I’d say probably the most important part of any FPS is just learning the map and getting an idea of the flow. So probably just explore the maps and get a grip with what’s in them as a starting point.

Find the gun that works for you, BF tends to really be a feels over reals game imo. The statistically best guns may be that, but if you don’t like them, might be hard to use them. So might as well find something that you’re most comfortable with. 

And speaking of comfort, probably fine tune your settings but I think that’s a given.

Long story short I've been wanting to play an fps again and cod does not do it for me. I used to play bad company 2 religiously but really haven't played much BF since battlefield 3 and very little battlefield 4. What little tips can you provide for someone who is coming back to the series after so long
