I used to get killed almost every encounter. I almost quit playing this game cause it was so frustrating but I learned to have more patience and not run into houses or open fields blindly. Now I get 1 or 2 kills per encounter lol
The first time you wipe a squad of 3 and your buddies watching feels so good. Call outs are clutch. Alarm traps and such are your BEST FRIEND. Be patient!!
You don’t cover this anymore but I’ve enjoyed the content so far! I just found this game and started playing. I can’t get off it. Your videos have been entertaining and informative so I appreciate your work. Hope all is well with you brother🙏🏾
Love the tactical videos, improved my game so much. So excited for the video to come and to use all different types of gameplay to dominate Norway!! I'm a new player started a couple months ago and I can't get enough!!
I do too I wish they got rid of portable siginals. Only those who play a lot, or pay a lot can afford taking in 2 of them every single match. The signal detector as a location you go up to and have to hold in and then it pings. I’m cool with that . Cool down times and what not you gotta get there first. Cool But portable ones you carry into the match man sucks. Those of us who have maybe 4 in our inventory. Running around get the advantage of stealth stripped from us against someone with an advantage of experience, gear and now the exact location of where you are cause let’s be real. Transmitters are a good counter but if you can’t go in with ports every round chances are your not buying or crafting a lot of transmitters. Not trying to bitch I love the dynamic and what not. Just would be cool for them to create another separate game mode specifically to eliminate ports. Yeah I get it, this game is Camo heavy. And that sucks. But still this game kinda markets as a post apocalyptic . Not everyone will carry a radio. Idk Sorry for the rant
@McNastyxx95 they answered your prayers with Jammers. They're cheap, give protection and alert you to people close by. Also, everything is free now cause of elimination and shootout. When I was playing you had to earn Materials, now you get stuff for free and without encounters, so there is that. I haven't played in a long time and I think I still have over 7,000 pings. Thousands of armor plates, nukes, grenades and etc each. I did that when you had to win and leave alive. You can do that without even having to spend materials now.
yes! Please do make a video for us looters that just wanna go in grab and leave. Defensive tips would be great too if your being hunted or chased down. I Enjoyed this video!
I've only been playing vigor for a couple months and I'm worse at it than most people especially in a gun fight. Being a huge fan of the game days gone i shouldn't be so easily startled but everytime i see someone im so startled and clumsy i couldn't hit a house. I'm a sneaky looter i really appreciate the quality of the video and attention to detail game on
Dude, thank you for that! I know what you mean about Surprise Contact being startling and off putting. A thing that can help with that is having your headsets audio not too loud. Check out my video about headphones. There's advice about what you're talking about in there if I remember correctly, bro. Please lemme know if it helps or not🙏...🤘
@@JealousFist i use surround sound system it works better for me than headphones i couldn't tell were they were coming from with headphones but with surround im right on em. Its not the sound its trying to retaliate too fast and making mistakes and wrong button press because im so startled being shot in the back i know what your talking about tho
Are you able to turn down the volume of it and still play correctly? The gunfire is so loud in this game is hard to not startle if you're not ready for Surprise Contact. I still get startled. They've done a good job with that. Believe it or not a good way to not feel so startled is to be INCREDIBLY active. Simply moving around Norway fast and boldly gives you the upper hand because they have to get out of their comfort zone just to come at you
I am so glad you are planning to do not just tactical stuff and how to use consumable but where and how to get loot! None of that info is available online as far as I'm aware. The wiki is [insert not nice word here] even after 2 years of the game being out, and I don't think anyone else is talking about loot on YT. Thanks, JealousFist!
Absolutely great tips bro loved every bit of the video. One of you partner suggested me this channel and i m happy to be part of this community. Happy gaming bro.
Great player and a very nice person! Different from all the toxic t-bagging tryharders. Keep up the good work! Vigor is what it is thanks to players like you! Thanks for all you do for the comunity.
Thank you, dude! Full disclosure tho: I try to not gloat or Tbag but there are times and people that call for and deserve both of those crimes. When I get someone like that I desecrate their filthy no-good body and commit every videogame atrocity I can think of. I do it with Vigor on my mind, love in my heart and vengeance in my soul 🇳🇴🤘
Damn - I’ve been trying to find good Tutorial Videos on Vigor and so far they have been rather mediocre. But you have a nice and funny style of explaining stuff. Thanks!
