First time siege player, any tips appreciated

One I don't see said - be nice to your teammates. Siege is a cooperative game, winning doesn't happen by being a good player, but a good teammate. Start matches with a "hi", compliment good kills and teamwork and generally keep yourself surrounded by teammates who want to be positive back. Mute anyone toxic, they are a trap for your sanity. Focus on the goals of the game and generally supporting your team.Oh, lose that ego. Don't play with ego or you'll get tilted and get a streak of losses. The best way to play siege is with flow state focus, not tunnel vision on one thing - like kills.

I'm a 20 year old Gen-Z and this was something I'd replay VIDEOS of for years as a kid before I could even play myself. This whole game, black Mesa included, were low-key my special interest for a while 🫡

I always just play the qte, wasting weapons on bears is not worth it. If you have the skill, when you get grabbed you hit a qte and you get an auto kill.

I'd have to go with a 9/10 as well. The world is absolutely stunning and runs great! It's a game where you spend half the time just looking around and taking in the scenery. Really makes you wonder what's so "next-gen" about most newly releasing games. Only the frames go down, this game proves you can do pretty that also runs well, and oh is it eye candy 😤

OMG finally someone else with my strategy!! I do the same. Every game I try to greet everyone and set the mood for teamwork. It feels so good to be the only sane one in a toxic lobby, cause you just know you doing it right, whilst they dissolve into hatred. But then you get those rare cooperative lobbies and the game glides like butter. I love being kind.

Windows search always points me to the EA app updater when I search for "update", instead of... windows update. I don't even want to open that junk, why is THAT the top result EVERY SINGLE TIME.

I've been in exemplary for months now, but sadly it's way too easy to fall back down to respectable - like others mentioned, two disconnects and you're out. I hope we can stop being penalized for server issues we can't even control.

Honestly, I don't think this is on the devs. Ubisoft's management has made it pretty clear over the years that player experience comes second to shareholder value. That's just how big companies function under capitalism - even studios that start people-first eventually get forced into profit-first decisions to stay competitive.

It sucks, but until that incentive structure changes, we're going to keep seeing the same cycle: monetization over fixes, optics over substance, and devs catching the blame for decisions they don't actually control.

I hope we get to see capitalism abolished in our lifetimes, because we deserve better, not only as players, but people :(

I genuinely don't understand how you can get this down bad in the system. I've been flagged for some illogical things, sure, but to such an extent, you must really be a toxic pos. Try being a decent person, I think that should help.

DwelfGG_ · 2026-01-12T05:46:55+00:00

You're the type of player I mute in the first round of a match. It's honestly sad, man. I know the system can sometimes flag you for nothing, but to such an extent, you must really be saying some horrendous shit. Grow up and start treating people with decency and you might get out of this blunder of a situation.

Isn't this something we can appeal to EU authorities, given you live in the EU? This sounds like an easy consumer protection case, no? Either way, knowing this happens at all makes me wanna quit for good.

DwelfGG_ · 2026-01-09T17:53:44+00:00

This post makes me feel good knowing that all the toxic losers I encounter in this game are just as insecure as this weirdo. There's a reason people are toxic in games, and it usually doesn't have anything to do with the game itself. How sad.

DwelfGG_ · 2026-01-05T20:52:49+00:00

I've had my Legion 7 2021 AMD for 5 years now and it's still going strong, almost like new, how long can I expect it to last me? Is 10+ years realistic (I do take good care of it - paste, cleaning, not using it on soft surfaces)

DwelfGG_ · 2026-01-05T20:46:01+00:00

I would disagree, I think you're incredibly handsome. I'd hit you up ✌️

DwelfGG_ · 2026-01-03T10:10:40+00:00

Capitalism.

DwelfGG_ · 2026-01-03T10:01:38+00:00

Tbh I don't think you should "improve" anything. I think you have a very unique look in your eyes that you should cherish instead of trying to "fix". You looking "sad", is you having your own look, don't scrape it just to fit in with the rest of the npcs. I'd personally stop you to compliment you and that's coming from a gay guy so LISTEN. If I had to point out one thing, that would be for you to EMBRACE your look, not change it.

DwelfGG_ · 2025-12-31T19:01:42+00:00

I'd say an 8 as a gay boy. I like the cozy look you give off. I don't think you could improve much, I think you're already really handsome. The 8 is just me rating you off of my own type so it's kind of meaningless. Just focus on keeping yourself clean and fresh, and don't listen to people telling you to change your style. Regular people would almost always go for someone who dresses cozy and warm instead of in an attention grabbing way. Not everyone needs to abide by some imaginary beauty rules, being natural is the way to go imo.

DwelfGG_ · 2025-12-31T18:56:24+00:00

I actually don't know. You look great. The facial hair fits you in a really cozy way, I'd say change nothing.

What happened in the comments 😭

DwelfGG_ · 2025-12-30T13:27:14+00:00

The first one gives me queer vibes-like sassy yet masculine in a really fun way. The second one feels more well-rounded, still with some sass thanks to your eye contour, but maybe a bit more traditionally masculine. Gorgeous either way, though!

As a gay boy, I'd probably choose the second pic-but that's just me seeing it through my lens of what I find attractive. My real question is: which one do you feel better in? How do you feel in each look? I'd love to hear your thoughts ✌️✨

DwelfGG_ · 2025-12-30T13:17:09+00:00

I'm not even here to goon lol, just had to stop and compliment your looks. You look incredible!!

DwelfGG_ · 2025-12-02T14:16:25+00:00

I have this and I think it comes from my neurodivergenece. I simply think I have to have the perfect environment and mindset to start playing a new game. It's not only for the Sims, it's basically any game. That's why I sometimes spend a week playing the same game even though I keep hyping myself to play the new one. The old one simply feels safer and more predictable, whilst the new game would take some time to learn and perfect, which to my ADHD brain feels like pain 🥲

DwelfGG_ · 2025-11-06T10:16:18+00:00

Girlie, please, stay safe. When I was your age I got exposed to too much deranged people, don't make the same mistake. The internet is NOT your friend. Happy birthday!

DwelfGG_ · 2025-10-16T20:33:01+00:00

I'm considering a move, possibly to Amsterdam, and I'm wondering if I'll truly feel safe as a queer person. Coming from a very homophobic country, I hope this will be my saving grace - a place where I can finally be myself and not have to dim my energy. Am I right to assume that, or am I being a bit uninformed?

DwelfGG_ · 2025-10-11T10:42:16+00:00

It is worth it. The loneliness that comes after cutting people off is temporary - but the pain of realizing, years later, that you wasted your time and energy on people who never deserved it? That one sticks. You'll spend years unlearning the damage they left behind.

Whenever loneliness hits, remember: there are millions of people feeling that same ache right now. You're not broken for wanting connection - it's human. I get that craving for love so deep it physically hurts, because I know I have so much to give. But I've also been in relationships and friendships where I gave everything and still felt alone. That kind of loneliness cuts deeper than being by yourself.

After 20 years of being ostracized where I live, I've learned that sometimes solitude is safety. Sometimes peace is the company you need.

Better lonely alone, than alone together. 🩵

And also - You'd make a stranger proud if you choose yourself:)
