[2019] Any tips for newbies?

Best modes to play:

• Co-op to level up classes, weapons, reinforcements, heroes, armor and more (it counts)
• Hero Showdown gives you a lot of credits.
• Galactic Assault and Capital Supremacy are good to play if you want to play mixed warfare or just want to have a lot of fun.

Best trooper class depends on your play style:

• Assault is all around good (but has little high points except the weapons)
• Heavy is good if you don't want to die every 20 seconds because of the health and the shield.
• Officer is great if you want to get the heroes before everyone else, or are playing object objectives (uplink, turbo-lasers, override door control, etc) because of the squad shield.
• Specialist is just a class that is annoying to play until you unlock the last 2 snipers.

Best weapons and troopers:

• Assault is the easiest to get good weapons, because the A280 is only 50 eliminations to get (1-2 coop matches). The CR-2 is only 200 kills to get (1-2 days of normal play in Co-op/Galactic Assault).
• Heavy is another class that is great for choke points, but the downside is that the best weapon is at 200 kills unlike Assault which the best weapon is arguably the A280.

Tips:

• Don't play blast thinking you'll get a lot of kills for weapons, you only get like 10-12 per match compared to Co-op where you can get 50+ in the same amount of time.
• Bounty Hunter on every class allows you to get reinforcements, vehicles, and last but not least heroes first, so level up that card as soon as you can.
• Darth Vader, Anakin, Darth Maul, Rey/Luke, and Han/Bossk are the most versatile heroes for most maps (level up these first)
• When playing on galactic assault and you have to eliminate the rocket launcher/disruptor character, wait until they pick it up and then kill them, it gives you more battlepoints.

Hope your star wars battlefront 2 journey goes well!
