I presume you've unlocked Youthful Lungs & Marathon Runner in the Skill Tree and run with your weapon stowed to improve the movement speed & reduce stamina drain?

Do the guys you play with feel the same or will they carry on without you, or will you all try Tarkov maybe?
Yeah, the diffeeent nades can turn so many fights, surprises me that more people dont use them
started playing this tonight and im terrible at it but slowly gettting there, level 5 and just got the 6 wires, most people have been kool cept for some guy that just started shooting at me, probably just for sport and giggles 
enjoying it so far, im only leveling up the stamina based skills at the moment think its mobility

So satisfying when going in solo and teaming up, and yet again another Rambo comes flying in all guns blazing not realising there’s 2 of us 
Then you get the added satisfaction as you’re running over laughing on proximity and they surrender

I would recommend you going in with a custom loadout where you just have to take a flute and seeing what happens and how long you can survive, you can recruit other players to help you get out pretty easily in my experience, they think its quite funny. It does make the pops more terrifying that they already are though.
Had some great runs last night, 2 night raids on Dam where it felt like we were murdering the whole lobby and getting out with a ton of loot. The second game was almost a complete disaster at the end, got to the lift only to be ambushed by a leaper & bombadier - 2 of us are knocked, somehow get the res and then we drag our over encumbered asses to the final extract with about 45s to go. \
As we close the doors we just hear this voice 'WAIT FOR ME, IM ALONE' as some random guy is sprinting past a rocketeer trying to make the extract - then 'nooooo' as he misses the doors closing.
First time I've ever extracted with over 100k worth of loot though!

Just be careful ... sometimes there is an item to pick up but it's not obvious because of bad placement. For example, there is a quest to collect some memoirs but you have to jump up on top of the table for the interact option to be available.
Yep that's one that I missed and also a journal on the same map for a different quest, got the 2nd journal so plodded all the way back to the first outpost and it wasn't there. Done it on so many quests.
Few resources to help manage your inventory a bit better in terms of what you can keep, recycle or sell. (I don't think it's infallible, but the pdf is a live document that's being updated) - Credit to pRoDeeD on Reddit.

Sounds like something I did last night haha
last night i got loads of loot in solos and then with a friend, then in my final game I took a decent loadout in and went in to blue gate as wanted some good loot. Got absolutely shafted by a rocketeer near the end and used up all my ammo, bandages and shield rechargers. Had 3 mins to get to the only extraction point left. Ran towards it, saw the half broken rocketeer that was gunning for me, so I ran around other side of the hill while my friend carried on, got round the hill only to be faced with a fresh rocketeer who took one swiftly deployed rocket and shoved it up my ***. I crawled to the extraction point, and was short by about 5 seconds before it closed up. PAIN IS REAL
Nah it was the one by generator hall that we got out from in the end. Water treatment is a genuine nightmare extract point!
Did you get out in the end?
From my understanding, the game won't match solos with squads.
if it's not then solo's must be squadding up in game - i've come across plenty of duo's and even trio's when i was out solo'ing
Oh they definitely are. I've had tons of people ask me to squad up. Unfortunately most of the time I'm out for a specific reason and don't wanna share my loot.
Also, as mentioned elsewhere in this thread, the day / time makes a massive difference in the type of games you have. Friday night is hilarious, loads of people drunk and just messing about. Saturday afternoon after kiddies footy? Hell no, don't even waste your time.
Apparently the game can match solos with squads, if there aren't enough servers free. One issue is that people are playing duos and they're treated as squads. There's a lot of people calling for duo servers.
At the moment I'm grinding towards the Security Breach perk. I bet they nerf that by the time I get it!

Security Breach and the contents of those containers is fine IMO. The actual problem is that other perks have little effect or are possibly bugged, which means you aren't giving up much worthwhile to take Security Breach. Fix the other perks and Security Breach becomes less attractive.
