I consider myself a newbie with only about 12 hrs of on line game play under my belt and there is quit a bit to learn yet before I would consider my self very proficient in all aspects of PRM.
PRM isn’t exactly rocket science and is easy enough to play BUT if you’re striving for realism, a sense of immersion and want to be a SUPERIOR SL or commander, as in the real military, you have to know and understand the SL/Commander features , the various roles, abilities and limitations of each class so they can be deployed and utilized effectively, as well as how to take and give orders This is what takes time to learn.
The PRM crew is proposing an excellent training session that's geared towards learning aspects of PRM (which unfortunately I might not be able to attend) Also,if you’re new , want some help or simply curious about aspects of the game read on.
First and foremost, when you join a squad, proudly announce to the SL you are new. I’ve done this on TG’s server and just about EVERY SL has been VERY understanding, informative and helpful. Even organized a small training session over at TG’s which I attended and learnt a lot.
Secondly, there is a manual available that’s a good read and points out some aspects of the game even veteran players were surprised to find out.
Thirdly, there is a SP mode available where you can play around with ANYTHING you want and no one cares. You can adjust the spawn times so you don’t have to wait the 30+ seconds if you make a foolish mistake, fire up ANY asset you want and give it a whirl , practice basic SL , commander functions etc. etc.
And the SP mode is simply just plain FUN to play as there’s no pressure and a great way to let of some steam , blow tings up and have a ball for a few minutes.
So , if you’re new to PRM and bothered reading all this..a big hearty WELCOME and don’t be afraid to announce your new. No one should be judging you and the vast majority of decent PRM players (the type you’d WANT to learn from) are more than willing to help and quit often go out of their way to explain things. (kinda makes them feel superior
).Only for gawds sake , don’t ask “where’s my cross hairs”.
Have a good day all.
