I love playing the medic. I never revive teammates, my job requires me to be far more aggressive. I stealthily sprint (uncrouched) across the map, to the flanks, with my morphine syringe in hand, search out the enemy positions, and POUNCE on them in a very credible attempt to give them a morphine overdose. Haven't had a kill yet, but with 60+ hours of purely this tactic I can feel my luck changing! EEEEERIKA!

11. The random squad lead frozen like a deer in headlights in the middle of the point beside 3000 supplies with the commander and half the team screaming at him to build the Garrison.

Missing points 1) No mic players 2) Douchie argumentative/vindictive commanders that start massive fights and shouting matches on the command chat. 3) People using supply trucks as transport 4) Support players not placing supplies 5) Engineers not playing their role at all 6) AT not utilizing AT. 7) The lonely man command chat-where a player uses the chat as his primary mode of general life conversation the entire game.

I jumped in to Commander role only bc nobody else did and nobody wanted the job. I told everyone it was my first time and to just tell me what they needed me to and walk me through it. They were very patient and helpful and we came away with a V!

I'm a medic main in HLL. I get the frustration but don't expect us medics to come save your ass when you decided to run into the middle of the field and get shot by machine guns or snipers. Also don't expect a medic to immediately save you in a active firefight with the enemy in front of us. Also when it appears a medic is leaving you it might actually be them having to go around an obstacle that can't be climbed or crawled under.

I have actually been hunted while playing medic by my own teammate for an entire hour, simply because i didnt revive him when he ran 30 metres into an open field, covered by 2 tanks and about 10 players. Please understand that the medic is a valuable asset, and sometimes keeping the medic alive is a better option, not saying you did anything wrong, but just for everyone out there keep it in mind

The problem with medic is you aren’t rewarded enough to stand around healing teammates. The devs should give generous points for healing like they do for engineers that build.

The other day had a griefer. Said in voice chat right after spawning "Somebody put a satchel here" while he obviously did, right next to the garrison we just spawned in hill 400 map. I got close to defuse it and he shot me in the head. That satchel blew up and got a good chunk of the team killed. When confronted, he called out that he was inocent and that it was i who was doing what he did, reversing the facts. We lost that game just because 1 guy and his friend defending him on the chat.

11. Players who create an inf squad just to back out so they can rejoin as a different class 12. SLs who treat command chat as social hour 13. Players who sound like they just ate their mic and turned the gain all the way up 14. Commander / SLs who build red zone garries within 100m of enemy strongpoint 15. Blueberries who use the half track as a personal taxi / don't deploy the half track spawn when they're done 16. SLs who march right by supplies without building a garrison 17. That guy who gets the transport truck stuck half way to the mid point 18. The armor crew that cruises a heavy tank right into the enemy strongpoint for no reason with no infantry support, just to ask for another heavy when they inevitably get blown up 19. The players who won't switch roles, even for a minute 20. The players on offense who linger around the locked sector after losing the defensive point

THAT ONE RANDOM RIFLEMAN TURNING ON THE GOD DAMN ENGINE ON THE HALF TRACK, DRIVES IT TOWARDS THE ENEMIES AND GETS BLOWN UP!

I've noticed a lot of people don't want to be Commander cuz they get shitted on half of the time. Like instead of dogging the commander help help him understand. Then you have commanders that go on there and they don't even help they just go on there to collect the points and they don't do anything for the entire team.

This one is happened to me dozens of times: when playing a medic, you see a knocked out player, when you try to reach that guy, he just let himself go. Sometimes they let go when you start to revive them. I stopped to play medic because of that.

So a few that annoy: 1. People who pick engineer at the beginning and don't build nodes or use any of the other engineer abilities. 2. SL's/Commanders who don't quite grasp the 200m garrison spacing rule, or the difference between red and blue zone garrisons. 3. Engineers who put nodes in the worst spots, like the midcap or on the wrong side of the sector 1-2 border. 4. People who don't return their empty supply trucks when possible after using it for nodes/defensive structures. Apparently a lot of my frustrations are logistics based.

I have a confession. As an officer I will often either A) forget to place an OP. or B) Try to get my OP in such an epic spot ....but die beforehand.

Going to make it my mission to be all 10

Getting team killed in a supply truck as I'm on my way to build a garrison or nodes is far more frustrating than the transport.

I think when a player chooses squad leader they stay locked for the entire game.

