Characteristics of a Good Squad Leader
Good Communication Skills - You MUST be able to communicate efficiently with your squad
Seasoned Veteran - You MUST know your map and be a rather decent player
Being Aware of all things that are happening - You MUST be able to use logic to deduce what may be happening next on the battlefield.
Step 1: Naming your squad
If you are playing in a public server and don't have friends or a clan already laid out, naming your squad is very important. Some of the best names that should encourage team play are as follows.
Blackhawk: often brings in team players.
Teamwork: This is one of the more popular because it says it right there.
Mics Only: This is my personal favorite because it encourages people with mics to join your squad. In the next step I will show you that communication is a key part of having a successful squad.
Aviators: Having an "Aviators" squad can be VERY useful in BF2. On most maps there is usually no more than 4 or 5 people in the air. If you establish a squad for those players, it can encourage communication between the aircraft and make domination of the skies inevitable.
Step 2: Establishing Communications with your Squad
I know that communication is stressed in many of our tutorials, however, because you gain such an advantage with the application of good communication skills I must stress it again. This is not a lie! Without communication, your squad will not function properly! Communication is so important that the majority of this tutorial will revolve around the proper communication techniques. The first thing I do when I create a squad in a public server is determine the communication abilities of the other players in my squad. First, I test my mic to make sure the other squad members can hear me. If I do not get a verbal response on VOIP I then ask people to respond with "Roger That" if they can hear me. Note: If your squad members do not have mics but can hear you, your responsibilities as a squad leader have just increased two fold. Now you are the one they will rely on for ALL communication.
Step 2a: Communication: What do I have to do?
You might now be thinking, well what do I have to say to these people? The answer is EVERYTHING! If you are playing in a public server you must assume that everyone in your squad is oblivious to what is going on. No offense to your fellow teammates, but if you don't assume this you will find that many of your squad members will be left in the dark. It is up to you to tell them where enemy fire is coming from, where you are going next, what flag just went neutral, where enemies will be coming from next, Who should do what, what kit players should select, and so on. In saying this I must stress that talking too much can totally piss off your squad members. I've been in numerous squads where the squad leader is barking orders at his teammates, telling them what to do but he doesn't even know what the heck is going on. Make sure when you decide to be a squad leader you know what you are getting yourself into. It is a HUGE responsibility.
Step 2b: Communicating with the Commander The communications abilities of a squad leader also include the ability to talk with the commander. This is your responsibility. Request Artillery, UAV, Supplies, and MORE! Often times you will be working to a flag with your squad behind the front lines. The Commander knows what you are doing is important and may give you a UAV, however if he does not, ask him to do a scan and let you know the current status of enemy positions.
Squad Leader: (Approaching Suburbs from the South) "Hey Commander, this is squad 4 could you do a scan and let us know how the Suburbs look?"
Commander: (Sitting in his cushy office) "Sure let me get a scan going."
Scan Initiated
Commander: "looks like you have a few guys coming up the hill west of your position, other than that you look clear. Here, I'll try to spot them out for you"
Commander: "Enemy Infantry Spotted!"
Commander: "Enemy Sniper Spotted!"
While this is an ideal situation, it does happen often. If the commander knows you are a competent squad leader using team tactics, he will most likely be more than willing to communicate with you. As we all know, the better your squad does on the battlefield, the better the commander score at the end of the round.
Step 3: Constant Awareness There are many things going on during a round in BF2. As a squad leader you must know what is going on not only near your current location, but also in the surrounding areas. For example, If a flag near you goes neutral you know that the enemy is there. Once that flag is captured, through logic you can determine the enemy's next move. The use of logic is key when being a squad leader. While I can't give you a lesson on using basic logic skills I can tell you the things you need to be aware of.
You should be able to...
Determine the most probable position that enemies will be moving next at all times.
Know what flag the enemy just neutralized, what flag your team just neutralized, where the enemies are, etc.
Decide the best place for your squad in order to best help your team.
Use your Judgment to decide where to go next.
Communicate enemy positions and your intentions to your squad.
Examples of Communications
Squad Leader: (Mashtuur) "We have a sniper on the water tower, 1337h4xor go take him out, Medic123 go with him and give him some support."
Squad Leader: (Karkand) "They just neutralized the Suburbs, we need to go there and make sure they don't cap it."
Squad Leader: (Sharqi @ TV station) "I'm going to wait down here on the cliff, you guys go in and try to take the flag."
Squad Leader: (Have a Tank with Damage) "Jimmy7349 re-spawn as Engi, our tank needs repairs"
Step 4: Kit Selection
There is no definite rule for kit selection techniques in BF2. It is nice to have a variety of kits while in a squad. However, different maps have different circumstances and thus require different kits. On predominately infantry based maps you may need more medics, whereas on a map like Gulf of Oman you may need more engineers or AT. One thing that does hold true is that if you have a good squad, the squad leader should select support. Think of yourself as a base where your squad members can fall back to in order to get supplies. You will often be away from your squad giving them support. In these situations, suppressing fire is very useful while your squad captures a flag. However, you do not want to make yourself the center of attention for the enemy so be careful and use your judgment in determining when you can engage the enemy safely.
