Side note, try and stick with the same class all game and if your gonna switch do it off an ammo crate or ifv/apc. If you change roles off the spawn screen you spawn with no ammo and will drain all of your teams ammo in the field when you rearm. but if you switch of an ammo crate or a vehicle it will cost much less ammo
This is the 6th or 7th "squad beginners" video I watched, and this contains a LOT of things that other videos don't talk about. For example, basic things such as squad leader role, FOBs and logistics vehicles. Helped me a lot. Thank you.
So I got squad in sale, the game has been out for a while now so you'd think there would be plenty of beginner guides out there that explain the fundamentals of the game...there isn't... it's this. This is the single video I've found that actually explains what the fuck you're supposed to do in the game. I know a lot of content creators have hundreds of hours in the game and see a video like this as pointless but I want to say thank you as it really isn't as cut and dry as something like hell let loose in terms of what you're supposed to do.
Thanks mate, glad I could help. I noticed the same thing when I started playing the game and that's why I included the things that were really unclear to me!
it's not THAT complex but it's also not like other shooters where you can run around like rambo and kill everyone I play R6 alot so it definitely took me awhile to get used to squad but once I did it's now one of my favourite games and before I knew it I was addicted lol
Hell Let Loose definitely helped soften the transition from Battlefield and the like to this type of gameplay, but Squad is certainly on another level. The chaos is terrifying and amazing! Thank you for a guide to help point me in the right direction.
Thanks man! I started playing today and everyone was friendly and helpful in the the matches I played and this video made me understand what to do and also what I love to do! I will be bob the builder always :) Edit: btw my game keeps crashing on training grounds always when I enter jensen’s base.. do you know a fix ?
It's an amazing game, especially since the combat overhaul that just released in my opinion. Found a lot of games with great comms. Hope you will enjoy it!
Might I ask, is this game worth getting into if you're someone who is shy and introverted? I love the immersiveness the game offers, but the idea of having to communicate with others worries me.
you do need to communicate on a mic but not much, just an "affirmative" to allow the squad leader to know you hear them every so often will get you by most of the time but im new and am finding every one super friendly
I've been hopping on and off Squad every couple of months for years and I'm still feeling useless everytime. Now an actual war started in my country and that put me off playing. Might start playing again soon
how do the vehicles spawn? i think the game looks fun but i would be more intrested in driving logistics trucks or other vehicles. so are the vehicles limited or something?
They spawn at HQ at the start and when they get destroyed there's a timer until they spawn again. A common tactic is to destroy the tires of an enemy logistics vehicle in a remote location so it can't spawn and the enemy can't build a FOB.
@@milesmartig5603 it does but check out some dlss settings guides for squad. You can make the scope clear by upscaling it before it automatically turns off when you turn on dlss and it stays clearer!
thank you for this. I'm thinking of buying this when it goes on sale. I heard its key to find a good discord and meet some good people. If you pug it, I heard this game is awful?
Depends on which button is being held or toggled and by whom. I'm a left hander so my right hand is my keyboard hand so I prefer toggling Vs holding as it frees up a finger to hit another key
A FOB is a Forward Operating Base, basically the base you can build when an SL drops a radio. The HAB is specifically the spawn bunker. But it's often used interchangeably.
From the few games I’ve had- (bought the game yesterday) a few of the “new player friendly” servers aren’t that at all! And some are! If you tell your squad you’re brand new- 8 out of 10 times they will explain as you go!
These games don't care who u are or where u located. Just don't be a Jerk and you will be fine. Don't preach politics or religion ect.... its just a game and players want to have fun win or lose.
way too mean-sounding voice + no info regarding the ticket draining system, or what the reason/s is/are behind the SL telling you "dig down the radio" - why?
Allowing the enemy team to destroy one of your radios makes you lose (not sure but I think 25) tickets. So when you think you can't hold the position of a radio it's best to dig it down and prevent ticket loss.
@@hex2637 yeah, about that, when one finds him-/herself in the kit picking/spawning menu with the map etc, in the top right corner, there is a ticket symbol - that I just found out about - which shows exactly those numbers; -x tickets if X is gone, -2 or -5 tickets if commander gets killed and so on.
I really like the part where he says he's going to assume we know the basics and then proceeds to go through the options menu, explaining the most basic gaming procedures. You should be checking graphics and key bindings every time you start a new game. That's just common sense.
yeah but knowing which keys in this game should be rebound is a different matter.. you aint gonna need the map so much in other BF type shooters.. knowing the importance of different controls is a different subject

Copy thank you
Another note, you can circumvent this by spawning at your main base. Spawning at your main will resupply everything on you.
I played my first squad game last night and ran into this exact situation😂 thanks for the advice tho

Well, this game is not rocket science. Just run and shoot.
@@AnatolySperansky "just run and shoot"....hope you're never on my team
@@chaoticambiance Lmao. That's literally the point of this game. IT'S an FPS
@@AnatolySperansky this isn't Battlefield
I got squad during the HLL update 14. Squad is a completely different beast.
Yeah it has some similarities with HLL but everything goes much deeper
never heard of the game before, but it sounds really complex and interesting
Definitely worth it
It’s hard as fuck! 😂😂 great game though!
I started playing yesterday. Can't wait to play more.
it's not THAT complex but it's also not like other shooters where you can run around like rambo and kill everyone
I play R6 alot so it definitely took me awhile to get used to squad but once I did it's now one of my favourite games and before I knew it I was addicted lol
@@ohhkennny766 It will easily consume 20+ hrs to get accommodated with the basics and get your bearings

No problem mate. I also made the same transition and it's quite a different ball game for sure
3:08 looked sick!
Well, what are we waiting for then? Let's get us some Squad-Action :-) Cheers and thanks for the comprehensive vid - Jim
Yeah lets go!
"this guide assumes that you aren't stupid" 11b has left the chat
0311 is still trying to figure out how to get in the chat
As a new Squad player this video is great! I did not know about the different map versions! Thanks for the tips!
Thanks man! I started playing today and everyone was friendly and helpful in the the matches I played and this video made me understand what to do and also what I love to do!

