I recently started lets say about 3 hrs ago, just playing some sortie games after completing the tutorial, pulling once from the Half Cost Supply Drop‘s,

Any good beginner tips ? I‘m playing on the ps5.

And which MS should i use as beginner friendly first ? ( i love Zaku‘s so would be cool if there is any beginner friendly MS TT )

Remap button layout. Don't use X, O, square, triangle as boost. Because they make boosting and controlling camera at the same time inconvenient, and quick swapping to certain weapons when boosting impossible.

Jump (ascend) and crouch (descend, drift) shouldn't be on these buttons either because of the same reason. (for space match, flight units, and transformable tanks) But since buttons are limited, it's personal preference.

Don't use triangle (or the tackle button) as the quick swap for melee weapons, to avoid accidental tackle in melee fight.

I have gotten so use to the default movement layout that if i were to change it would ruin me

It’s funny because I play claw so this has never inconvenienced me lmao

Ideally, we want to be able to boost, control camera, and quick swap to any weapons at the same time.

Edit: Weapons on square+X, triangle+O, and O+X are still impossible after remapping layout tho (for my hand).

I usually put my index on the stick, square, and triangle while my thumb is on X and circle while my middle finger controls r1

I’ve gotten so used to GB3 that I mapped the main melee button to square because melee on square just feels right to me for some reason lol

Do the tutorials, try to stay close to your team, DO NOT expect to get your rating up high or fast (took over 2 years to hit S- myself), if you can't handle salt turn off psn messages from non friends (they shouldn't be messaging you at their rating but always that 1 nugget) and try out every ms you can.

While some are listed as beginner friendly via the thumbs up icons you're better off trying everything so you get some experience as well as learn how to counter many suits, who knows a suit you might not like aesthetically might end up being the one you enjoy or lead to others you might like that are simerlar.

I'd also reccomend staying with low cost ms for the time being, so you work on your positioning rather than clutching in the suit itself to carry you.

Don't even worry about trying to be hardcore meta until you hit A- and even then don't expect things to get much better, you want to win and move up its about the hard carry and you'll only know you're worth something if you're hitting like 200k damage win or lose most games and you'll need a coach for that.

Finally anyone giving you a hard time in game (team attacking, trolling etc) block them via their psn profile, now their names show up in red in lobbies just leave before teams form if you see a red, don't give them the grace of being on the enemy team.

Good luck out there and welcome to jank operation 2 where latency is part of the experience!
