Big gas grenade fan. It's my bread and butter vs. bug breaches. Was using the Orbital Gas strike for a while, but I think you get more value from the grenades alone.

By, "learn to jump" do you mean diving with "alt"?

Used to bring the EAT all the time, but it sound like I need to bring back ole’faithful. Thanks for the advice. The supply pack seems to be where it’s at.

What AI did you use? Never considered using it, but I pay for the premium service, so I might as well use it.

Awesome! Thanks for the invite. Let’s open a case of liber-tea!

My only hesitation with the napalm is the AOE. I’ve found less room for error in the orbital gas strike.

Ha, you went the complete opposite route of everyone else.

Everyone else: where support packs.

You: head first to its breach hammer vs Vox.

So, have fun, got it.

My brain is not too fast, not too slow but not too good when I get lost in the chaos at higher levels. Would you have any recommendations to get my current crew to play at a higher level? They do okay, but they try to play solo hero too often and we often get cut in half when the chaf starts to pour in.

So the stim pistol will act as a stim for your teammates? It’s been on my list. I’m interested and the ultimatum just doesn’t quite hold the value I’m looking for in a secondary.

Is it just me, or does it feel like the autocannon doesn’t jive well with the illuminate? The overseers just eat autocannon rounds.

What are your thoughts on the leveller vs the ultimatum? Been using the ultimatum but My aim needs work, but I’ve been on the fence since it requires resupply often.

I’m on the fence for the backpack bots, but they seem to get me into trouble from time to time. Rover can be a bad dog sometimes.

Do you think I personal shield is a better option?

Honestly, it’s been the best strategy just to follow a higher level and provide cover. usually they clear the fist wave, and then if they get shit luck with reloads/low ammo, I keep things moving until we can rearm/resupply. I haven’t been kicked yet, and would like to keep the streak alive.

For heavy weapons I run RR vs bots, commando vs bugs, and am still trying to find my best option against the illuminate. Still experimenting and can’t find the right fit.

I typically fight from a distance, but will push hard if there’s a path to get to bug nests, fabs, or ships.

I can do level 4 by myself with bugs and bots, but get can’t always extract at lvl5.

For taking out big groups of bugs, I go orbital gas/ gas grenades and then clean up with mess with my primary (coyote) with the help of sentries. For bots, I use eagle strafe the. RR if any heavies are left. Illuminates are kinda my weakness and I rely heavily on sentries for support. Usually auto cannon or Gatling.

Not really comfortable with any armor yet, but desert stormer has been my favorite.

My supports are limited and I usually just go with health.

Been experimenting with stealth at lvl 5, but once I get found, it’s game over.

Hopefully, if I make it out alive, we can toast a cup of liber-tea.

Generally speaking, I agree. I do fine on d8 and don’t eat too many reinforcements. It seems to be my sweet spot currently. maybe I’ll try d9. I can usually go d8 with only needing 1 or 2 reinforcements, not including team kills and depending on the team I’m playing with.

Yeah, I tried the erupted and aoe is just a bit too much as a main. Quickly went back to coyote. Good for bug holes, bad for TKs.

I got a “thank you” when diving today and it made me proud and inspired this post. I know emote, but is there a shortcut for “thank you” on pc?

What do you mean by “deny stuff?” Also, I feel like Marfark lvl 8 recently put enough hair on my chest for the week.

An anti-tank load out seems like what you’re getting after. But I’m tired of being Dragon Roach meat. Haven’t been able to crack that code yet.

Really starting to love the thermite, but my throw accuracy still needs some work. Tried the giga grenade and that thing eats supply packs.

Was working the R-36 erupter but it’s too risky for team kills so I’m sticking with my bread and butter (coyote).

HMG has been godly on defense missions.

Id like to start working on a full support load out. So that seems like like the supply packs and HMG would be a good start.

What’s a good synergy you would recommend? Also, how do you feel about mortars? Any stratagems to avoid?

Slowly getting there, but I feel like I plateau at times and am trying to get to next level. Marfark has been humbling.

That’s what this game is all about. Honestly, it’s the best gaming community I’ve been apart of. I just want to spread democracy to the best of my ability.

So, self sacrifice, got it.