Lol. I can think of a few more. 1. Class hogger on Arty, example... imagine a tank in front of your squad only to realise your AT is on Arty trying to perform some arty XP farming meta. 2. Using the 1st Supply truck at the start of the game as their personal taxi when they are neither an officer nor engi. 3. The genius who open fire immediately after spawning on OP or Garri unprovoked. Exposing our sweet spawn. 4. Desperate AT who fires rocket on enemy tank without warning the players around it, especially when engi or other AT around it trying to mine or Satchel the tank. 5. Recon and Snipers operating Arty, that may be the same as the first point. But the severity of this is pretty massive lol... it is effectively neutering a very specialised squad that are meant to go deep into the enemy lines to harass back garries and eliminate enemy arty into what any normal locked solo infantry squad officer can do. My 5 cents on it hahaha.

One that really chaps my backside is the recon team that takes the supply truck for their personal transportation and abandons it fully loaded to get blown up. Meanwhile commander is screaming for nodes

I remember my first real attempts at playing commander. The first time was because no one else hopped on. Immediately got screamed at by a squad leader for not immediately placing back garries and dropping supplies at his exact requested location. Him screaming also caused every other squad leader to just go dead quiet. The next was on a mostly empty server with one squad leader who was one of the most patient and kind people I've met. Edit: By not immediately placing back garries I mean we were 5-10 minutes into a warfare match and no one took commander role for at keast 2-3 of those.

Played commander a few times. It’s tough not because of the job but the people! Try not to take any of what these guys say to you personally. Just try your best and use encourage whenever it’s available. And like this video says utilize all your abilities to punch through lines and secure points!

3:22 much appreciate for noticing us man and all the hard works it takes dying over and over to keep you alive

As a medic I try to do what I can to revive all I can, but the ones that piss me off are the ones that as soon as I get there *poof*, they hit respawn. And it wasn't because they bled out. I could be 10m away and they would do it. So, sometimes I cannot blame a medic for kind of, giving up on reviving anyone.

Number 1 should be the two man clan squad who have the best OP on the entire map basically inside the enemy point but don't let anyone join them

The guys who take sniper team and are only watch and dont let anyone enter being a sniper. They waste space.

When I was a noob the first thing I did (once I figured how how VC worked lol) was state clearly to everyone I was a noob and asked for advice. The community is really supportive and helpful and they are the reason I got to where I am

TBH this made me realize that what Officer roles need is just some basic low-level skill check to make sure you understand the basics before people can join your squad. Like you can start a new squad and spawn, but need to use your watch to set an initial OP and that action officially opens the squad for others to join. This proves to all that you understand there's a watch and it lets you build spawns. If you fail to execute the skill check then you'll just stay in limbo until you figure it out, leave, or after 5 minutes it just returns you to the unassigned pool.

I jumped into the commanders role for the first time as a noobie and I tried my best listening to the great advice of the squad leaders. We lost that game but once in a while (I’m still a noobie) I join command and I’ve started winning more games, it’s all thanks to the squad leaders work as squad leaders and advisors

what about the players that take the piss out of driving the personal truck with people in it? like the truck is full and just drive circles in spawn for the first minute of a match. the engineer that doesnt build nodes / defences. the supplier that is holding onto the supplies like its a picture of his grandma. or the best one ever........ the riflemen that trows smoke into the friendly line so you dont see shit while you saw enemies coming your way. love it.

Also: Supports that don't have comms and won't drop supplies when asked Engineers that don't have comms and don't listen to requests to reinforce a point Anti-Tanks that focus pushing the point instead of killing the tank on our flank that command has been asking to be killed for 15 minutes. A big "I love you" to all my fellow last-squad defenders tho

Like the edit mate, good job really nice. 👉🏽👉🏽👉🏽👉🏽👉🏽

It's funny as hell playing with these people!!! I love it! Watching it, or having it done to you or whatever. It's hilarious.

#8 happens when all the squads are either full or locked and won't let a new person in. The guy who created the squad doesn't want to be the leader so they create a squad, leave, and play as the role they want to play as and hope other people join that squad so they can hop into the game. Not a bad idea, I do it all the time.

I feel you need to add one more on this list. Players who give up as the medic arrives to heal them or give up when the medic tells them they are almost to them. My buddy loves the role, but hates that people keep giving up when he is about 20M away.

