Hello everyone. I guess it's a common event, but I thought I should introduce myself to the Project Reality community. After reading up about PR, I instantly downloaded it and have played a few matches....Its unbelivable. After trying out the Practive mini-mod I decided I needed some help, so I am currently half way through reading the manual and boy It sounds soo good. Small question, is the Sniper/Spotter combination popular? I cant imaging anyone actually being a spotter but I would definately take up that position.
Anyway, good to see you all and hope to squad with you online.
Oorah.

First Welcome to PR!
Second, to answer your question, its not common but I have see it work really well. Just like any game you have thoes that play and those that get involved (reality play). I have see spotter used very well, some sniper teams are unbeatable (ie. at the top of the hotel building)

Was that question for a reason? LOL

Wow, Fuzzhead. I've only been here 2 days now but I already recognise you - I watched your training vids on Youtube. Sun Tzu would be proud

welcome to the party buddy!
Teamwork is the essescence of PR, without it = epic fail.
Feel free to drop into the .:iGi:. server and i'll squad with you.
Sniping/spotting is boring! (IMO) what you really want is to medic and watch as your SL is lying there bleeding out and only gets saved by you! all the time while bullets are pinging around you!

Yeah, I'm definately actively searching out a speciality that I can practice. So far I've just been following the advice of going rifleman.
