I'm glad to see that Bravo represented as they should!  Hope you guys had fun.

We went as alpha. But here's how it went down :

Bravo had all the vehicles. As usual all of the comm channels were jacked up. We were stepped every couple of privacy channels so if we were in a building with another squad we stepped all over each other.  Game control was using low power midiland/talk abouts. :-/. Lame.

Communication with our LT was almost non existent. We got told to go to a grid and secure a building first day. So we did. Then we waited. Then we got no updated SITREP from our upper COC. So we continued to wait until lunch. We were told to head back to original FOB so we did. No one there.

 We were close to the enemy FOB in essence. Walked all the way back to out original FOB and ate lunch in the field. Apparently we were the only ones.

After the break we were told to head back out to the enemy's prior FOB. Where we had been originally to start. We were switching sides but we already knew that. So it was a unnecessary walk in the complex. Seriously?

At our original FOB we tried to get a ride from an empty deuce and they said no dice. Not working for alpha this year. WTF?

And shit like this happened allllll day afterwards and the next day. No one knew what was going on anywhere. I'm convinced that most of the players are just fodder for the 'cool guys' that are in JL's circle and some select people from here and there.

It's all good. But I myself will be doing something more constructive next year with my 5-600$ instead of driving in shitty California traffic, dealing with shitty game mechanics and feeling very un satisfied with the experience overall.

It hasn't always been like this. LC10 was probably the best time I've ever had at a John Lu event. But it was only cause I got separated from my squad and went off my own with teammate Art. Then I actually got to see interesting stuff instead of apartment sitting a f'ing day.


John Lu's events have progressively gotten blah. Had more fun at Airsofter1's event out at the NG training facility a few years ago.

So next year they can suck it. Save your money.

 Chris. You aren't even allowed any revelry in your purported bravo win. I heard you turned pussy and went home after your gun went down.  And another thing - when you get shot at an LC event you stop where you get shot and call for a medic. Or wait the 5 minutes. Then head to respawn. Not walk off like you don't care.    All my disdain aside I still follow the game rules.

Ivan, we had the same experience on Bravo with comms. Hell, Jed and I found the scientists 20 minutes before the first evolution started and could not get instruction via radio so we let the them go and held up in the SCC building and turned it into murder trap. We took down close to a half a platoon of Alpha and a whole squad of PMC. We caused so much confusion, that Alpha was killing each other, no where near the battle. Vehicles were near as abundant as you would think either. I spent all weekend hoofin it.

At LCXI we sat in buildings and kkilled the same platoon over and over. This year we were on the assault. Another difference, the last 3 years when I went to rally troops to attack with me, they looked at me with their mouths open. This year, they charged with me. Saturday afternoon I put elements from 3 different platoons together and assaulted the flank we went from the far west of the AO, all the way across to the Alpha FOB in the east. A wide front steam roller. The end of Sunday was nearly the same. Kiley called in the final objective, that was being held by 5 or 6 Hawks. 4th platoon lead elements from the entire company to hammer Alpha. There were over 100 of us verses 20 or so.

All in all Bravo did to Alpha this year what normally happens in reverse.
