Hi I'm super new, 22 rank at the moment, question about the resources and data... And certs... Exactly how do I get data.... And if I upgrade stuff like my aircraft, if it blows up like 3 times in a game did I just lose 3 times the certs I spent too get that craft...or?

[@marioq70]

Main tip: Keep your head down! Every single inch of the combat zone is under the aim of a sniper! Do not stand still! Never!

[@orecruncher7930]

Shhh..... need more kills with my rifles.

[@mc_lolFig]

Bruh that’s me, “I’m like yes stand still give me these kills” My favorite is the snipe off between the snipers

[@thatsneakyneenja2595]

I love messing with snipers. Normally when a sniper sees a mana they think "free kill" with me I just rotate the mana so they just barely cannot shoot me because the shield cannot be destroyed by gunfire. Naturally once they see me they decide they will shoot at me until I die so I am keeping them from aiming at my teammates simply by existing and occasionally taking potshots in their general direction.

[@nbn292]

I just use stalker cloak and the knife that shoots lasers as well as adrenaline cos being faster than everyone is super useful

Haha engi turret go chickchikachicka

[@GunmanTheH]

Tip: When you are hiding/cloaked with enemies near, do not spot them with Q. Your soldier will produce empire specific voice line that other players (including enemies) around you will hear. This can (and often) lead to you being quickly killed even though you were hidden/cloaked

[@CAMIKAZE78]

One of the tips was meant to be implying that, but I didn't want to get too indepth here in this video. I will probably mention that in my infiltrator guide video.

[@loc1123]

that's a camper tip. if you are moving with a squad and play on bigger fights it won't matter anymore. my advice: the bigger the fight, the more you should spam the 'q' key, gets you a lot of free xp

[@moridin462]

many poor infils have taken an AP round in the face thinking they were safe spotting my magrider from the hill behind me

I play with a positional sound system, just yesterday an NC infiltrator cloaked before i passed, i hear the sound, even he spotted me i just turned and shoot him...

[@mierzhen]

13:17 about friendly fire, "You hit that guy!" "He shouldn't been standing there." even more annoying when you're shooting at an enemy, and your derp genius friendly walks right in front of your line of fire, you kill the teammate, and the guy you were originally shooting at kills you.

[Tips in "Thank you" in Planetside 2] 1. Thank the Combat Medic for healing & reviving. 2. Thank the Engineer for repairing & giving ammo. 3. Thank your Teammate/Allied player who killed enemy before they kill you or [Insert situation]. 4. Thank any Driver (Allied) who stop instead of hit & run. 5. Thank the Driver/Pilot (Allied) who waited for you even thou you didn't call out for a ride. 6. Thank the Squad/Platoon Leaders for leading you into the battle, especially when they're using their mic. 7. Thank the Mentor who help you in this harsh game, same with mic. 8. Thank the enemy you killed, because saying thank you to the enemy is more insulting then taunting. 9. Thank the tank for tanking from the enemy tanks 10. Thank yourself for not giving up this harsh game for newbies.

[@DaSupaBomb108]

Tip #31: Don’t get mad. One major thing that happens to everyone in our favorite planetmans game is that the majority of players will eventually get mad at some point. When this happens, your focus and overall performance can decrease. Therefore you should learn to take breaks, especially when you start getting frustrated. I’ve learned from experience that computer mice and keyboards don’t work too well when getting bashed on a desk constantly.

[@CAMIKAZE78]

Couldn't agree more, always enjoy the game in moderation when needed. Don't burn yourself out by trying to play when angry.

[@keyserv2]

I just started yesterday and I was pleasantly surprised by how simple it was to get into the action. Also, the game just feels amazing. I haven't been this excited to play a game like in years. Can't wait until I clock out!

@@4d4m444 Thanks! I'm enjoying it. I've been able to put ~60 hours in since I made the original comment. It's got a lot of different situations to account for, and I find being effective in any situation the most challenging. Still working on that aim, though. It's been 15 years since I've been dedicated to a PC FPS.

