.4 Basrah as Insurgent with the DAO-12.

I had my first offline experiences on ?Airfield? and Muttrah City v1. My first round online was way later on Ejod Desert. I joined an english speaking squad on US Army side and told them, after a brief moment of hesitating, in my not so good english, that i'm new to the game ... they welcomed me with open arms and taught me the basics of PR. I still remember this epicness with the Strykers covering the push of the infantery on open ground towards the Gas Station - it blew my mind back then.

I think my first experience was muttrah city on mec. I spawned at main took a AR and tried to drive a BTR. About 10 minutes later next round on al barash I accidentally blew up a cache with grenade traps.Needless the say I decided to read the manual a bit more....

Falujah I think...playing when the enemy could still taunt you on local mumble after they had mashed you.

Joined a squad of insurgents late night and clearly a bit pissed/stoned and just all talking shit and laughing and I was in the mood too so felt quite at home...some Scousers I think. I had no idea of the weapons coming from BF2 but got a rocket launcher and was in the civi car sticking out the top when we stumble on a Bradley/apc thing not facing us and we tail it in the car and everyone is yelling at me SHOOOOOT FFS and me (not realizing the enormity of the situation like I do now) was calm and we almost rear ended the thing before I shot. Hit!. Boom. Much hilarity and high fiveing and I was hooked.

EJOD Desert...

I remember, I had not fully understood the concept of PR yet, so I jumped out of a moving truck... *DEAD*.
Then I saw respawn time... *RAGE QUIT* xD

I came back later in a tournament, and then I started really enjoying PR.

I think Mashtuur city for me too, also I have strong memories of Abadan and the VIP game mode with the SUV

Helmand Province back in the day, then old style Muttrah. Good bloody times. PR has a special place in my gaming life.

I think mine first map was Muttrah City... I started play that awesome mod about 2months ago lol.

EJOD Desert... on "Thors Bridage" server.

Can't really remember how it went, but i joined a squad with lots of communication going on and i loved it.

Wait, you can blow up a cache with grenade traps???

You used to be able to shoot them with 5.56 to death, it took about 1 or 2 LMG magazines to kill it (or the squad of 6 just laying 1 mag each in). They were buffed immensely in later patches to balance the game.

I kinda want to share my first deployment experience. I think it was on Dragon Fly back in 0.97. When I joined in I was put in the Militia team, and man did I gasp when I saw a PPSH-41 on the specialist kit. I immediately joined a squad to take that gun, not having mumble off course. I said "Hi guys" in the chat and they asked me if I was on mumble. My reply was "What is mumble?". So they told me to go and download it but I didn't want to, I just wanted to play(Silly me ). And then I proceeded to go on patrol. So I saw a guy that was unaware of my position(He was a friendly of course). So I crouched down, and started firing, by the time he could yell "Check fire!" he was already dead.
Guess you can say I was a real gem back then.
P.S. I know my storytelling sucks, deal with it.

I don't remember specificly but started playing late 0.97 (couple of months before 1.0) I think it was either a desert map or something like korengal. This just shows how awesomely bad my memory is... can't even remember what the hell I did

I do remember being quite anxious about people being able to hear me, so I would join a full server and leave immediatly because I thought they couldnt hear me/I did something wrong. Spent a lot of time on the co-op servers to try and get a sense of what everything is like, haven't really been able to fly choppers successfully yet...

Kashan Desert, and there was this [EU] clan that was constantly yelling at me because I was still in the Battlefield 2 mentality.

Mashtuur city. Pretty much the same content as vbf2 but with black SUVs and littlebirds.

Muttrah city, COOP than Ramiel as first mutiplayer map played.

Acher in 2009

double post

Kokan, on CIA 24/7 Kokan & Hookers remind me some good moment when i was spending times with my fellas 12.7 and aegus

Maybe Ghost Train in 0.5. I fell in love with the game at that point.