@@JealousFist your a legend mate, keep up the great work you obviously take a lot of pride in making your videos It’s a lot of time and hard work But we appreciate it Bro… cheers
@@JealousFist i loved the hole thing man u a funny guy bro i was dieing when you were talking about raising babys i was rolling keep up the great work bro but now that i have played so much and i have watch all your other vids when you talk about the tips my play style matches what your talking about so im just sitting here going yes and yep me to lol
Nice i only want to help you get more viewers so if it helps do that then my job was done right lol i mean i love watching your stuff but my ideas are more about helping you then stuff i want to see . even tho im sure they will all be great vids ether way
Fjellkanten is a funny map to use psd's on. I wanted to check if the cavern exit was clear. I saw someone right on the exit, sneaked inside, pinged again. Still there, I hear literal shots coming off like he's shooting someone else. Well he was, on top of the frigging mountain on the cave LOL
Thank you for the tips . Just started playing Friday.. right now I am just going in to level my base so quick in and outs .. have not tried for the drop yet..but I figure it's pointless till I get good gear
Going for the airdrop is never pointless even if you don't want it. Especially if you're trying to get better at the game. Unless all you care about is kills.
@JealousFist ok I will give it a go .. just been trying to get in get mats and level my base .. cause it seems everyone is using gold and purple gear I kill and I am using white . As I haven't used any of the loot from kills .. kinda saving it all up especially ammo
@JealousFist I will check it out . Not worried about losing gun so much.. just trying to get geared up and before I start trying to get into gun fights .. but thanks I will try that would be good to learn the guns .. thank you
@@JealousFist last time I heard Sumone snooping about outside container, put 2 bear traps on the entrance and waited about 5 mins inside , convinced the dude must have saw the traps and gone I left, I ran out and got 1 tapped, he was setup on a hill waiting for me 🤣 rage quit 🤣
Got this when it first came out, liked the idea of it but there wasn’t much at first to keep you around imo, I’ve came back to the game now and what a hidden gem it is. It sorta plays and reminds me of escape from tarkov,
I haven't played EFT myself but from what I understand if someone likes that game they'll love Vigor😆👍 Right!? Vigor is completely different and REALLY sinks it's teeth into you!
@@JealousFist oh they 100% did. I’ve been binging your channel a little and I remember you explaining what to in certain situations and to take chances. Now I’m having much more fun. Thank you👍
Dude, that's AWESOME! Thank you, man🙏 Soonish I'm doing a video about controller settings and sensitivities. Pretty sure it's gonna be out this week finally🤞🤞🤞
Awesome! I love hearing that kind of stuff, for real! Making these videos is a lot of work and I'm always talking myself out of quitting all this and moving on. Hearing this stuff does help. Thank you.
Which weapons and consumables do you recommend using ? When I played a couple years ago I used to roll out with the Scoped G3 or AUG HBAR, Bandages, and Antibiotics. Lost my knack for those and I’m trying to find a new load out to use. Also great tactics, I tend to use what I learned in the infantry but it doesn’t always translate when fighting some players. Lmao, I hate running into guys who jump around with an ADR like Fortnite and manage to smoke you. Embarrassing as hell. One thing I could add is using subdued or camouflaged cosmetics tended to work for me greatly, I recommend others who are reading this to try and match the foliage or climate with similar colors.
