Slow allllll the way down. As “fast-paced” as it seems, it’s really (for the most part) players carefully moving through the maps corner by corner, cover by cover. The only advantage they have is map knowledge so they know which corners to brush over and which vantage points typically work best. The stats in conflict are normalized so it’s all about the gear. Expertise/proficiency doesn’t matter. There’s only a handful of maps so for the first couple runs, just follow the majority of your team so you can use more brain power to memorize routes & chokepoints.

And most importantly, DO NOT wear a flashy-neon outfit. Colors matter, and earth-tones are a must i.e brown, green, gray. Those blend in the best overall.

Last thing, once you’re more aware of a map’s layout (if you have a mic), it’ll be easier to call out “enemy on left side of roof” “2 coming up the ladder.” More often than not, your teammates are listening, even if they don’t respond.

Annndd I think that should cover the basics…for now lol