Yea the non defenders blow my mind every time. I've been playing for YEARS and 90% of the games I've played not a single person out of the 50 players on my team ever think to defend. It's insane. Before I played my very first game I realized defense was important. How do you go on for dozens of levels losing game after game due to your collective tunnel vision and not think to change strategies? It really makes me lose faith in humanity to see how poorly coordinated most HLL players are. Rant over.

Bro you're freaking hilarious 😂 I'm subbing

Haha glad I found this video!! Too funny! Let me add: I had a Squad lead call me out for "not saying I built a garrison". But he RAN past the dropped supplies... so I called him out for not building ANY. And his teammate tried to kill me!! How about a level 75 squad lead who doesn't know how to tag a tank or op. "There's a tank right there and a spawn"... he then placed a move marker there. 🤦‍♂️ Let's add: Let's teach them. How can you teach them if they don't listen, talk, type. Game is slowly fading!!

Mute the people in the transport truck in the beginning rush to the point? Some of the best laughs in the game takes place in that truck lol

As a constant transport driver, you leave at 50s-40s and leave everyone who didn't get on in the dust. Thems the rules.

I remeber being squad leader for the first time as a noob and a guy yeeling at me in my squad, "SQUAD LEADER PUT DOWN THE OP!" that guy has been the reason ive mained squad lead ever since

Your squad leader rant cracked me up good. Number 11: the white knight who defends the squad leader who doesn't play the game properly. The only time I ever rage quit a game was when I was begging the squad leader to mark the enemy supplies and then their airhead. (We lost the point and my squad leader was still trying to cap a locked strongpoint.) Another guy in the squad was getting on my case for trying to teach the SL how to play. Like you said, take two seconds to watch a guide video for cripes sake.

I think you should add male players (or any player) who says shitty sexist comments to female players. Including "Don't you drive the truck - you'll a terrible driver because your female" (everyone is a bloody terrible driver on maps) and "Why aren't you playing the nurse?" (oh gee, I didn't realise there was a nurse role in the game), to "I'll place my garry on you?" and other sexist rude misogynistic crap like suggestions of gang-raping me in the back of the transport. Or like the dude on my own team stalked me the whole game and kept saying "I hate women" and TKing me. I'm actually a pretty high-ranking player, I think maybe they feel inadequate as I know the rules, am a pretty good squadie and tell them what to do. There are a few female players around, and they deserve the same respect other players do. #noplaceforsexismingaming also #justDontBeADick

Very very accurate 😂😂😂😂, loved it cause its on point 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

One time a medic walked up to me as I was down. Instead of reviving me he read me last rights and moved on

We have to lock armor squads as Duos sometimes for a couple reasons. Usually, we don't want to deal with a blueberry in the spot, which can be more dangerous than having no one. Plus we usually use discord instead of in-game comms so it gets annoying. We will also lock duos sometimes because we'll run multiple armor squads. So we'll field 6 guys in 3 tanks and use discord as our tank command chat. In those cases we don't need a spotter because our tank group commander will solo a recon or something and provide eyes. After 700 hrs, a good duo doesn't necessarily need a spotter, although you are correct. A three man tank will often be more combat effective.

I play as medic and for me my most hated is the guys who respawn when I get 1 or 2 meters away after I've ran 80 or 90 meters ... If you are gonna do it then just tell the medic you don't want a revive. Also the guys in the middle of an open field under heavy fire still shouting for a medic!

The only way to make this video better in my opinion is if the first part showing you die to enemy arty was a headshot. Always just totally loved that about arty. Not only where you killed by some person way back in the rear with the gear they somehow got you pinpoint headshot with a shell. Major, "ok" moment to me. Great video though, subbed!

When 50% of games have no commander and squad leaders leave units, it’s pretty tough to organize defensive and offensive units

In relation to number 2. I had a commander who wasent doing shit for the team and was just running around dismantling any friendly garrisons that we placed down. Thankfully he was kicked in the first 5 minutes but he still costed us the game

My top ten shit-list.... 1. SLs who don't build garrisons unless you beg them, like they need your permission or something. 2. SLs who don't update the OPs every 2 minutes, leaving 200-300 meters run between spawn and the current objective. 3. SLs who don't communicate with the commander. 4. SLs who Don't Have A Plan and leave it up to the individual squad members to improvise what they should be doing. 5. SLs who build garrisons over the line in the red areas, or near the enemy engagement. 6. Squads who won't defend 7. Squads who think defending means holding the circle and not chasing down the enemy spawn points. 8. Squads who don't coordinate their defense, i.e. with two squads both pushing 100m East and leaving the West defenseless (bye bye back line) 9. Recon units who you have to beg to move to the enemy back line and kill their artillery, who then say "it will take some time" like it's some unexpected, original tactic. 10. Commanders who don't engage with the RTS, and obsess over the FPS, spending more time fighting than looking a the map. - 70% of the commander's time should be spent thinking about the live chessboard and planning and communicating strategy.

