Hey. I ask for a very small thing here. There is lots of mechanical stuff with this game because it is a mod. Things new players don't know, and it often takes months for them to learn them all. I learned them quick because I was in a community where people always talked about this stuff. And it is hard for us people that has played for a long time to recognise them because we have gotten so used to them.
But when playing on public, non mumble servers that is filled with new players they often become a problem. About 50% of the people there don't have microphone, but I won't get in to all those problems now. But to give you a impression of what I mean. That's what you got there. No experienced people. But you some times get people in to your squad that are willing to play as a team and follow orders. But it irritates me more and more when they don't know all the technical stuff that they need to know.
Like.. Unselecting kits for other people to be able to spawn with it. All the stuff about deploying and building assets. Etc, etc etc. I can't name them all because I have gotten so used to them. But there are A LOT of them in this mod. You know what I am talking about. And they are no problem for me personally, but when you have inexperienced people in your squad they can destroy every thing.
Here is the most important of them all, and I really hope you include this one in the loading screen tips:
Remember to unselect your spawnpoint on the spawnscreen to avoid automatic spawn when you die.

I actually wish they would have a feature where you have to pick your spawn point again.. > > But i guess that would create more bugs...

You can select it but you don't have to. Thats the point.killonsight95 wrote:you can actualy select it.... what are you syaing here?
If you had to reselect the spawnpoint every time you wouldn't accidentally spawn somewhere where you didn't want to be.

Last night I deselected the ship spawn and on my death insta respawn on the carrier, happened to another guy who deselected it too, that seems to happen every now and again, anyone else?

I think it happens if a FOB becomes active while you are wounded, but I haven't been able to confirm.PLODDITHANLEY wrote:Last night I deselected the ship spawn and on my death insta respawn on the carrier, happened to another guy who deselected it too, that seems to happen every now and again, anyone else?

That's just a bad excuse. I have used it myself when having forgotten to unselect spawnpoint.PLODDITHANLEY wrote:Last night I deselected the ship spawn and on my death insta respawn on the carrier, happened to another guy who deselected it too, that seems to happen every now and again, anyone else?

Re: Useful tips on the loading screen
A lot of the tips selected are just silly and not helpful at all.
Spinning an enemy around for a ganglia shot is not possible, but a new player might try.

Players might be hardcoded, but that sure doesn't seem to stop anybody from trying.
The only winning move is not to play. Insurgency, that is.

Re: Useful tips on the loading screen
yeah i think that the loading tips need to be overhauled. Maybe keep the tips or try something else like a funny forum quote to lighten the mood.
