@Rhymst Hey man! I smile when I read your intro post because it reminds me of when I myself started playing Battlefield. That was with BF4 back when it was released. Like you I also found the big battles incredible! I started with Team Deathmatch and Domination (two game modes), then moved on to Conquest. I remember the first time I logged on to a Conquest server. It was the BF4 map with the “big disc”; there was a big enemy tank driving around in the area and I could hear an enemy helicopter above. I was in the game for something like 30 seconds, then I quit because it was too overwhelming! 😃😃😃
But you get used to it little by little.
For practice, hmm...not sure. Team Deathmatch and Domination have a higher tempo / are more intense constantly than Conquest, so I don’t know if that’s recommendable compared to just jumping into a Conquest server.