These are all spot on! Only one i can think of you missed is negative commanders. Doesn't matter if you ask for a supply drop for garrisons or a tank on the only 3 man tank squad they always have an attitude 😂

I didn’t know you made vlogs, I recognize your name and voice from in game mcbluffin, you might remember me (crusty balls) we were fighting recon while trying to arty. Anyway nice video 👍 new sub

Lvl 36 tried commander after carefully watching how commanders played as squad lead. Won 3 games straight without loosing one obj. Fourth time we were getting pushed back thought I would get my first loss as commander, game froze and I never found out.

Haha I’m gna be a blueberry next week but been watching a few vids to help me out

The amount of times iv been in a field by my self and I my screen goes black and says you where killed by a friendly then I realise it was artillery

When i play as a medic, my gun is barely in my hands unless it is absolutely needed . Stay alive, soldier. I've been playing this game for about a year now and never tried officer's roll engineer or support, but I would love to learn all positions

funny thing that happened to me. When i first started, I noticed the SL issue and just went took the role. Immediately told the squad that i´m new, asked the lvl 200+ for advice and to also chip in. And I had a blast doing it but when I got good at the game ( I got 250h ) But at around lvl 100, I sort of noticed that my SL skills was no improving. As its just as important to see bigger picture with the whole team and especially people handling skill, as it is tactical know how like take or hold your part of the map. I fell back and played other roles and then became the rugged veteran that could help new SLs haha

I was playing as commander the other day and I had a whole squad of people using my arty just draining my munitions. All 3 guns firing the whole match. After asking them to stop firing multiple times I had to send a squad leader to TK them off our arty so we could have some munitions. I was glad when the enemy recon team came and started killing them as well lol

I don't mind the comedians, but taking the officer role without a mic, or knowing how it works is a sin I rarely forgive

I've literally never wanted to be squad lead but usually need to jump in because no one else will as a level 37... Thankfully I know sort of what I'm doing but it gives me a lot of respect for good squad leaders

I was playing as a squad leader last night and I had NO CLUE I had a watch or what it was even for. At least 6 players were shooting at the ground next to a supply crate I’m guessing they wanted a garrison placed. I just walked around the crate aimlessly then continued on running (they all gunned me down deservingly).

When enemy's tank decides to camp the arty spawn the entire game cause it's so open he just kills everything that try to knock him out

this a nice top ten list but for sure you could make a top 15 :D I personal hate it if know one open a squad as a leader. Then you make one.. but for sure you got one guy who like to tell you what to do.. So my answer to this players every time the same.. Looks like you a great Squad Lead open your own squad and let me do my job here ;)

The officer who locks the squad and doesn't let anybody in the squad

Being a sniper, finding a nice little position, then some MG or rifleman blueberry decides he'll plop himself beside you and totally give your position away. Arh. Bless em.

Last night when I tried playing as commander, people kept on team killing me to the point to where either I'd quit the match or step down. They mostly did that because they wanted to play commander. And the funny thing is that the ones that kept team killing me kept asking for a supply truck, and the ones asking were the blue berries, not the squad leaders so I couldn't hear them. Ironically enough the blue berry was the previous commander. Like if you want something, become a squad leader so I can know what you want, I can't read minds and plus most if not all of the resources take minutes to be available. Fortunately the next match I played, the people were really supportive of me being a commander. TLDR, don't let the toxic minority ruin your experience, this community is a wholesome community.

recently ive had it where when im medic ill run across the entire map just to have the guy give up when im 10 meters away :)

I'm the type of medic who runs across the whole Battlefield so the soldier can just give up 10 meters before I arrive🙂

Lol thank you for making me glad I'm not rushing to play commander

Most people don't even communicate or use discord. But when the whole squad communicates. It's amazing.

One guy I encountered used a whole tank as his personal taxi to the front lines, at which point he got out and started doing infantry stuff. My cousin got on the turret, gave him a warning, and then when the guy had no response, he blew the guy to smithereens for desertion lmao.

