To answer the most common comment: Yes, obviously find the server with the lowest ping. What I meant by saying "a server with 100-150 ping" is that in Squad, unlike other games, you don't need to have 30 ping to have fun or even be competitive. As low as possible is ideal. Under 100 is great. Under 150 is enjoyable. Under 200 is playable. I would choose a 150 ping server with a community I like over one I didn't like but got 50 ping.

I joined my first game and there were a bunch of squads with 1 person in it, and a couple with 8/9. I kept getting kicked from everysquad i joined, so i made my own so i didn't get kicked for not being in a squad. Within 30 seconds it's a full squad and me being 45 seconds into the game was a squad leader. Now I was a Squad Leader in real life, i know how it works, but here i am on the side of a cliff, not knowing anything about the game just seeing a bunch of people i don't know if they are friendly or not trying to figure the game out. I have no idea what the objectives were or where anything was. Commander not saying anything except complaining about team killing. So anyway. I had no idea what was going on, pretty similar to real life.

Getting shot by people you can't see is basically a fact of this game, but keep in mind this game isn't about kills unless you can wipe out a whole squad and ensure nobody can get revived. You can reduce being blindsided by trying to always keep in mind which direction the enemy would be coming from based on the locations of the roads and their main base or nearby FOBs. Always remember to look towards the ridges and horizons when outdoors, and doors and corners indoors. It will happen regardless though, there will be times when you're expecting the enemy to come from one way or even shooting at them and another squad or even just a lone guy sneaks up on you and shoots a bunch of your squadmates. The good news is that the lone wolves never really make a difference because of the revival mechanic. It's one of the most team oriented games I've ever played. Eventually it starts to click and you kill a T-72, BMP and a helicopter in the same match as heavy anti-tank, or get 50+ kills in one match as a machinegunner because you defended a point from two squads at the same time

I bought the game around November 2018 on a good sale. I only played around 4-5 hours or so and then stopped playing since I had other priorities at the time. I remember the SL telling me and some dude to go covert behind a tank under a bridge and blowing it up. I provided the guy ammo for his stuff and I felt really proud for helping. We then snuck up behind enemy lines, crawled prone for like 10 minutes and did some pretty sick parkour to get on top of a shack. We observed for a while as the remaining squad proceeded to ambush from the opposite direction and take out the FOB. Epic stuff, wish I could remember the guy's name. I slowly stopped playing games for a while and kind of forgot Squad, as my Tarkov addiction started. I then got reminded about it since many people I follow started doing streams for the game's launch! I'm thrilled to give the game another shot!

Glad it finally has a proper tutorial. I last played a few years ago, back when the BMP was the most heavy hitting vehicle in the game. Most of the game was fairly straight forward... except the squad lead role. At the range, none of the SL functions could be used or accessed. So the only way to learn how to use them was in-game. That sucked, big time. But I had a blast just being a rifleman and trying to be helpful. I was always that guy who would do the logi runs when needed, while the rest of the team was getting into fire fights. Also had fun as a medic, everyone LOVES a good medic. Nothing worse than going down, and the map shows your squad’s medic is being a lone wolf on the other side of the map 🤦♂️

Nice video Moi! Here’s a few VERY useful extra tips that will improve your gameplay for those that are interested: - Bind your map opening/closing and zoom to your mouse if you can. This massively increases your awareness as you can constantly check your map and close it when threatened. - Talk A LOT about what you hear and what you see. Comms are absolutely key to winning a game, it doesn’t matter if you don’t know what you’re hearing. Mention it and it’ll keep you and your Squad much more effective. - Take note of everything you hear/see in the game. If enemies keep coming from 1 direction, most likely they’ll have a spawn point in that general direction. Visualize where the enemy team is positioned based on your own team’s positioning. - Finally, I gotta reiterate the importance of managing your stamina - it is the best way to get your kill count up!

Don't create a squad if you don't intend to lead it. 3. Listen to your squad lead and in some cases fireteam leaders. 4. Don't pick important roles if you don't know how to use them, such as HAT. (This doesn't mean don't ever choose a role you want to learn) 5. When using your mic don't flood the squad radio with unnecessary info and or hot mic. Keep those things to local voip.

I think an important note for new players is to forget what you know about "other" FPS games. Squad is definitely not like BF or CoD, and the meta is different from even Hell Let Loose for example. To avoid frustration or finding it "boring" you need to understand that it's not about the run and gun and not even about the kills, but quite literally about your squad, communication and working together tightly. Every game I play on Squad in a communicating, well organized squad is amazing regardless of kills or even action sequences. This might seem counterintuitive to new players, but it's just the way it is. Trust me. There's a certain feeling that this game can give you, no other game can. (maybe old Project Reality as well) You can spend an hour walking around, digging HABs and taking a few pot shots at enemies too far away to kill, and then get shot from a bush somewhere, and STILL love that experience. How does that work? Don't know. But just let go of your preconceived notions of FPS games, and let it happen.

