Squad play
1. In Playerunknown’s Battlegrounds, there are three modes to choose from – Solo, Duo and Squad. In the first one, you play alone, in the second one with one other player, and in the last one, with up to 3 other players. In each mode, you play differently and there are different challenges. One of the updates to the game also provides two other modes – Solo FPP and Duo FPP. They are identical with the “regular” modes – the only difference is that you have to play in the First Person Perspective.
2. Playing as a squad allows you to defend all sides. Normally, you are unable to monitor everything that is going on around, but playing with one another player, and especially in a squad of 4, this will be much easier, on condition that communication does not fail you.
3. While playing Duo or Squad, you have to communicate with other players at all times. Inform them of the enemy you have spotted, about a supply drop, an abandoned car or a building that is worth checking. You require a microphone for that, but this is not a problem – any gaming headphones are fitted with one.
4. While informing your squad where the enemy is, use your compass – there is one at the top of the screen. Instead of saying that the enemy is in front of you, communicate the direction – W, WE or N, which gets everybody on the same page.
5. It is a good idea to play with friends and specify the tactic at the very beginning – some players prefer calm, well thought off game, whereas others prefer to get into action and exchange fire with enemies. Ascertaining an uniform plan is the key to victory – your squad does not stand a chance, if everybody is doing whatever they like.
6. Match voice communications with your tactic. In options, in Sound tab there is an option to adjust Voice Channel – this will allow you to specify if you want all enemies around to hear you speak, or whether you want only your squad to hear you, or nobody. While playing as a squad, it is better to check the Only Squad option – otherwise, the enemy will be able to locate, while you are near and talking. .
7. In multiplayer modes, enemies become stunned, if they take enough damage. After that, you should finish them off, by shooting at them several times. However, of all the enemies in a single squad are stunned, the entire squad will be killed automatically. Enemies can also carry their companions, when they are stunned – leave no enemies unattended.
8. You can take advantage of a stunned enemy to set a trap. Stun an enemy (preferably in an open area), but do not finish him off. Wait a moment for his squad mates to appear and to feel safe. When they decide to bring him round, all you will have to do is kill them all off.
9. Remember to keep an eye on your companions’ health. Once any of them falls, you can help him, on condition that the enemy has not finished him off. However, do not run headlong to help him, because you may be killed by the enemies who have just shot your squad mate.
10. Death in squad mode is not ultimate. You can still spectate at the fights and even inform the rest of possible threats – especially if you use an external messaging service). It is a good idea to use that, because you can learn many interesting things this way.
11. The important thing is to stick to together. It’s not necessary to keep within several meters of each other, or even travel on one vehicle, however it is a bad idea to increase the distance to several tens of meters. While traveling in a tight squad, you are going to eliminate enemies easier and support your companions, if something goes wrong.
12. Share your gear with your squad mates. There is no point in hoarding all the medkits or boosts, or carry several weapons you don’t use, when the rest of them are not fully equipped. Effectiveness of the squad depends on how well each member is equipped.
