Went to the airfield with two buddies yesterday. Thinking of taking out a Boss Tank. Found out that there gathered three tanks and roundabout 8 hunters. As we went down to the Boss as only remaining, suddenly two harvesters found it funny to join the battle. That was a lot of blood! Love this game :D
@@TenebrisInfinite It took us some time, but was hell of a funride :D Anyway the overall XP and loot was woth it, even though this boss dropped only some chunks of ammo.
My brother and I went to the Airfield soon after making it to the Farmlands, and it took us a moment to realize that we were indeed in the wrong neighborhood.
This just happened to my team yesterday. So happy we aren't the only ones that experienced this lol. Went from 1 death to like 14 cuz we didn't realize what was goin on
Me watching this video: “that’s cool, I’ll remember to do this when I face my first tank” Also me: *respawns and there’s a tank stuck in front of the door of the farm house*
you have infinite amount of re spawns. My friend took down 2 tanks, and 2 harvesters + a lot of hunters. We probably died 40 times together, at least it's calm outside the bunker now.
@@Halvtooth i nearly died trying to kill 3 fnix tanks and 2 fnix harvesters fighting a single wolf while getting a four star pvg with no safe house for miles
Yesterday me and a buddy was going hunting the rivals in the region, when we arrived there were TWO Phoenix tanks, as the "target",.. we got our asses kicked,.. we need some more practice. :)
Ah fightings tanks always gets way more complicated the more there are in the fight, hopefully you managed to finish them off still! Hope these tips can further your tank smashing ability my dude :D
you all prolly dont care but does anybody know of a method to log back into an instagram account..? I stupidly forgot my account password. I would love any tips you can give me!
@Nasir Kyng I really appreciate your reply. I found the site on google and I'm in the hacking process now. Takes a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
I was with my friend and we had 4 tanks and kept trying and trying. After an hour or so we killed for 4 one by one and took some amazing loot, but we lost our kits and ammo and somewhat explosives. I'm happy I saw this video since we can do it in only 30 mins.
Great video helping the players out a lot especially the new players who haven't got into the whole mechanic a whole bunch, I just hope they at new robots like Giants as they called it would like to see the 3 leg monster from " War of the worlds" that would be awesome seeing it in the distance.
I totally agree dude! and honestly if they can keep up this mechanic of finding weak points on the robots and make it even crazier for the giant enemies that'd be the best! imagine ripping one of those legs off and the giant comes tumbling down or something.. thanks for watching man :D
@@TenebrisInfinite Haha that would be one of these scary but totally worth it moments, btw if you do one for the hunters if you haven't already and I mist it, you can actually kill them really quickly if you have the aim for it, first kill the gun and then shoot them in the "Mouth" as I call it, it's basically under the red glowing eyes it's like a little fuse box 1 or 2 shots should be enough for a 50 cal to take them down instantly, works for all versions I think.
I don't know if you've thought about it, but it says RESEN at the legs of the Tanks? It's Swedish for an RPG monster (think Dungeons and dragon) which is something similar to an ogre, troll monster. All monsters have a Swedish name too them. At least the military ones. Robot - SWE - ENG. Ticks - Myran - The Ant. Seeker - Korpen - The Crow, Probably an association to the crows of north mythology, Hugin (thought/mind) and Munin (memory). Runners - Järven - Wolverine. Hunters - Ulven - Wolf. Harvesters - Oxen - The ox. Tanks - RESEN - Ogre/troll-like creature.
Almost right. Korpen should be translated to Raven. A crow is a smaller bird and Hugin and Mumin was Odens two ravens. Resen is ancient swedish/northern language for giant.
;D and i really want to man! rng is being harsh to me with it.. i do know what to farm so ill tell you now before i put out my video on it bro! so aim for FNIX harvesters only, as far as i know right now they are the only enemy to drop them, and at a ridiculously low rate too.. im hoping to get at least one color so i can show it in action for the video so ive just been waiting on that xD
I got the green bike skin off of a Tank or a Harvester in Ostervik. I don't remember the mission name but it said to kill the machine in the center area there. I'm assuming it's random though and I just got lucky. Haven't found the other one yet. I don't see any difference between the color of bikes except in the description. Something about green being the color of the first bike produced and blue being the classic color? Maybe I have them swapped but it's something like that. Keep up the great videos.