In my experience most actual real infantry training didn't apply to this game. Modern armies rely so much on combined arms and loads of support. Their tactics and doctrines don't apply much. The only real military films/training material I've seen that TOTALLY applies to this game are from WW2. Much of that is VERY applicable because their tools and arms are so similar to the game
@@JealousFist Yes I would agree with you but there’s small unit tactics that every infantryman learns when combined arms outside of platoon or squad level isn’t possible. I could have been more specific with what I meant but from the fireteam level to Individual actions you can translate pretty well. For example, utilizing micro terrain, cover, concealment, clearing urbanized terrain, security, reconnaissance, etc. Individual tasks are the most translatable with this game, you just cant account for many factors that would occur in real life through a screen. The bare bones basics tended to help me the most. I used to play with a good buddy of mine who was also a marine, we would buddy rush, turn and burn during ambushes, use cover by fire or fire and move tactics, pie off corners and houses, cover avenues of approach, set up checkpoints and objective, set up L formation ambush sites… I could go on and on but I would fill your whole comment section. Lol
I may be sick in the head I don’t know. But I would love to see a state where your character limps after taking a certain amount of fall damage (broken/fractured bones) and a consumable such as a splint that would remove the effect. Secondly, maybe a bleeding animation? I want to be able to track my enemies after tagging them by following the blood trail on the snow. Until they use a bandage to stop the bleeding. Maybe bag rarity not just being cosmetic and having increased capacity? Lastly…. FIRE! I want to see devastation caused by fire.
@@JealousFist doesn't sound silly to me JF. In my old world of sport, look good, feel good, play good was a def thing(thank you Callaway). Plus, I now look like I just might know what I'm doing. But I still love t 'terrorising rain jackets' comment. It's very apt.🍻
Dude, not long ago we didn't have Consumable limits in our bags. We'd run around with stacks of Pings and Mortars and all the fun stuff. We'd find those poor RainJackets and set Norway on FIRE. I miss that 😥...🤣👍
Question on portable signal detectors. Can your team see enemy pings or just you. I kept poppin mine and my teammate swore he couldnt see the enemies on his map.
I just got into the game today.. first Match I'm just looting houses and stuff and I've played games like pubg hell even metal gear solid so stealth.. I crouched for most of it and I'm just looting near what looked like a campsite and I see a guy just coming around the corner like 10ft from me I had my Thompson aimed That direction and I just started shooting while getting around a house next to me.. the one mistake I learned from other games I don't rush toward him I go around in a flank... well he knew I was going that way and I hear his footsteps and I'm completely quiet waiting by a tree for him to push that corner and he pushed it while firing with a uzi I returned fire with the Thompson and at killed him now.. I didn't know what the red marker meant at first.. I thought he was just injured so I moved up slowly expecting him just to be aiming at me and my finger was on the RT just ready to shoot well he died so I looked around to make sure I was clear and I got the uzi and a SVU and other things I took it all and I just had a gut feeling someone was near and I got out of there.. I was happy I can't wait to progress further
Do you kill everyone you can in encounters ? I recently re-downloaded Vigor a week ago and so it was nice having a few friendly encounters, on Kjerstin there was like me and 3 other players at the beginning being friendly to each other it was awesome.
It depends. The Airdrop is my goal and first priority. In Solos I rarely clear a lobby, I tend to get 1-3 kills in Solos. Teams is totally different. I only play with a few guys I've known for awhile and they're MONSTERS who like to terrorize the poor RainJackets. Those games it's all about lobby wipes and atrocities can happen 🤣👍
Another great video but got to disagree with the armour plate assessment what it does is allows people to rush at people and basically have more health. The guy in the house you killed would have killed you if it were not for the armour plate you had. It is frustrating for players who don't have the ability to craft them when the sweats run around the map with impunity and multiple armour plates. Personally I don't think they are that useful unless you are the running around killing type of player but it definitely gives that type of player an advantage.
Those are good points. The only thing I would add to What you've said it's that it applies equally to most Consumables. Any Consumable that is good for non-Aggro guys will be good for the Monsters as well. Armor batting no exception. If people don't have Armor yet they should TOTALLY be bringing Painkillers. Almost just as good and cheaper
@@JealousFist Completely agree about painkillers 100 per cent. The difference is they work after the fact and not before which sometimes is the difference.
