You crack me up Marsman: "These are the most common questions, but I'm not telling you the answers! Bah hahahaha!!"

Melfius,

If you're talking to the admins, perhaps someone is team killing you (TKing), then use "K" so that every player can see.

But, if you're talking about game tactics, for example: "I'm at E6 but I have 1% health," then use "L"; you don't want the enemy to know what you're doing, right?

When you accidentally TK someone (TK = team kill), then you should type "Sorry" or "Sorry TK", in the team chat.

If someone accidentally TK's you (and they don't usually TK) then you can hit this key "~" (that's not an emoji, it's the "tilde" key). 
The ~ key opens the console.  In the console you can type "ftk" (forgive team kill), this means there is no time or kick penalty for that player.

On the other hand, if you are TK'ed by someone, and you think it was deliberate, or careless, then you might want to type "ptk" (punish team kill).  PTK gives that player a time penalty; it will take longer for them to spawn.

Also, "N" changes the magnification of your map.  This is useful to see where your team mates are, and whether you should throw a grenade, or drop a bomb.

Re: Question about online

I did tell him to look at the in game options
He can see all the options available and choose to customize the buttons to suit.
the idea of not giving the answers was to make him search for these options
How do I open parachute = 9 (hit a lot 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9 9)  remember this one

True, true.  Not having a go at you: just thought it was funny.

Re: Question about online

As you get more proficient in game:

on login menu
Customize tab
set your minimap transparency to about 78% and then while ingame make the minimap cover the screen....so you can see all the unmanned vehicles, aa guns etc...and still see the map.  you will have to play with different percentages to find one that you like...or dont like..

that same Customize tab has settings for Crosshair Color...which is handy...and tool tips (on or off)..so that doesnt show up ingame along the top of the map...unless you turn it back in game...(f8 on  f8 off)

welcome in

ee eee
