* Play on the easiest difficulty level. The combat is solidly in the "chore" category and should be on easy so that it can be dealt with quickly and you can focus on the greatest building destruction simulator of all time. Really, once I got good at the game I only ever shot guys when I felt like it - the rest of the time I was hurling satchel charges like a madman, knocking down walls with a tank, and having about 2000 times more fun than I was when shooting guys. | * Play on the easiest difficulty level.

* Smash | * Smash up the starting area for salvage, there is more to get than from just the 2 marked buildings. Once you get past this area and are at the starting safehouse, go to the upgrade table and use that salvage to buy the upgrade that lets you pick up salvage in a vehicle. | ||
* After your first 2 side missions you'll unlock an upgrade that increases the return from ore deposits, which are the black crystal formations you'll see randomly scattered around. Don't mine these until you have this upgrade, although it isn't a big deal if you do since there are so many of them. These give a good amount of salvage, so do stop to mine them when you see them. You need all the salvage you can get, you won't have enough to buy all the weapons and upgrades, unless you really go on a ore deposit hunting spree. | * After your first 2 side missions you'll unlock an upgrade that increases the return from ore deposits, which are the black crystal formations you'll see randomly scattered around.

* If you're dying, hop into a vehicle. If your vehicle is about to blow up, get out first or you will die with it. Your health will regenerate pretty damn fast if you can avoid taking any damage for like 5 seconds or so. | * If you're dying, hop into a vehicle.

* Hit and run, generally the EDF outguns and outnumbers you and if you get stuck out in the open you'll get killed. EDF tends to send forces at you in waves. You'll get swarmed and think you're fucked, but if you can find a chokepoint to mow them down, you'll have some time before the next wave comes to get out of there, or continue wrecking | * Hit and run, generally the EDF outguns and outnumbers you and if you get stuck out in the open you'll get killed.