[@4d4m444]

@@keyserv2 The game has an interesting learning curve. You learn the maps, the objectives, the sunderer placement, and then you get to the grind of certs. But honestly I forget its a grind cause it's just so damn fun. It's good to hear you enjoy it!

[@eduardoborges506]

Lately everytime i get killed by a low BR player , i actualy get happy.Never seen such a fresh player base since 2012/2013. We need to keep them.

[@agnesreiley396]

I don’t mind getting killed by them I’m sure they felt great finally getting a kill after being torn apart by BR 120s

[@GamesRulez14]

1. Watch Grenade Icons. Great to throw into a base you're attempting to capture for easy kills. 2. Stay away from doors and windows when capping a base. People like to throw C4 through them. 3. If pop is not on your side, it is recommended to stay on point to survive as going out you may be gunned down. 4. Friendly Max's - Rubber band yourself to the cover you're using to gun down enemy units. As a reminder there's most likely a engi who can't help you if you stretch too far. - Also beware of how long your engi has been repairing you as their Tool Gun can overheat and needs to recharge. 5. H Key expands your mini map if you wish to see more or being more aware of the battlefield. - Armor - Watch your unit patterns as Light Assaults that carry C4 could sneak around and get you. - Armor - Listen to the sound of enemy gunfire from another vehicle is crucial as you may save yourself from a harasser hitting your rear. 6. Armor - The weakest point of your or the enemy armor will always be the rear, so be sneaky and if you have to escape from being killed. Depending on the situation, backing up is better than attempting to turn around. [Following point is my theories or recollection of long ago info] - If you see grey metal plates on an armor, it's a C4 resistant. If you need to do the full damage it would do, they would have to be placed on their rear. - NC Main Battle Tank, the Vanguard is a shield ability, when it's activated you'll see a blue cover on it. I was told you can aim for the turret or rear as they'll be exposed if there's no blue lining of course. 7. Some bases have no vehicle logic/physics - Most bases are set so vehicles can't get in. Some however find a crack in the wall so look out for harassers running you over as well as on the field. 8. "Graphics Settings" is the setting that determines how well you can see a cloak infiltrator. (Beware: Lowest settings means you can't see them at all.) 9. If you're an Emerald (East Server) gamer, watch out for belmonkey. That is all.

[@hoganbentle3582]

Who's belmonkey?

[@SoulKiller7Eternal]

Then there are people like me...who have decked out a Lightning kit to deal with Harassers. I've made something of a hobby of hunting these dicks down. Especially the Vulcans.

[@GamesRulez14]

@@hoganbentle3582 belmonkey is an NC player that has a I guess a strong run shield knife build [Idk stuff.] During that time he was on frequently clearing rooms or hard to take down, in other words, if you try shooting him as he is running towards you, you're likely to die. You may shout at his annoying skills or confusion he brings in your ally packed room, but I always had found it funny to see how many people actually respond to me screaming "Knifer!" into proximity which often saves at least fair amount of players before he clears the room. xP And that's good sportsmanship. x3

Based on my experience I'd say it's best to start as an engineer. You can make a turret for long range and carry very powerful shotguns for in close, plus everyone wants vehicles and maxes repaired. Plus doing ant runs helps.

It really gave me good information and I am certain it will help me enjoy the game more as a new player. By the way, I adore your Titanfall 2 background in the outro. Titanfall 2 is one of my top 3 favorite games of all time up there with Warframe and the original Star Wars: Battlefront series (and if you are curious, I am a Grapple main scrub). I want to get it for PC (I play it on XBox One atm) but I don't have Origin right now, but that may change in the future.

“Planetside 2 is one of the hardest shooters on the market to get into.” Squad: Am I a joke to you?

