Hey, so this video is getting some traction again for obvious reasons. This is NOT a FACILITIES GUIDE but the core logi loop is still the same as discussed in this video. Thank you for watching but if you want to find out more about facilities check out the other Foxhole Youtbers who have talked about this subject. I'll eventually get arround to making a high quality guide myself but ... these things take time. SO don't expect it any time soon. Anyways hope you're having a wonderful day and if not *E-hug* hope that helps. Mkay bye!
I always forget how complicated this game can be to new players. I’ve been playing for so long that I don’t realize how complex the game can be to people who haven’t already been playing for years. Videos like these help a lot. So thank you for helping out the new players. I personally had to teach myself how to play the game in a lot of ways, but the game was much simpler back then so it wasn’t that big of a deal.
3:06 I would imagine someone watching this video is a total new player, and thus will ask "where do I get a wrench?" You can add a line like "check nearby townhall or bases on the map". I also think the depot option should be the 2nd one, because it's more reliable. 3:49 Can add that there are two icons, one for crates, one for the actual vehicles. It's common to see new players pull a crate instead then don't know what to do with it.
I’m always on the frontlines using all these player made gear. Tonight I think I’m going to run logi for the first time all night, gotta give back my appreciation of the logistics branch by putting in some time in their boots
A long time ago, I ran the logi's. Very concise and showed me that nothing has really changed logi wise. You did forget to mention to listen to a great series of podcasts while banging scrap nodes; I doubt the mind numbing tediousness of it has changed.
I'm a new player and I have checked a bunch of different guides by different people, but this one seemed the most comprehensible. What's been very helpful is the Planning section which actually lets me connect the dots of what I'm supposed to do. There's quite a bit of information (when you're new) and the visual helps a lot. Kudos!
fr bro on my first day i ended up playing 10 hours. Normally I only game for 2-3 hours a day if im free but foxhole was different the game is very immersive
Lol I picked this up again after a few years. Nearly forgotten all of it. Saw a bunch of new people ask what they should be doing and a lot of vets immediately tried to push them into logi duty. Being logi is like being a healer in other games: nearly nobody wants to do it. Many expect others to do it. And almost everyone takes it for granted.
Man, this was fckng amazingly helpful. I loved Medic gameplay when I got back into the game just yesterday after a long hiatus (last time I played was when it was still alpha, with barely any vehicles etc)... but logi work amazed me, both for its importance, and especially its complexicity. Thank you for simplifying this by such a huge lot!
THHHHHHANK YOU. you just saved me, i really needed that im looking fowerd i only have 30 mins into the game, i thought i wated a couple of bucks in a tooooo complicated game but now it might put up for my fav games. thank you you saved me. (im really looking fowerd to more videos like this i could really use it)
Whenever I come back to Foxhole after a break, I always check a newbie guide just in case any basics have changed. Considering I haven't played since just before trenches, I get the feelin' I've got a lot to re-learn. That being said, pretending anyone's gonna commend you for logi is a cruel joke to play on the fresh meat.
during my first experience as logi we were ambushed on a road waaay in our own territory and I ended up being the sole survivor protecting our cargo. Even seemingly boring roles can be exhilarating
Remember, you can mouse over bases on the map to see what they have in their storage. You don't need other people to tell you what you should bring, you can check for yourself if anything important is missing. Bases at the front usually need stuff in the following order of importance: Soldier Supplies > BMATS > Basic Weapons > Anti-Tank Weapons > Special Equipments / Tools > Garrison Supplies. I put Garrison Supplies last because while they are important, a base can survive a while without them and as long as a front base is fighting, it has bigger problems, though definitely don't leave a base starving over night. Also, if a bunker base gets hit by artillery a lot, it should always have about 3k BMATS stored up, since if these run out, it's all over.
I'm new to the game, just got it today. We had a frontline fight lasting hours and hours. We were low on bmats then our garrison got destroyed by sudden artillery. We didn't have the bmats to properly repair everything and we got wiped out within 15 minutes. Lesson learned, bmats very very important.