Edit: btw my game keeps crashing on training grounds always when I enter jensen’s base.. do you know a fix ?
No problem! Glad you enjoy it. I'm not sure what the issue could be, never had that bug before. Perhaps verifying the game files in Steam?
I just got the game. Thanks a lot.
Thanks for the video, just picked up squad yesterday!
Hope you will enjoy it!
5:03 I thought dude was bout to bust out a freestyle
I’ve been looking for a big boy shooter and arma looks like too much but this seems more of a step above sandstorm so I just bought it
It's an amazing game, especially since the combat overhaul that just released in my opinion. Found a lot of games with great comms. Hope you will enjoy it!
Amazing Guide for beginners! Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
Thank you!🤩
Thank you sir
"This guide assumes that you aren't stupid."
Me: Damnit! *Looks for new video*
Haha, I put it in there to scare away potential viewers! 😂 I like your guides too, cheers!
NEVER PLAY NEW PLAYER FRIENDLY. Join an experienced server and just ask your squad leader if it’s okay if you’re new.
so basically modern day hell let loose :D good guide

Great thanks
Little tip: always save one bandage for yourself. Life saver.
nice vid this helped me out a lot
Glad to hear, it's quite a complex game to get into
lekker man. goeie videooo
How can he open his scope so quickly, where he is aiming at?
When I open after running, the player takes its time to relax and aim right
It's gameplay from before the infantry combat overhaul, they made some big tweaks since then
7:29 oh god that killed me
how do the vehicles spawn? i think the game looks fun but i would be more intrested in driving logistics trucks or other vehicles. so are the vehicles limited or something?

Bro is this game still active???
I rather go to play Hell Let Loose because Its easier and much more less stressful, thank you :)
True story ;)
For me, arma was a little TOO complicated. So is this essentially modern hell let loose?
What graphic options are ya using? Your game looks much better than mine
Back then I played on medium ish 1080p with low shadows but nowadays high 1440p with dlss.
@@GoudaGamer doesn't DLSS make it harder to peek pixels?
@@milesmartig5603 it does but check out some dlss settings guides for squad. You can make the scope clear by upscaling it before it automatically turns off when you turn on dlss and it stays clearer!
thank you for this. I'm thinking of buying this when it goes on sale. I heard its key to find a good discord and meet some good people. If you pug it, I heard this game is awful?
Bro is it common for people to use toggle over hold on pc? Been console all my life getting a pc this month
do what yuo like not how everyone else likes
Depends on which button is being held or toggled and by whom. I'm a left hander so my right hand is my keyboard hand so I prefer toggling Vs holding as it frees up a finger to hit another key
Can the game be played by an xbox controller?
Hey do you play with a certain group? As fellow Dutchie and newcomer to the game, I'd like to join a group that has good teamwork.
THIS GAME NEED A DAYZ MOD SOOOOO BAD
Is it even worth considering getting this if I don't wanna use a mic?
Nope

What’s the difference of a hab and a fob I’m so confused
A FOB is a Forward Operating Base, basically the base you can build when an SL drops a radio. The HAB is specifically the spawn bunker. But it's often used interchangeably.
I have rtx 4060 8gb and i9-11900k and squad crashes everytime i have it on low graphic settings
How mu ram you got?
And what do you have it on? I suggest an ssd or nvme for games like this not a hard disk
idk how to play this game 😂. someone got mad at me because i don't know how to get into the car 😂
I am Indian can I play this game?
like will it be friendly?
From the few games I’ve had- (bought the game yesterday) a few of the “new player friendly” servers aren’t that at all! And some are! If you tell your squad you’re brand new- 8 out of 10 times they will explain as you go!

Check your map check your map check your map check your map check your map check your map
What game is this?
I love you
I liked this video on my 3 accounts, thank you
Proper dutch accent mate
So as a 13 yr old i might have a problem when it comes with communication, as people won't listen to me 😭
what if im a bit stupid? help
They are adding Ukraine in, so I think it's time to buy the game
Battlefield is that you?
Pretty much, Squad grew from Project Reality, a Battlefield 2 mod
"Ultimate Squad Beginners Guide *2024*"
Posted in 2023
🤔
how's the cheese, bro?
refunded the game becuase every server i joined said i was hacking
"This guide assumes that you arnt stupid"
Welp then this isnt for me
Ik ruik Nederlands

someone gift me squad game on steam pls
99.8% of yall just close the video. He said he assumed you’re not stupid. If you’re saying well it’s not me…… (it is🎉)

Oh, I AM stupid. I guess this isn't for me.
i play PROJECT REALITY its same