@@sk8n854 Armour plate plans and parts are non existent, I literally have hundreds of everything else, I'm not a new player but didn't play season 6, I've opened countless crates and have thousands of crowns. The only light at the end of the tunnel is perhaps legacy season 6 which hopefully will be coming next season. I'm all for grinding hard to earn something but the armour plate seems broken/unobtainable. 🤷♂️
You just have to jump up on the tables or desks or counters or whatever is nearby. Look inside the houses with rafters that people have shot you from and look around and you'll see how they did it 💪🤘
@@JealousFist I've had a go in a few and given up, it's usually the single story ones with a little set of rafters. Most infuriating thing is the multiple headshots which seem to work through buildings and rocks and negate recoil 😢😂 cheater's regularly make me wanna stop playing this game it's infuriating solo
I am sooo terrible at throwing Grenades I don’t know how it works the other day a toss one to what the green line say would be out of the windows and I literally rolled out of my hand and landed on the inside window frame and mashed my healthy Norwegian Down to a hair of health then boom one shot through the wall and I was dead yes I was …….YES I WAS 😂 😂 😂 need grenades tips and trucks I watch you throw them through one broken pain in a second story window 🤩 amazing as always great work on the video Th0Rgan1m out stay safe my Fellow Norwegian
You don’t have feel pressured to I just wave my jealous firsts in the air when you get those perfect through the broken pain of a closed window throws lol have a great day man
All you got to do is make sure your name lash is square in the middle of a window pane and not touching any of the window pane holders or whatever those are called🤣
Yes! Biggest one is to realize you're gonna get absolutely owned until you learn how to move around and how to play. This game, quite intentionally, has a steep learning curve. It's supposed to be very hard. And it is. Try to accept right now how frustrating the next few weeks will be and you will be all right. Also, self-serving here, watch all my tactics videos. If you spent an hour, or however long it would take, to watch my tactics videos you will be exposed to and learn information that would take you 6 months of playing to learn on your own through dying over and over again. Treat every corner that you could go around and every house you could enter as if it was real life and some murdering fiend could kill you. If you try to protect yourself in the game like you would in real life that will go very very far. Once you've got a few weeks of playing you'll see what I mean. Welcome to Norway! Good luck and I hope you stay, bro!
@@TRENT698- Thank you, bro! If you remember and are inclined lemme know in awhile what you think of the game. Also, most of my videos are the direct result of questions and ideas from viewers. If you want a topic covered ask and I WILL take it into consideration. I make no promises on doing what you ask but I will actually think about it 👍
@@JealousFist well it seems to be impossible to get any sort of crafting plans anymore. And I was wondering if maybe they changed the way you get them. I can’t craft mortars or any grenades
@@imana3808 Any plan from a BattlePass is only obtainable from unlocking the level in it's Legacy Season or when it's put up for sale in the Store. For a brief few months past BP plans could be gotten from Airdrops but they stopped that with legacy seasons.
@@imana3808 Yes they can. Farm Crowns from Shootout, always collect your Crowns everyday from the Antenna. I know guys that get hundreds of Crowns for free daily by winning games. That's not normal or what most people can pull off but it shows it is obtainable. Work hard and you can get all the good stuff for free. That's the beauty of this games pay model and free to play system.
@rokstarxyz 🤣🤣🤣💪 I got sick of the cheating, the noob shield, the constant nerfs, the devs gaslighting us and then the final straw was them adding in NPC bots to the game. And then my final final straw was them lying to me about it and demanding of me to start making videos again or they would kick me out. I do miss the game terribly but I'm glad I'm gone. While I was obsessed with games and winning I was missing out on what was going on. I liked making videos a lot and want to again but it was like, what to make videos about? I figured that out. I figured out my topic. I've already learned how to make video and all that social Media stuff for it. Right now I'm just learning how to protect myself from what will happen when I do the next project.
are you playing a p.c. version of this game where shit actually works? I dont understand deconstruction anything, all i get is parts, i have 2 million parts
Vigor is console only. To build things from parts go into consumables or weapons, in the loadout menu,and highlight the weapon or gun or whatever. You then hit X to build and A to confirm and it will build it from parts. Whenever you build a gun or consumable or whatever it will always build it from parts if you have parts. It will use materials if you have no parts. So find the SVU n loadouts, highlight it like you would to put it in your bag, but instead of hitting A hit X and then A and it will build one from parts if you have them. Once you have run out of parts you will start paying for them with materials.
I'm using all these consumables constantly in the video. I'm showing real fights using them. What was not clear about what I said with the footage? I always want feedback and perspectives.