I love tanks with a passion... That until we meet up with the apocalypse class, omg their terrifying especially with their strange sounds and it's even worse when their auto cannons removed! What a wild goose chase , usually I'm the one screaming down the house with everyone else looking for a strategy Lmfao🤣🤣🤣. But good guide to defeating them quickly 👍
I just got into this game, and I gotta say, your channel is super impressive. Your videos are concise, to the point, informative, and entertaining. Fantastic job. I wish you did vids on all the shit i play. Lol. Too bad this game isnt more popular. If you took your talent to a popular game, youd probably have at least 20k subs in no time. The topics you choose, and the style in which you present it is exactly what I feel most people want.
You're far too kind my man! I do my best to hit all those marks, and i'm really stoked to hear i have :D I wish a bigger game would inspire me in the same way GZ does, there's something about this little game that gets me stoked like non other. I might branch out someday and hit those larger audiences, but til then GZ is the game for me :D Cheers man, and thank you for subscribing as well!!
@@TenebrisInfinite You can absolutely tell you love the game, and that really is the most important thing. If you just went to a popular game for the sake of going to a popular game, your content probably wouldn't be near as good. I didn't even really think about that until you said it, but that's what's different about your content.Props to you for doing what you love and what makes you happy. I'm usually 3rd person action RPG kinda guy, but I'm enjoying genzero. It really is a great game. I like how they're not afraid to just let nothing happen. It's pretty immersive the way they've done it. Keep up the solid work. I'll keep watching, liking, and commenting.
Can't wait for Apocalypse tank tactics from you dude. :) I fought one and it can be damaged by its own mines if you can manage it to lead over there. EMP is also a good stuff to make it inactive for a short time, poisonous armored stick pods are dangerous..
Sometimes I wish the robots were a bit smarter and didn't just stand there like lemons as I hammer them with long distance shots. But most of the time, I'm kind of grateful.
My friend and I are just off the start archipelago and took down a rival tank, we both had 2 star weapons and between a couple of fight he got the 6* experimental machine gun and I got the 6* shotgun and bazooka! I feel a lot better approaching the main land now.
Aweh yeah man you're gunna need those new guns! watch my vid on the exp weapons to get a good grasp on the shottys range and some more minute details :D Best of luck fighting the new apoco machines bro!
@@TenebrisInfinite my shotty glitched so I can't use it😭, basically it doesn't show in inventory anymore but if I try equip a shotty mod it shows up as if I can attach it still but still doesn't appear!
Glad to hear it man! check my other videos to find more keen weak spots for the machines some are much more hidden than others. big update this month so keep your eyes out for deets on that coming soon too :D
Your narration here is much better than your latest videos. You force your voice too much and it can get irritating because it doesn’t sound natural. You’re in your element here
I've watched a few of your videos and it looks like you are either playing on "Adventure" mode, or your game is/was broken. None of the Hunters, Harvesters and Tanks just sat there and let us shoot them. They are all super-agro and launch many projectiles at us as well as physical attacks with the Hunters running and jumping and shooting and throwing ticks, bombs, poison gas canisters, etc at us. Some tanks lob proximity cluster bombs and all of them launch mortars. Harvesters shoot multi- stream firebombs and stuff like that. This looks like a way different experience than we are having. And, super-easy. We can't get within 3 hundred yards of a Tank/Harvester/Hunter without them going off and raining fire down on us. We need to use stealth and avoid them like the plague if we don't want a big, tough fight.
I think you can emp the tanks, and then drop an explosive canister under its body, afterwards it’s as simple as shooting the canister, and he dies just like that. Unless the devs have changed that...
On skirmish difficulty solo i found that using recoiless rifle, assault rifle and smg were my go to loadouts on base no dlc ps4. That initially lets you battle hunters and runners but also let me tackle harvesters and tanks early. By usingbterrain like buildings i was able to chip out superior fnix units at the airports. That got me a 5 crown 556 assault rifle. That enabled me to eventually get the 4 crown Rocket and from there it was AR and Recoiless all the way with HEDP and AP 556 rounds. Even my first encounter with firebirds fighting fnix tanks near the crater (got serious terminator vibes) was simple if you keep moving.
Me and my friend had to fight about 4 of these, as well as about 10 dogs and about 30 walkers, it was a pain in the ass, we lost all our meds, but we ended up with over 1k ammo for most weapons
I've been playing this with my brother and we've found the Tanks to be very annoying to deal with. We can blow up some of the components, but we've never managed to take off their weapons. From these videos they look like the most resilient components though, so we probably just haven't tried hard enough. There are also a lot more components that we eve know about. I assumed their legs would have been completely pointless to attack. Their rockets are especially annoying to deal with. Hopefully we can focus a bit more on their weapons next time and find them a bit easier to deal with.
