Patch180 video and text guide
Hello and welcome to my patch 180 guide.
Since there have been several requests for something like this and several questions on what I do to survive and also score high I decided to make this guide for you.
I'll be breaking down this guides written part into 4 sections; Powerups, weapons, RPG and monsters.
Keep in mind, this is how I prefer to do things and it suits my playstyle, by no means does this work for everyone but I hope it can help atleast.
Also this is subject to change as things might change on the server.

Re: Patch180 video and text guide
FYI if you use 3 single sturdies and put them on another weapon of power, it has the same effect as the iron but you can use that slot for something else. I find using the propulsion only sends things flying away from you including the power ups and artifacts. I don't think I ever use the retaliation power up. I also don't bother with speed and pick a random spot and just kill from that location. I still get a pretty high score. 2 infinity power ups for twice the weapon speed. The shield and health regen I put on the same wop as the sturdies. I've also just used an MP5 -1 and was just shy of 10k. Just some more food for thought if you want to try out some other points of view.

Different players have different playstyles and that's perfectly fine.Gothicize wrote:FYI if you use 3 single sturdies and put them on another weapon of power, it has the same effect as the iron but you can use that slot for something else.

This guide was to show what I do since people requested on several occasions to shed some light on what I do.
Just like to note though by sitting in one spot you'll never be able to score as rediculously high as I do but not everyone wants that anyway so that is fine.

Re: Patch180 video and text guide
The almost 10k score was with a MP5-1 and I stood still. The idea behind it is to let others get some kills so they can gain some exp. as well which will keep people wanting to play. If the higher levels people would not kill anything for the first few waves that would allow the new players to gain some exp. and improves their morale. The other thing I do is offer an infinity power up before loading a second one and that's because I'm not greedy. Do I need to go and get 20k on every map, the answer is no. I don't bother with a flak cause it's gotten very boring and does not provide a challenge. I'll even give a combat shotty of reju away. I also don't use the wand and will give that away first chance I get. I also spend more time explaining things to people on the map; example "use the purple kit before using the gold kit, MP +4 would become an MP+5 and then golded would have 1 more slot then an MP+4 golded and then purpled to a +5".

Re: Patch180 video and text guide
Did you read the whole thing or just half ass it? If you actually read it there was a couple of parts that was related to the guide.

10k with any MP5 is really hard...not.Gothicize wrote:Did you read the whole thing or just half ass it? If you actually read it there was a couple of parts that was related to the guide.
There is plenty of people who let lowbies get kills in early waves and yes that includes me, but do I always do it? No. Do I have to do it? No.
There is plenty of people who share their inf powerups before loading a second.
I never use a wand either unless I join really lategame and don't bother with powerups and just medic it.
I'm sure I've spend more time explaining things then you even if there were 10 of you.
General information about the patch have been posted and mentioned in other threads and this thread was not intended for it.
So there was exactly 0 related to my guide in your post and all I see is you trying to make yourself look like your a saint.
Your helpfull yes but that doesn't mean you can go and throw mud at those who occasionally want to go and score high nor does that mean that those people aren't helpfull.
So keep this on topic in this thread and discuss other things in another or make another if there isn't one for it.

Please don't make Baron or I have to delete posts, or lock this thread Gentlemen.
I shouldn't have to state there are different types of play styles, and then on top of that variations to each play style. People will agree, and disagree over this topic and are free to have there own opinions on them. However I feel if you have a strong disagreement on something making your own thread or guide would be the best action to be most helpful. This would leave each guide open for questions pertaining to whatever is entailed in it for newer, or less experienced players.
Baron and I are very grateful for what both of you do around this community. Let's not let differences in opinion get the better of us.
Thank You,
