Use your fucking gadgets/drones.
Information is king.
Play target drill to learn maps and basic callouts.
Map control and power positions are how you win rounds.
Crosshair placement is more important than raw aim.
USE YOUR FUCKING DRONES/CAMS BECAUSE INFORMATION IS KING

Learn the map. Make important use of your crosshair placement.
Play operators based on their roles rather than looks.

Do not, EVER, waste drones.

Don't sprint a lot. Siege has slow aim-down-sight speed compared to many FPS.
Echoing other anons: use drones, learn maps, communicate.
General formula for comms is [Operator] [Action] [Location].
>"Blitz breaching Main Lobby"
>"Kapkan crouched in Garage on 3 Ping"
>"Warden flanking metal stairs! Warden metal stair flank!" (Can repeat a comm if urgent)
Try not to spam yell at people: "This guy is here! I got shot over there!" Location names are given by the HUD compass, but there are lots of specific call-outs (usually a key object, color, or material, even Pro player names) which will be foreign to you as a noob, but it's part of the learning curve.
A lot to comms, but as newer player, even having basics is great.
Goes without saying, if you can get friends into it, it can be way more fun than queuing with randoms.

Some gun basics:
Zero concept of velocity so guns function more like lasers (besides the recoil). If you aim a pistol center, it can hit true across the map. No leading or compensation required (been playing BF6 so this sticks out as different in Siege lol).
1 hit headshots.
Bullet penetration and caliber-based destructible walls and floors.
Flash Hider and Vertical Grip are universal attachments on most guns with a few exceptions. Sights and laser sight are more preference, there's a gun range and practice modes to dial in instead of live matches.

It's easier now more than ever to not get spawnpeeked in Siege since defender acog removal.
If for any reason you allow yourself to get spawnpeeked, you are not as good at the game as you think you are.

DMR's like Aruni and Tubarao still have acog and they're arguably better weapons for spawn-peeks.'
Also Alibi, Azami, Goyo, Maestro and Kaid all have slug shotguns with acogs.

I don't care.
If we're in ranked and I see you die at any time from a spawnpeek, I am going to assume you are either a peak gold or spent all your time during the drone phase on your phone not paying attention.
In either case you are shit desu

agreed, but there's no way for new players to know how avoidable they are, or that some routes are just so much worse than others.
I think they're still one of the roughest parts of the new-player experience, and people keep doing them as long as they keep working (until ~high emerald)

I need some serious advice on this. Anyone who is Plat and above, please tell me what you think:

Let's say you're in a sweaty, "high-ranked" lobby and you're the last man standing in a 1v1, 1v2, or 1v3 scenario- how exactly should you consciously conduct your movement? Let's say the enemy is vaguely aware of where you are, and are holding an angle at your general position. They are already aiming down their sights waiting for you. Time is not on your side.
Should you:

A.) Approach the doorway with a very basic strafe-peek? (You know, alternate between the A and D keys while you try and get a glimpse inside the room?)
B.) Approach the doorway with a shaiiko peek?
C.) Approach the doorway with a slightly more complex hashom peek?

I know that in all cases you're likely to die, but which method would result in you receiving the LEAST damage and not get immediately headshot when entering the doorway, and would also overall be the least time-consuming?
Anonymous No.2030915 [Report] >>2030918

Your intent with any peaking / baiting at the angle is to draw out fire so you can calculate their position from the tracers or force a reload from them at which point you can move in / reposition.
Beyond that, gadgets to cause distraction or take a longer rotation. Any time you're man disadvantage and
>enemy is vaguely aware of where you are
applies, you must play aggressively with more movement (not careless, but necessary). Getting collapsed onto in a corner = certain death. Being mobile and taking the engagements one at a time is the better percentage to clutch.

Replying to myself, obviously different scenarios = play it different. Maybe you're Mute shotgun and you have the close door angle on multiple who need to flood in, then staying put and letting them move into you may be wiser ofc. Different ops, scenarios, sites, etc.

Playing super aggressively and moving to an angle that most favors your loadout is almost always the play

bruh even f2p dual front shitpile i couldn't find a match (just wanted some extra points from challenge). hey ubi why the FUCK did you waste money and time on that?
as dumb as it is, a warzone-mode clone probably would have done better and garnered more hype than dual front.

I hit champ without ever learning how to shaiko peek or hashom peek.
Do them if you enjoy practicing them, but you absolutely do not need them.

The bigger their number advantage, the more aggressive you want to be (you may even want to full swing the first guy right away if its really bad)
You want to force a series of one-on-one before they can group up and figure out what they all need to be holding

If defuser has not been planted and its a 1v4 or 1v5, sit tight and bait the first 2 or 3 frags. This is sadly extremely effective even in champ lobbies

I want to like dual front, but the map is massive and feels soulless and runs like shit on my laptop which generally isn't even that shit even though its aging. You never really get the experience of a larger fight because in practice it plays like two seperate 3v3s or 2v4s and when it then runs like shit with jaggy framerates that makes it ten times more difficult to win a fight, the 30 minute or whatever match time just becomes a long arduous chore of eating shit for 30 minutes where half the time is spend just navigating the map rather than fighting the enemy team.

Shield Guard
Nothing smart was said except for that they're currently "developing a new anti-cheat method"

Dual Front
Dual front lets developers do some experimentation outside of Core siege. They are planning to do big updates for it in Y11 (bigger than neutral zone task)

Esports
Nothing smart was said about this either. Live events are cool I guess.

Operators
Devs still want to reach 100 operators goal. Though it is getting harder and harder to come up with new unique ideas.
Interesting fact - some operators mechanics were thought of after looking at current gameplay meta or ingame lore

Remasters
Remasters are thought as a way to keep old operators relevant and loved by players.
Karpazis added that some old operator features may be added back during anniversary event in Y10S4

Realism
Dev team working hard when deciding to spend their resources for each season into 1 surreal or 1 tactical 3D skin.
What I meant is that they hearing different demands from players and try to satisfy them all given limited resources.

Lore
Current narrative direction is praised by community and devs like to see that. More lore based content (incl. events) will come.

Thailand and Aruni
Corporate speech on how important PLACE_NAME is for entire community.
Corporate speech on how PLACE_NAME local community size lead to designing an operator who was born there in the lore

The next 10 years
While they keep getting funds and resources to continue developing they will, well, continue developing.