Amazing channel! So hard to see amazing youtubers doing GenZero content. I faced my first tank today, but I'm just lvl 8... Not sure if it's worth it at my point. the loot is great by I wasted so much ammo...
Thank you so much Tiago! At level 8 without the salvage skill tanks can be pretty resource intensive and only offer the benefit of dropping weapons in which you probably have a reliable load out where you're at. So i'd say go for salvage first then tanks become loot pinata's so to speak :D great sources of ammo when you get that skill maxed out. For now they're best served as EXP grinding when you've finished a big farming sesh in the bunkers and military installations. :)
@@TenebrisInfinite Thank you so much for the tip! Definitely going to save me time and ammo. Keep up the good work and best of luck for your awesome channel!
Tenebris Infinite I thought rivals always dropped an experimental weapon so I had to experimental guns from a harvester rival and a hunter rival. I had found i tank rival so I spent like 20 minutes trying to kill and when I did it dropped a crappy weapon and like 300 handgun ammo :/
Me and my cousin went to the airbase and ended up getting pinned in the hangars from 2 tanks. It was fun, scary, and a horrible idea. The worst part was that we ran out of rockets and explosives (at the time, the only way we knew to defeat them)
I would just love it if you could disable the robots movement or targeting systems by destroying joints or limbs and if you shoot the eyes and face or sensors they start freaking out and spam shockwave or something.
I’m well aware that this was 8 months ago but I thought it would be worth mentioning. It’s no longer safe to disarm the tanks, at least the prototype class, as soon as they are disarmed they will constantly charge at you so be aware.
Yeah man back when i put this video out that charging rush attack wasn't in the game! But I feel it still has a lot of beneficial info for newer players so I left it up. Since then i've put up stuff for more veteran players in my "new tips and tricks" video and my video on controlling machines! :D cheers though, definitely words to the wise!
I wondered if there were any way to take out tanks easier than just pumping them full of lead so I found this video and it did help, except the part where it let off a loud horn that startled me and straight up trampled me which I was NOT prepared for, I found out it was easier to take off just the fastest weapon like the auto turret because I found the barrage or mortar more easier to dodge. Still though, this video is still helpful friend :).
Entrant Gaming huh, I’ve only had the prototypes charge me, the military just walk around when disarmed, and I haven’t seen a FNIX class yet, good to know though.
Yeah dude this was _way_ before they were added to the game, but if you do still need some help for apocalypse tanks i do have a vid on all the apoc machines right here man! ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OcdOayXbq14.html
I usually just destroy the machine gun then pick them off with my .44, and I destroy the concussion blast emitter or gas emitter, the missiles are easy to dodge but if you take both guns off it starts to charge move closer to you making it hard to be precise
Can you do a video about your character skill tree and weopan loadout and were to get those weopans cause i would like to know more about your build and playstyle
Lucky for you my dude i already have! here's the video on my engineer build (best build in the game/best weapons too) ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-rVaVbcSLXd8.html
thanks for the info but you didn't explain were to find and farm the weopans you had maybe in your vanguard video you can explain were you found them thanks for the info 😀 and your the best generation zero channel 😀
Guess the game has evolved. The tanks charge now, like a bull and it one shots you mostly, they have poison gas aoe, the have a harder Apocalypse class. Lots seems different.
Thanks for the advice and its alot easier even though you said that and can save alot of ammo instead of shoving like 10 thousand rounds in the face or any other spot and they gust eat the ammo you throw at them thanks though👍👍👍👍👍😁
Can you please update this for the Apocalypse Class tanks? Me and my friend have been struggling with them, even shooting over 10 rockets at them with a 6 star launcher they don't even start sparking...
@@king9noah657 This is not entirely true. Using the Experimental Rocket Launcher helps very much when taking out FNIX and Apoc type tanks. Ten shots is enough to take down an Apoc, or at least that was an approx. Best weapon to use against Apoc and FNIX type tanks are still the Experimental PVG 90.
My dad doesn’t believe me that the military tanks have rail guns im like dude that fucker hit me with like a sniper and hes like it was probably a rocket launcher so now im waiting for him to find one too
Tell him to go to the field in front of a place called ostramark near the bunker in the farmlands, theres a field out front that spawns one in! but maybe dont tell him its there just that he needs to check the spot out :D Cheers!
