Anyone here playing, just got it for PS5 and I love it.   I fucking suck right now as I only have a few matches under my belt.   Haven't had this much fun in an online shooter in a long time

I added it to my library when it was on PS+, but I never played it. Seemed too hardcore for me, especially since I'm colorblind. Not sure I'd ever see enemies without a nameplate popup.

PC, but haven’t played it in a year. Haven’t tried the Russian maps for example

Its a ton of fun but it is hit or miss with the squads uou get.

Its more fun when people communicate rather than run off in different directions

Yeah, that was another reason I didn't try it out. Looked super team focused and I don't know anyone playing. I think I may have you on one of my friends lists from ages ago though.

Yes, I’m on PS5 as well. My screen name is my Playstation name if you want to join up some time and play. I usually play it several times a week as squad lead. There’s suppose to be a major update for consoles coming out soon and the game really needs it.

I’ll add you later, probably wont be on much this week as my schedule is all over the place.   I am very new to this game and have only stuck to basic roles.   I really like it though

That’s the best way to do it. It take several weeks to a month or more to be able to get halfway decent at spotting the enemy and understanding the maps. There’s a guy on youtube who’s name is monoespecial who makes Hell Let Loose guides; those helped me immensely.

Its good, learn how to command a squad and run your own, less frustrating that way.

The commander and squad leads have to do their part, logistics matters, no spawn points or resources and the team will get steam rolled

Its night and day between squads that talk and those that dont.  

I just played a round this morning and no one talked. It was a shit show, guys taking transport by themselves and leaving everyone, AT guy staring at clouds while a sherman rolled over everyone.  

I truly suck right now but damn I was trying, lol

I’ve run into that and it sucks; it’s not Call of Duty. I’ve also had the opposite experience and had a freaking blast.

I saw you on there this morning but I was trying to get some house work done. I’ll probably be playing this evening for a couple of hours around 8:00PM eastern.

Things I've learned with 600+ hours:
  • after time you can just glance at the map and tell if you are going to get stomped or not.
  • each squad needs to have someone rotate into support class as needed so the SL can build garrisons
  • The two objectives under your teams command that are the closest to the enemy need 3 garris for the closest and at least two for the 2nd one, it also doesnt hurt to pre-stage and hide supplies for future use
  • 2-3 squads on the attack at most (in most circumstances) at least two full squads on dedicated defense, one in the point and one ranging out as needed to kill enemy spawn points as they start to encircle the objective.
  • mine the roads and choke points and keep AT handy, any open approach gets an AT gun for defense
  • if the SL doesn't talk, find a new squad, if the team sucks and doesn't communicate, change teams.
  • at least 2 squads need engineers building nodes, they can just grab a supply truck and go do their own thing
  • deep flanks are the way to get into enemy territory
  • for the well coordinated, 3 SL's can ride in a wheeled scout car, get the driver to drop you off in deep flank territory and then throw down your observation posts and have the squads follow. two support guys can carry 100 supplies, throw down a garrison when they spawn in.
  • If you want to run arty, I get a one-man squad and lock it, run arty and communicate directly with the commander and SL's, the command delay from troop > SL > commander takes too long

The console version is multiple updates behind.

And I bet the PC crowd would smoke the console crowd as there is no auto aim. When running bolt actions, those half seconds truly matter

Consoles haven’t had an update sine November. I see a lot of different guys rotating in and out as I think they get frustrated with the glitches and the lack of updates isn’t helping.

I DLed and played it a little bit when it released to ps+,  but I was and am still loving insurgency, so I never stuck with it or learned it. I do remember not liking the controls, they felt clunky and not well optimized for console, and the lack of setting options to possibly help fix controls. I'm gonna watch that YouTuber a poster above recommended tho, it's an awesome setting for a game and I'd really like to get into it soon. New updates might help, yes.

Wow just found this thread.  

Have ~350 hours on PS5, level 10 SL, it would be awesome to play with some guys here.  

I’ll add the names I see that have been posted here.


My name is a name from The Pacific series…..

Been playing the shit out of this lately ranking up mostly spotter and officer.

Looking forward to the big console update next week.

I haven’t been playing it for a little while now. I was getting fed up with the glitches and waiting for the update. It will be curious to see how well the game plays after the update. I’m of the opinion that this game is sadly on life support at the moment, at least for us console players. I hope they turn things around but only time will tell.

I need to start playing again, been so burnt out at night that I've mostly been playing low key single player stuff that I can just jump in and out of, I don't always have the time for a 45 minute match, as fun as they are.

My biggest complaints with the game are intentional team killing and people that play leadership rolls but don't talk
