As a new player: quality of teamwork is not dependent on weapon mechanic but lack of competent leaders. Out of 20 games so far i had skilled and competent SL that used mic TWICE. This game more than anything needs SL tutorial, i would personaly like to do it myself sometime. Right now it is really overwhelming and game does not explain how to do it in any way.
This is one of the core issues with this game 100%, even when there is not a sale or free weekend this can be the case and steam rolls do happen sometimes more often than not.
@@jekkenburg5480 If you didn't want to play SL and bad teammates forced you to, odds are you're gonna hop off sooner than normal because you spent over half an hour, maybe even more than a hour doing something you didn't want to do, and odds are you're not gonna care as much as someone who actually WANTS to SL.
The issue is the servers either not having the right rules or not enforcing them. In PR, all servers require mics to SL and they really enforce it. Some even require a mic to play at all. In Squad, most servers I've played on just don't care, let free kit squads exist, let players lone wolf
Played a couple hours last night. I liked ICO and that’s what actually got me into Squad. 700 hours later I say after the update it still feels pretty good to me, but for sure gun play does feel easier than before. I got more kills and more headshots than I usually do. The usual crew I play with still stayed together but that’s just how we roll.
@@jekkenburg5480I absolutely hated ICO, me and all my friends stopped playing squad after around 15 hours trying to get used to it. But this update has brought me back, just played a few hours tonight and had an absolute blast all night
@@SONNENKVLT Damn after all this time losers like you are still coping about ICO. The SOLDIERS weren’t STRONG EOUGH to hold THEIR RIFLES. It was fucking ridiculous
I love the machine gun changes, my main problem with the ICO was that machine guns where so inaccurate you couldn't even suppress in larger maps like Talil airbase, not sure about the reduction of movement penalties though
Just bought it last night, and I got Reforger abt a month ago, mostly thx to you. Your vids quelched my intimidation towards milsims, and I think both of those games would still be sitting in my Steam wishlist, probably for all eternity, if not for your channel. You the man slorgs. Appreciate you.
Same here. I played ICO once and it felt horrible to me as well as the performance of the game being dog crap since the last I played. This may be my reason to try it again.
This update finally makes me want to play again, before I felt like I was fighting my character rather than the enemy, now it actually feels like healthy person holding the gun
before, i felt like if you'd just been running for 100m you had to take a knee for 5 seconds to catch your breath before trying to shoot at an enemy 50m away through a 4x scope. now, you just run and then crouch and start shooting. not having to take those 5 seconds to replenish your stamina was the precise thing that felt rewarding in that you had to factor this in. it was an extra layer in infantry battles. now it just kinda feels like running and gunning is back on the menu and that makes me sad a little bit. i played with the russian sniper role and it felt like i was using a red dot rifle from last patch, barely had to even bipod with it :')
@@MachinedFace88ttv lmao I owned the game since it came out and ICO was literally the dumbest change a game dev has made since Jagex decided to do their evolution of combat update in Runescape... ffs they even REMOVED THE SKINS I EARNED FOR SUPPORTING THEIR GAME JUST SO THEY COULD TRY AND RESELL IT TO ME.
@@yann9915 It's still a factor, low stamina puts a lower bound on stabilization, meaning on equal skill levels the player with more stamina is going to win, this update rewards using you surrounding to transition between covers which puts a higher skill ceiling especially on urban maps.
Ive been saying it when they started this whole ICO thing and I'll say it now. Teamplay and the ability to hold your weapon properly are not mutually exclusive. team play cannot be brute forced like that just by making the individual gameplay just less fun. there are games out there that heavily favor teamplay all while having COD like aiming mechnics. the issue of bad gameplay lies in the nature of team organization and servers/ teams being so very temporary, you cannot build a cohesive squad that knows how to work together within a 45min game session. a party system e.g. is long overdue
Not being able to sight and aim at a target after running a 50m in 8.1 without shaking like Michael J Fox was BS. I'm glad they made the changes in 8.2
As somebody who’s been playing consistently, the game is still very much team oriented and hasn’t at all become more individualized I totally disagree with that idea. Playing as a team is literally the only way of winning games, inleast in the more experienced servers like 7th rangers quick silver. It’s also just as hard to run and gun you will always lose a direct fight against multiple people enemies.
