Bunny hopping, spraying fire wildly, massive health bars, and the whole LAV thing are all anathema to a true tactical experience This is not the thinking mans shooter some fanboys like to tout it as but a throwback to the arena shooters of old only less polished
First off, if thats all the tactics you know in this game I'm sorry... Here's some more for you. https://forums.dust514.com/default.aspx?g=posts&m=975478#post975478

Okay, here we go slow paced. Dust is not. I will give you that. It's fast paced. Needing to look GTFO of here. Really?! REALLY?! So you ever ran into a point guns blazing regardless of whats in there and relied on pure mechanics to win? If there's more than 2 people in there you're screwed, you may or may not come out on top but THINKING about it does help. Choosing your battles does help. Check every corner? I do this, ever come around a corner without looking and meet a heavy face to face. Good luck, or even a shotgun scout? Stick to cover? Yeah that helps too. Snipers LOOOOOOVE dummies who run across open fields. And now that I mentioned snipers you realize if you actually do LISTEN you can hear a snipers shot? So pretty much everything that you said you do in Rainbow Six to be 'better' than your opposition is stuff you can apply in this game too? As for one mistake costing you dearly. I guess you don't play in proto anything where one fitting may cost you 80k? Die twice in a pub and thats all the money your going to make.

See my previous post. Tactics Techinques and Procedures work to make you more successful. Until then don't speak about stuff you know nothing about. Just because this isn't your favored twitch shooters, doesn't mean tactics aren't involved. Good day to you, sir.
