Barracks: Unlocking Skills and Items

Newly created characters start off with a limited number of weapons, attachments, and gear items available to them.



With each new level, you are awarded a skill point which enables you to unlock various items and skills in the Barracks area of the Main Menu.







Skills take 1 - 3 points to unlock, depending on their impact on gameplay (bigger & better stuff costs more).



You must buy 2 points worth of skills or items to unlock the next tier. For example, in order to unlock Tier 2, you must spend 2 skill points in Tier 1.



Note - We may change where skills and items appear in the skill trees and their point cost throughout beta.

-Note that the abilities of ALL unlocked Medical Kits are included in the Medical Kit you take into the field. You do not have to choose between the skills/items unlocked.



Supply Points

Low on ammo? Taken some damage and don’t have a medkit? No problem – just head to the nearest supply point!



Identify supply points on your mini-map or CNI by its unique icon – a blue & white hexagon. To help them stand out, the supply point crate models flash and glitter (showing just how magical they are!).







To use a supply point, move up to within arm’s reach of one and hold down the O button when the action icon appears at the bottom of your screen.



You’ll see your health increase over time and a reload bar will appear to show the progress of your reloading. All weapons and equipment that use ammo are reloaded at the same time.



Be careful – supply points are popular hunting grounds for snipers (and worse)!





Bunkers

Bunkers are forward emplacements used by the defending team to repel or slow down the initial attacker push in 128 & 256-player games. Defending players will often start out the game spawning into a bunker assigned to their squad.



All players spawning into a bunker will be in the main bunker area, where they can move the camera around with the right analog stick.



Pressing the O button at any time will exit the bunker at the exit location (you’ll see a transparent blue column showing this location while still inside the bunker).



Pressing the TRIANGLE button cycles between the main bunker area and the bunker’s turret. You can only get into the turret if it’s operational (i.e. not blown up) and there’s no one else in it.



While controlling the turret, use the right analog stick to aim the turret weapons, R1 to fire the mini-gun (there’s a short "spin up" time before bullets come out) and R2 to fire the un-guided anti-vehicle rockets. Rockets fired by the bunker turret are self-stabilized and fly in a straight line at the target.



Bunkers are a boon for defenders not just for the forward spawn ability and firepower, but because they also heal and resupply any defending team player that enters them.



Attackers can blow up a bunker by placing a charge on the power generator at the rear of the bunker (like supply points, they flash and glitter). Just run up to the generator and hold in O until the charge is planted (you’ll see a bar fill showing your progress). Watch your back – you’re helpless while you place that charge!







Defenders can disarm a placed bomb before it detonates by moving to it and holding in the O button until the bar fills. It is advised to shoot the annoying SOB who placed the charge before trying to disarm it.



If a bunker is destroyed, defenders with repair kits can repair it back to functionality by equipping the repair kit, then holding in the FIRE button while within arm’s reach of any point of the destroyed bunker. A progress bar shows how much you’ve repaired and how much is left to do.



Attackers can also try to blow up the turret on top of the bunker. While heavy sniper rifles and machineguns will eventually do enough damage to kill a turret, rockets are usually the best way to do it. (Rockets doing low damage in the beta is a known issue and is being investigated.)



Destroyed turrets can be repaired by defenders by climbing up the ladders, equipping the repair kit, and holding in the FIRE button while within arm’s reach of the destroyed turret. Repairing a destroyed bunker automatically repairs the turret too.

AA Batteries

The AA batteries are battlefield assets that belong to the defending team. While operational, they shoot down any attempt to reinforce from the air as well as shoot down any incoming attacker air strikes or attacker UAV sensor requests.



To enable air strikes and forward spawns (parachutes and helicopter insertions), attackers must blow up the defender’s AA battery.







Find the AA battery by following its icon – a missile with wiggly marks around it. For attackers, this icon is red, for defenders it’s blue.



To blow up the AA battery, get close to the generator on the back and hold in the O button while the bar fills up. Once that’s done – get a safe distance away and try to keep the enemy from disarming your bomb before it explodes.



Defenders can disarm the bomb before it explodes by moving up to the location and holding in the O button until the disarm bar fills.



If the bomb has already destroyed the AA battery, defenders with repair kits can repair it back to life. See the repair kit description near the beginning of the guide.



Squad leaders can call in air strikes by holding in the left d-pad, selecting the type of strike with the L2 and R2 buttons, and selecting the target area by pointing at it and pressing the R1 button.





Sensors

The defending team also has a sensor array that allows their leaders to scan the battlefield, showing the position of attackers.







The sensor array icon looks like a satellite dish. The icon is red for attackers and blue for defenders.



To blow up the sensor array, get close to the generator on the back and hold in the O button while the bar fills up. Once that’s done – get a safe distance away and try to keep the enemy from disarming your bomb before it explodes.



Defenders can disarm the bomb before it explodes by moving up to the location and holding in the O button until the disarm bar fills.



If the bomb has already destroyed the sensor array, defenders with repair kits can repair it back to life. See the repair kit description near the beginning of the guide.





Mortars

Attackers have air strikes and defenders have the mortar. If the attacking team is able to destroy the defending team’s mortar, the defending team will be unable to call in mortar strikes on the enemy.



You can find the location of the mortar on the CNI – press the Select button on the controller and look for the icon that looks like a silhouette of a mortar. It also appears on your mini-map if you’re close enough.



Just like an AA battery, get near the mortar’s generator and plant the bomb by holding in the O button until the bar fills.







Also like the AA battery, defenders can defuse the bomb and repair the destroyed mortar asset with repair kits.