Bout to hop in to a game right after watching this. Been super happy with the ICO changes. The game feels incredible right now. I understand the need for teamwork, but having a much less crabby squad has been more than helpful.
I like the visual changes for the scopes they did in ICO but it affected performance so much scopes now have their own graphics section in settings. Hopefully the engine swap fixes that.
Finally I can use MGs again without feeling useless unless im prone and bipoded and shooting at the person from 100 meters away. Used to always use the MG and the grenadier class, stopped using the MG after the ICO because I just wasnt feeling it, excited to try the suppressed M110.
hey man, at the end, we managed to get on top of the Jesus :) I even convinced some policemen to climb it and made peace when the server switched maps :D
Grenadier is the best class, saying that as a noob who started 2 days ago lol. Easy to clear buildings and windows, better smoke screen, mark targets with colored smoke. I've been a great asset to my squads while playing Grenadier, but I guess most people using it do it wrong or go solo
@@SONNENKVLT Still alive thou dude, its a tac shooter so it will never ever have AAA figures. There is always like 2 full servers so not dead. Also my friend you can only play on one server at a time right hehe - Hope you are having a Capital day sir!
Love squad, kept playing even after the original overhall, this new update definitely makes the game feel more balanced and realistic. Teamwork is still vital to win games.
Am I stupid, perhaps a bit dumb or do I like gambling? I think the gun controls in 8.1 wasnt that bad, I enjoyed having to take a gamble each time I fire my gun, added a little spice knowing that if I miss I can blame it on the game and not on myself but that might change now
Definitely, but the community sees the game as a semi-cooperative shooter, not a milsim like Arma 3. They got a lot of backlash with the 8.1 update, this one will definitely will increase their revenue
They should add in a blue and red mode, where you can pick your own loadout and get general vehicles but the only difference is blue and red colors for each time, it'd make people with brain damage actually compitent at the game without seeing an enemy and running past them
As a 350 hr player thats been w the game since near launch working together will always result in that premium swuad experience everyone looks for ik squad leading is hard but give it a try people are will to teach atleast i am Gladiator’s my game name hope to see yall there
ICO dropped and I went from being able to land center mass hits at 150m no problem to missing shots at 30 fuckin meters. Glad to see they seemed to have at least made it a little better
I have always been a fan of the ICO but it’s in a good place. You still have to strategize movement with shooting but you don’t get punished if you actually do manage your stamina now. If you’re a player that sprints to zero stamina and shoots you’re not gonna notice much difference between the last patch, if you do then it feels great. Still gotta stabilize your shots so no easy long shot snap shooting. Its a good compromise. I still remember the pre ICO days and getting jiggle peeked, strafe headshot and instant 180 killed like its CS:Go ruined the game IMO. They do need to increase the suppression more though.
>ICO to "Mitigate the amount of punishment new players receive IN COMBAT while learning the game" >no such system for learning SL and specialist/vehicle roles >veteran players leave the game they've owned for 8 years >sales/free weekends leads to record noob count >once veterans gone and playerbase increased, revert ICO Feels good as fuck to be right. You noobs deserve each other and wouldnt stand a chance in pre-ICO bc you dont like to do hard things.
I was in a few games in this video and i didn't even know about the update lol, i knew something was up when i could actually shoot with australia faction
I just started playing again in the last 2 weeks or so and had no idea about the patches since I last played over a year ago. I thought I had just magically gotten better at the game! How dare you reveal the truth!
Loved ICO 1.0 once I got used to it. Every gun became a skill cannon but the game was definitely less approachable. New patch is great and turkey is strong finally!
As someone who played a small amount of how it was before and is now enjoying it right now. It’s a nice change. I caught a good glimpse of what that team work is like and how it made it work. But yeah generally no one cared 😂
Jumped back in squad recently without really knowing the changes that have been made. Felt like I was suddenly an expert because I was able to headshot enemies consistently and actually hit what I was aiming at in firefights. WAY more fun than previously. I also played back in the earlier days and i never realized how much the changed gun mechanics made the game annoying to play. I just thought i was a bad fps player for a bit.
