[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.
