Transcripts

good morning good afternoon good evening

its racket and it is a lovely

fantabulous day because it's time to go

back to a beginner e world once again

now there has been a beginner video last

time I you may think I might space them

out but I looked on the main battle cats

thing of the high-level account and

there's not really much interesting

stuff I am working on something trying

to win a level that I previously failed

miserably on but I'm gonna work out some

strategies first so hopefully you won't

see me failing so I'm gonna do this

instead today and if you don't watch the

other series this series carrying on

today so more videos for you but here

it's telling you there's a bonus item

clear the grease stage - I'm not the

super a unit beam cat now grease isn't

too far away but it's not kind of where

we are at the moment so gonna okay

that's a ok that's fine

and I have a heck a lot to show you I've

got my daily log in today so I've been

given 3000 XP which is wonderful

I should have logged in before actually

I didn't but I'm going to be given a cat

ticket and as it says there you get

given a cat ticket every day although

everyday isn't one word you still get a

cat ticket every day and this is

extremely useful because cats Achatz can

really really help you and I will show

you just how after introducing you to

everything else that is new because

blimey O'Reilly it is bombarded me with

stuff since the last video I'm fortunate

can't show you the very unlocking of it

because I wanted to change my phone

something else so I click buttons then

just gave me loads of stuff but I might

as well show it also I don't know really

what is no there's a storm so I think

you've seen that before but down here we

have cat captial and rare captial and I

don't think you've seen them before and

the numbers on them show how many of

them you've got I'll show you them in a

minute and at the top it says user and

I'm user ranked is usually attributed to

how many times you've upgraded cats for

me personally or I can see it goes up

when I upgrade a cat to a higher level

but I don't know if it's other things or

not but the user rank increases as you

do more things basically and you get

rewards

forgetting to certain numbers if I can

actually press on the informational

thing and wait for something to come up

I will tell you all about it but it

doesn't seem to be brilliant doing

anything it seems in any case it won't

load up but take my word for it when you

get to certain user ranks it gives you

rewards and this is very useful when he

gets a very high user X like for example

3600 that will allow you to get extra

levels for some cats that you'll unlock

a lot later in the game so it's

important to upgrade your user rank by

upgrading stuff and doing stuff like

that but without further ado I'm going

to go into the cap capsule menu and

before I do actually

so a little bit of an Adu before that I

haven't been able to see any audio on

this I don't know why but battle cats

hasn't given me any audio on this it may

be because I haven't turned it on but

for this video I'll do some

investigating afterwards I'm putting my

microphone audio with the recording of

this to make it easier to edit so that

will be good and so will be better to

upload and I could possibly even do a

slightly longer video because it would

take less time to edit and I will do

investigations as to how the sound is

working but cat capsules let's have a

look at them so it's gonna tell me about

none these are kept capsules you can

draw them for free as it says just press

where it says cat ticket you have one or

whatever to do if you have ten you can

actually do ten at once we won't have

ten for awhile and yet we can get these

pretty easily and as I said it gives you

them every day and you can do the things

called metal hippo stages and other

metal things to give you can tickets but

they're they're rather far away you

shouldn't worry about them at the moment

but the ones we're given every day will

be very useful so I'm going to click dry

once and all bills get capped Achatz so

the cap spins around and it opens and it

gives you a cap to get so I have been

given cat energy now this is good

because I can click use on my high-level

account I have to transfer these ings of

already max mangy but this we haven't

upgraded ng once so when you click use

now you will go to your menu and you can

upgrade it and it won't go to level two

it will go to level one plus one because

you

upgrade its level to through XP but it

is the equivalent of level two of the

minute but the +1 just means that when

you get it maxed out you can get in cap

capsules so you can have it like level

10 plus 1 or something like that so I'm

going to try it again and see what we

get in our next capsule now you can get

cats or ability things like this cap

base health not a massively useful thing

but it helps basically free upgrades

either so that's going to go to level 1

+1 as well and we have ourselves 6000 XP

with which aren't we are going to

upgrade some cats because cats are good

and as I discussed before the ax cats

can be pretty important moving on I'm

gonna upgrade our gross cats laughs I'm

gonna upgrade gross cat once at cat once

and we don't have quite enough to

upgrade 10th cat

so what I'm gonna do is upgrade our

efficiency which costs exactly 2000

leaving us with nothing and we shall

hopefully be able to get the monies

sooner so that we will be able to buy

