Class v. Class event on Monday

[Fl!p]

So we ECs have a number of new events we are attempting to experiment with, and this was our first one. How did you guys like it, or did you not like it? If you didn't like it, why?

I know what the first response will be and I will just respond to it here.

It wasn't hardcore

We realize that many members in this community prefer HC over normal and will be mixing up the game modes during events. Some will be Normal and some will be HC. But please do not let the game mode stop you from attending events. Events are made to be fun and without the attendance of our members they cannot be.

Other than it not being HC it was fun. But as I said yesterday too short. I know you/someone said 90-120 mins, but 50 kills were barely 80 mins, and after the time spent messing around getting the right maps, etc, actual playing time was maybe 60 mins. Perhaps have the kills in the 70-100 range. Or have a 5th map where it's an open class.

As for the actual event, it being class limiting, it's brutal being the recon or engineers in normal mode. I've always played HC just because those servers are usually fuller... however I've never really noticed the difference until lastnight.

That being said, it was still a blast, and I'd partisipate again even if it was in normal.

thanks for putting it on, and hopefully we have more events regularly.

Liked it, learned some things in it for next time, but really had a lot of fun.

Sorry I wasn’t able to attend; I had Microphone issues and had servers issue at work to deal with. I will try to make it to next one troop.

Don ‘take this the wrong way my friend, or nor do I want to turn this into a debate between Hardcore verses Normal game modes.
But for myself I like the normal game modes over hardcore modes. Well it’s like you mention VeRtAg0 “Events are made for fun” which I truly believe in my friend, but for me I play a lot normal modes most of all the time, and since I am not use to playing in HC modes match that’s why I normally attend normal modes, how is it a person going to enjoy the evening at events, if he or she is no help to the teammates getting wasted all the time during a Hardcore game because of his or hers lack of experience on playing HC matches? I all it doesn’t frustration builds in the team.
Now with that being said many may debate it with me, like telling me to play on more HC modes games. Which I would say them why? The reason I bought BC 2 game is to have fun playing and enjoy playing my games. When I stop enjoying the games it times to give it up I generally say and move on. Asking someone to show up and play on modes they don’t prefer for hour is bad. It’s need to and always volunteer base. If someone chose to show up for an event mode they hate and prefer to spend an hour getting the crap beat out of them that is their chose.

Now my view many folks may not agree with, understand this is just my opinion and mine alone on why I don’t attend lot hardcore mode events. Any retaliation for me speaking my views should be directed to me only.
btw like the timelines and keep the events going. Hopefully see you on the Battlefield next time.

Honestly, it was perfect. I usually have to be off by eight, so I pushed it a little, but for a Monday night event it was a great experience and had a perfect time!

It was great, I was really enjoying it before my comp crashed
