Considering how many of them make no effort to seek it out anyway I'll take this over nothing.

Dude i just made a thread with that exact suggestion. Yes this would be VERY helpful devs! Also doesn't break immersion since this is part of any pre deployment briefing.

also be wary when fighting a vehicle ,most modern apc/ifv and mbts have thermal vision than can see trough your smoke and you will only blind yourself while making the vehicle notice you

We should put that on the in game billboards

Something along the lines of "don't press num* to talk to one person"

Well I made this song and it kind of reminds me of something I would hear in a PR loading screen. You guys can use it if you want! /._./

READ THE MANUAL!!!

If you have nothing useful to say, please STFU.

Calling for a medic is like going to a regular doctor, you must wait your turn.

Suggetion 1:
"Communication between squad leaders is important. Use the direct channel, numpad, to keep the coordination up with other sqaud and commander. Only use all squad channel (*) as last resort."


it is my own experience that the radio discipline between squad leaders is often challenged. One reason is that there is too much irrelevant chat in all SQL chat.

Suggestion 2:
"Good conduct when using squad leader radio: Think before you speak. Decide what and to whom. Make it concise, precise and as clear as possible. Make sure the receiver is ready for the message"

Don't know if someone's said this already, but Murphy's Laws of Combat could have some good suggestions, specifically:

1. Friendly fire - isn't.
2. The enemy diversion you're ignoring is their main attack.
3. The easy way is always mined.
4. Never draw fire; it irritates everyone around you. (important)
5. Anything you do can get you killed, including nothing.
6. Make it too tough for the enemy to get in, and you won't be able to get out.
7. Tracers work both ways.
8. When in doubt, empty your magazine.
9. Air strikes always overshoot the target, artillery always falls short.
10. The bursting radius of a hand grenade is always one foot greater than your jumping range.
11. Every command which can be misunderstood, will be.
12. NEVER get into a fight without more ammunition that the other guy.
13. Sometimes, being good and lucky still is not enough.
14. Hope for the best, but prepare for the worst.
15. Failure of plan A will directly affect your ability to carry out plan B.

This is only 15 of the ones I thought were important, this is a full list.

Make sure you have a mic before heading into a combat by the time you type out 'enemy' your already dead. (or something like that,I'm tired of people with no mics joining my teamwork inf squad)

- Before shooting, make sure it's an enemy and not a friendly or a civilian!

- The best sniper position is always the hardest to reach

Medictactics:
Drop a bandage on a WOUNDED body before you epipen-ing. Increase patient chance of survival after a revive.

- "Remember that you can run while reloading!, however, you have to press first the reload button (Default R) before starting to run"

"Sometimes the road less traveled is more rewarding."

Bushes serve two roles at the same time , Partial Cover and Ambush. So think twice before approaching one.

That doesn't work.

Co-pilots:

SHIFT + "E" activates TV guided bombs. They are a little buggy though.
