Hey guys, just wanted to create a topic to discuss what happened on this event.
First of all it was a great mission. It could’ve been improved a bit by including at least some kind of vehicle at OPFOR’s spawn point. There is also no reason for INFOR not to know where the base they’re supposed to defend is. Someone asked me in game if we can move the hostage anywhere we want, and there wasn’t mentioning about this in Event Description. I think it would be unfair if INFOR would be allowed to move the HVT just anywhere, so I said he can’t be moved outside of the "fortified" compound".
Btw very nicely done with fortified compound, simple but effective. If we had a lot more players, I could see maybe one more similar building somewhere close. Then we could restrict movement of HVT to one of those buildings.
Most importantly for me, this event was proof that you can play amazingly epic PvP in A3 even with just 10 (9) players. It would’ve been even better with more players, but even so this event is my favorite so far.
In the first mission, it felt like we were just warming up. I underestimated enemy players and died very early on, even when we had huge advantage over them. What I learned from first round is that if you know the route players are going to take, choose angles which are obscure if they are looking front or sideways. Instead shoot from oblique rear (~135°, ~225°), most often uncovered sector, even if members are covering every alley. I really liked how John cleared rooms, providing example in action for all spectators, just rush in and spray.
The second round was amazing. We started late because we were discussing tactics with [user avatar=“https://assets-cloud.enjin.com/users/9116490/avatar/small.1400145727.png” name=“Price”]9116490[/user] . He had very good plan, placing a guy on overwatch and moving other players through blind spot (north of town). We soon figured that he had problems with radio, nevertheless they moved on. When I reached OP, there was a vehicle with engine running there, got me shit scared. Was the vehicle spawned there like that or did one of INFOR move there?
On that round I can’t figure out where each player INFOR player was. I know Abuk was on lighthouse, John on minaret, and someone on rooftop of building just east of HVT. Where was the fourth player and what happened to him?
On this mission [user avatar=“https://assets-cloud.enjin.com/users/11704860/avatar/small.1478308792.jpeg” name=“John”]11704860[/user] proved to me that you should never give up, even if enemy has a HVT driving with him in the car. It was amazing how I managed to get into the building and out of if without John killing me from minaret, but he got me while moving between buildings in a car at ~20km/h. Oh and and in between, I managed to crash one car because John was scaring the shits out of me while escaping with HVT. I was afraid John would get down from minaret and start moving towards me, so I ran back all the way to HVT building for another car.
John, I need that video, the whole mission!!! I regret for not recording this event.