[@CAMIKAZE78]

Yeah look, good ole Squad is certainly up there too :’)

[@SCP049darkness]

I mean... they are 2 entirely different "Shooters" though.... Squad is supposed to be a military Simulator of sorts and Planetside is more of Battlefield/classic old Star wars battlefront type of feel too it.

[@StrixyN]

This is a FPS + MMO + RTS type game and as such it attracts different types of players with different types of experience from each of those genres. Having played all three I can tell you that there are cultural differences between those games and Planetside that have little to do with the hard rules of the game. For example, if you're coming from an MMORPG like WoW, DDO, etc... and you're avoiding the Medic because "everyone blames the healer", don't worry about it. The medic class is a very different experience in Planetside (speaking as a former healer in both those games). If you're coming from a FPS like COD, spawn camping *is* allowed in Planetside 2. It's not going to get you kicked, but also don't rage quit when a sniper OHK's you as you run out of the spawn room. (I can already hear people typing their comments about that point and I haven't even posted yet, LOL). If you're coming from a RTS style game like Starcraft 2 you'll probably want to join a large outfit and play with them. Work your way up to lead a squad and then become a platoon leader where you'll be able call the play and implement larger scale strategies for 60+ players directly and your entire faction indirectly. Heads up though, playing squad leader can be an awful lot like playing a healer in an MMO with units that are stuck on 'very easy'. (I'm gonna burn for that joke! LOL).

[@SticksInStilts]

60+? Don't you mean 48? Or is there an update I missed that changed something about this....... This happens a lot......

[@CAMIKAZE78]

Cheers mate, really kind of you! Will be doing some more up to date vids guides very soon!

[@WingsAboveCS]

Big tip: want to get kills as a new player? go NC heavy with SAW, it will kill anyone easy Is puting yourself in danger too hard? lobotomize yourself and use the phoenix from spawn room to steal kills from allied tanks without ever giving your enemies the chance to shoot you. Want to play with vehicles? the vanguard has an ability that lets you press F to instantly win any tank fight, and it straight up has more health and dammage than any other main battle tank. Is fighting on equal ground too hard? go NC MAX, it has the same killing potential as other maxes from afar but is even deadlier up close, in trouble? press F to activate the only MAX ability in the game that actualy helps you instead of making you more vunerable. But don't say that NC is overpowered and that the devs have an NC bias because a zerg of NC's will find you and lynch you for your opinion.

Great vid, thanks. I may be off, but it seems to me like your rifle usage at 10:14 indicate that you should either turn off mouse acceleration in Windows 10, or raise your sense a little, since your aim isn't straight on the target instantly and then you compensate (well) afterwards.

[@whaahhh]

Ant is a great way for new players to earn certs. Also 20% less damage from infantry is pretty huge. Learning about implants as soon as possible will give you a better understanding of why your always getting spotted or how some players are so tanky, read them and start missions that give you currency to buy some for yourself.

[@juliusfisher1298]

Here’s one a good tip someone taught me: You have to remember that you’re playing against other people, who like you, are cunning and adaptable. sometimes they’re really good and sometimes really coordinated; there will be times where they’ve thought of everything and there’s not much you can do. So don’t get mad, this will happen to everyone at some point. Just admire them for their amazing strategy instead. :)

[@ivorymantis1026]

I'll summarize the entire video into one sentence: "Always try to be flanking"

[@FrameDrumAndFlute]

The problem is everyone is trying to do the same. So while you're trying to flank there's a sniper waiting for you to come around.

[@TheRogueWolf]

One caveat on the trick about using gravity lifts to avoid damage: The lift actually has to AFFECT you. If you just run over a "down" lift without jumping, you don't get the effect, and your ankles are not going to be happy if you take a long fall afterwards.

Use engineer. Most cert gains a short time. Ammo, repairs, minigun or tow launcher (infinite spawns and ammunition), and access to an anti tank rifle that ruins maxes.

