[AAR] Not my first PR game, but can still feel like it

Hi guys,

Well, it has been over a week now since My first PR game. I have killed and died, followed and directed, been shocked and amazed.

I am still finding new features, like running into barbed wire hurts quite allot, being a squad leader actually involves a fair bit of practice and friendly APC's cant always see you when your laying prone behind them. On the nicer side I have also found that the insurgents semi auto rifle is a great gun, IED's are fun (now that I have not blown a friendly cache with one!) and you can take out 2 enemy squads with a SAW using a clever ambush spot and praying they are clumped together (rushing for a cache they thought was unprotected).

I have been invited (and I accepted) into a clan, the intention behind this is to get into scrimmages and hopefully tournaments with them. Fair enough I have a long way to go before i can consistently be relied on as a point man, squad leader or being able to tell the difference between friend and foe but it was a huge confidence booster.

Every now and again I will have a round where it feels like my first game all over again, stupid mistakes or just completely forgetting about something (like spawning on a rally rather than that spawn 2km away), but other games can be the complete opposite. I have found joining a squad in-game (if not on my clans server) with a decent leader and a good group of players is important in enjoying the round.

So once again everything is good, I still love the game and I am still getting the itch to play half way through the day!

I am yet to get mumble up and running, I have been told it will improve my gaming experience. I will hopefully get this sorted soon!

Thanks guys,

Exit.

Yeah, the SAW is great. You can generally use it like a sniper rifle, your range is virtually unlimited.

not in INSurgency (very hard, because there is no scoping).



btw be very welcome to PR Exit, being this your first game or not, being you in a clan or not. I always learn something new in each game I play, as an SL or not.


Well good luck there exit, and if you need help SLing, pm me!

yea barbed wire should slow you down like if your clothes were caught in it. It shouldnt kill you unless your really jumping around in it, the delight of it irl is to watch the enemies get caught up in it, then its easy target practice.

barb wire is diff than razor wire btw...

razor wire can shred clothes easily, its thousands of razor blades strung out in every angle.... not something you want to get anywhere near, nasty stuff....

The taliban is used to throw people in it who don't listen. My brother says he saw some people in TK hospital. (Tarin Kowt) that was thrown in that stuff. :x
