Project Reality Forums

as a newbie Commander that has only played in insurgency maps, i have discovered three things that make me spurt liquid hate from every pore in my body

#1 People doings things that they don't now how to do "t.ex flying planes"

#2 People taking trucks and driving it were they are going and then just leaving it, usually leaving it in really hot areas "man... i really hate this one"

#3 People jumping into armor and thinking it's some kind of god machine, so they take that four million pund piece of equipment, drive of all alone, taking the main road into the city, then into the hot zone, and when they spot an enemy they drive up as close as possible to engage them

So i was wondering what makes other commanders just want to go out of their command post and shot someone

Welcome to the forums.

I believe we have a number of these threads floating around. You should feel free to use the "search" function, and add to those.

And I'm sure every one one these boards will agree that your list holds some of the top contenders for "most frustrating things people do in PR" award.

i was just curious what commanders think and i don't think there is such a thread in the forum

if it is i have to search harder next time

1. SLs or SMs not following orders (but thats not a huge problem since i just report them and they get kicked)

2. People one-manning

3. People taking needed special kits, running into the enemy and just letting the enemy take the kit

Just did a search, the last thread of this name was locked for "cool down period". I did not read through it. I'll just assume some posters were getting "passionate" about their rants.

I'll add my own to this, how ever Log hit my top pet peeves on the dime.

+ 1 to yours. People who fire weapons from cache locations. Especially RPGs and LMGs, or otherwise give away unrevealed caches through acts of stupidity.

Younger players with high pitch voices screaming in VOIP.
People generally being very loud or reciting idiotic quotes in VOIP.
People who take an asset you're obviously using with youre squad (especially hate it when they take it and get it blown up in 5 seconds or a squad member is still in the vehicle!)
People who join a squad for a sniper kit then leave
Muttrah City where 7 squads load up for Transport
People who call in lase and expect you to magically know where it is, then yell when you don't help
Commanders who ignore you
Squad members who run off doing their own thing too often and usually getting killed because of ramboing.
Blue guys giving away your position when you're trying to sneak
Friendlies firing on friendly vehicles.
People who request a helo extract and pop smoke but their squad is so spread out by the time they're loaded you're already hat'd
People who dont want to stay on defence or get bored and leave defence without telling th rest of the team (I often keep my own squad as defence to compensate for this)
A lone tank rolling off to war. Tanks should travel in at least a 2. usually best for 2 squads to group as 4 tanks, 1 AAV and 1 logi.
Attack helo pilots who fly at around 50 meters off the ground just to be hit by a tank.
People who accuse you of hacking because you managed to single handedly wipe out and entire squad or found a cache through luck.
People who use big red to kill 3 infantry units instead of going after bigger targets.
Insurgents who actively attack the enemy as in engaging them on open ground from 300 meters away instead of waiting in ambush
People who type up the cache location
Team switchers
Team Switchers who gave away enemy locations
People on your team in a chat program with their friends giving them your positions.
When APC's don't give transport because they want to go rape up infantry
People who camp firebases or hideouts but dont attempt to destroy it, instead just padding for kills.
people who scream in allchat because somebody else took an asset that wasn't being used because their squad is called "A10 CAS" and this immediatly means it's theirs.
people who don't have a microphone
People who chat spam
people who wont give you a second chance or think you're a bad SL because your squad was ambushed, this is obviously immediatly your fault and you dont deserve anything.
people who run others over or circle around to run you over.
THose who use humvees as personal transport to abandon them in stupid locations
Rage quitters (I've done it myself ebfore and thusly I do hate myself )
People who refuse to go medic "player 1 you take medic" "No." "Player 1, take medic." "Jsut spawned, already rifleman." "Go to the supply crates and get medic." "I got LAT"
people who take kits from supply crates without asking their squad leaders permission.
people who treat PR like an arcade game of running in on fulyl automatic, dying and doing it again then complaining everybody hacks.
people who TK you so their friend can take your kit
People who take your squads LMG or medic and wont give it up when you ask nicely
People that jsut start speaking to commander without requesting permission to speak or saying what squad they are.

I lolle'd

Logaritm, we all hate it. And second, you are playing on wrong servers. There are great servers with admins playing alot on them making sure everyone gets a good gameplay. Thats really the most importent thing, alteast what I think, for playing PR on a good server and makes sure the game is played as its made for.

Watch out people. These guys on this forum go berserker rage before you even know you're about to think about making subtle complain about any aspect of PR. Check out the previous topic.

I know what you mean, had a few laughs on here about people getting so militant in defence of the mod. Now stop criticising the devs!!!!!

one thing that bothers me is when you get a sqaud together and everyone bolts 4 diffrent ways and doesnt talk to anyone..... also when they just open up on anything that moes and gives your posision away all the time. lol one more as Im typeing...... never points anything out.

I hate it when you get your squad into a transport chopper then the pilot flys high, does a loop, then a fly by past an enemy FOB and APC then lands and gets the whole squad killed, losing the HAT kit and the chopper. What makes it worse is your whole squad re-spawns and the same pilot grabs the only chopper left.
Solution
I ordered my squad to TK the pilot and any of his squad members who tried to pilot the only chopper left so someone else could fly (not my squad member)

I thought the whole idea of a transport chopper is to get squads onto the ground as fast as possible not to show off.

Is it wrong to TK if it means you save an asset and your whole squad?

I hate it when plans you made change and don't allow you to do what you want.

I like it better when it's relating to a video game and not real life

I hate it when you said something earlier in game, then you find yourself saying the same thing in real life.

"What? You're leaving without me?!"