Started playing Squad a month before ICO. Ended up only starting to enjoy it when ICO released. 8.2 is a welcome change to weapon handling. Weapon stability should be better or worse depending on the environment around you (aiming over wall, against wall, laying down, crouched at a log/low wall… Anyone who has shot while exhausted can attest to how much a supported firing position aids in weapon stability. Red orchestra did this concept very well.
I think the amount of players that actually want to work together will remain. It's a good update to fix the stamina and the guns it was getting painful trying to aim after sprinting or getting shot
Imo it looks like they are learning from the very immersive bodycam-like gunplay. Adjusting inertia and camera effects can have a great deal on immersion and the feel of shooting
I'm so sad they're getting rid of the ICO. It was so fun not being one shotted from half a mile away. It was so realistic. For y'all saying it was unrealistic tell me with a straight face that you, even with military training, could: 1. walk for miles through the heat or freezing cold, with multiple layers of clothing on and 90+ pounds of gear 2. holding an unwieldy 7-10 pound rifle 3. Sprint 60m through an active firefight, into a position where you are exposed to enemy fire 4. Calm yourself, shoulder the rifle, get the scope picture to appear, which is really hard, especially if you're breathing heavily or you're super stressed (The scope looks completely black from most angles). Then stabilize it and THEN finally center it on your target, all within a couple seconds. No, no one can do that. Its why most modern military engagements have relatively low casualty rates (and most of those are caused by artillery), because aiming a rifle in a battle is really really hard. For example, 43,000 Americans landed at Omaha Beach while it was still being defended, and at most 5,000 were casualties. That means that on open ground, with the enemy at relatively close ranges above you, with machine gun emplacements, and heavy artillery bombardment, the casualty rate is around 11 percent. This is proven time and time again, in battle after battle. People, even soldiers, are simply not physically capable of the call of duty like accuracy and stamina that was in the game two years ago. I don't think this is such a bad thing, it is a game after all, but for the love of god, don't say it was "realistic."
I'd say the problem in Squad was never the ICO itself, it's that Squad has designed ALL it's other mechanics to be a marathon walking simulator, where sprinting everywhere is required, and then PUNISHED players for it. Put the ICO on a medium, infantry only map, it would be fantastic But all the ridiculous mega maps they've designed for heli and tank players only? The minimum HAB distance and proxxy system? Slow transport trucks that cost tickets? Literally what did they expect. This game used to be so much better when medium maps, and maybe an APC, were all we had.
Last time I touched this game it didn't matter how much stamina I had, every gun fight felt like RNG and horrible. I could be at full stamina and still have to wait several seconds to line up a shot. All it did was encourage people to camp in bushes, which is all I saw the last time I played. Last game I played was easily the most boring experience I've had with Squad, where no one would push because everyone was camping and waiting for the other team to push. I watched tanks from both sides get bush whacked because no infantry would push up to support. I literally watched half a squad crawling because they wanted a better chance at firing back while they tried to flank at a snails pace. Spoiler alert, they all died without getting within 100m of the point. I was picking people off with iron sights at 200-300m easier than I was with an ACOG while they were simultaneously firing back at me. I had gun fights where I was 5ft from an enemy and we both couldn't hit jack shit because of noodle arms plus the suppression effect. This is a video game, not real life, it's supposed to be fun. None of what I mentioned was fun by any means for me. Everyone has different likes, but in the 1800hrs I played this game for, that period of time was easily the worst experience I've had with Squad.
LMAO they reverted all their work and went back on their word in the og devlog where they said "we want to stick to our original vision" and yet ever since the ICO they just make it easier and easier every patch. The game is about team play and that as the main goal of the ICO, and it succeeded. Now they have introduced all of the problems the game had a year ago, but now we have fancy scopes. The game isn't really supposed to be accessible to everyone only those willing to coordinate, and at the moment that is like 10% of the player base. super upsetting but it is what it is, I haven't heard a peep in the 3 games I Played even in local chat.
