      @@themklyfe9283 well first you need to either be a squad leader or a fire team leader to place any marks. If you are one of those you have to press Caps lock to bring up the command map. Then you can right click to place markers wherever you want. You can also use T to bring up the dial for marks. Being a fire team leader is a useful tool 100% of the time and they can easily be assigned back and forth between people that need to mark stuff.

    Great guide, appreciate the tips. Still struggling a bit after trying to get back into it. I think the 5 people constantly talking in both squad and local makes it too hard to determine whats going on, as I can't always look away to look at the person talking. Rage quit a few times but really want to enjoy this game, can tell the devs have put a lot of work into it.

      @@Christian-mt5jx No one said to get rid of the big map. Just make that mini map onto the screen. There’s no realism when it comes to map. The map in Squad is the least realistic thing in the game. You literally can see everyone and everything moving in real time. It’s Arcady. So really, there’s not much of a sane reason to keep making us open and close the map to see if we’re heading in the right direction. It’s just busy work that adds nothing into the game. Putting the map onto a little corner of the screen takes away nothing from the experience. Go look at America’s Army 2.8. That’s how it should be done.

      The outer gray is where no other radios can be placed which has a 300 meter radius. Meaning the next closest radio can be placed 301 meters away.

    the coordinates were a big thing in project reality too.For example ''H3, keypad 9, subkeypad 6'' you divide H3 the way your keypad on your keyboard is:
    789
    456
    123
    And you have your grid. It was a fun and hardcore way to pass location info. If you wanted to make an even more accurate mark, you further seperated keypad into subkeypad. So top left corner of the square would be H3 kp 7 sb7.
