Deploying

It is recommended to jump right into the action by joining a populated server in the server browser. Once you join the server, you have a choice to join a side (Allies or Axis). Then you are taken to the deploy screen, where you choose a role, and select a spawn location on the map. The spawn points are animated dots, which can be clicked once to select or even double clicked to spawn.

Get to the objective

Once you deploy to the battlefield you can bring up the overview with 'O' as the default key. The overview will show where you are and the active objectives you should go to attack/defend.

Learning who to shoot

Learning the enemy uniform comes with experience and you will need to play under a strict rules of engagement until you learn them. Friendly fire happens, but too much will result in a short experience for you.
