I mean I am no saint when it comes to unnecessary comments like ”shit he got me” or ”bullshit” and I have my PTT switched on all the time :mrgreen:  But yes, some people talk more and some are more of a silent types. Yet when there is more people on discord I try to restrain myself to as minimum of unnecessary commentary as possible, so only relevant info is passed to other players.

And sorry in advance if I am taking things too far too fast, or if people think that I might be taking the game way too serious, yet I think that we could have a lot more quality matches if we do the following (if people want to, of course ):

  • CHAIN OF COMMAND:
    Listen to your CO or commander, what he says is law (we can vote for a new one if he really is performing poorly, but we should all learn to command)
    commander gets to order squad leaders around and decide what objective to take. Yet if falls onto SL or squad leaders to decide how his squad would achieve given oreder/objective (direction of approach, where to deploy smokes, what weapons he needs – does he need a pointman/scout up front to detect traps/mines, where should the MG set up to provide cover,…)
    Therefore the CO and SL do most of the talking in voice chat for the exceptions of when you spot an enemy or have some other ”important” game related info to report.
    So no matter what you think about what your CO has decided or what your SL has you doing, you should do it, even if it proves to be a totally idiotic move, we all learn from mistakes.
  • GET RID OF ”LEFT AND RIGHT”:
    People often forget that other players might not be facing the same direction as they are. And if you are saying ”they are on the left side!” enemy might really be on the right side or in front, maybe even behind another player! We have a compass(HUD) and a map in this game, let’s use them! So if you say: ” Enemy is using the eastern approach to Bravo” all the people (I hope) should know where the enemy is. And furthermore, commander can request marks on the east side of Bravo even if he has no recon/scouts available, because what he has, is firsthand info from the front line! Sure, you can spot enemy positions with an appropriate function that is in the game, but the marks ingame are 50% of the time false or just a ”missclick”.
  • TRY NOT TO SHOOT AS SOON AS YOU SEE AN ”ENEMY”:
    I know target ID in these games can be hard since half of US guys are running around naked and with bandanas on their heads so it’s easy to mistake them for VC and the VC have some helmets that resemble US helmets at a distance, yet try and look twice if you are no 100% sure about the target and maybe just report an ”unknown contact” to your team mates.
    Also if a team is performing a ”wide flank maneuver” to try and get behind the enemy, it is not the wisest thing to shoot at every target you see, especially if they have not spotted you yet. One kill is not worth compromising the entire team, again rather report the contact and keep an eye on him.

I know that most of the people have read just a bit of this before stopping and thinking: the hell is this new guy trying to be so fucking smart about? :mrgreen: but I really believe that that this game has the potential to be played a little different, better than most of the FPS games. So maybe, just maybe we could give it a shot?
