10 Humanity-Restoring Experiences Only Gamers Will Understand

3. When Your Squad Works In Perfect Harmony In Battlefield

Battlefield's online is mind-numbing when nobody's on your wavelength. Teamwork is the name of the game, and those who can't learn to play along won't make it very far. Players can repeatedly launch their own assaults and die in vain, or they can unite and ease past the opposition at every hurdle. A good squad is the epitome of the Battlefield ethos. The effectiveness of this simple gameplay mechanic is such that one squad alone can have an enormous impact on the way each match unfolds. When you're lucky enough to be put into a squad with a particularly collaborative bunch, the ensuing match is often one to be remembered. With just four players you can form a javelin squad and reign artillery down upon anyone tenacious enough to get into a vehicle, you can jump on board a transport helicopter and turn it into a flying fortress or you can stage a daring raid on the enemy base by clambering into a jeep a speeding through the front lines. It's truly one of the most beautiful experiences known to man.
