How to make credits fast and easy [OUTDATED]
By MightyChop
So I have made another guide showing how you can make credits fast and easy. I have made a guide similar to this one, https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=894553735 , but I have seen and it is not really effective so I am making another one showing how to earn more. So first off this is not some guide that will give you stupid tips, it will be effective tips. Second off all this guide will be kept up-to-date and giving more effective tips. If the tips may seem simply it is, but it does work.
If people would like they can put thier tips in the comments below and I will add them in my guide for them.
Please note these tips are used in the general expertise but you can use the tips for other classes.

Playing as Infantry
Infantry are the main class to earn credits quickly, like my rank 12 infantry can earn over 10k in his sleep, but what if you do not have a rank 12 and only a rank 5? Well good news is that you can still earn lots.

  • You should always try fight in assaults and wars if you are a decent rank (5 and more) and try YOUR best to make it last.
  • Try to let your battle time carry on by moving around, shooting enemies, capturing, ect. this will increase your credit earning. (See Credits in Time in the Extras section)
  • Do not die, simplest thing to do and if you are badly hurt find medics or health packs ASAP, the more you die the more often your 'Battle Time' stops
  • If you are getting shot at and do not know where the enemy is then try to find long grass, a lot of bushes or even buildings that are around you and hide in or around them.
    Then wait some time and plan your next moves carefully.
  • Always try capture as much points as possible and do not go riding around the map trying to find people to kill. (See Kill vs Capture) but sometimes it is not. (See Defend or Attack?)
  • Like destroying tanks? Use Panzerfaust 60, they are free to use and are really effective and save credits.
  • If you buy a APC truck and take it into high lvl battles they will 80% spawn in it giving you exp, which can turn to credits.
  • If your squad leader gives an order, follow it and complete it, it will give you bonus exp, but do be careful sometimes the squad leader is inexperienced or doesn't know how to lead.
  • Nades are bloody expensive and is not recommended to use them, trust me they are tempting to use.
  • If you see a weapon that is better than yours, get it, just do not put yourself in danger. Doing so helps save credits because you not using your gun and you can kill quicker or faster.
  • Does your aim suck like hell? Check Aiming in the Extras
Playing as Paratrooper
Paratroopers are the flying infantry and can make a good fortune, my rank 3 paratrooper can make over 6000 credits in one small match using the Gewehr43 (Starting weapon). So here is how I do the grinding of the credits.

  • When you have the combat badge 'FREE FALL' you should only deploy your shoot when you are really close to the ground, this helps for players can shoot you in mid-air. Watch out for sometimes it has a delay.
  • The guns you would most likely need for best killings are Maschinenpistole 34 (German), Grease Gun (United States) and PPD-40 (Soviet Union). These guns are great for paratroopers modded or not. If you want you can go higher, its your choice, then it is fine but in my experience I do well just with the guns listed above.
  • When you pull your shoot, try glide to what you think is a good spot or if an enemy is vulnerable.
  • Paratroopers are best at capturing objectives so it is best to do so, (See Defend or Attack?)
  • When playing, try shoot enemy paratroopers. Yes it is hard, but they might have a REALLY good gun and kill you quick, but watch out because infantry might shoot you when you are not looking.
  • Do not buy camo for paratroopers for you can waste money and play for little times (See The Camo for You)

Playing as Recon
So playing recon is cool, because if you mod your rifle a bit you can get one shot kills and get tons of credits. I used to play a recon(one-shot-kill) on someone else computer until I got my own, but I used to get 5000 on skirmish map easy (This was when the credit "business" was a lot different, so it has increased). Please note that I have not been playing recon for a long time so my recon knowledge is a bit rusty.

  • Recon is the army's eyes and ears, so if you spot a enemy tank shooting in the bushes, type to your team in the chat box that there is a tank there, for example "There is a tank in the bushes near O2" Your team will be most thankful, remember that you should mark most enemy players.
  • Try not to capture, recon is not meant for this (unless you want the gold camo badge, but first look at it), unless you are defending by sniping enemies from far.
  • Do not stay in one place, move around after 2-3 kills, unless you have a Gold Camouflage Badge.
  • You are a RECON, do run in points and shoot guys with your rifle. Also take your time when sniping and spotting enemies.
  • When starting out do not just go to a random place and snipe from there, take a car, or better yet a motorcycle and look around the map to find a good sniping potion.
  • If you do not know the different things for a recon go to Recon 101
  • If an ally sniper gets killed and you see his rifle try to go get it, it might have a one shot kill mod on it and it will help improve your rifle progression as well as getting kills.
    Please remember that you might also get spotted or killed if you try get the weapons, so watch out.
Playing as Tank
If you want to be able to destroy tanks and get credits fast there is ways of getting lots of credits, I have a rank 6 tanker that earns 10k or a little more if I am lucky. The best modes to fight on is assault and war, you can try skirmish but you will not get as much. Not much tips for tanks but still good.

  • Do not be open in plain sight, unless you have a starting tank, or you will be destroyed. (See Camo for Tanks)
  • Destroy as much tanks as you can, if you do this tanks will be given the most of killing tanks
  • Buy a wrench and get the mechanic badge if you intend to live long
  • Before buying any tank first go look what is the best to worst, the tank will help improve credits for some destroy better, while others are cheaper to repair.
  • If you camping in a spot you might want to move yourself after a while or tanks will come to you at a different angle and destroy you.
  • If you know where an enemy tank is, try and flank or go behind them and shoot from there, they will take forever to turn their tank barrel to face you.

