Ah I remember my first time playing...First thing I did was TK someone with RPG on Basrah
ops:
It was so confusing
at first, but it's easy to get the hang of things
Tip#1 READ THE MANUAL
Tip#2 Learn what your friendlies and enemies look like up close and at a distance
Tip#3 Identify your targets-just cause you think its an enemy doesn't mean it is,If an Insurgent picks up a US kit he will kinda look like an American but so will the US if they pick up an INS kit, they will have a rag on their head-so if your not sure just pull out your binocs and check
Tip#4 Learn what the different weapons sound like-When I play INS I find most of my targets from them shooting at someone-which brings me to...
Tip#5 Get some Stereo headphones with a mic-It's amazing how you can locate the enemy by hearing them to your direct left or front-right or maybe behind you
Tip#6 DONT WASTE OR STEAL ASSETS-very important stuff here- an asset could be a HMMV or an APC or a sniper kit. Dont take an APC if you dont have a gunner-or if there is an APC squad who needs it- If a squad takes a HMMV out in the field and park it while hunting a cache, chances are they are gonna want it back- If you get the Sniper kit get a sniper squad going and get a spotter-grabbing sniper in an INF squad will get you kicked from the squad-And going off by yourself in a hostile city full of insurgents will end up with them realising there is a sniper from them dropping dead or hearing the rifle and then they will send wave after wave to overrun you and get that kit
Tip#7 Use Teamwork! Listen to your squadleader and follow his orders, communicate with your squad-tell them you spotted an enemy North at 10 degrees(example) before opening up on them-unless your SL wants you guys to hold off on firing as not to give away your POS so that you can flank around
Tip#8 NEVER fly in deployment without mastering it in training first
Tip#9 Thou shall not teamkill- but seriously dont TK no matter how mad they make you or even if they TK you first, just tell a server Admin, Don't punish an accidental TK, You wouldn't want your hard earned score set back to zero
Tip#10 Above all remember to have fun and try to get get involved in the PR community and stay active on the forums!