I was given a verbal crash course in arty while playing with our clan. I was lvl 75 the first time I even tried arty. They just told me to aim at the markers and figure out the elevation for the range. I quickly figured out what elevation is needed and in half an hour of artying I got 40 kills and 2 tks. I even managed to save my clanmate's Panther from being blown up by an AT-gun.

As someone who recently started to play this game, I see two reasons why low level players often become squad leaders: 1 - They don't know how the squad system works, so the most intuitive way to start playing is to click the button to create the squad, since the button to deploy is right next to it and unclickable (so it becomes logical that doing the first thing activates the other). 2 - For some reason, most people LOCK their squads. As a new player, I want to play as basic infantry and follow more experienced players to learn how to get more tactical value in this game. But instead I'm always staring at the screen for 3-4 minutes every time I join a match, looking for an OPEN squad and most of the time none become available. Then I become a squad leader for the sole reason that I want to play (how dare I, right?), and soon enough I have someone screaming at my ear that my smoke grenades are bad, even though I'm doing my best to throw them strategically on a map that I'm playing for the very first time. EDIT: I'm seeing in the comments a lot more complaints of how people abuse the squad system to do stuff that is not how the devs intended it to be. Don't you think the devs could rework the squad system to something that realistically falls closer to what the system is intended to?

Just started playing and had some great infantry to help guide me as an officer. I learned a lot and am grateful for what they taught me.

Yep, always somebody sings in the back of the transport. I went SL once because I stepped up to the plate and I got PTSD. I had trouble dropping OPs but read later it is all dependent on location from friendly lines, garrisons and other OPs. I play Support a lot and communicate with the SL a lot to let him know I have supplies and ammo.

You should play commander more. Its fun I have played the role like 5 times (haven’t played the game since march though) have done well everytime after the first. Great to get compliments from SLs after a good game of commander

Forgot the oblivious tank crews that don’t listen when 5 people are screaming that there is a enemy tank next to them

I had an AT guy shoot an over-full transport truck because he got salty that he fell off of the roof, fortunately the server had measures against that and the guy got instakicked lmao

I like those attacking locked sectors!

Everyone who plays SL and Medic... I love you... remember that

I’ve only just started learning to use artillery properly and it’s the most fun I’ve had in a while if you don’t end up team killing. Blasting a squad of 5 enemies with one shell is so much fun

I love playing medic when i just need to chill for a round. It lets you lose focus of the objective and just run around helping others. I usually pick SL in public games and AT/assault in comps.

As a Medic, I personally play because I get to decide who lives and who dies… And I always decide to do all I can to revive my teammates, so they can make sure the enemy dies.

DUDE! i love you said "you know your place" its so weird everyone wants to be the top dog just cause. Its like dude we are all gears in a engine you might not be a piston but it doesnt mean you arent important. Even if the head gasket blows the engine will die.

I as a medic tend to try to play in my words superman sprinting around picking everyone up whilst simultaneously becoming a bullet sponge but as long as my boys a healed i feel like om doing a great job

I played medic for a whole game and it was satisfying reviving teammates and doing well at it. I’m new to the game and am trying to play and learn different roles than just being a rifleman and killing people. I don’t understand why people choose to be medic and not do their job

So true man !! Same thinks I dislike as well, bad commander is the worst of all.

I made the mistake of becoming a squad leader my very first run at the game the other day. It was luckily a short skirmish. The guys were pretty chill though, and told me what to do.

I hate when people punish you for an accidental team kill near the end of the match and your team is losing. It literally slows down the teams progression, the chance to turn the game around.

Just won my first game as a commander... it was stressful but we did it

Nailed it again, fortunately I haven't run into No 10, but can confirm the Rest

THIS is gold 👌

Cool, I found my nickname (PanzerHans) xD

Players that get in your half track that you strategically placed and drive them into the strong point because they didn't wanna run 100+ meters

My first match, i only ended up team killing 2 by accident. One ran infront of my car and the other ran in my shots. Im proud its a low number for my first match

As a noob, it’s a steep learning curve, give me some slack🤣, wouldn’t dream of playing commander…

This was actually hilarious.

I love playing Lone Wolf with the trench gun. Just roam around the Map haveing fun and flanking behind enemy Lines

The engineer that ditches the supply truck in the middle of the map after getting his nodes down

Main problem playing as squad leader - asking my squad to form up on me, issuing objectives and no one following them. Nothing more infuriating than watching your entire squad split across the map. You’re asking for organisation from typical gamers. It’s not the military. Shit is likely to go sour fast
