Your most stressful Role

[WhatMan]

I was in a squad when SL disconnected and i got SL by default. Nobody wanted it so I gave it a shot (never played it before)

It was too stressful for me. Commander asking for things, squad yelling out contacts and asking what or where to go. It was too much for me. I do better following orders, not giving.

Squad leading is natural for some people

[sylent/shooter]

the only squad type that I can lead is logistics xD other than that I'm terrible

[Not_able_to_kill]

First is heli pilot, if you fail, you lose your reputation

Second is n00b, because you never know when you're about to get banned

[ytman]

I get stressed out the most when I know or think I'm under performing.

As squad leaders we have most responsibility, we must maintain our mission, understand enemy missions/positions, manuerver and fire, order memebers, keep members alive, sometimes babysit members, and fuck if we run into a tank without an AT kit that I asked 5 times for someone to get then god damnit! >_<

That and yesterday on Silent Eagle flying against Admiral Kird... that was stressful because I never could find him and he always found me. Even when he did straffing runs on village people only said, he's at Village. Where? How high? Where is he going? Gah I freaked out

[Tallard]

I get the most stressed when I'm a squad leader and am being outclassed. Not only am I getting myself scragged every 5 seconds but I'm getting my squad scragged too and then we get to do the walk of shame from main because we lost the humvee too

I was BTR-60 driver in Mutrah: 4 full loads of ammo for our men (16 boxs), trasported soldiers around, helped to capture, 3 hueys down, 2 trucks, 1 fob, damaged 3 LAVs and drove them to ambush (glory for our AT men) 4 road kills for me and my gunner had 67 kills at the end.

Oh no it was not the most succesfull role thread :O my eyes are bleeding!

SL gets tough after a while. Sometimes I just wanna quit when no one else knows what they are doing. and my squad has to go 6 vs 25 insurgents. Not easy. but we try

It comes naturally once you become adept at the normal game. Most important for an SL is to know how to play the given map and to know what he wants to do. Being able to read the situation and see where he's headed and not just react to wahts happening but be a force that directs the events around him is something that comes with time, though some people are better at it from previous experience in other games.

learning is a long stretch though so stick with it. After a few good tries you start to get the hang of it. Its like anything else where you're leading, whether a job or a game, it just takes time and practice and confidence builds from there.

[Airsoft]

or at least make your squadmembers think you know what to do, even when you dont. Stalling waiting for the perfect orders is going to get you killed quicker than making a not so perfect decision. Even after 4 years of playing, the game, maps, objectives always change which makes it harder to SL since every round is different. Best reccomendation is play a lot it will help improve.

[KarateDoug]

It's SL.
All the dudes to account for and be the big boss for. Ya supposed to be the man who knows wtf is supposed to be going down. But it's rewarding none the less and far worth the trade.

[GrimSoldier]

Helo Pilot for me, So much to look after and the thought of dying with a full load makes you really start to get yourself in a panic

[sweedensniiperr]

SLing with mumble + cmdr = head explodes

[John-117]

i wanna change it to medic, so stressful

[ebevan91]

i wanna change it to medic, so stressful

So true.

I usually like playing as medic so I don't have to help build things, but when your whole squad plus a few non-squad members go down from a BTR, everybody is screaming MEDIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIC and you're running around frantically trying to get them back up and heal them before the enemy infantry comes in after the BTR is destroyed.

Some people are like "No I wanna be revived first", someone else is like "No I do!" and you're like *sigh..........*

[Truism]

Heli gunner because I'm bad at it and I have so little control over what's happening. Doesn't translate well for my blood pressure.

[OSOK1LL3R]

Must me squadleading or piloting a trans heli.

[Oskar]

Squadleading is by far the most stressful role in-game for me. Commander I've gotten over actually, what was difficult there for me was overcoming the initial mental challenge of pretty much having an entire team rely on you.

And then there's everything else. I'm utter **** at everything except infantry, so anything involving vehicles, big guns, choppers or planes will usually get me very frustrated.
I leave all that to the people who enjoy it.

[crot]

Havok or Apache pilot. You got to get atleast 15 kills until you get blown up, maybe like 2 heavily armored targets, before that its almost like you didnt do anything. Atleast for my "standards".

[llRvXll]

Sniper, everytime i shot somebody head, a medic throw a
smoke granade and revive the guy, lol.
