Well, looks like I won't be playing as someone has stolen my name for PR. I will be an active admin via RCON, the event will still go on!

I blame the recent "fix" in patch for civi ROE for server not being 100/100 right now.

Who knows why it's empty. There's 400 people playing PR right at this moment and not one wants to play an event. That's cool.

EVENT CANCELLED

Its because the community doesnt know how to play ins and then blame the gamemode and start hating it. Anything that becomes a challenge in the game is hated by the majority of the players.

It's called blufor bias and very few people want to play on faction that keeps getting short end of stick.

I guess I'm definitely in the minority, but I often switch to Opfor (usually has less players, anyway), especially on Insurgency maps. Every class getting the same (albeit superior) weapon and a 4x scope is a little easy and boring to me, I like the satisfaction long range kills with irons and just the overall feel of playing the unconventional forces altogether.

Sorry to see the event was cancelled, I had been checking PRspy all day to see if the server was populated on Ins mode like I had expected and was a little disappointed to see it not very lively.

The issue was that no one was wanting to help seed. We got to 30 People then we died out. There were 400 players on PR at the time, but no one was interested enough to come into the even or our TS to see what the deal was, so I cancelled it not due to lack of participation but due to the fact I did not want to waste anyone's time. The guys I did play with the and pubs that came, I had a great time with. We will run an event again.

I ALWAYS switch to Opfor because I don't play easymode.

Yet it's still pointless.

Seems like some of CIA's biggest fans are running the same event. Interesting.
