I assumed people didnt show up on the map lol. My team was like "stop asking if were friendly, look at the map." Then i learned the scroll zooms into me. Thank god theres a command map
APC = rush inside, supress while hotdrop and retreat fast while firing nonstop. With supression mechanics there is no wasted ammo IFV = drop inf and stay with them to fight It is that fucking simple. Either play combined or die alone
Can someone tell me how I can get more aviation games. Are there servers who do set positions or anything? I try to only play name claim servers but if I don’t people just take the helis and it’s annoying
On my 1st day in Squad I was dropped into team lead then commander lol ... I just asked a quick reminder and I was helped out and we won the round so I was super stoked my 1st game ... so dropped in the deep end
Only thing I'd disagree with is not shooting logis or helos. If they're fully loaded with players that's like 5 or 10 tickets more than a tank. Totally worth and easy tickets. Plus they're not gonna get exact location off a helo kill. Though I get the logic and you absolutely want to never be spotted in an ideal situation. If you do engage reposition in areas away from the fight.
2 extremely important beginner skills are needed to learn RPG is ranging distance then knowing the markers on the RPG for different distances. Step 1: Go to Jenson's range and put a tank at 100m. Use the height of the main cannon and ground as reference for a common man's height. Anytime you see a tank, you have a reference point for ranging at 100m. Match that reference point to something in your RPG's reticle. It usually has a distance for 2 common man's height or 1. Half of that reference is 50 meters. Double that reference is 200 meters, so on and so forth. Once you have the range go to step 2 Step 2: Set the range of the RPG at 100m and shoot your rpg at pinpoint targets at 100, 75, 50, 25 meters. Keep in mind which markers on your reticle will hit those targets accurately. Since you already know the range of the target, just use the markers you just learned. Each RPG is different on those markers, tandem and high explosive rockets can vary on those markers. Test each RPG and take note of the markers Congratulations, you have now learned how to range using reticle reference distances. This this a starting off point into RPGs and also snipers
i figured it out i have an ultrawide monitor and squad actually doesnt support those so it just crops everything, i never knew i was playing with my screen cropped
1:42 the collective actually changes the blades tilt in a helicopter, the rotor stays at a fixed constant speed the whole tires but the pitch of the blades allows it to move up and down. Think of it like a lever when up you go up when down you go down.
if this video seems to over complicate squad, dont worry. these are all things you will instantly understand once ur in the context of the game. dudes only really circle jerk lingo in squad coz it makes them feel like a cool operator dude. and the things that you wont instantly get wont matter at all: use danger close wrong, say tank instead of bmp. who cares, everyone will know what you mean and only the asocial dorks will have a problem with it
This is how I got into squad leading, I had only played for a couple days, barely 10 hours, but SL was dumped on me and I just took the lead and led us to victory, I’ve been SL every game ever since
Hey don't hate on us markmen, it's better to be a lone wolf when I have a sniper, while you're driving to the obj point I'm weakening the next point from 500m away and doing pilots out of helicopters that face toward me, and I'm new too squad but have ALOT of tac shooter experience so the basic terms were easy but there were so many terms in your video that i hadn't even heard yet, ill be sure to use them, in my next game.
Now days ANY vehicle with a gun is marked on the map 10 times as a tank.... BMP....TANK, BTR.....TANK, Hummer.... TANK... Logi......TANK..... New players should have to watch this video. I mostly play armor normally the MBT. I've died a time or too because teammates have marked a tank on the map and I push in just to find a AA truck or a logi. Any tracked vehicle is marked as tank almost always.....its terrible and just keeps getting worse. Then you have squads yelling at you "why aren't you pushing in with the tank" because I don't trust call outs anymore. I push in on a tank mark to find a BTR then their tank comes up behind me as I'm leaving.
there was a time when I had just installed squad and my team needed a heli pilot, I had never piloted one, so I just got the bird, all the troops went in and I managed to fly it and land sucessfully, imagine how happy I was
Its amazing how many people want to be indians and not chiefs in squad. I have just about 30 hours now played. 8 in training mode (most of it in helicopter) and about every 2nd or 3rd game SL gets passed to me and i havent even said anything. Theres so many commands and prompts i didnt know existed for SL where the times i just gave up and kept the SL role i just had my squad follow another squad
