Almost 900 hours deep at this point... Basically a cycle of being clueless, running behind some guy with a green blip over his head, getting shot, completely clueless from where. Play a few hundred hours, become the guy with green blip over his head, still get shot, at least from the audio you now the general direction you got shot from, still can't find the guy. Decide to play vehicle related role, learn where to hit stuff, now basically hardwired to know where the ammo rack for every possible vehicle is located. New player joins squad "do you know where to shoot?" "no" "from the front just shoot the driver window or gun mantlet, from the side shoot over the third wheel from the rear"; new player completely overwhelmed. Try flying the heli, eat shit, die. > see muzzle flash > shoot at muzzle flash > you just teamkilled .... > play a round for 1.5 hours > eventually stuck on some defence flag > 3 voice chats with 8 people simultaneously screaming shit > mortars, artillery, pain, eardrums left the chat > end round, killed only 3 people, died twice I joined some German server, forget Duolingo, I'm now fluent in Squad-German. My tinnitus is also definitely not service related.

I have sunk more time into this game than anything else I own on steam, and I regret nothing. If you are just getting into this game, I offer some advice: Make sure you have a microphone as it is essential to having the best experience with the game. The interactions you have with other players is something that gives this game serious personality. Also, being able to call out enemies or respond to teammates is quite helpful. Find a server that has a good mix of community (Name tags with bracketed descriptors) and randoms and then stick with that while you learn. Most people want to help you figure out the game and are extremely patient as they talk you through things. Some servers stack the community members against the randoms and then steamroll game-after-game. Avoid those as they punish even veteran players on the wrong side of the stacked teams. Focus on learning the basic roles of rifleman and medic first as they have the least amount of pressure to perform during the game. Also, if you play medic to start, everyone will be happy to see you as you patch them up. :) Stick with your squad, and don't be afraid to prompt your squad leader for some directions if you don't know what to do. It's easy for a squad leader to get overwhelmed organizing things, and so let them take their time responding. Once you have a feel for those two roles and how a round usually plays out, expand out to higher pressure roles such as anti-tank, machine gunner, ect. Don't jump into an heavy anti-tank or engineer or sniper role until you feel confident in your skills as they experience the most pressure to perform and respond to immediate threats. Snipers that don't perform are nearly universally looked down on and so be ready to own that if you are going to try it out. You will find what you like best and be deadly with it. You will figure out the radial menus and swapping weapons after some initial confusion under fire. You will have a good time and laugh at the absurdity that occurs. I hope you find it as engaging as I have!

get in game, spawn in, run for 30 minutes, die. Wait 30 seconds to respawn, respawn, die repeat until you magically end up becoming a beast for 10 minutes mowing down people like a maniac die, wait 30 seconds, respawn, keep chasing the high from the last time you did something remotely useful, get spawn camped, die, lose the game quit the game, wait 10 minutes, open the game again, repeat all above. Best dying simulator
