I will work on that, too. My original plan was to have a weekly article describing a different part of the gameplay in Project Reality and then have a story to go along with it, but I threw that out the window just because of how much work I would have to do for each article each week, which would not be pretty on top of the average 3 essays I have to write for school each week.

The ways I described leave me plenty of room to do school work and the articles. Doing a in depth look into the manual would be relatively easy for me to do in extra time not doing school work or article work.

Keep the idea coming guys.



I am gonna need to take a shit ton of screens, too...

I can either place a few of my most mind numbing experiences in here, the way they happened or I can flesh them out and let DC use them as substance for his ideas for the PR article. What say you all?? Be advised, I've been around here on the PR scene for quite some time and I have some rather memorable incidents.

It's going to be like a letter written home to a loved one after engagements and stuff. Maybe have multiple letters of the same engagement from different perspectives.

The two titles for it I have so far are:
Letters from the Front
Stories from the Front Lines

The way I am gonna do it if I do it the letters way is it will be formatted just like a personal letter and it will have military style censoring that takes out like forces names, locations, names of squad mates, things like that.

If I do it just the stories way it is going to be like a spoken narrative written down.

I haven't finalized it yet, and I am going to write a couple before I decide so that I have some overflow and don't have to worry about them all too much.

If I do it the letter way I will let you guys know.

Potemkite's first time playing tonight was hilarious, he was shooting down enemy helicopters left and right on the MEC team and then he got kicked and came back in on the other team, he racked up 20 kills and killed at least 8 helicopters by the time he was kicked though :P

Will probably be writing about this one too :P

I will have a lot of next week free from school obligations, so I will be able to do a lot of writing. Can't this weekend, family stuff. Will have a note pad with me at times though to write down spurts and ideas.

Oh god that was fun. I just opened up with both guns and BAM! Chopper down. Took down 1 cobra, 3 little birds and two Heuys. Oh GOD was that a fucking blast.

Hmm...you do realize if this does become a regular weekly thang, then we'll need to publish articles on 3 days instead of 2.

First, lets see what kind of material we get going. But if we do....God help us editors.

I know. I figured it was part of the reason you were having Deliverance flashbacks.
