Whats your favorite: "only in PR moment"

[Brotherscompany2]

The tittle says it all, no need for fancy description to be honest.

Mine would definitely be knowing there is a enemy in one small room waiting for you, so you ask over you microphone the closest person to you, regarding of him being a random or your Squad mate to cover the door while you frag it in case the enemies rushes out.
This is such a unique thing that could be very well be in a trailer or a scripted event to make a campaign look cool, but its a actual tactic that is the best approach and not a situational one, and it shows how team play dependent this game can be.


I guess the most powerless and unique experiences is being in the passenger seat of a armored transport vehicle with a limited view of the outside or none at all when things start turn ugly, and you just wait until are just there sitting, listening to whats happening and hopping for you not to die, waiting for the vehicle to stop.
The best examples that come up are:
-being in a HMVEE in Khamishiya in the middle of no where as you hear someone calling enemy APC/TANK and trying to desperately escape
-playing on a INS map as you get unexpected contact, you hear the driver and MG gunner shouting to each other as you hear the metallic sound of bullets hitting your vehicle

Another one that is really general yet I will simply place it under caring about your actual Squad mates and not wanting them to die since you are relying on them to be able to succeed in the objective you currently have in mind.
Hearing a CAS bomb or a mortar shell whistling in distance and as you realize its will hit somewhere close you, you duck into the closest cover and not only you wish that you dont die as you also wish that your mates dont get blown up (TBH I think this is another one, how frightening the explosions are in this game and its not something you will simply bunny hop away into safety)

Grump please dont drop your 5 pages text, its a bit overkill although I appreciate your enthusiasm, most people (me included will just skip it [no offence meant budy]).

Oh man so many great only in PR moments. I think just the system of fire support in general being a thing be it mortars or CAS (or rocket Techie). Other games have it, but of course its almost never real people. Finding the target, checking the status of CAS, then talking to the CAS SL who may even be a spotter on the ground or in an aircraft not equipped for air-to-ground combat, giving them coordinates to relay to the pilots, then putting the laze up and watching the bombs or missile fall onto the target and reporting the damage back to CAS squad. Chefs kiss.
Of course, mortars are easier to communicate with but that doesn't make it any less immersive. Some SLs will even request a certain type of munition. Then suggesting fire adjustment until they hit what you need if they didn't the first time.

Oh yeah and CIVIS! Pls stop nerfing the civis devs.

p.s. love the Gump disclaimer

So many great videos from Mac_Dre, but he scrubbed his channel and removed all of the videos. Taking down hours and hours of Hardcore server good times that included many YT gaming personalities that are somewhat known by many milsim gamers today.

BF3 R coming soon <3

That moment where your team finally managed to push the cache and you have 2-3 squads sweeping through the same village, clearing buildings and killing some remaining enemies while looking for the cache. Its always so busy, you hear little groups of people talking to each other in local chat left and right, people calling for medic or "someone grenade this room he's in there" or "I got him I got him". Stuff like that.

Also when you're SL or commander and there is a heated discussion in SL chat about tactics and strategy, what the team should do next etc. Always fun to listen to as long as it doesn't get toxic

That feeling when you did something risky as a SL and it all worked out and you possibly even led your team to victory. No better feeling in any video game

Those firefights where you barely see the enemy but there is a lot going on. You put out a lot of bullets (suppressive fire or just spray and pray), flank around and constantly try to predict the enemy's next step, its like a chess game where each side tries to force the other side's hand and in the end the fight reaches it's conclusion. There is nothing like this in any other FPS.

Those troll moments or just epic moments in general, where you sneak behind enemy line or manage to get a knife kill or you kill 5 guys with a grenade, stuff like that. There are impressive moments in other games too but IMO in PR they feel even more special, and there is more room for creativity

Logging onto the game and joining the squad where your friends are in.

Or just being in a squad with complete randoms and over the course of the match you become friends

As a Sniper:

That moment I realize I have been sniping from the same position for way too long and I am being shot at from allover, and a squad is running in to get me.

Engaged in a hunt where I am the solitary prey, and the hunters know where I am.

I ran this way and that way, evading the enemy, get shot, turn a corner a surprised one enemy with my M9, then find an ammo bag in a random place and patch up, get to a rooftop without being seen.

See the enemy squad closing in onto my former position below me...

Take out one, they all run and hide, take out another, then another...

the ones that are left smoke and run...

then take out one more running in the distance.

Egress to my closest FOB to re-arm and heal, and move out again.

That was just tonight on Fallujiah, Russian Reality. With all the coffee i had I was shaking and my palms were sweaty AF.

Getting a good flank in a tank/IFv.
Really makes you feel powerful when you devastate the enemies assets, and push them back a few FOBS.
