Very fun, but can be a bit frustrating for new players due to the lack of a tutorial. Some tips:

Don't play on the official, top of the list servers if you can help it. Maybe I'm biased, but the people on those servers don't seem to be as friendly as others.

Try to avoid servers with heavy plugins (aka mods). Many servers have QoL plugins that, for example, allow you to open doors without having to take out your keycard, or kick afk players after a certain amount of time. Those are perfectly fine. While you're learning the game though, try to avoid servers with large plugins like airdrops, 035, Serpent's Hand, Tranq guns, etc.

When you spawn in, read the text. Also, press F1 (ESPECIALLY AS SCP) as it lists all your controls, objectives, and abilities
