. so i think all the new pilots or the ones who want to practice flying realy need to get the kahsan desert practicing map. i have heard about it but i dont know where it is in the forumes. so plz look it up and improve your skills in it before you get to fly in the real game. thank you 
If you're in the middle of a particularly tough round it does.'S.P.C-[Reality wrote:-;470040']taking a few mins of your time and helping ppl wont do any harm to you.
we don't want to spend the majority of our time as gurus to people that can't or wont, as AD&A says, at least skim the manual. It takes hardly any time to do that

I don't often lock my squads but that's because I'm lazy and don't want the trouble of inviting and kicking but I have been in a lot of locked squads and in response to his comment" We were not the best squad coz the "cream of the crop" were all in there LOCKED squad of premadonas", I have a question.
I bought the base game, just like you.
I downloaded the mod, just like you.
Where does it say it owe it to you to be an educator and a mentor ?
Where does it say I must leave my squad open so every person with an attitude and desire for a specialty kit can pop in, take assets and roll onto certain death ?
There is an enormous amount of help on the forums and in the games for almost any conceivable problem you may have, from CTD to advice to the lovelorn, so my question is.......why can't I lock my squad and play a video game without feeling like I am " Leaving a Child Behind " because I won't stop to tell someone how to get a pilot kit.
" You need to be in a squad, that has at least 3 people, in order to request a kit, except pilot kit, squad can be 1, and you must be at the main flag or next to the aircraft for pilot kit, or next to the armor for armor kit, but other than that you can also use a rally point, must have 3+1 SL to set Rally Point and this will not give you crewman. pilot or Heavy AT, or you can be near a crate. "
That is the short answer to " Why can't I fly " and I'm pretty sure I left out a few details, but maybe you are right, maybe I am a churlish, snobbish Prima Dona because I refuse to type that 3-75 times a game to sort out those who can't be bothered to skim the manual.

He didn't ask how to fly a 'copter. If he did I would have been happy to say how (that's how I learnt). But no. When asked about the tk he thought it was funny. Why would players help noobs like that. The later questions got answered with read the wiki.... the response can't be bothered. Why would anyone else bother?
true. i cant count the times someone has offered to ferry me and my squad closer to the front sayingOutlawz wrote:Thing is, they all think, they can fly the helicopters, because they think, handling is the same as vBF2
only to have the chopper flip on takeoff or nose dive after moving forward... then you see a message or hear VOIP likeyeah, I can fly, I'm actually pretty good
While me and everyone else is dead and not helping our team cuz of someone who couldnt fly but thought he couldWhat the heck, the handling's different from BF2? Lame.
1..is that a puni jeep meh cnt drive that1 without bin a certain guy ill just drive this big jeep thing insted 2..wanna have fun blowing stuff up in a tank, you cnt unless your the right guy n have a team 3.. is that a spawn neer there base i see cool (clicks to spawn) WTF, this isnt where i clicked spawned,oh well, try again (commits suicide) nice 1min w8 after suicide, WFT same place but this time fell from a hight that caused me to bleed and DIE.. i will find more and maby make a vid
1,you cnt drive some jeeps without bin a certain kit, but you can drive big votnik things without bin a certain
kit,2, you need a team in yout tank for it to be fully functional AKA shoot, drive ect,
a lot of what project reality relies on is user intent. yeah, you can keep jumping BUT your stamina is gone after two jumps or so, that means no running after jumping twice. a lot of workarounds are involved in the mod and when players come to a Reality Server, they tend to WANT to play realistically... what I think this video is showing, along with new stuff in the mod, is the average type of player who plays PR
also, when throwing a grenade, it takes about 5 seconds or so to "reload" the next one. Meaning, theres at LEAST 5 seconds between your grenades. Meaning, no nade spam. also, you dont have anywhere near as many as you had in vanilla.
I think we all would say PR isnt perfect, but some of the things you are pointing out are incorrect observations.
you arent allowed to drive APCs, Tanks, or Repair/Support type vehicles without a crewman kit(request it),you can still drive the HMMV and Vodnik which are light infantry vehicles. just cuz the vodnik is bigger than an apc(or close) doesnt make your above point valid.
no offense, i just hope you can give it another shot after knowing some of these things. and maybe PR just isnt for you
Those are called rally points, placed by each squad leader. you can only spawn on YOUR squads rally point. Theres a guide installed with PR, please read it.
Also, If you spawn on another Rally point, it will "transport" you to your home base.
hence project REALITY. More than one guy to drive and shoot a tank. besides, it makes it more rewarding knowing you owned AND played as a team. This isnt meant to make BF2 BETTER per se, its meant to make it more REALISTIC. Whether its better or not is ultimately up to each player...
waw, tnx alot, that basicly mullered evry thing i sed, supose after reading this nice essay i can give this mod another go, and insted of trying to find faults try find the good point.. plus you din go about answering like a tard n saying, oooh you should play the mod 1st, you actualy explained tings, so tnx again
Err, how does that make him a 'noob'?Emnyron wrote:Some idiots just dont deserve...
Me and a mate hid one of our team`s cobras in the hangar, becuse we knew that if that havok somehow got around us, it whoud take that parked cobra out..
A few minutes later, some random noob jumps in our squad, and ask`s.. When does the 2th cobra spawn..
.....
Need I say more...
