First time playing operation archer I spawn at an FB get a humvee and think, "hmmmm how am I sposed to get out of here?" So hole in wall was made and drove through...

All I remember afterwards is thinking "hmmmm Steerings gone really light here, Wonder why?... OH HOLY SH!@!!!!"

Excellent LOLOLOLOL

Op archer is so underplayed, T&T should have it on more.

Problem is how buggy it is. As soon as it hit 50 players the map crashed, twice in a row (or was it 3 times?)

REALLY beautiful and well put together map (kudos to the maker), but just too many destructibles. Love the water pump too :D You can see a lot of thought and effort went into every corner of the map, even areas unlikely to see much traffic.

The pic inside the hummer over Cain's shoulder is my fav out of all those, with the 'not far at all...' a close second, but mainly for its place in the montage :D

I was there yesterday, first time playing Op Archer and some random guy picks me up in the Humvee then tells em to bail out in the middle of that city, I go hide in a house then realize there is no friendlies around and there's an Insurgent RP so close I could hear it's radio buzz
Got 2 kills, shot and started bleeding, got 3 more, died, then server crashed :(

tbh, I somehow think it's too easy for US to win the map, while I was there our team took out like 3 caches, not to mention it's so easy to kill Insurgents with the burst mode in CQC and snipe them with the ACOG at range.

there does seem to be a lack of RPGs, is there even an SA7 on the map?

Like 3 of them IIRC I saw a screenshot of an Insurgent squad on Archer and they had like 2 or 3 SA7s.

They probably spawn in that airport NW side of the map or something.
