Since this is I think my third time on CIA co-op evenings, I will give my first impressions.
I like the professional attitude on how to approach each mission and I very much enjoy the radio channels. I love the immersion that I get in this game, especially when you can't always be brought back up and die.
I like how everyone is welcomed and treated respectfully when asking beginner questions like myself. I am grateful for the patience.
I've noticed that once a leader dies, things start falling apart consistently. I suggest perhaps beforehand make someone second in rank in each squad to take over once that happens. Might make the transition of command easier in the thick of it and more professional.
I would like to lead myself when the opportunity arises. I work well under stress and I have decent tactical insight. For now if I am honest I would first like to get more comfortable playing ARMAIII itself, since I still struggle with controls. Once I can orient faster and no longer need to think on which keys to press, I will gladly volunteer. And if shit goes south, tell me so that I may learn!
On the missions:
I liked them all, even the ones that didn't get to start. I quite honestly can try something again 100 times so long as I enjoy the game-play, and so far I do!
For now I am mostly taking everything in, and trying to follow the leaders as they order and navigate. I am mostly trying every time to do the same thing on my own map and see how fast I am. I notice that I am quite a bit slower than this insane guy 'Variable' who always seems to know where we are (Any help on how I can improve and navigate faster is welcome!)
Before you can lead you must learn how to follow so that is what I am doing! And perhaps one day, if you guys would have it, I'll give it a shot
Thanks for the fun times, hopefully my job allows me to join again soon.