[@JesusGonzalez-it2sv]

Ive always wanted to play the game, but never had a good PC. So i was boring browsing the free ps4 games. And this was my surprice. Started playing las night. Im in love but need a lot of direction. But ive been impactfull i think xD.

[@battyflaps5410]

Lol that tank at the intro like whats he doing there lmao.. Still the best fps game. If your playing as VS faction Spam V then 4.. :D

I am in need...of batteries

[@billy_cross5580]

Reverencing tip number 3 you didn't mention that you also get squad-based experience. so even if all that's available are spots with low cohesion meaning they're not really playing together or communicating or doing anything in the same locationit still makes sense to be in a spot just because you do have the possibility of flat faced experience and then multiplier

[@beancracker5628]

have been playing ps for 4 years now I still suck at the game but good tips my friend

[@Taronas]

You forgot the most important one... AIM for the head... the TTK difference between head and body shots is to great to not be trying for headshots.

Tips for nuggets in air, when you are in esf fly high at max alt (most people don't look up) from there observe for target, you have advantage of speed when dropping in to engage Only pick target that are solitary, doesn't have lumifiber and attacking ground If they outnumber you or have GLOWING LUMIFIBER RUN AWAY unless you maxed out any performance slot you have in the aircraft. ussualy if a pilot glow their lumifiber they KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING and it takes another Ace to take em down. When in a pinch drop low and fast to the nearest Active AA/friendly air (any ESF pilot will gladly help to pad their killscore) but don't stop till u get to warpgate. Everyone fighting style is different in air but it boils down to a few things that need to be mastered: Manuevering, Aiming and situational awareness. Personally as reaver pilot if going anti air, i will close in with 50% of my afterburner, only shoot when he is basicly 5m-1m in front of your nose to maximize the damage and accuracy, then when he reverse face him with a reverse but then close the distance as you will need to aim less if its closer, after that pass him and keep engaging him in the same pattern.

More people should attempt being pilots in ps2. I'm not a "ACE" but I have my scythe maxed out and love occasionally playing the air. The beauty of ps2 is the variety of ways to enjoy combat. Flying planes is one of them but most newer player dont want to learn. Maybe someone should make a easy tutorial video on how to fly planes in a efficient dog fight

[@TheMacCloud]

fucking hell cami thats one hell of a great beginners guide to ps2!

[@redtsun67]

Honestly don't play LA or HA if you have low framerate since you will get crushed. Play a pocket class like engie, medic, or just pull a sundy or something. High framerate is a must for winning engagements regardless of what anyone says since the person with 60 frames will always land their shots better than the person they are fighting who has 15-25 frames. Why? Because of aim twitch, strafing, and recoil patterns.

[@jonny_gage]

most underrated game ever!

[@r3mii619]

I’m gonna give this game another go. First time I tried it I was lost. Didn’t know how to find enemies and where to go.

[@kaiserdarkangel]

Best tip, buy medkits , cheap ,can resupply , can save your butt when youre low lvl and try to get flak armor at lest lvl 2 or 3 on your fav class

[@redtsun67]

I gotta say I use to talk about hardware advantage all the time as a joke, saying stuff like "yee just buy 3000 dollar computer and then you have 10K/D ez game" and stuff like that, but recently I upgraded my computer hardware as well as bought a 144hz monitor, so I'm pulling really good FPS, and my K/D has significantly improved and I can actually track and aim effectively. Seriously, the ability to track moving targets and fire accurately at them is amplified by having a higher FPS and higher refresh rate.

[@ARWINGx1]

6:37 such as that I prefer SMGs AND Assault Rifles/Carbines that excel in close quarters, as I can't aim for sh** beyond Mid Range. (OR, if using VR Training + Sweeper HUD Implant, 10 (1 "step" back on the shooting range) ~ 15m for hip firing. (maybe 20, depending on the weapon's Hip Accuracy) and 20~30 (or 35) with ADS. And since I main the VS, I determined that both the NS-11A/NS-11C & H-V45/VX-5 Zenith would work better for me.