Squad leaders can call in mortar barrages by holding in the left d-pad, selecting which type of barrage to fire with the L2 and R2 buttons, and selecting the target area by pointing at it and pressing the R1 button.





Gates

Attackers can really open the flow of the battlefield by destroying the defending team’s gates located at strategic points on the map. Destroying a gate allows not only characters but vehicles to pass through, which can turn the tide of battle.



Just like bombing any other asset, move up to the gate and hold in the O button until the bar fills, then clear the area and wait till it explodes.



Defenders can disarm the bomb by moving to the gate and holding in the O button until the disarm bar fills.



Destroyed gates can be repaired back into existence with a repair kit.

[ippanis]

XShava, poista tämä viesti kun on tieto tullut perille, mutta ajattelin sen tässä ketjussa mainita, että on hyvä laittaa kokemuspisteiden vielä paljonko tavara painaa. Näitä tietoja kun ei pelissä mainita vasta kun on pisteet tuhlannu niin olisi hyvä tietää etukäteen.

Esim.

Rynnäkkökivääri ( Assault Rifle): etukahva
– Etukahva vähentää rekyylin vaikutusta, joten tuli on tarkempaa sekä paikaltaan että liikkeestä.
Erikoisala: Vyörytys
Hinta: 2
Paino: 100c

[Miklu]

Se ei iteasiassa ole paino vaan kuinka paljon varuste maksaa. Yksittäisen taistelijan varustus saa maksaa max. 3400cc. Tuolla estetään se ettei voi olla kaikki parhaat varusteet ja päälle vielä lääkintä ja korjausvermeet.

[Methos]

Noita painoja/hintaa ei tunnu netistä vielä löytyvän, niin keräillään tähän niitä.

myrkkysavukranaatti 600c
panssarimiina 600c
jalkaväkimiina 800c
lmg refleksitähtäin 100c
lmg etukahva 200c

Liiketunnistin 800c
Tunnistinhäiritsin 600c
Miinaharava 600c
Äänipaikannin 200c

Rynnäkkökiväärin;
Raskas vaimennin 200c
Optinen 4x tähtäin 200c
Etukahva 200c

[ippanis]

Lähitaistelu:

Konepistooli - 400c
Refleksitähtäin - ei täyttä varmuutta paljon vie krediittejä
Haulikko - 600c
Äänenvaimennin - 200c

Kenttätuki
Lääkintäruisku - 1000c

[Tumu]

Sniper (S.V.E.R.):
Silencer - 200c (ei käy tier 4 aseeseen)
Foregrip - 200c (ei käy tier 2 ja tier 4 aseeseen)
Bipod - 200c (ei käy tier 4 aseeseen, tier 4 aseessa on mukana tuleva)

AGVK - 1300c
Variable Power Scope - +200c (tier 2 ja tier 4 aseet)

[Vigi_]

Sniper:

Variable Power Scope - 500c (vain tier 4 ase)

korjataan tota senverran et agvk normi scopella 1300c
ja säädettävän scopen kans 1500c

[Tunnettu]

Varmaan nyt on jo tiedossa kuinka paljon pisteitä pelissä saa?

Jossain vaiheessa kuulin et maksimi olisi 40 pistettä (lvl 40), mut mielestäni joku sanoi saanneensa vielä tuonkin jälkeen pisteitä?

ELI MIKÄ ON PELIN MAKSIMI PISTEMÄÄRÄ tavaroiden ostoon?

[TommiR]

ELI MIKÄ ON PELIN MAKSIMI PISTEMÄÄRÄ tavaroiden ostoon?

Eikös se LVL 60 ole maksimi, joten 60 pistettä voi saada.

[Grando]

Mikä mahtaa olla S.V.E.R.:llä lähipuolustuksen Kurtis 45ACP:n paino? Itselleni mahtuu mukaan vielä 400c painoa, joten aika oleellista sen kannalta että kannattaako se hankkia.

[Miklu]

Mikä mahtaa olla S.V.E.R.:llä lähipuolustuksen Kurtis 45ACP:n paino? Itselleni mahtuu mukaan vielä 400c painoa, joten aika oleellista sen kannalta että kannattaako se hankkia.

Ensinnäkin se ei ole paino vaan kyseisen tavaran hinta. Taitaa olla 300cc kustannus. Betassa ainakin...

[FinNiKaMa]

Ensinnäkin se ei ole paino vaan kyseisen tavaran hinta. Taitaa olla 300cc kustannus. Betassa ainakin...

Joo taitaa olla 300 vaikka muutamilla sivuilla mainittu että olisi 600c mutta vaikka omistan itsekin tuon en ole nyt varma kumpaakaan suuntaan, johtuu siitä ettei aseella juuri tee mitään. Ostin ton ja siihen silun (200c), ideana vähän sniikkailla. Yhden sabon jaksoin puoliksi kokeilla, tuloksena yksi tappo vaikka pääsin useasti lataamaan takaapäin koko lippaan, en sitten tiedä enkö vaan osunut vai eikö tehonnut, edestäpäin en voittanut yhtäkään kamppailua vaikka pääsin aloittamaan tulituksen ekana.

Itse olen tässä personal-osiossa jo hankkinut pitkän ja nopean puukon jolla tekeekin sitten jo paljon mutta Kurtis vaihtuu ampumanopeuteen ja silu hankitaan pistooliin sitten jos en muuta keksi, kai sillä osuu päähän sen kerran yhtä hyvin kuin tuolla Kurtiksellakin.
