But when I downloaded PR .5....WHOA, This is the REAL Bf2.
Well like I said, things like grenade spam and chopper ramming were what surprised me. Allow me to regale you with a story. A story of pain and sorrow, but with a light at the end of a long tunnel
.
My fifth or so time in a round was also my worse BF2 experience and force me to search for a mod or something to improve gameplay. "Good old WAKE ISLAND" I thought, I had had much fun on it playing BF1942. Spawned as PLA and ran around a bit to see the similarities from BF1942's wake.
After I satisfied my nostalgia I ran over to a recently spawned jet, I thought "Sweet lets see what these jets can do" (pausing ever so breifly to wonder how a medic knew how to fly a jet), anyway I hop in in time to see a Blackhawk dive-bombing at me. I think "Oh ****!" and attempt to hop out only to be killed by the explosion and a message saying "Hey Dude388 you got 733t pwned by my chopper! Ha HA!".........
After that little escapade, I decided to try some infantry combat...expecting organized and tactical advances with my squad with armor support. I was instead greeted by no link-up with my squad and promptly run over by a friendly jeep rushing for some armor....wonderful
. So I manage to spawn on my squad leader who was just standing behind a house throwing grenades over the roof onto the flag while, occasionally stopping to throw a ammo pack down. I ask my squad leader if we are going to assault the flag, his brilliant response was "No way! I'm getting loads of points!" And was rewarded with a kick from the squad for arguing about why that was a bad attack plan. This was followed by a prompt-to disconnection by me and the closing of BF2.
So after about a month or so I adjust to the odd gameplay style of vBF2, however I always wanted to actually play a true war-type simulation with BF2...So I promptly went mod searching. I was rewarded with a well recognized and well rated mod called....(guess it?
) PROJECT REALITY.
The rest they say, is history
