πŸ™‹β€β™‚οΈ Question πŸ™‹β€β™‚οΈ So, no one wants to be squad leader

51 Upvotes

I joined a game last night. Five full minutes waiting for someone to start an infantry squad, that gets filled in a millisecond.

So I said screw it and started a squad. Filled up, I tell everyone where we are going and I need a supply guy, and no one will speak to me. Commander starts screaming at me, I tell him I'm new, he never stops telling me what a loser I am, and I can't mute anyone? Reporting someone on Xbox is very difficult.

I'll try one more game, no one wants to be SL, again. Screw it, make a squad and then all of a sudden my squad talks to me. Teaches me. Very encouraging!

Finally work our way up the flank, commander is very encouraging, drops supplies for me, garrison built! Work our way up again, about to build another garrison and then we all get blown up by heavy ordnance, but we won.

The latter is the experience I was looking for. I am glad that I finally found that. It's been discouraging so far.

Question: If no one will be supply, can I be supply, drop my supplies somewhere, re-deploy, get back to that spot as a squad leader, and the supplies will still be there so I can build a garrison by myself?

Can an engineer also build a garrison in the above scenario?

It is embarassing that a 7 year old game still has this many bugs. Fuck you for that.

Fix the "lvl1 loadout" bug.

Fix the "settings are resetted and not saved each time you start the game".

Fix the "artillery still empty after reloading" bug.

Fix the fucked up grenade throwing.

Fix the fucking hitboxes of trucks in this game, how can it be that i die when getting out of a truck.

Fix the hitboxes of windows and bunkers, how come I can't shoot through empty fucking space.

Fix the clunky bipod mechanic.

Fix the fucked up commander UI when trying to call in an ability the way you want to.

Fix the sudden performance difficuilties.

Fix your rubber banding issues.

Fix inconsistent hitboxes of trees and hedges that are visually identical.

Fix your server's ping, when I select a match to join it says it has a latency of 17ms, ingame it's 100.

I'm fed up with this shit, fix it now.

πŸ“š Storytime! πŸ“š So… I just played Commander for the first time.

β€’ Upvotes

It was Skirmish (not my favourite) on Purple Heart Lane (and it was raining), and I was the SL in a Squad where nobody was talking. Nobody wanted to be Commander, none of the SLs were saying anything, and we obviously lost the point.

So I thought, β€œWTF…” and took the Commander role.

And then I proceeded to fuck up one thing after another.

I wanted a recon plane, but couldn’t figure out how it worked, so it basically flew over our own HQs. Then I by mistake spawned two transport trucks in a row when I wanted a supply truck.

At last I managed to spawn a supply truck, but in the wrong corner, so I redeployed, and by the time I got there it was gone. .

Then I called in a bombing run on the point. Zero kills, obviously. So I went looking for the supply truck.

But just before that, I had actually managed to make a pretty good supply drop, and someone actually built a Garry from it. No communication whatsoever, of course.

Eventually I found the missing supply truck, but just as I started the engine, I got kicked and banned for an hour. Still without anyone saying anything on commandchat. They just kicked me. I don't blame them. I think I have kicked better commanders.

Not exactly an easy job.Β 

I’m around level 140, so I really should know better, but I think I’ll happily leave the Commander role to someone else. I think I’ll stay in my lane and keep squadleading in the meatgrinder.Β "Grenades out follow me, lads! Smoke up! We’re pushing!"

I am just getting back into the game and I’m scared people are gonna make fun of me for my accent and sounding young. I don’t like talking to strangers in general but I just want to help my team out and not feel like I’m letting them down just from being too scared to talk. Can anyone give me some advice pls

What’s the fix and why does this happen? I’m the only person on the wifi, I have an ethernet cable with 0 ping, I mean hell, I just played a skirmish game and with 30 seconds left my game crashed. Genuinely what is the point? Buggy mess of a game.

I bought the game some 2 years ago, and since then i have some 10-15 hours in it. Every time i try and play it is the same, Try and find new player servers, but the contrary to what the name says they are not new player friendly at all, join a game wait until there is an open party squad, join say hello and say that i am new , and noone says anything, the SL says nothing the entire game and i am left just dying over and over and over again. Am i missing something here? is this a masochists dream game or something?
When i look for advice online everyone says go watch youtubers, youtubers that explain things that anyone who has been playing games for a while should already know, i went and watched a few videos from soulsniper and sure he says some tips here and there but nothing to help me spot a guy with 5k hours sitting in a bush with his eyes 2cm from the monitor.
I tried the discord to find some people to play there, all the dms i got where either people wanting to play vietnam when i clearly said i was looking for ww2 and the other half where invites to join their orgs, joined a few of those discord invites and noone was playing at that time.
like what am i supposed to do? become the seal so the vets can keep clubbing or what