This is great as an intro. Note to people that if you get a flatbed with a container on back you can gather 5k supplies at once, greatly increasing your efficiency. But you will need a crane at the scrap yard to take the container off/put onto your flatbed. These should usually already be there at the scrapyard by other players tho, so no worries.
500+ hours in game 400 odd as logi myself. Whilst I would have explained some this different and do have a couple of different preferences, for new players this is FANTASTIC. We don't do it foe the commends, but that being said. 'Toss a commend to your logi'
Your video was super easy to understand and very entertaining as well. I loved the old war video clips. Could you also do a video explaining the tech tree, prototypes, and how to learn new tech?
This reminds me of the ANT runs in Planetside 1. They were vital to keeping base defences and supplies running, so targeting the ANT taking was vital. Shame they dropped it from 2.
great video, I went into this knowing absolutely nothing and now I feel like I have a alright grasp at the idea, Thank you very much. time to boot up Foxhole and get my first Logi run done
Very good work! I haven't been to this game for 2 years or so, so my knowledge was here and there. You've helped me get a griр on logi again! Would love some more vids describing tech trees and advanced stuff manufacturing! From Russia, with love o/
Happy to help. Tech tree and advanced logi are on my list of video ideas, but it'll take a some to get to them. Thx for the love and support. It means a lot 🙏
Thanks for the video. I played this game when it first came out and none of it made sense. I sat on it while it matured and coming back and seeing how far it's gotten, I've really gotten strangely absorbed in supplying the war effort
When I pick up this game i was thinking of splitting my time between Logi and Frontline work. I know how much logi means to other players who dont do it and im the kind of guy who likes resource hunting, refining, and fighting. So i was thinking of changing out every few days to balance out what needs to be done
>> Be me, new player, 2nd day, decide to make bandages, gas mask filters, and shirts for the front because I spent my first day as a shitty medic and had a ton of fun. Do everything you listed in THE MOST unoptimized, confused, stumbling, out of order manner possible that took me 3 hours to get a single truck ready. Brought a radio because someone told me to take one with me. Run into a Partisan ambush regardless. Loose all my stuff and die. Respawn, grab a rifle, show up to the Partisans already dead and my stuff already delivered. 10/10, will watch your video before trying again.
I really wanted to play this game but was totally lost in it and really wanted to do logi so thanks for the guide you made me get back on it to try it thanks a lot !
thanks! Im a new player and want to play logi to support the boys, I already learned a lot of stuff in the frontlines, now its time to see what happens in the back
just drove 40 minutes from top of map because im stupid and didn’t get a truck closer to the front :D i will say it’s enjoyable driving past a ton of player creations and seeing all the signs/fortifications
Thx for the video, very helpful. Im suck with gun so im decide being medic and save more life, and now im learning about logi so i can support my faction in different way. Also you got my subs :)
2:08 "Technically you can do logi with any vehicle, But some are more efficient then others" I was crying that was so funny as a player who appreciates details. Subscribed
Good video. Explains logi in-depth while still being easy to understand. I did notice a few things that probably should’ve been mentioned, but I think new players will be able to figure it out as they play. Asking questions shouldn’t hurt.
Yeah, I wrote script for this months before I started gathering footage. And back then I wasn't as well versed in the ways of logi but still I hope this will be enough for newer players to understand how logi works.
I love this game I respectively asked how do I play this game, he respectively answered he doesn't know, and gave an advice that i should look up basic tutorial on logictics. He mentioned it should be a perfect thing to do for frontline because he mentioned they are buttfuck on supplies so now I am armed with knowledge and info I will finally be able to do some basics logistics on my first try. Thank you for making this guide to get new players into FoxHole.
Small tip from someone that has played on and off: make sure that you take the refined stuff as crates so it can be reserveable, because in refinery you can't just take from the public stockpile (same applies to factory as well) and put them into crates, they will not be reserveable simply because you got it from public stockpile, I learned that the hard way by accidently putting my bmats into the public stockpile by accident and in return I couldn't put them into the reserved stockpile at the seaport for my regiment, learn from this fellow collies and wardens, but lemme tell ya, it was a sad day for me today that's for sure lol
