Depends on the game and objective, sometimes rush really is the answer and snipers camping at the back are useless.

Is the objective to kill everyone or to capture territory is probably the simplest difference. War thunder you win by killing everyone most of the time, so rushing off and dying is useless.

Meanwhile Enlisted (usually) only attackers have limited respawns and need to push back the defenders. So rushing and overwhelming the defenders is typically a good idea. Of course even then you do want to try and push in a way that isn't just going to get yourself killed and achieving nothing for it, rushing across open ground on your own towards an MG for example.

    This looks like Apex Legends. Rushing is not a good idea.

    How can you tell that? Googled apex legends and it doesn't look like it, looks like pretty much any FPS game.

    The guy looks like he's holding a Hemlok. 3 man squad. The game has revivals and blue shield while downed. Retarded team mates who charge in.

    I guess that could fit other FPS games, I don't know enough about other games. I do know Apex and it looked like that to me. 🤷‍♂️

    Don't mind me. I am the high level player playing solo. I can often be found in a vehicle running you over. I do honk the horn just before I hit you because it's funny. Beep, beep.

    I also have all chat features turned off and friend requests blocked. I am listening to an audiobook while relaxing and your whining ruins the mood.

    I usually keep the team spawn points up, both vehicle and built ones.

    Gotta capture that bunker, I don't have enough ammo to kill the entire enemy team alone but if I get my team to spawn here and push with me then between us we can usually breach their defences.

    Positioning matters, always. Both rush and defense can still be enhanced by positioning. A flank is not just a cheap cut of beef, and it never hurts to put your enemy in a crossfire kill box vs an even open field, whatever the objective.

    If Sun-Tzu's words on the subject are too classical for some, Obi-Wan Kenobi is right there; you want the high ground.
