I'm closing on the final act of Avatar: Frontiers of Pandora (Xbox/PC).
I started the single player. I'm enjoying it. I'm on normal difficulty and it seems easy enough so far. I feel the investigation meter is going to be a bigger issue than me messing up and dying. 😊Still playing Crime Boss: Rockay City. Still not bored after all this time.
Spoke too soon. I got surprised by a certain friendly golf game. Ran out of ammo, Picked up a few AR-15s from enemies but panicked and died. Seemed worth it though. Not soon after I started my 2nd run I was just given an epic team member with a tricked AR-15 and silenced pistol.I started the single player. I'm enjoying it.

Failure is expected at low level because you dont have the fancy boss/entourage perks yet. Even on failure you still collect boss XP. With those in mind, and the roguelite nature of the game, don't dwell too long on a single run if things don't go your way. Collect XP, pick perk cards / magazines and go at it again.As someone who has played the game a while do you have any tips or tricks I should now when playing? I've already worked out that I don't have to waste soldiers when defending territories near the beginning of a run. TD with his LMG is enough to win. I imagine that will change and defending territories will become more difficult further on requiring soldier support.
Thanks. Appreciate the insight. That's a good idea about using the loan if you know the run is coming to an end to buy office items. Yeah I always pick the weapon mag unlocks. I need to unlock my first silenced weapon. Hopefully won't be too long. I did unlock a few team members. One of the better ones being Cracker - Decked out AR and silenced Baretta. Shame he's so expensive 😂Failure is expected at low level because you dont have the fancy boss/entourage perks yet. Even on failure you still collect boss XP.

Which perk cards? Nasara cards usually have to do with team and soldiers, Casey with economy, Gloves with investigation and Touchdown/Baker have their own stuff.
Which magazines: For SP focus on team member and weapon unlocks.
Magazine unlocks and perk cards are permanent across runs, the rest is not. So at the end of the run, buy any available assets you can (use loan if needed) to boost that boss level
Turf war tricks: if you capture a turf and it isolates another turf, you get 2-for-1. You can even do a 3-for-1 if you plan it (though rare).
Oh, and with the Steam release, all DLC is FREE on ALL platforms right now. Until July 11th. And the base game is like 15 bucks.
If you unlocked better weapons/characters like blue or purple ones, they usually become available once you gain more notoriety (=number of turfs). And while you dont have any stealth weapons unlocked yet, check the characters for hire for any with stealth weapons. Note that to play stealth you dont need all stealth characters, only the one you play. Unlockable characters that are stealth-oriented: Runaway, Vamp, Tulip and Mozart.Thanks. Appreciate the insight.

Yeah I recieved the DLC automatically when I bought and installed the game. I think I may have just started the Dragons gold heist before I got bumrushed at the golf course by the police haha. 😂
Have you tried much Multilayer and if so how is it? Are people friendly for the most part? Understanding with new players?
Thanks so much! I appreciate your replies 👍 Its funny how straight away you can kind of sense if its going to be a good run or not. I had a run where I took over the majority of the city only to get to confident with Baker and that was it. The next one was over within 3-4 days Also I only just noticed I can tag guards and enemies with scroll wheel. That makes stealth a tad bit easier.If you unlocked better weapons/characters like blue or purple ones, they usually become available once you gain more notoriety (=number of turfs).

More turfs also means better rewards. I usually start in the 25-30k range for a small job, but late game I end up with 300k+ Baker can be used twice a day, so use him wisely. And get some upgrade cards that boost rewards (Gloves).
I have 470 hours in this game and 99% SP, no idea how good MP is.
Feel free to hit me up in Steam chat with questions too, or check the games Discord. Community is pretty decent.
They are both integrated and standalone. And regarding stealth: I'm more of a 'loud' person too.Edit - I think I was mistaken into how the DLCs were integrated into the Single Player. I thought they would be added to the regular Roguelite option and pop up randomly as hiests. It seems though they are more like longer stories rather than singular heists and to play the DLC they have to be selected seperately. Is that correct? @NLxAROSA
