User blog:Tecku/Some Garden Warfare Stuff

Hello, guys. So back in June, I got Garden Warfare for the PS4. Right now, I'm at about level 42. As such, I think I'm probably ready to start talking about Garden Warfare on my blog. Currently, there's a vote going on about whether or not I can polish up some of the level pages. But in the meantime, I thought I'd share some of my experience.

Garden Warfare is a really great game. The classes are fun to play and not too hard to understand. It keeps the comedy of the main series, while also providing its own take on the series. A lot of the gamemodes are really fun, and while it doesn't have as many maps as I would have liked, the maps play differently each time, making them great. With that being said, here are some general tips that I think every player needs to know:

More coming soon....
 * Almost every garden in Gardens and Graveyards has a turret right next to it that Engineers can set up. Yeah, no one on either team seems to realize this, but you can set up a defense right next to the gardens. Keep your eyes open for them- if you have 5 guys on the point already, its probably better to build them than crowd the point.
 * Almost every weapon deals more damage on headshots. I know, I know, to most people this comes naturally as breathing, but I'm one of the like 2% of people who didn't realise this until I saw a random tip about it. I work of TF2 logic (hence my avatar), so it didn't occur to me that non-sharpshooters could do headshots.
 * A lot of people make all 4 of their gestures taunts. I recommend making 3 of them taunts, but letting the right button stay as the 'follow' command. You don't need most of the gestures, but telling someone to follow you can come in handy.
 * For new players, I recommend buying "Incredi-Plant" and "Zomboss Vengance" packs instead of the caracter packs. The former two will come with upgrades and ability unlocks.
 * Unless you can land Chomper's melee hits really consistently, I recommend a spray Chomper, like Fire or Power. Their hits are a lot easier to land, and they penetrate coffins, barrels, and outhouses.
 * Gnome Bomb is great on some maps, but if Crash Course comes up, run. The Gardens and Tombstones are way too deep into enemy territory, they take forever to blow up. Expect matches to drag out forever on that map.
