A minute of silence for the insurgent who got blown to pink mist when the gate charge was detonated

25:37 attention to detail, the yellow guy lower his rifle to avoid flagging his fellows while they are passing

don't panic, just... go dynamic 🎵 lead with a bang 🎵 violence of action 🎵 bring your stack back🎵 get cross coverage 🎵 clear from external 🎵 fight from thresholds 🎵 pull security deep 🎵 make an L 🎵 collapse your sector 🎵 clear the dead space 🎵 and always go with drummer 😎💕

26:40 The shooting from crouching is because the mechanic is: crouch for full cover until the enemy is reloading, then stand up and shoot the reloading enemy

I’m so glad I found this channel this is the content I’ve wanted to watch for so long CQB doctrine is a very interesting topic

I really hope they make the option to play super hardcore where you can only see the outside structure of the building, not the walls inside it. It would so cool to see you play that

38:21 He just bounced that nade of a window and it went 10m

I hope they put out the replay function soon. It is going to be so satisfying to go back and watch the full plan executed smoothly in real time. I would doubt some of the smaller map replays could make for some great short video type content to highlight specific concepts too.

I’ve surprised how much about CQC I’ve learned from playing competitive tactical shooters like CS. Things like “speed, surprise, and violence of action” are core concepts on team play. You execute a site together as fast as you can without telegraphing beforehand which site will be the target. Then, when you execute the site, you do it as quickly and avoid long gunfights with using multiple different entry points and use as much equipment as you can to give your team the advantage in every fight. Also, things like fighting from the threshold, fatal funnels, staying as far away from the corner as you can, and holding angles to keep everything secure. I guess it makes sense because it’s the same basic setup. You have a team of guys trying to take or hold a position using firearms, teamwork, and explosives. Obviously, there are a ton of differences too, but the basics of CQC stay the same.

This channel has helped me cope with life lately. Life has been pretty hard on me but watching this game has let me drift off for a couple minutes after work. Keep up the awesome videos!

17:10 "Where I grew up as battledrill 6" We found one of the terminators. Does lava still kill them?

Dude i really want cpg to do a live stream, i would love to see him play in real time.

This is very interesting. I've always wanted to learn more about CQC with some sort of visual guide, rather than reading through a long set of dense terminology.

The way the crouching mechanic works is that they take cover until the person shooting at them runs out of ammo, then they stand and shoot them.

I always enjoy these videos where you take the time to explain what you're doing and how you're thinking. Since I've started watching this playlist, I've noticed myself fighting from thresholds a lot more, and pieing off open breaches in a similar manner to you. Thanks for the series, and thanks for helping me subconsciously up my game. You're a true bro, Pairs.

Thank you for the instruction. I learned alot. The guidance can be applied to a number of serious CQB first person shooters as long as the team works methodically and does Rambo it

4:05 ok but what are those ways I need to know! (if I had to guess, ladders?) I'm super happy you're doing this kind of video, wanted to see something like it for a long time!

A door kickers game where you control a squadron of medeival knights breaching a castle. Mostly sword combat with ranged implements such as bows and crossbows being used sparingly, if at all.

Man I always learn so much from CPG I love these. Also I always notice the huge difference between experienced person and me with no CQB experience.

Super educational video once again, thanks for sharing!

As a civi aspiring to serve in my country's military this video was so much educational and entertaining as well. Thank you cpg!

You're a good teacher. I'm sure I would have made a mess of this game if I hadn't watched you first. Your lessons are sticking for sure.

Just a hint, bangers and grenades will bounce if thrown hard enough against wall, allowing you to clear the centre of the room while staying in cover. Keep up the good work

Excellent content. I love that this is a small map. Good to learn the basics as opposed to huge complicated maps

I love the focus on tactical realism. Keep it up, this was awesome.

You are telling the story of tactical of this game and making a huge service to this company, not just you and in general, it's been great finding out about you... I also watched your 8 years ago videos and introduction of your channel, it's just amazing to see what is your story not just as a creator, but it's cool to see that tactical is what many people wanna live and experience and yea, learn about. Games have a power and many people do not exploit it. Back to what you do it feels somebody from real deal came to the game or have a NPC that talks to us... this is amazing and I always wanted to play like this and have people that are open to discuss not just play. Immerse not think that it's a game.. at least for a few minutes.