our cats more easily now I'm not going

into the special cats menu quite yet

just because it wants to sell me things

that I don't necessarily need to buy at

the moment that's one tip I have don't

buy your special cats to start you don't

really need to is better to save up cat

food also another thing don't exchange

your things that you get from the cat

capsules for XP they'll be very useful

for upgrades and always make sure to

upgrade things with them so those are

the tips at the moment let's start the

video and so we are on Australia so

we're going to try and get into that

we're going to click the tak and into

the battle we charge forward with our

amazing cats 4 of them

what's an amazing team so we're met with

a relatively short distance between the

basis and a koala and it's its child

which is nice and some doges and snatch

not too much trouble now we have a 200

cap on our first level of work cat which

is great so I'm going to bring out a

10th cat now and I will bring the ex cat

as well soon we can very nearly afford

that and we've got the protection of our

tank cat so there we go

here's the axe cat chopping away at

those end

he's protected by the tank kept very

good indeed we can get another tank cap

and this is probably how we're going to

go through this level there may be a

bigger botanist there may be another

hippo because there's a hippo in the

previous level levels are going to start

to get harder which is why I'm going to

upgrade my work again to levels three

and I will be able to afford the gross

cap now it has just occurred to me that

my money caps are going to be exactly

the same as last time

upgraded the efficiency not the capacity

but yeah it's good enough the only other

got upgraded to level 3 to get the gross

cat it has eight levels in total so when

you reach level eight it will say max

and you can't upgrade it anymore

I think they're things called cat combos

you can increase the maximum but I

haven't experimented with those and

you'll get those much later don't worry

about them at the moment so we have our

tenth Care Act's cat and gross cat

smashing away at the base not even used

on normal cat so I said it was good it

is a good cat but at the moment we

honestly don't have to worry i sat on

loads of monies for a while I really

shouldn't have done that

but what what's good is waiting with our

tank cat and various things like that to

hit things with now loads of little

people now this this is a bit of a

problem for our limited ability to spam

cats because we can't do it very quickly

so I'm gonna bring in my simple cat and

we seem to have really pushed back the

tide of little squishy enemies but this

this is a feature that features in quite

a few levels they will try and bombard

you with loads of enemies that you'll

have to individually kill if you don't

have a thing called area attack that can

be very difficult but luckily our cats

were good enough to get rid of they

weren't really buffed I can't imagine

and so it's been pretty easy to destroy

the base and speed in just drawing base

we've been given 3100 xp for that which

is wonderful and we're gonna upgrade

some cats for that so let's do that

what can we upgrade oricon it would be

good to upgrade our tech cap to level 4

that'd be very good indeed let's go into

the next level then which is Singapore

yes let's try and invade Singapore with

our cats and win right so here we are

longer distance between the base massive

distance in fact look at that we're

going to zoom into this

fascinating dough's here and take the

opportunity of the long distance between

the base to upgrade our work cap long

distances are always very good when it

comes to things like that especially in

the early levels it will give you loads

of time to get loads of money with which

to deal with what shouldn't be too

difficult enemies I mean there are three

doshas now four spaced apart quite far

not only too difficult so what I'm gonna

do is I'm gonna bring out the tank cap

to meet them and I'm gonna do the old

thing I'm gonna get myself a cap as well

just in case your loads squishy enemies

and then just wait until we can afford

our gross cap now I said briefly about

rare cat tickets now I am NOT opening

one currently because rare cats can be

very expensive at least usually and I

will I imagine open one at the end of

this video that's what I'm going to do

but at the moment I'm just showing you

and get through the levels without the

comfort of a rare cap because when I

open that rare cap capsule that's when

the similarity to your account will

undef initely end the cat capsules of

course a random but the rare cats I

could get an awful cat in it or I could

get an amazing ridiculously good cap or

maybe even account which is hilariously

expensive and even if upgrade my work at

some axe I would not be able to afford

it is completely random because you get

less chance to get the better cats but

the thing is is that that's random so

I'm only going to do at the end of the

episode so that you have faith that you

can do these levels easily without your

rare cat at the start we've reached

Singapore with our good old meat

shielding combo and there is really no

trouble to be had and especially if I

get a very bad rare cat cat such as arch

cat springs to mind I won't be using it

because arch cat is a very much a dire

abhorrent cat and is terrible so we

don't need to worry about that much

upgrading our work cat very well now

