Make some fast friends who are willing to help ya learn. It is not COD and doesn’t play like COD. Don’t know what type of games ya play, but don’t get frustrated to the point of quitting. You may go 2 kills and 20 deaths, but it gets easier once you learn the maps. Watch some youtube vids to help ya out.

That’s what I am going through now. Just started playing online last week, and I die a ton, very frustrating at first. But learning as I go. I have finally found a gear class that I enjoy using which helps too.