Speaking as someone that plays with a milsim group for Squad, the first ICO nearly made me quit even WHEN playing with a team. It made the guns so hard to control it was no longer fun. I don't think making the guns more usable is going to get rid of teamplay, it's just going to make it that much more effective. It's gonna go back to feeling like pre ICO Squad where, sure, a crazy good solo player can do some cool stuff but a team that can reasonably hit their shots and have some semblance of cooperation will bulldoze an uncoordinated enemy.
He said "I just clowned a guy" After scalping a fellow with a sniper rifle after running, stopping and aiming . . . IDK why but I found that quite funny mate.
Before the the update that brought the original combat overhaul I had about 900 hours. Since then I have 1095 hours. I still loved the game, but it just didn't feel the same. Definitely trying the update.

As someone who played a small amount of how it was before and is now enjoying it right now. It’s a nice change. I caught a good glimpse of what that team work is like and how it made it work. But yeah generally no one cared 😂
Jeff Nippard mention 1:14 hell yeah
32:30 don't lie to us, Slorgs
lol that 30:00 was tense. Waiting for the APC to move before shooting point blank infantry.
The Discord event link isn't working for me :/
I also put their discord server below, the event is on their discord
OML I didn't know you were in the Favela server doing a sponsorship. I was the one that built all that on the statue xD. Sorry for ruining the shot
Come to Brazil!
Jumped back in squad recently without really knowing the changes that have been made. Felt like I was suddenly an expert because I was able to headshot enemies consistently and actually hit what I was aiming at in firefights. WAY more fun than previously. I also played back in the earlier days and i never realized how much the changed gun mechanics made the game annoying to play. I just thought i was a bad fps player for a bit.
Really nice video! I will buy Squad now!
Started playing Squad a month before ICO.
Ended up only starting to enjoy it when ICO released.
8.2 is a welcome change to weapon handling.
Weapon stability should be better or worse depending on the environment around you (aiming over wall, against wall, laying down, crouched at a log/low wall…
Anyone who has shot while exhausted can attest to how much a supported firing position aids in weapon stability.
Red orchestra did this concept very well.
Loved that ad! Everyone should try the favela mod
How are you zooming in the scope? or is that a video edit? They should update with drone wars.
Zooming is done in the edit
What is the difference between Squad and Squad 44? Both by the same developper, but released two years apart..
Just picked up a PC, cant wait to get into squad!
I think the amount of players that actually want to work together will remain. It's a good update to fix the stamina and the guns it was getting painful trying to aim after sprinting or getting shot
Promise I like your videos it was me that was next to you on the roof I was karma😂
Im gonna play this game again thanks for this video
Imo it looks like they are learning from the very immersive bodycam-like gunplay. Adjusting inertia and camera effects can have a great deal on immersion and the feel of shooting
If you have a NASA computer, yes this is a great time to play SQUAD

the sorta celebrity??
neat
We are in the presence of a legend
I'm so sad they're getting rid of the ICO. It was so fun not being one shotted from half a mile away. It was so realistic.
For y'all saying it was unrealistic tell me with a straight face that you, even with military training, could:
1. walk for miles through the heat or freezing cold, with multiple layers of clothing on and 90+ pounds of gear
2. holding an unwieldy 7-10 pound rifle
3. Sprint 60m through an active firefight, into a position where you are exposed to enemy fire
4. Calm yourself, shoulder the rifle, get the scope picture to appear, which is really hard, especially if you're breathing heavily or you're super stressed (The scope looks completely black from most angles). Then stabilize it and THEN finally center it on your target, all within a couple seconds.
No, no one can do that. Its why most modern military engagements have relatively low casualty rates (and most of those are caused by artillery), because aiming a rifle in a battle is really really hard.
For example, 43,000 Americans landed at Omaha Beach while it was still being defended, and at most 5,000 were casualties. That means that on open ground, with the enemy at relatively close ranges above you, with machine gun emplacements, and heavy artillery bombardment, the casualty rate is around 11 percent.
