PR > BF2!

I don't rave about it in servers, I have better things to do, like pop your head off on my Private ranked account. PRs intense action, gunfighting, little bird piloting (damn tkers!) and style of play I love, much better than BF2s in my opinion.

It is called PROJECT REALITY for a reason:

- You don't get a crosshair in real life, so you don't get one in PR.
- When you die in real life, you are read. In PR, there is a long wait ahead of you.

etc etc. PR is all teamwork based, full 6/6 squads w/ voip gives it immense action.

I went back to BF2 to try it out and I was TK'd several times for jets, run over by teammates etc. Apart from Little Birds, I rarely get TK'd in PR unless there is a newbie on the server who can't distinguish enemies from friendlies (GBH, I did it too!) - I mainly just pilot all round now, transporting my team to key positions.

I'll stick with vanilla, sf, and af thank you very much. Besides, having some egomaniac tell you their mod is better just proves the point that they are desperate for more people.

And yeah, like I said, teamwork in BF2 pubs sucks, we all know that.
I'm just saying that you can find the EXACT same teamwork that's in PR in BF2, because this seems to be the main argument here...

Simply join a good clan and you've got instant PR teamwork right there.

I just hate the spawn points thing in it and I hate having to request a kit just to drive a humvee or gun a tank.

I think that PR's different gameplay provides a whole larger scale of teamwork than vBF2.
Of course there is teamwork in BF2 clans (or on very rare occasions without joining clans), but the vBF2 gameplay offers less teamwork than PR.

Arguing about which one is better is pointless because noone will persuade the other. If someone likes more intense arcade style gameplay, then its vBF2, who likes a more realistic, sneakier, etc gameplay then its PR.(Now I like PR more)
It's like comparing lets say vanilla and chocolate ice cream and saying one is better than the other.

I think you dont need crewman kit to drive hummvee/vodnik, but maybe im wrong.

^^^^funny indeed - B.O.B, LOL

On topic: IMO it's just the way it is that people come up with new and in their opinion better ways. Some time ago a bunch of BF-players started this whole: <If you use unlock you're a n..b> thing. Now some feel superior playing PR and have to tell the rest of the world. Shouldn't bother those sticking to Vanilla.
It's all based on opinion anyway. Some like to snipe, some don't. Just do it.

Maybe because they "think" they are playing a realistic game or something like that.

i got bored with it really fast. the need to depend on teamwork is annoying considering how many people suck. raping spawn cars is fun tho.

I've played PR quite a lot and all I can say is that the most leet high and mighty PR players suck big time. PR community consists of players who could never survive in vanilla so they created their own environment where everything is not about aggressive fragging, so they can use teamwork as an excuse to suck. Truth is that teamwork is overrated, if one player just comes and kills your squad how much did the teamwork tactics actually help? Playing PR alone pretty much kills CQB skills so those who never play vanilla plain suck at it, and they just blame bad hit detection, prone spamming and all unrealistic things in BF2 while demanding longer encountering distances since they might be more realistic.

PR used to be good in early days but now it's gone totally wrong. Old players blame noobs to be destroying the mod, but the truth is contrary. PR is even more about fragging and aggressive playing than vanilla, but in PR you won't live without brains, unlike vanilla where you can just run'n'gun. In PR you can do that, you need to be clever not to die fast, after that it's even more entertaning as individual, not as a squad.

Most players think they are better because they use real-life tactics and so on, but as someone mentioned this is a game ffs, nothing to do with real life, even if it says Project Reality. PR community is very self-centered, thinking it's the best thing that happened to BF2. But PR is a nice mod, just getting a little too easy.
