The Precinct has just been released recently, and it is a sort of sandbox sim game where you play as a police officer who has the grueling task of cleaning up the streets that always seems to be riddled with crime. In this guide, we will go through some tips to help you level up fast and make it so much easier to do your job, or at least rid yourself of a few inconveniences as you progress through the ranks.
The Precinct – How to Level Up Fast and Climb Ranks
In order to gain a lot of experience fast, all you really need to do is progress far enough to the point where you can create a custom shift for yourself. Once you have this feature unlocked, what you need to do next is to simply start a helicopter patrol.
Crank the duration all the way up to 24 hours to get the longest possible shift you can have, and then just fly around and do your job like you normally would. Assisting ground officers while you are in a helicopter is a good way to earn a ton of exp quickly.
Fly around and pursue suspects while in a helicopter. Call in vans to ram suspects during a chase if you have to, since you can unlock the ability to do that as you grind through the levels this way.
Of course, groundpatrols are perfectly viable too, if you find that activity more fun. As long as you set your shift to 24 hours, you will give yourself a ton of time to just earn as much experience as possible in a short amount of real world time.
The only thing to note is, if you are doing work on the ground, make sure to make as few mistakes as possible. Screwing up a lot can actually hurt your experience gains, so as long as you are working like a good cop, you can gain thousands of exp in no time.
With a 24 hour shift, you can rack up a ton of points by doing work on foot, since each suspect can give you a ton of experience if they have a lot of charges. Obviously, this will vary, but you should have no trouble getting a few thousand exp per day.
If you plan on using the helicopter patrol method, focus on unlocking a lot of the policing support options from the upgrade tree. This will make your runs a lot more efficient, since you can call in road blocks and SWAT vans.
That is pretty much all you need to know in order to rank up fast in the game. It really is just a repetitive grind, and the game is fairly straightforward, so we are really only reiterating the basics for you and how you can use some of the features to your advantage. Hopefully they add more variance to the gameplay, but for now, these are your best options!
