Spam explosives with demolitionists, shoot through walls with mg3, and exploit the flanks 3. Wear a gas mask to suppress your whiny character's voice 4. Don't use the SKS and avoid the m16a2 (it's only gud because of its velocity and security think it's a 5.56 weapon) 5. Whenever you team kill someone, say sorry you prick Overall: Stop being useless and play however you want. Games in IS are only won by teamwork, using your utility, and outsmarting the enemy. Also, stop TKing me just because I want to play roblox after each game.
@@stefanSS1480 ya pretty much, I used to hate the things when they were done to me. The problem is that the longer I played, the more I realized just how messed up the maps, guns, and spawns. You don't even need to actually spawn kill to get a lot of kills. Rocket barrages are pretty at spawn killing without you being there. Basically, I'm a toxic nerd like you said.
5:30 it should also be noted (you kind of mention this later but just quickly) that you are seen coming out of smoke before you can see, this means anyone pushing through smoke is at an automatic disadvantage coming out of it.
Having your compass toggled in the settings is super helpful for call outs. I use compass direction all the time in call-outs. Even the number bearing occasionally. I must say that I've also noticed a lot more of the player base has started using mics and communicating. I'm happy to see this because it really makes the game more fun.
I have 300 hours. Some times i hate this game, but i really addicted to it :) I think this video must view for everyone, specially about how to throw smokes. 70 % new player throw smoke just around self legs and think that is a good cover :) I telling every time: "throw smoke like you throwing HE grenade, just throw it to the enemy ! Not for your self !!!"
I am so good at this game I'm almost too good. I always surprise myself by how much better I get just by taking a break from the game. My only advice to anyone reading this who finds themselves sucking at this game; always keep your gun up (don't sprint) through entry ways and around corners, stick to walls and cover, drop to prone when being shot at if there is no cover and/or if you know where you're being shot from, when you hear footsteps slow down so they can't hear yours and scan and check map for teammates, use full auto when you're in an enclosed space or for covering fire at close to mid range and semi for everything else (always be aware of your select fire), close doors behind you unless there is teammates in tow, turn off ear ringing sound, always get a gas mask and grenade, holographic/red dot with 3x magnifier + light armor and light ammo carrier, and last but not least, stay frosty
As a veteran I approve this, but want to add one very important detail: CHECK YOUR MAP! Bind it to some comfortable button and check it constantly, I extract information about lanes, situation on OBJ (should I attack now or wait, what my team is doing) it increases my awareness, even if I hear footsteps I can check if its friend or foe. The classic situation of NOT to do: your OBJ is being taken, I check the map and see 3-6 teammates who just calmly hang around and do nothing whatsoever to defend the point, nothing infuriates me more in this game, I just collapse and RQ. Check the damn MAP!
Honestly the first 13 seconds are more than enough advice!! Thanks for the help, really appreciate this!! This tip helped me to achieve my goals and become a better player in Sandstorm 😂
Mostly an R6 player here... just got the game cuz it was 50% of on steam... so far I am really liking it. These were really useful did not know most of the. Noticed most of these were about push... the comp mode is Frontline though any tips on that specifically? Well done mate
Ruben Spyckerelle firefight is comp* but yeah only push as it’s biggest game mode and only thing I really play. Personally I don’t play enough firefight to really know any good tips
@@rubberbumm Firefight, from the few games I've played, it's really all about map knowledge. You can still use a lot talked about in the video in Frontlines, but as Gibs said Push is the core mode.
Never knew you could crouch jump in this game. NWI really optimised the game a lot. Good progress. Shows they are really working towards the console release.
I gotta be honest. Other than not being able to kill anyone. I've also managed to TK pretty often because I seem to hear someone coming around, thinking its an enemy and shoot them, even though its not on purpose. And I don't have any way of telling them its by mistake. Feeling guilty about it, I leave the game. I want to play and get good, but I know I'll do this again. It genuinely sucks , to me and the victim. :(
@@PDfrens Dwight Schrute is a character in a tv show "The Office" and some might think he was psycho but actually he was arguably the smartest and most cunning person of the show
@@brysonbradshaw3621 lol I didn't, if I had copied from the internet, it would have a way better vocabulary and also would be accurate. This is my take on Dwight
The "smoking truck while you're behind the cover" tactic doesn't even work, because truck's lmg can basically penetrate anything, and you won't stand a chance smoking it
Every single tip in this game is going to have edge cases. However, a victory can often times mean a slight leg up on the enemy. So, if one had a smoke and they were in that position and facing that truck, that would be a better option then smoking on your team. Sure the truck could just keep shooting but he's now less likely to hit. It's about continually increasing your odds. Obviously destroying or stealing the truck would be better, I don't think anyone is going to disagree with that.
OBJ is not meant to be said as an acronym, it’s short for objective. It’s called “military short hand”. It enables quick note taking and easier to read op orders or maps etc. It takes longer to say the entire acronym than just to say objective 😂
The fact that sprint delay canceling and crouch jumping are the first two tips speaks volumes as to this games realism :D I knew it was gonna be a sort of half way point between more mil sim type stuff and arcade twitch shooters but damn. theres wayyyy to much running going on...
I'd rather support the team than carry the damn game cause of the headaches i'm getting. Too much stress when the team counting on you. And i'm at the first spot in the scoreboard most of the time I guess take one lose for another.
As a insurgency:sandstorm veteran( +1.1k hours) i completely agree, those are all great tips but you missed probably the most important one - learning the map
Great video but just have to say that the whole point of abbreviations is to make a word shorter and while "obj" is shorter in written form actually saying "oobeejaay" is about as long if not longer than just saying "object".
The easiest way for me to do the sprint cancel is by tapping A or D from the sprint with crouch. This makes it to where you never slide on accident by doing a tiny sidestep into the crouch. It doesnt add time to the cancel and generally i win all my sprint cancel fights.
It's pretty basic. Light and heavy armour generally offer the same protection against 5.56mm and 7.62mm rifle rounds - one shot stopped, next shot dead. Heavy armour offers more protection against explosives. I've emptied an entire magazine of 9mm Tariq rounds into an ememy's heavy armour and he stayed up, too. The speed benefit you get from being lightweight from no armour at all is worthy of consideration. Helmet cosmetic items offer no protection against head-shots.
thank you for your help but could you make a video on certain strats on like each maps if thats possible through your gameplays then i can tweak that a bit
I have a question: You have bad days in this game ? I mean,days or rounds when you can't do anything useful,and end up being useless? I sometimes have...and it is not nice...
I'm still learning how recoil control. Im used to controller where you pull down immeadiately to control recoil. Do you let a few bullets fly before compensating for recoil on a mouse?
Gun have recoil if u check on the beach be there a alien zap gun, cod modded, nah I lost it. Battlefield 2 had those cool mechanics also strategy, but strategy does depend on yo smart thinkinngg ..
I just started playing today. So this is obviously going to help me a lot cause I died a lot today and got pissed. Now I know I have to play smart and not fast like cod. By the way I like the AKM and mk17

