What happened to PR?

mcwaffle · 2016-10-06, 19:46

Played a handful of games after a 3 year hiatus in PR. Kids having a teamkill party in main, enemy bmp riding into main.. Squeekers that don't know how to set a rally point creating squads. Ridiculous mic spam pre-game.. I could go on and on. What the hell happened? A few years ago even the few and far between squeekers were well behaved on the servers. PR-TA and [F|H] are absolute shit shows today.

Really ?

I played 4 rounds in FH today, it was pretty good, despite being Insurgency in all of them...
All admins was really fast and responsive to every report

It really depends on the server I suggest playing on HOG or Based (when Its seeded) they both have decent admin teams and will help you have a better experience

I sympathize with OP (noticed the same thing) but I think Jacksonez has it.

Now, if we could play something other than the same five maps...

I've noticed in the past few months alot of new youtubers have started covering pr. Which has led to alot of new kids playing it like any mainline battlefield game. Which has led to problems for the more hardcore and serious players. But this is also a good thing. It shows that games like PR appeal to the 12-17 crowd which is a key market demographic. I've gotten several kids to come play co-op instead because it's alot faster and they like it better.

I keep repeating myself here, but PR co-op is better than deployment, yeah the bots may be annoyingly too accurate, but it's more fun and more forgiving. Perfect for the less hardcore crowd among us.

And would not suggest playing on HOG, because so far two evenings in row experience is pretty bad.