Playing as Fighter Pilot
Shooting down planes and bombing things are fun, but controlling one is hard. The only way to really make credits is to destroy or bomb the enemies I recently bought a plane and I am such a noob but with 10 deaths and 2 kills per match I get more than 5k credits. (Maybe I should use these tips for myself ... oh wait I need to learn to fly and not die rather than earn credits, lol)

  • Learn to fly, if you fly you can stay alive longer and destroy more. (See Piloting)
  • Learn to bomb things, if you bomb enemies and kill/destroy them you can get some bomb exp that could go to 200 if you get it right. (See Perfecting Bombing)
  • Destroy lots of planes, one guy I know destroyed 21 planes and got over 20k credits for the planes alone (Just so you know he earned like 30k altogether)
  • Upgrade your planes and bullets, just check on the Heroes and Generals wiki on the best bullets and what not.
  • If you want to repair your plane, just watch out for landing can cause you to blow up your plane, so go slowly when landing
  • When fighting an enemy try to be straight in front of them or right behind them, this will increase the chance of destroying them
  • If you have a recon plane, watch out for anything that can shoot will tear you out the sky, try to fly away from that unless you are bombing.
  • You should also buy a wrench, to repair your plane, just watch out when landing.
Extras
Credits in Time

When you move, shoot, destroy, capturing, ect. You make your 'Battle Time' run like a clock but when you stop these actions or being inactive your Battle Time stops. At the end of your battle your time will equal the amount of your rank.

Example, if your soldier earns 1000 credits per hour and your battle time equals to an hour that is how much credits you will get, plus your bonus. If you played for half an hour your credits is half plus bonus.

Kill vs Capture

If you go around the map trying to kill people rather than capturing points it is useless, here's why.

If two soldiers went to battle and earned the same each time the battle ended it would be, for example, 10,000 credits per hour. Now if Soldier 1 goes around trying to kill people rather than capturing and Soldier 2 goes around capturing rather than killing here are the results after an
hour.

Soldier 1 - 12,500
Soldier 2 - 15,000
Here's why: the game wants players to capture objectives rather than kill everyone so they put in extra credits for people who capture.

Defend or Attack?

So should you defend or attack, well here is how to spot what you should do. Capturing gives about 100 - 300 credits plus the kills to defend or attack.

If your faction is capturing points fast then stick to capturing them, go to the point and "hide" yourself but also where you can shoot enemies, when it is captured to the same for the next.

If your faction is constantly losing points then stay on the open objective and camp somewhere in or out there, try find a really good spot, when the next objective is captured go to that one and do the same.

The Camo for You

So you are wanting to know more about camo well carry on then.
The best soldier is for these in order from best to worst.
Recon - These dudes REALLY need the camo, they will be hiding away from people.
Infantry - These guys could use it to help a little for camo.
Paratrooper - These guys do not really need this because you will be falling the whole time.
Tank - Theses guys will be in a tank so it is pointless.
Fighter Pilot - These guys will go done swinging (falling) with their planes or suicide

As you can see these are the people you need the camo most, but be warned it is BLOODY expensive and can cost you more than what a heavy tank us.

Recon 101

Check this guide out https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=363935460&searchtext=recon , helped me greatly.

Camo for Tanks

The secret to camouflaging is there is no way except for the badge but what tank will have that :D. Anyway here are ways to help camouflaging.
Hide in the forest and stay away from the war zone, and stay somewhere where if a tank come along it would be hard to spot you.
If you are low health drive away and repair (if can) yourself, the more damage you take the more smoke appears making yourself a better target.
If you kill infantry watch out for they might come after you.

Piloting

All I have to say is this...
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=683144791
Will bloody help (Ah I should use this one for my problem, huh, what, carry on)

Perfecting Bombing

Again all I have to say is this...
https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=891678141
Bloody good guide and helps greatly

Aiming

So the secret to getting better aim is to play games... Okay so you know games like PUBG, Fortnite, COD, Black Squad, CSGO all those FFP Shooter games? Yeah if you put in a few hours in them and train yourself like 1-3 hours a day.
All you then need to do is hop in a H&G game, get your gun and for the first 2-5 min of the game shoot walls, trees and anything you can find to get the feel of the gun and guess what you will be ranking up those kills so quickly.
Player's Tips
@MR.MeatySlav
Light tanks on skirmishes can make a ton of credits just by mowing down infantry (using the tier 1 tank that only has the MG), but its nothing compared to a good infantry on a war match.
Final words
So here are my tips, hope you find it easier to get credits now and to get those good weapons you wanted (or other stuff, whatever you want)

it works i killed 3 chaffe tanks and almost 30 people in 2 games i found it deasy to catch tanks off guard
MightyChop  [author] 6 May, 2018 @ 2:03am 
@pikakot You should play on skirmish maps and you should get the highest armor piercing bullet you can get and the best advice I can give you is try catch them off guard or start shooting them when they are so on damage. (Btw Starting tanks were meant to kill infantry, so you might get a few credits out of that) If you still need help just ask.
