Being a new player in any game has its challenges because you might not know what features are available to you or what to do in specific circumstances. Battlebit Remastered is one of the games with too many components, thus while understanding such aspects is useful for some individuals, not knowing them could be a nightmare for beginners. In this guide, we will try to cover some essential information that everyone should know about Battlebit Remastered, as well as provide some tips and tricks for novices.
Tips & Tricks for New Players
Before starting the game, you need to familiarize yourself with a few tips and tricks. Although playing a game is the greatest method to understand it, there are a few things you should know first. The most basic information that should be known by everyone is the classes in the game. There are six main classes available in BattleBit Remastered: Leader, Assault, Medic, Engineer, Support, and Recon.
- Squad Leader: This class is in charge of ‘leading the squad’ into battle by deciding where to attack by hitting the ‘ping’ button while focusing on a target. The Squad Leader has access to tools like the Air Drone and the Bino Soflam, both of which are useful for keeping an eye on the opposing team from a safe distance.
- Assault: Assault is the “default” class for players who only wish to use normal weapons and gain some kills.
- Medic: The Medic class is in charge of everyone’s health in the region around them, but they are also prepared for battle with either SMGs or PDWs.
- Engineer: The Engineer class is the soldier who holds your cover together with duct tape and super glue, but they also have access to hefty explosives such as RPGs and Anti Vehicle Grenades.
- Support: The Support class is in charge of carrying the heavy load, applying suppressive fire with the heavy weapons, tossing grenades right and left, and ensuring the safety of your squads in battle.
- Recon: The Recon class acts as a personal overwatch, eliminating adversaries from distances of up to 100 meters while protecting all of your team members. The Recon class can also gain access to high-tech weapons like the Air Drone, useful for snooping on enemies to determine their location, the MDX-201, which fools enemies into thinking it’s a sniper, and the Grappling Hook, which makes it simpler to gain the high ground for straightforward shots.
Now that you learned classes, let’s get to the tips & tricks.
- Fix your HUD/UI and remove markers.
The HUD in Battlebit Remastered is very busy with lots of colors during the battles. So, it might get confusing. Luckily, the game lets you change the color and opacity of most markers. You just need to open your settings and change the color in the Gameplay tab.
- Change your appearance and wear armor to strengthen your character.
There are lots of armors that you can choose in the character screen with different features. While some armor is good for speed, others are good for carrying more ammo or being more resistant to fire. It is always a good idea to choose one according to your game plan.
- Use bandages to revive your allies.
You can revive any of your teammates at any time throughout the battle, and they can also revive you. Every player has access to the bandages to stabilize the bleeding condition of yourself or an ally. However, keep in mind that you have a limited amount of bandages and you should use them strategically.
- Watch out for deteriorating buildings.
You will see that there are a lot of buildings while you are in the battle, most of them are destructible. Either your opponents can shoot at the building to break it down, or it will keep crumbling over time. The buildings might collapse if they get too much damage. For that reason, you should try to stay away from those buildings as much as you can.
- Place hidden respawn beacons for your team.
Your squad will benefit from a reinforced or concealed spawn beacon when defending or attacking a significant flag. However, it is important to find a hidden spot to place it because the beacon will make a buzzing sound that could be heard by your opponents and they might try to destroy it.
- Use your microphone to talk in squad/local chat.
It is important to be in contact with other people while you are in the game. If you hold the key B, you can talk with your squad. And if you hold V you can talk in local chat.
- Reload your weapons carefully and merge mags.
One of the things you should be careful about in Battlebit Remastered is reloading your ammo. In contrast to the majority of other games, you run the risk of running out of ammunition if you reload too frequently. To avoid this, press the key P to marge your half-full mags.
- Call in supply drops for your team.
You can call a supply drop by using your middle mouse. Choose it and find a location, a crate will fall down from the sky and you can resupply all of your weapons and equipment by looting it.
- Pin enemies and places.
You can mark enemies and places on the map for your teammates to see and gather around. The default key for PC is Q, but you should still check your settings to see what is the key set on your computer.
- Place Sledgehammers and Explosives on the buildings to destroy the walls.
You can destroy the walls of some buildings by using sledgehammers or explosives. Doing so can be a good way to find a hidden enemy.
- Keep in mind that long-range scopes might give you away.
You might be the type of player who likes to shoot from a distance, but you need to be careful when using long-range scopes. These weapons are visible to everyone when you use them, therefore those weapons might reveal your location to your opponents if you use them too much.
- Use dummies to trick your opponents.
Placing bait dummies and hiding in a nearby place is a good tactic to trick your enemies into their own doom. The other team members might see them as a player and reveal their locations to shoot them.
- Use Grappling Hooks to climb on top of the buildings.
The leader, Assault, and Recon classes have access to grappling hooks. They can use it to easily climb on top of higher places like buildings.
- Practice any weapon you want in Shooting Range.
Shooting Range allows players to test classes, load-outs, and all weapons. Testing those features before getting into the actual game might be helpful for beginners to get used to the game mechanics and learn about the elements of the game.
- Place fortifications to cover yourself.
You can place barricades to help you avoid some attacks when you are in a battle. The barricades are instantly created by the Support class.
Conclusion
These are some of the important tips that should be known by novice players to get used to the gameplay quicker and easier.
