Looking at some of the people I play with, I think this advice is well needed.

If you watch the video. One of the guy gets up the stairs and passes him once. The vet misses it. And he kills him on the second pass, he’s just very lucky.

This game is very situational. He also doesn’t stay in the same spot, so there is no chance for people on the second attempt to kill him to anticipate his spot.

This is all stuff people already do in battlefield. He also isn’t going up engineers. No one rpged his cover, which is something I would totally do.

A well placed 320 or impact would have ruined his day.

Don’t forget other top notch advice in the video that can only come from the military like:

- Utilize cover

- Don’t engage in a 1v5 firefight

- Don’t engage in a firefight when you have no ammo

Or snipers. I usually play in Hardcore mode, you cant stay in one spot for more than 3 seconds or else some sniper from jesus knows where will end you.

99% of this shit is common sense. I don’t understand how hearing this average advice from an “army vet” makes it more valuable.
