Hi Atas,
Sorry for the bad onboarding experience, I have worked on it since.
You can simply stay close to cover to be protected and you can simply stay there and shoot from behind cover, still receiving partial protection. Moving it of cover is only useful when you want to change position or when you get flanked.
The game rewards using cover efficiently and planning your next moves. But I fully understand that I need to communicate this better in the onboarding process.
I have since seeing your stream already reworked the early levels to make them more straightforward for a new user.
So I now are more confident that a new player will have a better experience (and all players who have feedback said, once you understand the pacing and mechanics of the game, it's excellent and exciting).
Thanks again for the stream, it taught me a lot about user experience.