300 hours in Sandstorm and just now found out you can stick C4 to objects. Thanks Gibs
HA same I remember when I found that out
@@MGE-Gibs 500 hours for me and I didnt Know that 😂👍
620hrs and found it myself some week ago, still embarassed about it
Tell me about it. I'm past 1500 hours in Insurgency and I've only found out about that C4 animation a few weeks now
1 million hours and I literally just found out you could do this
1. Spam artillery, poopy gas, and helicopters (cuz their broken af and you get 2 of them) near spawn or path to enemy point.
2. Spam explosives with demolitionists, shoot through walls with mg3, and exploit the flanks
3. Wear a gas mask to suppress your whiny character's voice

My problem is, everytime i see a enemy i freak out trying to shoot him first but i just cant hit anything because im like "OH GOD OH GOD SHOOT SHOOT"
I have unmaped my crouch slide to prevent any fuckery. Helps a lot.
The "smoking truck while you're behind the cover" tactic doesn't even work, because truck's lmg can basically penetrate anything, and you won't stand a chance smoking it
dot tod you ever think that they can’t shoot you if they can’t see you?
better than nothing but i prefer to destroy that truck/crew and or steal it

obj is not a good adjective to use because it has the same amount of syllables as the word.
"Point"
Obj has a gradual progression on how the mouth opens while objective jumps up and down which can feel harder.
abbreviation*
Good tips dude, also that clear with the shotgun near the end was arousing
100% the best Insurgency youtuber. Should have way more subs
This video is important for me because i buy the game right now and i want to become better. Thank you ♥️
I actually disabled sliding, it's cool but I don't have any use for it most of the time

Know the map,fast reaction and aim down sight as u move
Your landmine idea looks really good. I'll have to give that a try.
pro tip, climb on the shelves on kitchen counters, crouching between the shelf and the ceiling. pretty much no one sees you
now that's a clean shotgun cap at the 11:00
As a insurgency:sandstorm veteran( +1.1k hours) i completely agree, those are all great tips but you missed probably the most important one - learning the map

Great video Gibs keep up the awesome work
Great video but just have to say that the whole point of abbreviations is to make a word shorter and while "obj" is shorter in written form actually saying "oobeejaay" is about as long if not longer than just saying "object".
I just unbounded the crouch/slide to just binding crouch instead
did the same much easier i found slide to be annoying
@@rubberbumm yup it got me killed a lot because the sliding was so wonky that even though you stopped sprinting it would slide you anyway
Wait you can do that ? Wow I will unbind slide now.
slide saved my life quite a few times. i usually slide across chokepoints that are camped by snipers. sprinting is just too slow
@@AyedTH-cam yea I actually binded slide to alt and c has always be my crouch
You know it takes less time to say objective than O B J
That last shotgun clip,damn.
Awesome video, dude! Subscribed!!
You know this video was born out of frustration from teammates being shitty at the game lmao 😂
The easiest way for me to do the sprint cancel is by tapping A or D from the sprint with crouch. This makes it to where you never slide on accident by doing a tiny sidestep into the crouch. It doesnt add time to the cancel and generally i win all my sprint cancel fights.

Great stuff Gibs! Hey, what would you say are the best optics to use overall?
Mass D E I C I D E 1.5x for insurgents and 2x for security for ARs
You do you bro, I use iron sights sometimes to save some points but a good 1x or 2x don't hurt.
Crazy I never knew you could plant C4s on walls. Quite cool.
Can you make an armor guide (if it's worth going over)?
