Now I've realized it. PR is just AD&D in modern warfare disguise.
The RPG element is strong yes.. I tried to play it, but the game refused to communicate with me. I was in a squad, I had VoIP on. Still, there is nothing there... I will try again but the lack of experience makes it hard for me to not hover my fingers over the Alt+F4 buttons.
And I am trying. Im looking, Im walking, Im patient.. the most I see is guys "reenacting" more than playing. I get when people who are in the army used simulations such as Virtual Battle System (
http://www.bisimulations.com/) but for me, a regular player who thinks armies are a bit lol in general and that military behaviour is corny, it just makes the experience wither away when everybody withdraws to their corners of the map.
It's cool at the start of the round when everybody is gearing up, filling up vehicles and take off in a colon like "america, Fuck Yeah" but then 2minutes after is like "helloooo...echoooo" Im suddenly
I Am Legend alone in the streets.
Trying to keep up with your "squad" or should i say, see when they fail to keep up with me as they stop, chit-chat a little bit (10minutes) and then refuse to go where the arrows on the minimap finally tell us to go, is just weird... feels more like playing with bots tbh.
I guess the SL is the "Game Master" in this RPG and the other 5 dudes are pretending that he knows something that they don't.
- Ok over here is the enemy, we need to keep quiet so they don't hear us, when you're like
- uuuh... no they're not, I just went over there and it was empty, btw how would you know that, do you have some minimap radar gadget or wallhack that allows you to see all the enemies? Why don't we just get over to the area on the map that you allready know they are all camping in anyway? you're not my boss, screw you! I will try to play some more, because when you actually have a big fight for a big controlpoint, it gets cool and fun
but the absence of fun in general make me really want to escape the game.
It is like going to a big party, where everybody except you is sober and sits in corner listening to some bad emo-pop music, when you just wanna party
(- This is insurgency mode btw... AAS is better.)
