Getting better, I think...

Something else that is sometimes missing and makes it more difficult is the lack of covering fire.Many times if I see a group of allies charging an objective I will drop down to try to cover their approach.Even if its just shooting into windows or known positions even if you don't get a hit it suppresses them.

The use of suppression fire is something we should see more people doing and SL`s coordinating it... Fire and movement with proper covering fire is the key....

Heh, I found my original post to a new player in RO:OST from years ago...still holds true I think.
Hang in there, RO can and will reward the patient soldier.
See you on the battlefield.

Any l33t CS, COD, BF run n' gun skillz won't do squat in this game. That stuff just gets you blown away and hurts your teams' reinforcements.

You will be rifled, MG'ed, SMG'ed, naded, vapourized, run over, and bayoneted many, many times ...
You will smash at least one keyboard in frustration (FPS Doug)...
You will learn profanity in at least two extra languages...
You will hate the merciless veteran players who have known the game from it's UT2K4 mod days...
You will feel the satisfaction of your first RO kill (If you're not a broken emotional wreck by this time)...
You will be hooked...
