What happens if there are no players online for a match? Do you play AI?
Do you need your phone or it had games already in it
Thoughts on top tier weapons
If you have a buddy, can you choose to play with them?
Thanks for the tips! FYI, this game also works locally with two Quests on the same account.
So when it comes to hiding shots I prefer to use the barricade with a grenade to distract my target rather than using the nova launcher
I know a way on how to not get trapped in if you have the regular shield you can throw it at the shots the opponent is shooting
Definitely need a lot of space for this game when it gets intense
I can't seem to unequip a weopon how do I
One thing I have found that works well for me is to stand on something that makes me taller when setting up the floor and drawing the play space. You then step down off of the object to play and it makes it easier to duck down really low to duck under any objects fired. “
I just spam the hammer grenade since no one uses it
A little tip is get one weapon that’s absolutely dominant and build your loadout around it. I use lance, so I wait until 2 lances have spawned, then I use both at the same time (crossing it on the enemy area as much as possible) to put out 4 simultaneous beams, but grenades also work with this, anything that’s not single shot would work
I got an oculus ad in the beginning lol
3:42 you can also use the beam weapon cause it has 2 shots
I'm not sure why ppl don't do this about ever but YOU CAN GRAB THE OTHER PERSONS GRENADES AND THROW THEM BACK!!
Skip to second 1:00
Not tips common sense
TIP: to get a REALLY good grenade toss, count down from three after you trigger it, on 2, throw it in a large arc. If done correctly the bomb will explode RIGHT behind the enemy, causing massive damage from bullets they can’t see.
Surprised jack isn’t here
Started playing this game today. Probably the most addictive game I’ve played in a while lol
Thanks for the tips mate, this game is really fun I just bought it and watched your video and I got better!
My strats are throw an open sheild
Place down the big sqaure sheild and shoot they heavy thru it by putting ur arm thru it always gets them
use the grenade launcher with the main gun they shoot the same and powerful damage
and using double shotguns with the gernade that explodes the little pellets
Just started playing this, I think its the best game on Quest right now. So far I like using both heavy pistols, the rest I am still messing around with.
BRO so I bought acron and not satisfied with the purchase then I refund it ok so acron was 20 dollars and I refund it then I buy blaston which was 10 dollars right? And I enjoy this game more then acron LIKE OMG!!!!! I HAVE SO MUCH SO MUCH TO SAY ABOUT BLASTON OMG
Preparing for that tournament! I’m gonna win it!
Why am I watching this. I am an overlord and in the top 100.