I have a question about the Hacker Skill, not sure if you know how it works. I realize you need all 18 Blueprints and this teaches you how to hack them. So on a Tick it gives me 100%, Runners are between 75% & 90%, Tanks are between 40% & 50%, and Harvesters are 10%. Even with all Blueprints acquired. My question is, why does it only work sometimes? I thought distance mattered at first but I changed a Runner from a long distance and it started attacking others but other times I can be right next to it and it seems like nothing happens. It has something to do with the blue burst that comes off of it when you hack it. Plus I don't think you can hack a Tank or Harvester because it does nothing and they still attack you. Maybe the percentage is just the probability of you making it fight for you. Not sure though. I wish they explained little things like that. Also it doesn't seem to allow me to change abilities, if I want to collect ticks it seems to stay stuck on hacker. Great content as always. Sorry for the long post.
No worries for the long post man! always happy to hear ya out so dont sweat it :D So sadly i havent messed with hacker much i used my friends build a few times and found the same results as you, just kinda confirmed to me to hold off on a hacker build myself until they tweak specializations more. So i would assume that the percentage is not increasing due to it not being a factor, even if it says it is... these mechanics do need explaining though, like we all went a month without knowing what the health upgrade did in game.. One thing i know for sure that is a big bummer to tell you though man, there is no multi spec'ing, i do think they wanted it in game so you could unlock two trees and use them, but it doesn't seem to work quite right. I really hope we'll see a skill overhaul in the near future, and respecing points too, all things that we'll just have to wait and see happen! :D
Well I learned of a Save Wizard the other day. For $60 USD, you can upload your PS4 save files through their server and mod in game files. It works for pretty much every game that isn't multiplayer. I never knew it existed till I saw another GZ RU-vidr using it. They had all skills unlocked and explained it. While it may be cheating I play solo and there is no PVP advantage so I don't see the harm. Plus this one works and doesn't require you to mod your hardware. Not sure what other people's thoughts on these are but I'm willing to test it out.
Hacking is done by percentages as you mentioned however different grades of robot have different percentages. Most tanks I see have 10% chance. Dogs can be hacked most of the time but even though it’s around 85% sometimes it’s not gonna work. Usually when successful you see blue sparks, however many time I have not seen any sign and then the start shooting at their own, so this could be a slight bug
I'm glad to hear that man! i try to help everyone at all levels not just fresh players but experienced ones as well :D Here's my vid on how to defeat all the apocalypse machines, ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-OcdOayXbq14.html
so i just got this game, and i went into a building near the farmlands which is prime tank territory. and a couple days ago i got a rival that showed up and it was a tank. i forgot about it but at this area, i tried killing a harvester. didn't work. and then i hear stomping. i looked down the street and saw the rival tank, coming my way. that was already horrifying. somehow i killed it with crappy weapons.
Just fought my first two of these at the same time. Had building for cover. Went through a mountain of ammo, and health packs. Had to put difficulty to adventurer, to make sure I didn't run out of resources.
I'm currently in the Southwest region of the map. Still fairly new in the solo campaign. The last few times I have loaded my save, there are always 2 Phoenix tanks that spawn directly outside of my safehouse. It's happening every time I load a game
I play this game on the hardest level, its not this easy and the robots come from all over the map to reinforce each other. I die so many times lol but, in the end, there is a pile of robots on the ground. Fast travel to another location start over.
Huh. When you said you were shooting off the weapons I thought you were gonna also shoot off the concussive part that allows them to do the aoe attack. It’s on the side of that main body bit, but it is kinda hard to miss. Pretty easy to destroy though.
Yes to be thorough I maybe could have, but even if you destroy both of the concussion emitters it still will be able to do its aoe and they dont actually do as much damage as the main guns! Of course with the tank rush attack now a days I wouldn't really suggest shooting the weapons off unless you have a situation when you've got the tank stuck in the trees or at a significant distance from you
gas tank i shoot always as last becasue it do 25% dmg. so first i lower him to 25% and then i shoot gas tank and he is down. face armor (that big) do only 10% dmg. but when its destroyed you can shoot his vents and gas tank from front with 50. cal. i usualy spent about 10-25 bullets from PVG to kill tank.. but all must be direct hit to components
Just started playing last week, only lvl9. I have the engineer skill, if I kill the tick pod first in these & the harvester can I still loot some ticks to use as minions??
Right but I put like 20 rockets into its face and it’s only down to 45% health…. Then save for the night. Come back next day and it’s full health again.
I was hoping you have found out which way to kill tanks has the best loot afterward. As killing it faster by removing their guns and stuffs will become less to loot afterward because you have damaged it to the point when you kill it. At least that's how I feel with this update. Am I right ?
Well that's straight forward my dude, just aim for the legs and body and dont damage any components, it just becomes a slog to do that though lol as there's actually no way to do it without risking damaging components. if you need all the best loot etc you should consider building yourself a engineer, i have a video on it on my channel you can check out if you want.
