Quick clarification regarding building Garrisons. If the Support player waits out the cooldown and places another supply crate, it will actually replace the previously placed crate, so it's impossible for a single Support player to help you build a Garrison in enemy territory. You need your squad mates to switch roles, as suggested in the video.

A general rule of thumb that I use(I play console), which applies to all roles really, is that about 80% of people have mics, 50-60% of those people are actually willing to use said mic, and about 20-25% of THOSE guys are willing to be THE FIRST one to use a mic. So just being first to speak generally gets others to talk. It's rare to have a full squad of mics, but you can easily get 2 or 3 others to speak if you are the first. Basically, just speak first

Me and a friend of mine picked up Hell Let Loose a few days ago. I used to be the one making all of the call-outs on Battlefield and deciding what our strategy was and essentially running the squad so I fell into the role of SL by accident. I came to KZfaq to find out what I should be doing to help the team the most and I can honestly say this video was so helpful! Now I have a friend who mains support instead of rifleman and we’re popping up garrisons as much as we can. I love the responsibility of letting the other squad leaders and the commander know useful information that me and my squad come across and it’s always great when you’re pinned down and can request air support from your commander. Great game, I can see me being on this for many, many hours! Side note: This game has THE best community I have ever come across. So welcoming and helpful. If you haven’t used a mic yet, please do, people are more than happy to help you learn.

After a solid 20 hours in game I decided to have a go at SL since most of the squads were without one and I couldn't be bothered playing aimlessly. No one wanted to play SL. Got lucky with my squad, most of them were just happy that they had a SL and someone with a mic. They also were really understanding about me being an SL for the first time. I just kept my squad on the defence and tried to follow directions from the commander. We won that game and got all my squad member's recommendation. Felt good man, watching this before definitely helped a lot! TL;DR: HLL community is great, so just step forward and lead on!

Two points on node building.. 1. The support player does not have to spend the entire cooldown time within range of a manpower node in order to cut the time in half, he just has to enter its proximity once, at any point during the cooldown. As soon as he does this, the cooldown bar automatically gains 50% and does not reduce if he leaves the area 2. On Offensive mode, the defenders can drop their supplies from a supply truck at their own HQ, as long as they do it before the enemy capture their first cap. So, if engineers are quick, they can have all 3 sets of nodes built before the enemy is even out of their first spawn point.

7:42 I'd agree with that to an extent. A big part of your job as SL is relaying information to your squad and letting them know where the enemy is. So I will definitely double mark targets I think are important for my squad to be aware of. Tanks and enemy Garries especially. And as a separate comment, not enough people know that only SLs and Supports can see recon plane information. So when a recon pops up, it's important to tell the squad what you're seeing and ping enemy infantry that have splintered off from the main group or on your flank.
@coltoncyr2283 2 жыл бұрын
I normally over Mark the map. When Recon comes by, I immediacy look for large orange targets and Mark them as Tank and Garrison. It's safer to mark something than to not. If I see an enemy deep in a random spot, I'll mark as with a Troop. Atleast if my squad doesn't react then another squad will be somewhat aware.

One more thing about garrisons in friendly territory enemies within 50 meters will trigger the enemy near by, thus taking the Garry out of commission. On the other hand in enemy territory , enemies within 100 meters enemies will trigger enemies near by. So to all you squad leaders on attack place your Garry at least 200 meters out side the objective you’re attacking. Half tracks are currently bugged they’re supposed to become deactivate at 50 meters but they’re more like 25 meters.

One of the biggest improvements I have seen is not placing the garrison right on point because that is easy to find. I put two garrison around the point so the team will still have something to spawn off of. Once the action gets hot, then I relocate the garrison to one point when get have a good defense.

Got introduced to the "hot swap" idea of using support roles for sneaky garrisons. 1) SL drops OP where you want the garrison. 2) Support 1 drops his supplies 3) Squad kills Support 1 and one other player to swap to support so they get a 10 second kill cooldown instead of 20 for redeploying. 4) Support 1 switches to riflemen to open up the support role. Player 2 jumps into support 5) Support 2 spawns in and drops their supplies. 6) Garrison is built within 30-50 seconds and no supply drop is used to give the position away Support players can swap back if desired.

