+TODO: Method to get to Origin's local files described below is incorrect/doesn't exist
+{% endhint %}
+
+Firstly note that Northstar client is only available on PC and requires you to **both own the game and have it installed**.
+
+1. Download the latest version of Northstar from the [releases](https://github.com/R2Northstar/Northstar/releases) page
+2. Copy all the files in the newly downloaded zip folder to your Titanfall folder
+ * **For Steam** - Right click _Titanfall 2_ > Open _Properties_ > Click _Local Files_ > Click _Browse_
+ * **For Origin** - Click Titanfall 2 in the Library > Click the gear icon > Click _Game Properties_
+3. Launch NorthstarLauncher.exe to start Northstar\
+ After launching, you should be greeted with something like this:\

+4. Next select Launch Northstar\

+5. From here you can use the server browser to select and join any of the public community hosted servers.\

+
+Should you notice any issues/warnings/errors while running Northstar, check the troubleshooting page.

+
+
+
+## Additional Stuff
+
+Since Northstar doesn't launch directly through Origin, any startup arguments provided in origin won't transfer over, you'll need to add them to the file `ns_startup_args.txt`, which should be in the same folder as you extracted the Northstar files to.
+
+If Northstar doesn't appear to be installed, or you have issues entering the lobby, try running vanilla files, I can't personally say what VPK mods could cause issues with Northstar at the moment, so it'd probably be easiest just to try running unmodded.