Just starting out in the full release, I played early access a while back but I'm a complete noob. Just did about 5 rounds and I 100% agree with you. I had one round where I got 4 kills and made a nice stand, but it was useless in the grand scheme of things. The most fun I had was a different round where our squad leader organized us into building a huge defensive position, which trucks driving back and forth reinforcing. We had mortars, MG nests, a TOW on a roof, and an entire road block of sandbags. We just took pot shots at enemies far away but it was awesome and we held an effective defense for our team to stage out of.

Build mortars. Build MG nests. Drive the logi back to base for another resupply. Set up a HAB in this small building that seems to be in the middle of nowhere. Then take their objective and push them back. Ah! What the hell is squad 5 doing?! They're in the wrong position!"

Thank you for uploading this video! I watched this before jumping into my first few games of Squad, and it helped understand a lot of what was going on, and allowed me to learn more during the game as well.

This is a game that will bypass most gamers radar cause of its difficulty but when you truly learn how to play it, its the best shooter available right now. I had 40+ hours of just jumping into games, not understanding where to go, or following someones order into death and it was just not good. But when i stepped back a moment to try and try to learn the different modes and how to behave in a squad it got really really fun. The combat sitautions are so damn intense and when you pull off taking over a flag after intense battles its really a good feeling. That said, i really hope Squad devs put a more advanced tutorial into the game cause its a really confusing game. Just handling the map itself and understanding all the circles, icons can be really confusing.

Can testify, bought the game on Sunday and I've chosen medic for most games, I like steep learning curves and I told my squad I was new but when things got heavy and I was trying to field bandage and use my med kit and throwing stupid smokes.. Oh I'm so glad I bought this game. Had some fun role play moments and team building/meeting random people. Got to say this community is amazing, everyone so helpful.

I just started, and the thing I struggle with the most is knowing where to go. Even on the game mode that has a preset capture path, it wasn't clear at all to me what that path was by looking at the regular or command map.

I used to play "America's Army" back in v2.8.5 and this game looks ridiculously similar in terms of playstyle, cause larger maps were HUGE (for the time) and took lots of teamwork. Even smaller maps like the SF maps were more tactical than run and gun. Downloading this right now lmao

Ive had this game since maybe 2017 but could never get into it as i just felt to intimidated joining a squad in fear of screwing stuff up for the team. Im now reinstalling it after all this time to see not only how far it has come but to see if i can learn the basics and find some people to have some fun with and enjoy the game. So i guess its time to squad up, P.T.F.O and shoot the shit out of some bad guys XD

Generally, You have to join a separate vehicle squad, and only certain vehicle operator classes can use vehicles. The more common trucks are general use, I think. Just do the regular squad stuff with vehicles first before u try to specialize.

I made the mistake of creating my own squad when I first started playing. One of my squad mates requested that I promote him to leader, I told him I didn't know how. He impatiently kept repeating himself saying to just pick him from the menu and promote him. I was still alive and didn't know how to do it. Then him and I both got shot and died, which made me feel a little frustrated. When I then was at the spawn screen, I was overwhelmed by everything on my screen but him pressuring me and repeating himself made me feel even more overwhelmed, it took me like maybe 1 minute to find how to do it, but at that point he told everyone he was going to create a different squad in which he and everyone just left. There was no patience at all but I learned from my mistake lol

I have to learn more as I play. I'm just using a G14 ROG and doesn't have an external display. I think most of the good players are using bigger screens and are able to spot enemies easily.

My first game in Squad was *wild*... I joined a server that had the british flag, because I only speak english and it had a low ping, but everyone there only spoke French. Cool, I said to myself, I guess I can work with this... so I hopped into the back of a truck and went off with some group. We were shot at, but none of us caught a bullet, kept driving for a bit longer and all got off when we were safe. The driver then proceeded to run me over and send me under the map, where I just sat falling down and down and down until I eventually died and then quit. Fun times, can't wait to play again tomorrow :)

One of my favorite games was when I was pretty new. I took SL because we had no other squads but I had just played enough to know how it works. Everyone who joined my squad was green as grass. We all took our time and ended up defending against a massive assault from the forest. We all lined up on a knoll and I was using my binos and compass co-ordinates to direct my squads fire. "infantry at 300, aim higher, good hits, Armour 340 (AT missile fires), good hit vehicle down". We effectively won our team the game and all my guys were super psyched and it was a nice confidence booster.

I played the turtorial and shooting range for HOUS before I joined for the first time. Then played a lot, even though I struggled with the heaviest technical problems due to my weak laptop I was playing on. And still I had the most memorizable situations of my gaming-livetime in Squad. But instead of being a squadmember who is allowed to learn, I almost ALWAYS was forced to be leader (because all other squads were closed, full or everybody else was waiting for anyone to start a new, or did it themselfes and quitted on the lead instandly) and I tried my very best, but it was stressfull and it wetened my t-shirt every match... ppl wouldn't listen, just joined, ran away doing their assasin's crap.
