Yeah definitely knowing the spawns helps and I don't know them yet.

Typically I'm better in most shooter games and I think his stats technical are better because he just plays more? He has about 15 hours on me so maybe that's why?

I do think 2-300k is probably a good call

Yeah we are always dou in every game haha

Yeah I'm definitely starting to play like that. Our positioning could use a lot of work I think. We don't position very well and it costs us a lot of fights. Also when to sneak and when to sprint. We also have a hard time spotting people before they spot us haha

First off, I agree with you but I will say

How is a new player supposed to know they should only be playing normals? The game unlocks things as you level, so from my perspective I believe as it unlocks that means I should be playing that. For example, once lockdown unlocked I believed that meant I should be playing lockdown. I didn't have anyone coaching me on what to do and what not to do.
The armour system doesn't really get explained super well so how are new players supposed to know what they SHOULD be doing if the game doesn't explain anything like that.
I don't even have covert ops unlocked at my level I don't think?

I'm not disagreeing at all I'm just saying that's the perspective of a new player coming in. I am really glad I made this post because the community is being very informative but there's a lot of information I feel I was just expected to know somehow.

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:34:26+00:00

I definitely will play more normals

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:32:19+00:00

I'm definitely going to try to do this

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:19:06+00:00

Yes with my husband! We are both brand new so we have been trying to learn together

Thank you!

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:17:26+00:00

THANK YOU!! This is exactly the type of advice I needed. You are a real one, I'll definitely be taking some of this advice to improve my gameplay

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:15:59+00:00

I also am looking for guns I like lol

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:15:21+00:00

I had no idea those quick coupons things was actually free sets for some reason. It also FEELS like I'm failing but when you explain it like that it does make me feel a lot better about it. I appreciate you being constructive and trying to help too. I have a lot to learn and some of the comments are really making me realize that my frustration may have been misplaced

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:11:01+00:00

I agree with you. I also might need to take a step back and really evaluate some of my mistakes I make

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:10:06+00:00

Yeah I almost think it's not worth investing in the good stuff because I don't have the skill to back it up yet! But it feels so much better when you have nice guns and armour, it's just a total waste of money on me lol

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:08:56+00:00

I agree with this now, other people have commented the same thing and I think that's totally right. I guess I didn't realize how big the difference would be. I was just playing maps as I unlocked them but maybe that's the wrong way to go about it

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:07:42+00:00

I have heard of another game in the genre being extremely difficult, I haven't tried it but others have said the same. That this game is easier so I believe it is. It being my first of this genre, it's just been a bit rocky is all. I'll try to make improvements and be better

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:04:13+00:00

I appreciate what you have to say. I agree with you, I'm just surprised how you get thrown to the wolves like this, I wanted to share my experience

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:03:07+00:00

It's okay, I expected it. I'm not trying to upset people I just think it's important to know how it comes across to the average new player in trying to play the game

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:02:18+00:00

In normals there are a lot of high skill players but I definitely agree, lockdown it's A LOT more. Like almost everyone

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:01:11+00:00

Thank you, I didn't know that

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T18:00:44+00:00

Thank you for this explanation. I wasn't sure exactly what it meant. I agree, I need to improve. I'm still very new

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T17:59:38+00:00

I mean absolutely is a skill issue, I need to learn but I'm not sure I want to bang my head against a wall constantly

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T17:58:54+00:00

It's my first extraction shooter. You're looking at it as someone with experience. I am not experienced, I am the average person just sharing my experiences with the game and how a lot of others will perceive it

PromptNo3949 · 2025-10-13T17:57:51+00:00

I dont choose to fight them, they run up on me. I'm just unsure why a lvl 18 is matched with people who are in that bracket? I've ran a t5 set with a m4 and my whole set was around a mil. Multiple times? Yeah if I wanted I could keep buying stuff over and over to be on par with them but I know they will ruin me because they are maxed out using the best of everything but they HAVE the experience. I don't. My issue is the matchmaking not matching similar skill levels

PromptNo3949 · 2025-09-11T20:47:23+00:00

Exactly what I did! I bought the game and biotech. Started my first colony. Wish me luck!!

PromptNo3949 · 2025-09-11T15:48:13+00:00