In addition, there is also no rule for Kit selections because of the constantly changing status of the battlefield. As a squad leader it is your responsibility to inform the squad of changing conditions on the battlefield. In other words, if a tank is closing in on your position you must notify your squad that if anyone dies and cannot be revived, they must re-spawn as AT or Spec Ops.
There is a recurring theme above that I hope I have made clear. The most important aspect of being a good squad leader is to be able to communicate effectively and efficiently with your squad and commander. Your role as a squad leader is very important! You will find that the best squad leaders will often times NOT have the most points in their squad, will NOT have the most kills, will NOT have very many flag captures. On the other hand, often times their squad WILL be the best on the team and their team WILL win. If your team wins and you have the best squad, be proud because it was you that made the win possible!
當你決定創造小隊時你承擔一個非常重要角色。 你不是你是移動的產生物點僅的另一個球員,一個小基地,堡壘。 這意味著任何人在你的小隊可能產生在你的位置! 怎樣認為強有力是的工具! 然而,與這力量來巨大的責任。 你必須準備著是操作的腦子、眼睛、耳朵和嘴。 這不是為了說大家在你的小隊僅僅是咕嚕聲,然而它是非常重要的你是在事頂部。 我在那之下概述了4步將做你一位更好的小隊領導
一位好小隊領導的特徵
好表達能力-你一定能與你的小隊高效率地溝通
經驗豐富的退伍軍人-你必須知道你的地圖和是一個相當正派球員
知道發生的所有事-你一定能使用邏輯推論什麼可以發生其次在戰場。
第1步: 給出你的小隊
如果你充當一臺公開服務器,并且不安排朋友或氏族已經被計劃,命名你的小隊是非常重要的。 應該鼓勵隊戲劇的某些最佳的名字如下是。
Blackhawk : 經常增加隊員。
配合: 因為它說它正確在那邊,這是一个普遍。
仅Mics : 因為它鼓勵人與mics加入你的小隊,這是我的個人喜愛。 在下一個步驟我將表示你,通信是一個關鍵部分的有一個成功的小隊。
飛行員: 有" Aviators" 小隊可以是非常有用的在BF2。 在多數地圖通常有沒有比4個或5個人在天空中。 如果你建立一個小隊為那些球員,它能鼓勵航空器之間的通信和使控制權天空不可避免。
第2步: 建立與你的小隊的通信
我知道,然而,通信在許多被強調我們的講解,因為你勝過這樣與我必須再注重它好表達能力的應用。 這不是謊言! 沒有通信,你的小隊不會適當地起作用! 通信是很重要的多數本指南圍繞適當的通信技術。 當我在一臺公開服務器在我的小隊,創造一個小隊是確定其他球員的通信能力第一件事我。 首先,我測試我的mic確定其他小隊成員能聽見我。 如果我在VOIP沒得到口頭上答應我那麼要求人反應與" 羅傑That" 如果他們能聽見我。 注: 如果你的小隊成員沒有mics,而是能聽見你,你的責任當小隊領導增加了二摺疊。 現在你是他們為所有通信將依靠的那個。
步2a : 通信: 我必須做什麼?
你也許現在是認為,好什麼我必須對這些人說? 答復是一切! 如果你充當一臺公開服務器你必須假設,大家在你的小隊是忘卻的對怎么回事。 沒有進攻對你的隊友,但是,如果你不假設此你發現許多你的小隊成員在黑暗將被留下。 它是由告訴他們敵對火何處的你決定來自,其中你其次去,什麼旗子去中性,其中敵人來自其次,應該做什麼,什麼成套工具球員應該選擇,等等。 在說此我必須注重談話可能完全太多煩死你的小隊成員。 我是在許多小隊,小隊領導咆哮命令在他的隊友,告訴他們怎樣做,但是他甚而不知道怎么回事。 確定,當你決定是你知道的小隊領導什麼你進入你自己。 是一個巨大的責任。
步2b : 溝通與小隊領導的The司令員通信能力也包括能力與司令員談話。 這是你的責任。 請求火砲、UAV,供應和更多! 通常時期你工作對一麵旗子與你的小隊在前線之後。 司令員知道什麼你做着是重要的,并且願給你UAV,然而,如果他不,要求他做掃瞄并且告訴你敵對位置的當前狀態。
小隊領導: (接近的郊區從南部) " 嘿這司令員,是小隊4可能你做掃瞄并且告訴我們郊區怎麼看?"
司令員: (坐在他輕鬆的辦公室) " 肯定讓我得到掃瞄going."
被創始的掃瞄
司令員: " 看上去像你有幾個人過來小山在你的位置西邊,除你看起來確切的那之外。 這裡,我將設法為you"察覺他們;
司令員: " 被察覺的敵對步兵! "
司令員: " 敵對狙擊手被察覺! "
當這是一個理想的情況時,它經常發生。 如果司令員知道使用隊戰術,你更比願是一位能幹小隊領導,他很可能將是與你溝通。 眾所周知,越好你的小隊在戰場,越好做司令員比分在圓的末端。
第3步: 在一個圓期間的在BF2,那裡恆定的了悟是許多事繼續。