This is proven time and time again, in battle after battle. People, even soldiers, are simply not physically capable of the call of duty like accuracy and stamina that was in the game two years ago. I don't think this is such a bad thing, it is a game after all, but for the love of god, don't say it was "realistic."
People who complains about ICO are airsoft nerds or flat range neckbeards who never actually fired a weapon while in combat and wearing kit
All of this for fucking what you wrote this word vomit for no one to care and almost nothing to change on squad it’s still the same
I'd say the problem in Squad was never the ICO itself, it's that Squad has designed ALL it's other mechanics to be a marathon walking simulator, where sprinting everywhere is required, and then PUNISHED players for it. Put the ICO on a medium, infantry only map, it would be fantastic
But all the ridiculous mega maps they've designed for heli and tank players only? The minimum HAB distance and proxxy system? Slow transport trucks that cost tickets? Literally what did they expect. This game used to be so much better when medium maps, and maybe an APC, were all we had.
Last time I touched this game it didn't matter how much stamina I had, every gun fight felt like RNG and horrible. I could be at full stamina and still have to wait several seconds to line up a shot. All it did was encourage people to camp in bushes, which is all I saw the last time I played. Last game I played was easily the most boring experience I've had with Squad, where no one would push because everyone was camping and waiting for the other team to push. I watched tanks from both sides get bush whacked because no infantry would push up to support. I literally watched half a squad crawling because they wanted a better chance at firing back while they tried to flank at a snails pace. Spoiler alert, they all died without getting within 100m of the point.
I was picking people off with iron sights at 200-300m easier than I was with an ACOG while they were simultaneously firing back at me. I had gun fights where I was 5ft from an enemy and we both couldn't hit jack shit because of noodle arms plus the suppression effect. This is a video game, not real life, it's supposed to be fun. None of what I mentioned was fun by any means for me.
Everyone has different likes, but in the 1800hrs I played this game for, that period of time was easily the worst experience I've had with Squad.
@@SONNENKVLT you've never fired a weapon in combat
How about an update where you don't have to click Switch Team 100x to play with your friends?
so its begun the simplification of the game in 5 years this will be a battlefield clone.
LMAO they reverted all their work and went back on their word in the og devlog where they said "we want to stick to our original vision" and yet ever since the ICO they just make it easier and easier every patch. The game is about team play and that as the main goal of the ICO, and it succeeded. Now they have introduced all of the problems the game had a year ago, but now we have fancy scopes. The game isn't really supposed to be accessible to everyone only those willing to coordinate, and at the moment that is like 10% of the player base. super upsetting but it is what it is, I haven't heard a peep in the 3 games I Played even in local chat.
In Latam we keep playing 24/7, whit this update more people join us
I think increasing individual agency is a mistake. If I want individual play I’d play Insurgency sandstorm, RS2, etc.
I disagree. I've played this game for over 1600 hours. It was better before the first ICO update.
@jekkenburg5480 better how? People running around, no communication, no tactics, 1 man locked squads
Speaking as someone that plays with a milsim group for Squad, the first ICO nearly made me quit even WHEN playing with a team. It made the guns so hard to control it was no longer fun. I don't think making the guns more usable is going to get rid of teamplay, it's just going to make it that much more effective. It's gonna go back to feeling like pre ICO Squad where, sure, a crazy good solo player can do some cool stuff but a team that can reasonably hit their shots and have some semblance of cooperation will bulldoze an uncoordinated enemy.
How does he zoom in so much? Seems useful to learn.
Its great again im coming back to it
Gets better when you play the Global Escalation servers!
Atleast in Project Reality, you were a laserbeam if you were situated and bipod'd up as an MG/AR class.
Nahhhh i missed the game haven t played in months now its time , downloading it again RIGHT NOW
He said "I just clowned a guy" After scalping a fellow with a sniper rifle after running, stopping and aiming . . . IDK why but I found that quite funny mate.
Before the the update that brought the original combat overhaul I had about 900 hours. Since then I have 1095 hours. I still loved the game, but it just didn't feel the same. Definitely trying the update.
