Is Squad friendly for casual players?

[Nachos]

I want to buy this game, the concept of teamwork and communication is cool, but i don't have a lot of time to play and to seek for groups/clans/etc'.
Are they enough open public servers for casual/ players? How people act there (teamplay)?

[PabloEmilijo]

Every server is for casuals but ofc you need to work with your squad if you want to truly experience this game and to not get kicked from server:D

Ok, thx for the info. Exactly what i need!

Well, it's not Dark Souls, but I find it hard to call a sudden headshot from out of nowhere a friendly welcome, and you WILL catch a lot of those if you play Squad casually. In fact, it is likely that you will catch a lot of those even despite trying to be tactical. Otherwise most of the players are friendly and supportive, unless you pick a Squad Leader without knowing what, how and where to do.

All the servers are open public servers. And I only play with pickup groups (I pick the squad name that most likely means they speak English) and usually have a pretty good experience. Most squads stick together, accomplish things together, etc.

Only way you might get yelled at is if you take an important squad role and then try to lone wolf it

But again players are quite supportive and help you to be good squad leader =)

Personal recommendation.
Play the game as a rifleman for at least a few hours, take in everything, pay attention, ask questions to understand how the gameplay mechanics work and pick up some helpful tips.
After you feel familiar with how the gameplay mechanics work, try out support roles, preferably autorifleman, medic, grenadier, and AT in that order.
Then if you're feeling up for it, and you have at least 20 hours in game, watch a guide, read a guide, preferably wait for a free weekend or sale, and then take on the SL role.

This is what I did, and I picked up on everything pretty well.

Oh, and also, technicals can be blown up by small arms fire (M4s n' stuff) depsite what some people say, they just require you dump a few mags into them.

Is there any way I can express my absolute approval of your point except verbal? Because I'd totally do that.

I don't know, start a fan page? Thanks, but anyways I apply the same sort of method to a lot of games. This also worked well with Red Orchestra 2, especially since the game hits a free weekend or sale so often

I would say Medic, because you will learn much faster how and where ppl die in the game. Medic has also the advantage of seeing on the map everyone who is downed or wounded with an extra symbol, which translates in improved situational awareness.

Rifleman has the big advantage of ammo bag and can potentially spam 12 grenades in a row. No to mention he can provide ammo for AT's and SL for Rally point which can be a gamechanger in the right moment.

Many new player gravitate to the marksman kit, which is actually a handicap in most situations and only very situational useful, on most maps its not helpful at all because the engagement distances are usually short enough a scoped rifleman can do the same job and has ammo and grenades as well.
