least.

You have to unlock them as you level up it’s so low levels don’t just use sniper gunner demo and commander which would be taking up important spots that take skill to learn to use properly

How do u get more points to customize your load out

[@sninctbur3726]

That's the neat part: you don't.

[@sac_YT]

You can't. Unless you're playing domination.

[@Frudu]

you dont. you basically only unlock cosmetics and the more specific roles like commander or breached when lvling up. When you unlock a class you get everything right out the start. you just need to make your build out of the things aviable. insurgency is about the gameplay not the grind... and thb its awesome you play to get better but not by your gear or perks. you improve your skill, aim, knowledge etc.

You buy all the dlc, personally pay me $200, and then you receive a .005% chance of getting a bonus point when playing Skirmish.

Yep. I always have the P226. Furthermore, in night ops (only applies to HC) keep a flashlight in your pistol, since you always spawn back with your sidearm.
