- When deploying forward outpost with sandbag walls and razor wires, keep in mind that both soldiers and vehicles spawn there. Don't block them inside your little fortress.

- Insurgengy is different. If you play insurgency maps same way than other game modes, you will fail. Both sides should remember that insurgents have unlimited tickets and lots of explosives. Fire and maneuver - hit and run.

Squad leaders can mark the map for extraction, reinforcements or supplies even without a commander

In close quarters, don't try to raise the sights to shoot if you have an optical rifle. Run away or spray wildly instead. You have little chance against iron sights, and no chance against a pistol or a carbine.

The squad leader is ALWAYS right, unless he hasn't got his officer kit :D


Its not the medic's job to save you from incompetence.


If you are getting angry and frustrated, its time for a break.


Make suggestions to your squad leader, but his is the final word.


If you don't like how the SL leads, join another squad or make your own; arguing over the internet was fail in the past and it is fail now.

if you are under fire far from your objective, fall back and call for an extraccion, tikets must be used where needed.


to call for an extraction, while beeing a squad leader, press T, "need extraction", wait for an answer from the helicopters and then throw green or faction smoke over a clear and flat terrain. roads are a great place to be extracted only if clear.


ALWAIS find cover. it will increase your posibilities of survival and beeing resucitated.


to clear a room: place your squad near the door, throw a granade, dont let more than 3 guys enter the room or a granade from another room may kill you all.

bridges are important for logistics. offering your commander your demolition service could really help your team by obstructing the way for tanks and vehicules.

If you are resucitated in middle of a firefight DO NOT STAY STILL, FIND COVER. the medic injected you to heal you in a safe position, not in the middle of the street, follow his nickname.

smoke will cover you while entering a big building, as big bunkers or storages. use it!

the best way to use a granader kit is to place smoke over the enemy and flank them.


while flanking an enemy, you may split your squad in a half and try to attack from both flanks.

while flanking, a marksman or automatic rifleman may distract the enemy from another position and cover your approach.

ALWAYS use coloured smoke to indicate a chopper a safe place to land.

APC means Armored Personel Transport, so if you are driving one remember to check your map for squads in truble and extract them. also you can check for people in main that need transport and give them a ride. you are in a SUPPORT ROLE, NOT AN OFFENSIVE ONE.

If your tank ,APC or humve is hit, fall back to main to reapir it, dont stay to recive another hit!. that asset is more valuable than your life, (you lose tikets if destroyed.)


DO NOT shoot your AT rocket if you are not sure if you will hit, get cover.

make your rally point far from the fight or behind the enemy lines, or it will be destroyed by the enemy.

Do not bail out of a moving vehicle - wait for the vehicle to come to a complete halt, or ask the driver to stop.

As infantry, set location goals when moving, such as a tree or monument in the distance, and get your squad to move individually, to avoid bunching up.

"Dont Bother asking a British Army Rifleman for ammo, as he will only have 20 rounds, due to the current Operational shortage, go and find a US Soldier he will have thousands to spare, and he may even give you some half decent rations while your at it"

-Your zipties function exactly like a knife when dealing with enemy rally points, firebases and hideouts.

I've had numerous occasions when I told someone to knife a hideout radio, only to have them reply that they don't have a knife. Everyone should be able to understand that even if they don't have a physical knife they can still "knife" a FB or a rally. Perhaps the manual should also make this more clear.

- HOLD YOUR FIRE, and give the bearing 1st to give a higher probibility rate of your sqaud killing the target

- teamwork is a must, do NOT drive any vehicle on your own check if any 1 needs a ride even if they are not in your sqaud

- Get/use your Rartid MIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!, stealth and timing are key, the radio chat can give away your position, also typing will slow you down

- Use your kit to its highest ability, if u have an ammo bag stick with the AT soldier or drop it att the rally

I know we've got a tip about finding bugs and posting them on the forums, but I'd like to change it to:

-If you've found a bug, search the forums at http://www.realitymod.com/forum to see if it's been posted before and solved. If it hasn't, post your problem and it will be dealt with.

always go for the chest at all ranges, unless you are certain of a hit.

TIP: Heavy AT is an important kit, but a wasted asset without the means to re-arm. If ammo is not available to you, find a way to get the kit back into circulation for somebody else to use.


You could add... Pick up another kit, get extracted or suicide (Limited kits can be more of an asset than a single ticket)


But the suicide bit is probably a bit controversial

Cheers

While lasing enemy targets, make sure to type down the grids and type of target for the pilots (eg. tank at B3k9). Also inform any threats for your airsupport around that area (eg. AA close by).

-Snipers are not supposed to be part of a full infantry squad at the frontline. Set up a Recon squad with 3 players max. and keep away from infantry firefights.

-Build a small logistic squad to keep the supplies for your team going.

-Dont throw smoke in front of a friendly armored unit, even if you are under fire. It will block the view of the driver/gunner and makes them vulnerable to enemy AT flankings.

Medics can heal them self by using the bag while standing and looking streight down.
Or looking up while in prone.

Molotov's don't kill the crew inside vehicles.

I miss those two.

The time until you respawn maybe is long enough to drink something, but you should not go to toilet until the round is finished.

Think twice about teamkilling.

Make after every round a break of at least 5minutes. Otherwise you cannot fight anymore.

You think war is fun just because the games were great? Then I got a bad message for you.
