And once you're done that you have enough money to buy a lot of the foundry/OTS upgrades. With Asia, you save money on some vital upgrades with squad size I and II, which you'll be getting as soon as you get the needed soldier rank. The 'better' decision is a combination of playstyle, luck, and what happens in the game. But about 50% of the time I still manage to buy 4 satellites + 1 uplink in the first month, depending on the timing of abductions and the slingshot mission.Īnd if that's the case, I have enough money in the 2nd month to get 3 satellites + 1 uplink and OTS squad size 6 in time to do confounding light/gangplank OR base rush (rarely both, but it's possible with good RNG). Africa and Asia are really the best two choices.
I play war weariness/new economy, so my starting country's funding is nerfed to $7-21 per month. What are you going to buy if not a bunch of, relatively minor Foundry/OTS upgrades? You said you're not sure what else I intend to buy before the end of April, and I'm going to redirect that question back to you. Yes a lot of the bonuses after squad size seem marginal in comparison, but when you get a ton of them, it's pretty game changing. Shaped armor, advanced servomotors, and the various new grenades.And I guess it's worth mentioning Enemy Within:
