Ok, this may be a long post but here goes.
I can just remember 0.3. As i plugged in my mice and booted up PR almost the only icon on my desktop. When i refreshed my servers it was fairly hard to find a full server. Now the other night as a did the same routine around 100 or over servers came up. There was at least 2 full and the rest of about 8 had at least 5 players in them. I was just thinking, jeez, i remember when there were hardly no one on at all and now, only 0.5 there are full servers. It hit me because only recently has there been complaints from plenty of people on the forum-including myself-(which the current users in the forum has increased dramatically,) of total n00bs or smacktards whatever you like to call them. They TK they kit steal they dont join squads they are racist they swear frequently..the list goes on of complaints. After the release of 0.5 i went on to IGN website only to find "PR MOD FOR BF2!!! Download it!" i was happy to see that it had got some recognition but have only just realized the type of media recognition like this has whats made PR so popular, and the more players the more chance of n00bs, smacktards etc... With the release of 0.6 coming shortly i am kinda' worried about what is held for PR in the future. Like a game almost, this mod becomes popular as it progresses and it is progressing. Now i am not blaming anyone especially the devs, i am blaming the useless idiots that cant respect a mod so they have to ruin it for everyone else.
This may just be a pointless post but i would like to hear some of your views.
Thanks

I've noticed the increased amount of idiocy as well, but I'm sure that as time goes by and the mod is finished, the "n00b" population will decrease and we'll find ourselves surrounded by good players and a great mod with great gameplay.

ya iam finding that people would like to cheat to win and not play fair. I have been playing when 0.5 came out and i have been surpised to see people trying to ruin the great teamwork that it started with in my mind "We need more BANS"

It's a catch 22 really. I have found that there is an increase in new players that don't care to play PR the way it is meant to be played. BUT I have also found that there is a much higher level of people playing this mod now that know how to play. They understand the rules, kits and need for voip. I will take the idiots as long as there is a solid amount of good players in the future

more noobs = higher K/D ratio. . . . Also, more bullet catchers. Doing the jobs no one likes. Making sure you have pleanty of bullets by running out and catching the ones in the air.

Not those kind of noobs...
You can get owned, bombed, raped etc, even if you do have teamplayers...but if your squadmates are so dumb, they cant even organize and obey orders, get the right kits, take cover...to at least decrease the Rambo level, then they are noobs...noobs, you can still save and teach PR ways..
Smacktards are the irreversible...

Oh, think, the IGN admins should redirect the PR download link to PoE2 website...that should save us..

Took me 50 seconds to read, and English ain't my first language. Isn't Australian English!?! j/k
I see a lot of pople coming on the forums complaining about unwelcome guests. I can't remember how many complaints there on these forums, I think I lost count on the 250th or so.
We all know that the game is becoming popular and that PR is a victim of it's own popularity. The only thing we can do is to wait for 1.0, and let it cool down, and continue to play it the way it is meant to be played, even if BF5 is released.

Do you honestly never read anything over 300 words?

I used to love all of the other players. I started playing during 0.2 (I think) and back then no matter which of the few servers you joined, you would always find the server full of teamplayers. It was just awesome.
Now, you join a server and there are maybe 5 teamplayers, 50 guys who care only about their own k/d ratio and the rest of the server (which would make it 6) are those kind guys who never bothered to check the player guide and are asking why the apc doesn't move or why they can't get a sniper..
I don't think I have joined a server in the last 2 or 3 months without having a few guys on TS with me, because that's the only way I am going to find a damn great squad.

Brood you dont know how long it took me to write that. Why post stupid things like that when you didnt even read it? Please dont post that when you dont even know what its about. If you insist to post stupid things that just waste the space on a page please post them in other forums.

z0mg, I want some net friends, so we can hang together in a squad...
Altough somewhere in my TS list is a server, where I used to hang playing Black Hawk Down cooperative...then the squad splited, server host went playing vBF2 and others formed their own squad...
I actually joined them in vBF2, owning big time everwhere, so they'd stop playing it...really a shame, I think vBF2 makes people retarded or soemthing, cos now they all just care for the lousy ranks...where are the good ol times, when no one cared about points, when playing? (mainly cos the scoring system in coop was screwed :roll

Warrior..... proof read your posts and make more paragraphs so it's easier to read.
I used to fill the page with no breaks too but it reads easier if you go back and add some paragraphs.

Guys, this thread isn't about Paragraphing or Grammar.
Keep it on topic.
