Maybe not the building climbing, but there are many mechanics in this game that are not explained thoroughly, yet used constantly by the massive majority of the player base that aren't explained to beginners.

[@petargarmaz4260]

Honestly, as a player with ~4000 hours clocked in the game, I never knew about that biolab -wall- tree jump at 23:21. Thanks for sharing that :)

[@Drunkengoose1993]

15:36 This one was kind of a footnote but is a HUGE tip. If you see an enemy that is far enough away outside of your effective engagement range (e.g. you have an SMG or other cqc weapon) and they don't see you, Q spot them (be careful that you're not too close that they can hear your character's callout) and now you essentially have wallhacks on them and can hunt them much easier until youre in an engagement range that you can win. Understanding the effective range and damage drop-off of the weapon you're using is huge too. I see far too many new players trying to kill targets at like 100m with a CQC damage model weapon like an SMG. All you're going to accomplish at that range is alerting enemies to your position, wasting an entire mag, and then getting sniped in this face by an infil. Great video commander. All this stuff I've learned instinctively from so many hours in the game, but I imagine it must be difficult to put yourself in a new player's shoes and try to explain the concepts that seem obvious to us veterans.

[@Nogigs]

Amazing video man! I had no idea about the tree jump at crossroads XD.

[@acolyte63]

Yup, hopefully I will remember this at a appropriate moment.

[@perryborn2777]

I really love the Glados announcer you've got, especially when you get a massive amount of kills and she just says "Holy shit, holy shit, holy shit" I also really appreciate this vid, cause it is the exact issue I've been having with this game every single time I try and get into it.

[@slap6292]

This man is the only reason why I’m good at the game.I want to see more advanced training guides

[@butteredbiscuit168]

Personally you should address the "Ostrich effect" (An ostrich sticks its head into the dirt, so now he believes he is invisible) where new players will hold a peek that they think is cheeky but in reality they become an easy target. I have seen too many BR 1-15s hold angles that are just down right dumb to hold, and they think that since they cant see me, it must work both ways. Teach things like right angle peeks( you know, the peek where you can safely hide your head behind cover while shooting from an angle).

[@dontkickmychick6076]

Could you explain further? I feel like I do this now that you say it

[@soulshinobi]

[@blackheartgaming6121]

Enemies: He’s in the the trees man he’s in the trees Cyrious: pop goes my rifle

[@Skili19]

Great video. There is also one more usefull thing lot of people still dont use: - when you use a lift your fall damage is removed for few seconds (doesn't mater if it is the yellow for going up or the blue one for going down) * you can use this to get down towers quickly or to get from a fight or when ever you need to get down somewhere fast. Just touch the lift (dont have to ride it the all the way) run to where you want to jump and jump (you have only few seconds before the fall damage is back but once you are in the air you should land safely)

[@xXyoyo3lbossZz]

It makes me happy everytime I see a Terran Republic youtuber😬 and remember, this is called Tactical Superiority!

[@ltnicekiwi4534]

More Gunplay Principles please :D When to ADS or not, taking on amour, avoiding run-overs etc.

[@JacobStade]

Man, I've got over 1,000 hours into this game and never knew about some of those areas where you can wall jump/climb. I've seen people climb other crazy areas, but have been unable to mimic it without the maxed catlike implant. I highly recommend other players to play around with catlike 5 when they get it. You might find some new unexpected angles to flank from.

[@DaRoach5882]

As always, thanks for the awesome video Commander!

[@CMDRCyrious]

[@glockenspiel604]

That crossroads watchtower tree path has been very useful ever since I saw you do it on stream. Being able to get a heavy assault on a flank normally only accessible to light assaults or infils is very powerful in a large fight.

[@SpinradN]

visibility - sensitivity - video settings. Cant wait. Awesome videos btw

[@Arrow-nj3gn]

Finding the proper angle is definitley essential to maximizing for survivability and dakka.

[@strikeforce1500]

One recommendation during a fight in a cqc, especially in the Capture Point (CP), try to put as much thing between you and the enemy. The CP itself gives some cover, but if you find a tall console/terminal in the middle of a room, use it to outflank the enemy, think outside of the box. You planned to come out from the left? Frick it, go for the right. Also, Indar trees, especially the top of Palms are stupidly good to hide in

[@53Memati53]

That dodging before shooting looks like Martial Arts :D And I will be sure to climb those bio lab buildings from now on hehe

[@joewozniak711]

[@jonneruokolainen2060]

Learned some amazing tricks, great job on the video Commander!

[@ufhb6649]

About the base specific sneaky paths : there is one at Snake Ravine Lookout on Indar ; next to the spawn, there is one of these « towers » with a phalanx turret, you can easily jump from it to get into the tree and reach the point or just take a look at the fight outside of the facility’s walls (and get some nasty sniper kills if there is a big fight going on). It’s incredibly useful when defending it.

[@anthonyrichardson6299]

Another excellent video. Never knew about the jump momentum loss mechanic in PS2

[@gorgon28]

I really like the principals of gunplay vids. not only are they helpful to keep me mindfully of the basics, they're also excellent as something to point newer players to so they're less frustrated with the brutal learning curve of Planetside.

[@mithrasabyss2765]

[@garydose129]

Thanks! Defs needed this. I kept getting beat 1v1 but couldn't identify the issue. Certainly partly because I lacked doing any evasion. I spent all my time focusing on improving aim, but wasn't seeing any improvement. Would like to see more principles of gunplay guides like this.

[@daholeeman2468]

What a great video for new players and veterans alike. Highly recommend players in any fps watch it. Well done Commander

[@patak60]

I've found this usefull while palying with elevators: If you go up or down an elevator, you will have a few seconds of fall damage immunity, meaning you wont take damage from falling from a great height. But something I found is that if you land, and then jump every few seconds, this keeps the fall damage immunity going. This is usefull when defending at a tower base. For example, you can take the elevator up and start running towards one of the air pads, if you jump every few seconds, you can fall off the air pad and not take any damage, allowing you to sometimes get the drop on some people.

[@spiritretro3571]

very very helpful, i would love to see more of these

[@brandonperez7220]

Commander Cyrious your videos have helped me so much in my planetside battles. I can't thank you enough for putting out detailed, focused, and easy to understand, beginner oriented cideos alongside your more advanced trainings.

One of my favorite paths to flank is at NC Arsenal. Take the teleporter and go to the left. You can jump up the rocks and walk through a small crack between 2 peaks. You can hop from this space to B(?) Point roof directly

Visibility - Sensitivity - Setting *Perseverance Maneuvering - Recoil Control - Situational Awareness - Aiming I'd add Perseverance after settings, being a new player you will die, a lot, you should know this AND expect this to be the norm, and you must take every death and learn from it instead of getting upset. After every death you need to look back, analyze and learn, then get back up and do it all over again. 10-100 matches will NEVER be enough to 'git-gud'.

Welp, I finally made it into a Cyrious video. I can now scratch that off my bucket list. Now to get you to talk about the issues of high skill players/skillfits like the Goblins and sometimes even Recursion or Merc who go out of their way to ruin every single fight for the rest of us. Anger aside, it's nice to see you making videos again, feels like you and Cami are the only two people in the community who actually make proper, detailed educational videos that isn't obnoxious or lacks tact.
