As some of you might've seen I started making this: https://discoverygc.com/forums/showthrea...pid2315163

I will try and squeeze in more demos with a synopsis on fighter combat. If there are any FIGHTERS you really want to see please slap them up here and I can show them.

In addition, if there are weapon combinations you would like advice on please leave them here and I'll try and answer in bulk.

I am working on making gifs to further depict certain movements in the future, so it might make it easier to understand.

Any chance you can do the rest of the Rheinland line?
Would also be neat to see asymmetric loadouts: e.g. stealthblade + debs going up against all firekiss. But even if you leave some thoughts about using and facing different loadouts, that would be appreciated.

pg switchblade

I’d suggest making a 2024 version of a fighter duel tutorial, especially one aimed towards new players which would involve more jousting and missiles. Maybe even go through the basics that we often take for granted such as key binds, good habits, awareness, etc.

Can do pg switch later.


I need to purchase a good camera and better mic to really emphasize combat (omg face reveal!) we'll see down the road.

I don't think these videos are of any educational value to those who don't understand what's happening due to your intense speed. They're not great "tutorials", more so "ESports-level replays" for the well-versed gamer.

  • "Get to a position, then aim"
  • "The real key thing is to persist turning..."
  • "Don't get stuck boxing..."
  • "Once you identify you are in an advantageous position -- Seemingly off of their screen -- That is when you can stop manoeuvring and focus your shots."
  • "I am strafing in the opposite direction which I'm turning;
    If I turn right(>), I strafe left(<).
    If I turn left(<), I strafe right(>).
    This pushes your reticle farther away from your ship which benefits your survivability."
  • "Get to your opponent's largest profile which is usually the top, giving you the largest surface area to hit."
  • "Shotguns (<3.03) are unique because they allow you to focus on movement while competitively dealing damage in random intervals. Shotguns will teach you movement, as their damage is capitalised when you manoeuver and position accordingly." -- as stated in Tip #4.

These are some of the key excerpts I've gathered from what I can confidently call the accessible Snub PvP guide.


Voiceovers are essential for this mechanically complex game.
Overlay Keyboard would prove helpful, provide a keybind setup in the description for those confused.
Make multiple videos discussing specific styles; Basics - Jousting and when/how to turn. Earlyturn focus, Anchorturn focus / Fast ship, Slow ship. Heavy Fighters and Light Fighters.
Probably write a script first as these freeform videos are inefficient.

Yea like I said, for me to really break it down I would need to use a camera and mic like lev has and go step by step through each video pausing at certain frames.


Monumental pain in the ass and I don't all the hardware or software available. It's a project for down the road but this is the best I can do for now.