level 5 600 capacity and level 6 700

capacity so it bodes well for if we have

any more expensive units which we will

when we acquire our next cat we will

have things such as bird cat and draught

no line

you're offline cat no I'm thinking to

the wrong thing cow cat it's my

high-level true forms and stuff that

they'll come later don't worry about

them that were confusing me bien they'll

be more expensive especially when we get

a cat called tighten cap tighten cat is

brilliant but it'll be a while before we

get back he's the last of the basic cats

that you get so these four cats are the

first four of the basic cats and a prime

example of loads of squishy enemies we

have an invasion of those guys luckily

our cats holding up very well with

decently fast attack rates but no

they're not even holding up our gross

cat is just naked to the elements oh

this is very bad

doges and everything storming up toward

him a cat cannon only goes that far

which isn't good I should upgrade it but

I'm not going to just for the reason

that I can let these guys come to my

base destroy them and then just launch

the attack again with loads of monies

but we seem to have defeated the wave it

wasn't too much trouble we have pushed

back a little bit given a tiny bit of a

scare but not too worried we brought the

base below wow I was about to say 300

health video being gone by the time I

said that and brilliant superior Murli

on treasure and superior treasures are

the best treasures and treasures

fantastic and there is a new cat waiting

to be upgraded so I'm going to upgrade

this cat and well the least unlock it on

Cyril upgrade it because it is Cal cat

now I need to have 4000 XP to acquire

Cal cat which is really strange I I

don't remember having to spend xp to

acquire account but you know Cal cat is

there to be very quick and at the moment

we don't really need it because it is

relatively expensive the arrangement

that we've got won't really allow for

using the cow cat much which is why I am

quickly going to go to work cats

efficiency which is here and upgrade

that so that we can get our monies

faster because once we start unlocking

cats like this we will need to get our

monies faster which also means we should

increase capacity so they don't keep

hitting the upper limits of what we can

get and having to spend loads upgrading

our

city is in in the levels themselves so

as I said a word I'm going to end off

the video by getting a rare cat and see

what now we get so I'm going to go into

the menu this is the menu that's on at

the moment now these are rare cat

capsules it's telling you all about them

and the best way to buy rare cat tickets

is not to buy them unless it's a

guaranteed uber 1500 cat food draw which

you do not need to worry about the

moment at all I can immediately see a

really bad syntactical mistake at the

top what is a rare capsule mat that's

that would need to be fixed but nice

artwork underneath it and never never

use 150 cat food to buy a cat capsule we

don't have that much cat food anyway

we're gonna have 30s it says at the

bottom right of the screen but just

never just wait until it gives you wear

cat tickets because it will known again

and we can choose between tales of the

neck Eluga or gals of summer now the

girls of summer knife I've got stuff on

the higher level account they're not

insane knees fill at least tropical

cleats are the one that I got so we're

gonna go for neck Eluga

and it says triple chance for uber

catfish you're the most expensive

amazing cats not necessarily the best

ones because you need a wide berth of

cats in your strategies but they'll be

the expensive ones of really good

special abilities so we're gonna go into

it we're gonna see what can't we get I

have no idea what we're gonna get even

might not even be a cat it might be a

really vague definition of cat who knows

but we gotta click it so we're gonna go

try once and as the cat spins around is

golden this time for record capsule and

we get oh that's bad this is Bishop cat

he's he's not good he is genuinely not

good but we're gonna use him happy we

can acquire him for nothing

there we go cuz you can just unlock him

as it's been you know for usually for me

as well a surprise how to spend XP to

acquire the count cat but yes the

organize menu has now been unlocked you

can also get organized cats you want to

bring to battle so yeah this is what we

can doing press a quip which I believe

should come up let's have a look yet we

can press equip to

put our different cats into our team

strategy bits here and we have ten slots

we don't even have ten cats the moment

and we don't really have to worry about

that here's our rare cat section which

we again don't have to worry about

because bishop cats rubbish let's not

focus on him he's he's not going to be

of much use I will put them into the

strategy anyway but just I am unlikely

to use him especially because he is a

rare camp that you may not have and for

that reason I'm actually going to take

it out again so sorry for your moment of

hope there bishop count I'm not going to

put you into the strategy and I am going

to not use you for now maybe later but

you're not particular so I'm going to

spend my XP and upgrading these cats

because these cats are the ones that I'm

going to move forward into new levels

with so hopefully I can make a brave new

step into the unknown in the next

episodes where I will be trying as per

usual to conquer ever more of the world

I hope you enjoyed