Thanks CPG- this is definitely something I can use. I didn't know to flow my breachers in alternating fashion for instance, and it was good to see and hear you explain the logic behind checking the center/most of the room while moving, and how to angle people to clear as much as possible as fast as possible and not get breachers shot in the back or the side. Shooting through the furniture makes a good point, too! I hadn't thought about that in games/IRL. When you say 'lead by fires' does that mean either a force outside the building or inside the building shooting into a room through walls? I have to ask, how do people not shoot either people inside the building on your side, or shoot people outside the building who are pulling your security? A mental map of the area to know where your bullets are going? If so, what about risk of ricochet and fragmentation?

I fudging love this where have u been. I watched all these hours on bs tactics now I found the real one. You explain it perfect

Oh, early video access, how I missed you!

Living this series! I’ve bought the game and I’ve watched every one of these you’ve made so far.

Great videos man. Really interesting listening to your process. Found you today. Really like your replay critique video! Keep up the good work

Everyones favorite video game combat instructor.

You took this game to another level! most informative video about cqb on yt! thank You CPG!

Whole channel is underrated

I really love the tactical thinking, the mentality and the teamwork that is suggested (in this viedo because it's a game) for this sort of operation. I can see why this needs a lot of training because it really needs to become force of habit to improve the quality of snap decisions. At the same time probably some natural human tendencies must be retrained for the sake of the group? That sort of trust and moving as one must be a very special experience indeed.

Lots of great knowledge in this video. Really enjoy these play throughs. These randomly generated maps are always nuts, and really fun. Keep up the great content, brother! -R

The button hook seems like it would be the slightly better method since it naturally sweeps most of the room immediately, then 2 man comes in and sweeps the final blind spot immediately and is positioned between 1 man and is squared off towards the final corner. Is there anything specific that makes you prefer the other or is it just how you learned and are familiar with? Love how informative your vids are, thanks for sharing your knowledge

That battle drill 6 explanation was amazing. Huge fan of your work man

For 4:35, unless they changed it. When you want to hold security over someone working on a door. I found I was able to have the door man crouch, and then do the door action. Which allowed the security to hold a safer angle and shoot over the door man.'s head. I dunno if thats still a thing or if im just mistaken but give it a try.

Interestingly you take a lot of concern to use the real-life tactics, but seem to ignore some game-specific simplifications - which need to be taken into account, if you assume to do the real-life tactics. Because in real life the operators wouldn't do that and instinctively corrected themselves; but in the game, you have to micromanage it. Since Door Kickers 1, a very important aspect of operational tactics was “considering the barrel length”. Obviously you don't use Mk 18 for long range engagements; but also you don't take Mk 17 Long Barrel for a CQB operation. Because, in mechanics of this game, when you come too close to the wall, the operator will lower the barrel. In real life, the operator would likely re-maneuver himself slightly, to keep the barrel at the direction of potential targets, but in Door Kickers, you have to consider that yourself. Raising the barrel again to shoot takes those extra milliseconds, so it's another of those things you had to micromanage in Door Kickers to be more effective. Ammo in each gun, and "standing in the angle so the barrel is still raised" - those tiny game-specific nuances. For example, it seems like around 9:38-9:41, Bacon (“orange guy”) moves by the corner, and that's exactly what happens - his gun is blocked by the wall and he slightly lowers it during moving; so it would worth turn him a little more counter-clockwise. He is not that useful anyway at that point, cause if you have a look at the field of view (fog of war; darkened map, lightened map) you see he doesn't see anything from that point, and doesn't even see the open door; all the visible area is revealed by the “cyan guy” alone.

Your dudes must be so happy that they finally got to use those wall charges💥

Clear and to the point as always! Keep up the high quality content!

I had an absolute blast watching this.

38:22 I can imagine the AI of your guy throwing that grenade thinking, *Yes master, I will go there and throw the nade, however I can see you forgot to have me turn around so I will throw it through myself!

If I could have only have one game, it would be a Raven Shield remake with this planning system. Great video as always Pairs!

I love how you expended all your flashes without realizing it in the first building, then said "fuck it, we'll just frag the second building to the ground" because you couldn't safely enter.

In battledrill6 ...What happens when the lead encounters a situation where he needs to retreat. Is that even an option once the GO is given?

Dude watching you play and using tactics is inspirational for my future games/airsoft (also thank you for you're Service

23:20. Solo clear, good example there of force diffusion and priorities of work.

29:35. Good example of a blocker blocking the angle of exposure.

I think if the devs put a call out system for the personnel (calling out major threats like barricaded shooters) it would so helpful

Really good stuff. I am also going through door kickers and some of those new bomb defusal levels are crazy! Ur gonna love those Pairs!

Another Door Kickers 2 video! YES!

