Takes a wee while to get the gist of squad but throughly rewarding once you do. Competitive matches are completely different from pub play, well coordinated, good comms, well structured, well worth getting into. Pub matches are hit and miss for a good game and largely dependant on your squad lead and fire team leader doing their jobs well and providing clear direction. I play with Rusty In Places (RIP) and we have our own servers. You'll find RIP members leading some of the squads and mixing through the pub squads, can approach any of them for friendly advice / guidance. Just shout in squad comms that you're new and they'll help you out, giving you a better experience.
