I could never get into Project Reality as much as I am into vanilla Battlefield 2 right now.
[QUOTE=ForgotPassword;28128800]One of the few things I hate are some of the stupid shit admins who jump to conclusions. I was on one server and I'm sure many of you know the rule about naming a squad for a specific asset. And a lot of the server's clan members were on. I joined a squad for APC's and drove around and got killed. My squad leader decides to take a different one and we roll around and shoot some people up and eventually end up dead. My squad leader calls it a day and leaves leaving me alone in the squad so I just run around waiting for someone new to join and one of the clan members join and go "did you just steal one of our BMP's blah blah blah." I don't really know the names for most of the armored vehicles in the game so I'm confused. "hey, are you listening to me?" "Uhh, yeah my SL wanted it." Warning, Don't steal assets or I'll ban you. Wtf So I proceeded to mine all the shit in their base and leave. Helicopters and all.[/QUOTE] Why the fuck are people complaining about that admins are doing their fucking job and keeping this game grief-free? Seriously, this kind of stuff is why Project Reality remains good, it's because you don't get fucktards taking vehicles alone and getting them blown up without doing anything good.
While I agree with the above post I also sympathise slightly with who he was quoting. One time, some clanmates and I were on the VBIOS Ukrainian server, playing IDF on Iron Eagle. Now, anyone who knows their stuff about PR or modern tanks knows that the Merkava tank can hold infantry in the back, and those who know a bit more could tell you that the IDF uses them in Mechanised Infantry formations along with IFVs and APCs. So anyway, we made a squad called MECH INF and grabbed a Merkava, got in infantry in the back and drove off up to the contested flag. About the time when we arrived and started fighting the enemy T-72s, the admin resigned me and my driver from the squad (kicks you out, so you cant use vehicles), for no apparent reason. What followed was a 10 minute long ridiculous argument. The admin insisted that we had to rename our squad to something like tank, and demanded that we stopped transporting infantry. Well I suppose they put the troop compartment in the Merkava in there for shits and giggles. Long story short we left before he decided to ban us, but I can't believe there are people out there who place the "perfect" naming of squads over actual gameplay. And technically, we were right anyway. VBIOS is probably the worst server in PR anyway, never had a good game on there, aleast in recent memory.
well swearing isn't exactly mature, i see no issue in a swear word here and there when someone gets really excited or frustrated, but i do hate hearing someone say fuck or shit after every word
I've been playing this a lot lately, getting a kill in this game is the most satisfying thing in the world.
[QUOTE=Micr0;28135556]I've been playing this a lot lately, getting a kill in this game is the most satisfying thing in the world.[/QUOTE] Not as satisfying as not getting a single kill but you're at the top of the scoreboard
building firebases all game is boring
Helping your squad isnt
[QUOTE=elitehakor v2;28135897]Helping your squad isnt[/QUOTE] building firebases is
I remember one game we had a guy who swiped a stinger kit off an enemy. Spent a good 15-20 minutes driving him around trying to find something to take down. Building firebases sucks if you have about 3 people working on it. If you're in a full squad you won't give a shit as long as the majority help putting it up.
[QUOTE=JerryK;28135589]building firebases all game is boring[/QUOTE] I just put my phone on my mouse and let it auto-dig. Fuck building.
[QUOTE=elitehakor v2;28135578]Not as satisfying as not getting a single kill but you're at the top of the scoreboard[/QUOTE] Not as satisfying as your squad charging an enemy tank with incendiary grenades and killing it, Men of War style.
[QUOTE=LordLoss;28137637]Not as satisfying as your squad charging an enemy tank with incendiary grenades and killing it, Men of War style.[/QUOTE] I was pretty confused the first time my tank got destroyed by an incendiary. I didn't know it was possible at the time.
How do you guys feel about Battlefield 3 not receiving the SDK? That means we're not getting Project Reality for BF3...
I bought BF2 yesterday. Mainly for Project Reality.
I reinstalled Project Reality and gave it a whirl, and honestly, I can't get into it. At all.
The best way to play is to get with some people you know, and play with them.

[QUOTE=Trinholdt;28143700]I reinstalled Project Reality and gave it a whirl, and honestly, I can't get into it. At all.[/QUOTE] I really dislike playing by myself, but with either / both of my buddies I'll usually play for a couple of hours at a time.
[QUOTE=JerryK;28135589]building firebases all game is boring[/QUOTE] couldn'tagree more, i had a stupid French SL and all he did was build firebases and mortars, and when they got shot down, build them back in exactly the same place.
This game is awesome but i hate it when there's like 8 squads and half of them are either apc or sniper squads and the squads that are actually playing are shitty 3 man squads where each squad member is miles away from the other and there's no communication. It's awesome when you get like 3 full squads on that mumble thing on ramiel and stuff though
For the love of God, I can count the amount of people I've met on this mod who speak english on my hand.
[QUOTE=evilweazel;28147665]For the love of God, I can count the amount of people I've met on this mod who speak english on my hand.[/QUOTE] Play on English speaking servers? 90% of the people who I've played with speak English. Even the French/German people I've played with speak English all the time.
[QUOTE=evilweazel;28147665]For the love of God, I can count the amount of people I've met on this mod who speak english on my hand.[/QUOTE] I usually always play on *NwA*, Pelitutka or COFFEE-SHOP server and pretty much everyone on them speaks english (except the squads on Pelitutka that are for finnish players)
[QUOTE=elitehakor v2;28135578]Not as satisfying as not getting a single kill but you're at the top of the scoreboard[/QUOTE] You don't know satisfaction until you've single-handedly thwarted a flanking manoevre by a full enemy squad. [editline]19th February 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=evilweazel;28147665]For the love of God, I can count the amount of people I've met on this mod who speak english on my hand.[/QUOTE] UKWF, NwA and MeRK servers are populated almost entirely by English and english speaking players.
what's that one map where it's i think uk versus russian-like militiants? i'm sure there's more than one but I remember only playing it once and it was AMAZING we had two infantry squads moving in to secure this militiant-controlled airport and a sniper provided overwatch while the two squads moved in on the north and south sides of the airport. it was tactical as fuck good map.
I love the way that all these "R34l!sm h4rdc0r3" say things like "Removed unnecessary 2d information in HUD." (Ahem, don't exactly recall health and ammo being "Unnecessary 2d information clutter", crosshairs I can live without (with the exception of the bullshit HL2 mod Insurgency where the gun FUCKING MOVES EVERYWHERE). Back more onto topic, it is just plainly annoying when they say "Removed unnecessary 2d information clutter so you can focus on what matters" when they could follow a little rule called "KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID" and simply say "Removed HUD". I have been playing a lot of PR, it runs perfectly (45-60 frames 90% of time), but the LOADING TIMES ARE LITERALLY FOREVER.
guniv and I are going to play a round or two of Project Reality, hop on [url=http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1054619-FaceVent%C2%B2-Now-with-200-less-creep?highlight=]FaceVent[/url] and get in the Playing Vidya channel. Newcomers welcome! First come, first served.

Okay you are healthy. It shows you how many more mags you have, also. Not sure about your loading issues, mine takes about 30 seconds - 1 minute to load. My buddy has a shit computer and it takes him about 2-3 minutes...Unless you have an old hard drive or shit PC, maybe you just need a defrag.
I have super fast map loading times but it always takes an age to log in for me.
Kokan and Hookers is my favorite server. There's a lot of nice people on there.
