I have been a PC gamer longer than most of you have been alive! My first game was PONG which I and my brother built ourselves in the basement of our home in Ontarioa Canada. The year was 1974. My first console was the Atari 2600 followed by what seems a never ending list. My son introduced me to PR about 3 years ago. 0.7X from memory, which at my age doesnt work as well as it once did. We played deployment exclusivly for a couple years. The server we played on was BD GAMING here in Australia. Ping being the issue other servers were undesirable for the format of deployment. I started getting the shits with PR when the seriousness of deployment made the game more stressful than it was fun. BD GAMING and their overly serious nature turned me off and I lost interest and stopped playing. Not long after I returned to the game and decided to give COOP a try. This is when I discovered VG. I quickly discovered that players were helpful, shared tips, tricks and ideas helping me become better at the game. I began having fun again playing PR. I didnt become involved in the website / forum because I felt that I couldnt offer much as I live in Australia and as VG is USA based. I have discovered that my impression is wrong and as such, it my intension to become more involved. Still young at heart even though im 52 cheers Yoda | ||

I've been gunnin on that server countless times when you had been as well. We certainly are an international community, and we play many different games. I also turned to COOP from many crappy PvP experiences, and now, if I roll in PvP, I do it with these guys or not at all. COOP is way more enjoyable - bot's don't talk smack!