This video helped me out immensely over my first week in the game. Now I’m to the point where I get annoyed when people drop a gari directly on top of the strong point. I like to spread mine out, 3 in a triangle about 100m from the middle of the strong point, and use OPs on top of the strong point. Doing this, 1) makes it so that when the enemy does overrun the strong point they only take out OPs and you only have to run 100m min to get back to defend, instead of 200m min if they take out the gari or lock spawning. 2) they’re harder to find, since the enemy expects them near the strong point. 3) it sets up an intruder sensor array around the strong point, so you generally know where the enemy is coming from. 4) redundancy is important when the enemy is making a strong push, or a couple troops slip behind the battle and take out defense Garis, you still have an easy means to get back and counter those flanks.
@SoulSniperYT Жыл бұрын
If you have plenty of other garrisons surrounding the strongpoint, it's fine to build on right inside it. Yes it's more vulnerable to bombing runs and such, but you've got several backup garries. Plus, having the team spawn on it instantly gives max cap weight since they're inside the circle. But yea if you only have a couple garries (you should never just have a couple!) then don't build one inside the strongpoint. Unless you're desperate and losing the point.

Both times we won the round and my squad even got the most point points of any squad the first time, which felt quite rewarding!

Yep, that was an oversight. Each supply box replaced the previous one, if the previous one isn't used. So you can wait out the cool down to build a set of nodes since each box is used by each node. But you can't build a red zone Garry with a single support player.

when i play as a SL i dont even engage in pvp most of the time lol, i mean ,when i see enemy i kill, and i defend the point because nobody is... but i most of the time look at the map, male garrisons , communicate with other SL and CMD and put markers and call for supplies or artilery , SL is vital for gathering the squad together to attack or defend as a single force .
@SoulSniperYT 2 жыл бұрын
Yeah, most of the game is spent handling logistics and keeping and eye on garrisons. Sounds like you're a great SL dude!

Building Garrisons in Critical on Offensive Gamemode, especially the defensive team. Their have been games that I have loaded into with no other garrisons except for the one about to be lost. Then it becomes a run or drive to build a garrison near the objective before the other team steamrolls you.

Mic anxiety is such a huge problem for me. The one time I've tried SL I pretty much froze whenever the commander spoke. 😅
@SoulSniperYT 2 жыл бұрын
I understand that completely. It can be quite crippling for some. Just try to keep things in perspective. It's only a video game. Nobody will get hurt or die. Quite literally nothing is on the line. It's just a form of entertainment. Still, I get that you don't want to ruin anyone else's enjoyment or hold your team back or whatever. But then again, as long as you're trying and have a decent understanding of how the game works, people shouldn't be upset. If they are, that's on them and you should find new people to play with.

I feel bad being the SL of a recon group with my friend because i’m super timid but my friend can’t use VOIP so I gotta communicate with all the other SLs 😅 I also selected officer because nobody in my squad was and I ended up being promoted to SL and I feel bad because I wasn’t stern enough to round my squad back to defend the point and we failed an offensive + got counterattacked and lost the match
@SoulSniperYT 2 жыл бұрын
It sounds like you fully understand the role but that maybe it's not the best fit for you personally. I wouldn't feel too bad honestly. After all, you stepped up in a scenario you weren't comfortable with and gave it your best shot. That's all anyone can ask. Also remember - this is a video game. None of it really matters lol. Maybe what you can try if you find yourself in that spot again is saying things like "Ok Jig squad command wants us to fall back to Rue to defend so we don't lose the sector so please redeploy as soon as possible." That way even if you're timid, you're relaying the orders from command, which your squad might take a bit more seriously. You can also place move, attack, and defend markers on the map to visually communicate what you want them to do. If they still don't listen, then that's on them and they are likely a lost cause anyway, which isn't your fault. It's all good man! What's important is that you have fun. After all that's why we play right? You're welcome to join my discord if you want. We have a great group of laid back, fun guys and gals. Squadding up with us would probably help you become more comfortable on the mic if you're at all interested in developing those skills. dsc.gg/soulsniper

I love playing SL, get's me so immersed in the match when the rando's I play with listen and we crush objectives. And huge exclamation on that staying back to defend, I usually coordinate with one other squad to they can sweep 2 blocks on the cap zone while we sweep the others. Longest game I ever played was with a commander who kept telling us to push right after we re-cap a zone. Push, fall back, recapture repeat. Took fucking forever.

What's the upload date on that video? It used to be that nodes gave more resource gain the closer to the Frontline you built them, but that is no longer the case. They changed it so that they generate a flat rate resource gain no matter where they're placed.

Shit is hella fun tbh! They just need to improve physical movements of soldiers and just a touch better graphics.

What do the Squad roles actually do ? Does anyone know ? Like the offensive, defensive, logistics and artillery options to set for your squad. I think choosing artillery for example shows every other team markers on the map but im not sure. I'd like to know if there are advantages/disadvantages by picking a squad role.
@SoulSniperYT 2 жыл бұрын
I think it's mainly for the commander and other SLs to know what your squad is prioritizing. It also helps players maybe avoid joining your squad if you're labeled as artillery for example, if they don't want to play artillery or want an SL who is out on the Frontline.