I'm pretty certain that I'm the only one who does counter-terrorism with a bunch of guys running through the door and firing a MK48

Oh, and a tip: when an enemy is behind a piece of cover and pulling the good 'ol ISIS shitter (blindfiring) you can hit them at a 4~5 meter distance. So at close range, you have the ability to counter it directly even if you're exposed. You lost your chance when you had your operators crouch, but I hope it helps in the future!

26:15 one of the door kickers 2 mechanic issues.If enemy pull off this kind of tactic this close range,you can always pinpoint their hand or gun.If no,1squad member suppress enemy with volley of fire,1 will try to peek and eliminate that enemy,others keep security of unknown threat.

amazing way to clear the final zone. You think way ahead of the enemy by external clearing

This might sound crazy or stupid but this confirmed I have solid instincts for CQB doctrine, at least in video games, I find myself subconsciously following most of these ideals.

Or, as an old guy that did this stuff. The number one man is always right.

My favorite episode so far man, love the channel

Cool that you cover the fundamentals again!

I got this game after watching you play. I love it!!!

Entry at 22:00 was just smooth af

Thank you for the CONTENT SO MCUH!!!

That "barricade shooter" bit was actually an issue of you exposing your operator- his body is in the threshold (of the window) but he's watching too far left to be looking into the window. That said, insurgents do suppress. There's a few other times I noticed you messing up some angles- like the guy covering the alley, he was exposed to his left. If your operators didn't go through the breach, he would've likely been killed.

Fascinating vid! Always interesting to hear you explain tactics!

One of my previous 1SGs was a former Green Beret, and he told us "Never sprint! You can walk through the most heavily guarded house in the world and kill every mother fucker in there"

Nice explanation dude. I'm definitively applying this to T hunt in R6S

Perfect explanation… been looking for a video to teach me how to do all this!!

Love this series just a guess from the lingo you use and how different units call the things with different names though. Were you in the 75th RR?

wonderful knowladge, thank you!

Just picked up this game because of your awesome content. Enjoy the nexus.gg kickback! Thanks for the vids.

Love these videos, can't wait to see even more.

When in the hallway orange fired from knee when enemy was reloading I caught the animation of orange went into a ready stance and fired off one shot I've been playing door kickers since launch and I'm very happy to report this they now fire from crouched position it seems they do this when they have the advantage like enemy reloading

how come no ones worried about the hole you entered through? no one kept security on that, someone could have come from the left corner of the map and shot you through your own hole. love the content man. i learn something everytime i watch a vid

Super useful video, thanks a lot !

Just great. Really excellent. Thank you.

This makes me open my notebook and take notes

Amazing videos as always! Controlled Pairs, I challenge you to take on the Vantage Point mission. Its impossible to get a clean run. At least for me.

33:55 is the flash really necessary? I thought door breach had stun effect too

i usually chuck grenades over the wall i replace nades with frag and stingers during hostage rescues

Regarding realism: I heard that if one throws nades in a indoor space a thick cloud of smoke would raise for quite some time, also several minutes if not hours and it would be hard to clearly watch, so this is ok in the game but nades indoor as far as what I heard are not something that one throws if a team is committing to breach that space. The realistic thing is that you did not breach but nade it. So it's still realistic even if that tango from the bath maybe would have not been soo easy to spot after a nade explosion.

How do you make your operators fixate on one point with that pizza slice? Is that a mod or just something i am not aware of?

Don't forget the GROM shirt. When you use it you will find a player that will be like: Poland???

Two words: Persistent bodies.

The pieing symbol is actually a slice of pie. XD He didn't fire from the knee he stood up after he was injured. I'd love to know what you did in the military.

What are those other ways of entering quietly? Climbing over walls?

Very Informative. I did learn a lot.

Speed element is essentially maintaining momentum throughout. Not rushing.

Underrated youtuber

What is your background exactly? I've been curious since starting this series

15:50 I'd have kept covering that room from the window, and wall breached the next room to the left. But that's just me. 😁

im 15 and want to be a 75th ranger, yah know, the guys whose whole mission statement is CQB Doctrine. I appreciate you and the very informational content you provide. thank you very much

If you could recommend a book to explain CQB and general military tactics what would they be?

Video like this is priceless!!!

Can you explain what the mechanics of double arrow is (Time 36.56 min) Thanks for great content💪

The first Rainbow Six was this but in 1st and 3rd person.

Just broke up with my first real girlfriend at 25 Got a "Hey, I'm sorry but i'm breaking up with you. Thanks for everything. Bye" last night. thanks for making these i haven't really been able to sleep but i've been binging these and its great content. are you prior mil?

God loves yall! :D

How do i get different color on the guys? I dont have that in my game...
