well iv downloaded PR and not even played original bf2 so cant get more noob than that this is my experience.

i decided unwisly maby to take the officer kit and lead a squad using voip on al basrah( my favourite map) anyway learned the commands to issue waypoints and was leading my section across streets and up allyways on a search and destroy mission and was surprised to find that the entire squad of random people i dont even know are following my orders and are moving in good order(ownage).
we start taking fire from a 2 story building across the road and the adrenaline is pumping im ordering suppression fire on the windows from the machine gunner and rpgs r flyin over my head from the roof top, realising that we are getting bogged down in this allyway with cocktails flying at us and bullets pinging off the walls voip is getting very intense and i didnt realise i was taking this game so serious that im screaming orders on vent to fix bayonets( yea i no there are none lol) and deploy a smoke screen on the road, once that smoke was deployed im up and running across the middle of the street shouting "COVERING FIRE,WITH ME LADS TALLY HO,running though the smoke tossing granades into the windows,i leap over the small wall into the garden,switch to burst fire mode on my sa80 and charge up the stairs blasting an insurgent in the head multiple times not even stopping to check if hes dead, clear the ground floor and within seconds im charging onto the roof screaming on voip to keep the fight up max aggression, onto the roof blow a few hoels into the rpg and sniper on the roof and secure the roof before finally realsing what iv just done.i order my men to regroup do an ammo check and health check in the house and i begin to reflect on my first section attack on a defensive postion when petrol bombs start hitting the building and my men are getting cooked alive inside the house and we have no escape and we burn to death in a gaypile on the firstfloor .
at this point i take my headset off to take a rest and turn around and my dad is standing at the door stairing at me shaking his head saying what the f==k is wrong with me, i try to explain to him that iv just led an assult on a enemy postion but he walked off to make the dinner.

I can sense the beginning of a crippling addiction right here

yeeeah ;p
and its only the very beginning
good read

just wait for the next tim eyou do it=P

Thats the start....Expect more

my first round of pr was on fools road, was in position of of the truck looking out the back as we got chased down the road by a BRDM2 with everyone yelling over the mics. it was great , the guy in position 6 next to my fired an AT4 narrowly missing the BRDM2 and hitting the ground infront of it causing it to smoke. we got away via a friendly apc helping us out. it was so harrowing

My first was Kashan. Didn't turn out too well, since I dropped into the middle of a TK-fest at the US main. Then I got in a black hawk that got shot down going into the bunker complex.

First good round was on 7-Gates. This got me hooked on PR: I was playing on an infantry squad as Brits. We were on the frontline nonstop, always first in. I spent most of my time as the squad's medic, keeping our boys alive. My squadleader, Lt. Greenhorn (this was his actual nick) definitely knew what he was doing, because we managed to push all the way up to the Chinese base. It was that day that I really learned what PR was all about.

My first enthralling experience was on Sunset City, as Chinese, I was helping defend a line and I was next to the Support Gunner. I look at him for a second and suddenly he gets shot dead in a volley of fire. I run back around the corner of this T intersection. I crouch at some crates, go full auto, and scope to wards the T-section. Then this American comes around the corner and just as I start to fire he fires at me. I kill him but I'm also suppressed. That moment was a real surge of adrenaline.

So exiting. First kill. No looking back.

the oldest pr memory i got(not to long ago) was my freand from donw the streaght chatten me over ts while on my team in a diffrent squad, adn he moved me down with mg, nomatter where i was.... i could be on the other side of the map, and he would somehow hit me, (he was haven a was and the bullet hit me from farther then i could see

Ok thread changes from a guys first experience to everybodies first experience lol

Its a sharing experience. We're bonding over war stories.

'S.P.C-[Reality wrote:-;870737']wait until you learn how to send lazer targets and watch the jdam(which is droped by another player, yes i know, its AWESOME) go down... then you will be screaming your @$$ off from joy

JDAM is dropped by the commander, and you don't actually see the aircraft come in.

Lasing a target for the A10, on the other hand... Now that's pretty awesome, if the pilot knows what he's doing.

You meant laser targeted bombs yea its a cool story. My first experience was relaxing on assault on mestia i was with these cool squad theyre tags were Beer lol.Those were funny and we had some firefights.Pr started the other day with a full action kashan 3 humvees convoy and 2 blackhawks over them.Moving to south village.Thats was Pr right there

If all 'noobs' were like you, PR would be the better for it.

Great story! Good to hear you had a great first experience!

My oldest memory of PR was when I discovered it in..late '05 I think, it was a bit before I joined the forums. Dont know what version but I had a terrible internet connection at the time so I could only play SP[this was back when PR was similar enough in basic functions to vBF2 to still have SP support]

I was on Kashan with the SAW just MOWING guys down. I knew it was cheesily unrealistic to just be mowing guys down, but I loved how responsive the weapons were, the lack of crosshair, etc. Though the AI at the time wasnt up for PR, everything about it felt so progressive I knew that, though small and humble, PR would continue to be my favorite game for a long time. Little did I know that I would be on the DEV team 3 years later and its pretty much the only game I play on a regular basis. Other games get beaten and then tossed aside for a good round of PR Haha

I think my most "whoah" moment since then has been seeing the promotional work for Kashan and just having my mind get blown out the back of my head. I could barely comprehend a map that big on BF2

ahhhh, the nostalgia get to you.
Most lol comments ingame squadleading and commanding is "To Victory" as we charge the MEC main on Jabal and "Once more unto the breach, we happy few!" as brit commander on 7 gates, urging 2 squads to make 1 final push for the 2nd flag (they take it with style, not a single man down!)

so the addiction begins.....
