    1st principal of Squad: no one wants to defend. Noobs don’t know how to and experienced players tend to rush to the next point. My best matches have all been grabbing the midpoint and defending it. Holding mid we can leap-frog objectives or until the enemy team burns through all their tickets attacking.

      Once I play in the server with players all rush to the point and no single squad to defend point/ FOB, I talk to my SL to at least be a reserve stay in the middle while defending FOB, no answers and worst there's no communication or whatsoever......

  • @Nasse83
    @Nasse83 ปีที่แล้ว +29

    Do not sit near the hab, it will just get locked down. When defending don't sit on cap, spread out so you have time to respawn if you die and now you know where the enemy is coming from.
    Look at your map a lot.
    Don't ignore habs, often taking out the enemy hab opens the flag, ignoring the hab means that even if you cap the flag your instantly defending.

    This to me is where I think transport/logistics squads are so underutilized, if you're and infantry squad leader it's important to be maintaining your own vehicles, usually a logi, and coordinating with the other vehicles, Armor/Helo squads, because they can get you around much faster than walking and allows your squad to stay together. Also certain individuals will only run logis all game, while these guys usually don't talk much if they do, coordinate with them, just because they own the logi doesn't mean you can't use them to get from place to place. I see vehicle based squads being so underutilized in an era of squad when vehicle transport allows for such fast movement on increasingly larger maps.

      - Coordinating radio placement w/ the team to build a web of useful radios vs of a line of radios on point.
      - Coordinating logistics (including leapfrogging supplies between radios)
      - When to keep or dig down a radio
      - Radio/HAB placement

  • @israelleelll
    @israelleelll ปีที่แล้ว +18

    Good guide for newer players. These days I'm jaded so my advice for a good time is to avoid RAAS and European servers altogether. I'm not saying you can't have a good time going that route but it's like 1 of every 10 games was worth the time investment. Invasion forces teams to play the objective so it's almost always a better experience with more action and coordination. Squad leading is like herding blind, deaf cats so RAAS is just a broken game mode in my eyes. It gives people a reason to just do whatever while they get back capped. The wins aren't satisfying because it feels like stealing candy from a baby and the losses are infuriating because your team will just do whatever and then blame the armor for not carrying the match. 3800 hours later and I won't play it unless it says 24/7 invasion, though territory control is a lot of fun too. Still waiting for that insurgency rework years later.

But there is also the weekend regulars vs the weekday player problem too. Squad has always been hit or miss but that's probably any game.

  • @BringerOfD
    @BringerOfD หลายเดือนก่อน

    and remember when it comes to playing on the defensive. Ground control around a cap point is the most important factor in taking or defending a point. Barricading yourself inside typically does nothing but create a fish in a barrel situation. Even a super FOB is only effective if you have secondary habs and plenty of troops outside to harass the enemy while they try to breach.
    Habs on cap reduce your defensive mobility. Enemy will be pushing your spawn simply by virtue of attacking the objective. Once they have you penned in it's game over.
    Habs OFF cap give you the ability to maneuver around the defensive point and create envelopments to sweep up enemy attack habs, and effectively cover more enemy attack vectors until they have both found and made the conscious choice to attack that hab.

    I have lost all my hope in this community. The game is complex, but 90% of the player base is always made up of new players that just want to join a squad and shoot shit. This game needs a community that keeps playing this game and knows the mechanics, otherwise all games end up being a mess with no fobs to spawn on. If people playing squad buy the game and leave after 50 hours, this game can never grow, as the games will be bad due to bad strategies made by new players. And this will cause new players to refund and stop playing squad.
    Every game, there's people who are new. I don't understand how in every game I play, the 90% of players can all be noobs. This doesn't make any sense. Am I the only one who has been playing for years ? The community is incapable of checking their maps, going to the objectives, making a fob on back objectives, moving out of the hab building, doing logi runs if they notice there's no ammo and many other problems.

    With the risk of sounding blasphemously aracdy, I think that automatic HABs at captured points should be introduced, without eliminating the possibility of building new ones wherever the SLs bring supplies. That way, you eliminate the main problem, e.g. lack of spawnpoints, but you cna build onto it with skills and positioning. There's something else too - I've been in clans, and they always hate and blame each other - armor on the infantry, infnatry on the armor, everyone on the commander. After all, this isn't the real military, but there should be some sort of a discipline tool.
