Cool story bro warning: I saved up over 50k for the new operators. Then they had to have a sale on for some shiny skins which I had to buy of course. Now I have to grind all the way up to 50k+ again, and I don't even mind because the game is so much bloody fun.
TL;DR buy this game.

I thought this game was crap until I bought it. Now I can't stop playing it.

I'm still on the training missions. But loving it! Real sense of satisfaction when you beat them! No idea what multiplayer is like!!! Any other newbies - can we share usernames?

I wasn't sure if you had to complete all the single player things first?
Plus I'm scared of being killed straight away!
Also, which operator should I unlock first? Guess need to play them through to decide... decisions decisions!!
Thanks for the motivation though!

Brilliant game but it's broken in terms of bugs; crashing; being unable to connect to your friends; randomly disconnecting; high ping on the official servers (lowest tend to be 80ms, highest 150ms). My friend's PC also randomly shuts down on it; likely overheating but it's only in this game (not battlefield or Dying Light or Fallout 4 or Dark Souls 3 etc) so you have been warned: it's amazing but poorly made :smiley:

Never really had any issues. Sometimes matchmaking can take longer than expected but its not broken or anything, takes about 1-2 mins on average.
Great game though, recommend it to anyone and according to reports the community is bigger now than when it was released and ubisoft have said this game will go for years with new content etc.

got the gold edition for £11 few weeks back, shame it hasn't got a single player campaign but only some 11 training levels. Haven't played it ever since. Should have gone for the standard edition...

will play it again after lunch. still tempted to go for single player first - think i'm on mission 8 - the electronic booby traps
if i go multiplayer, i guess i need to decide which operator i choose? it doesn't seem to tell me about them just SAS has these icons and FBI has these. i guess you need to google them but i would have thought it would have told me on screen?

Oh I see it does tell you about their attributed if you click SAS. I was worried once I clicked SAS I would be stuck with it forever! This game is so intense. Nearly completed "no intel" mission and some shot me while I was using my drone. I keep having to have a rest from it as my heart racing too fast! this is just single player!¬!

It'll be myocardial infarctions all the way in MP then :smiley:, it can get very tense (especially when it comes down to 1 v 1).
I'd suggest unlocking someone like Thermite first, he's one of the most vital operators. Then maybe Jager or Pulse on defence.
It might have a bit of a steep learning curve (depending on your familiarity with FPS games), but once you start to learn the maps and which operator is best for which situation, it'll be a blast.

You'll find that if your in the lower (starting) tier that not a lot of people use their mics but if you get good and get up to the higher tiers where all the better players are alot more use mics. This is on ranked.
Have a look on youtube for good hiding/ganking spots where they will never expect you to come from. There's loads. Also a good defence operator for a beginner is rook as he'll give you and the team extra armour and you won't need to worry about anything else but defending then while you get used to it.

aha. makes sense. if it is match making (I am rank 4 and playing with people rank 30 to 100 normally) then yeah the lower ranked won't be using mics as they wont be as good!
i was with one good player who used his mic last night so added him as a friend. hopefully you build it up that way. great game. i am still useless but used blitz on attack and was good at triggering defuser on bomb missions and winning
