I want a real mil'sim. where you have to occupy an area or POI, with a few hundred people, the place that comes to mind is splat action, get control of one of the towns or something, not go grab a trash bag full of a few spearmint wrappers and pat each other on the a$$.


So you want something like Op Thunder Strike, but with out the mag and camo restrictions?

Kevin, stop trying to be logical, you're on AP. ;)

Sure, but when people say op, i feel like it is going to be all teams playing, when i really am not a fan of teams, i think it is a little overkill

Just because i dont want to only use single shot on an m4 makes me rambo, ok


I think you just agreed with me...And no, not ever touching the semi-auto function on your AEG doesn't make you a Rambo. Wanting to run around and light people up does. MilSim is a game of patience and conserving ammo. Which would you rather have:
a) a single guy to dump a mid-cap on
b) 1 mid-cap mag to use against 5 guys
c) 5 mid-caps to use against 5 guys

Frankly, I would rather have a good firefight between my FT and an OpFor FT than me dumping a good 50 rounds on 1 guy.

Op=Operation. Teams and organization are a necessary part of milsim in my opinion.

1 side of Rambos v. 1 well organized team divided into 5 man FTs.

Who will win?

PLEASE STOP TROLLING.

If you are actually interested in doing some Mil-sim as you claim, then how about you come out to the next PLA training day and get some real training from some military and law enforcement veterans.

Just any FYI, the real military doesn't run around like Rambo. They use fire and maneuver to defeat their enemies, not just running out there with guns blazing.

There are plenty of valid concerns regarding games, however what you bring up is just a crock of shit.

First you are upset that there are too many restrictions and you can't just "blast fools" and want to use your high cap mags, there are plenty of skirmishes that suit your needs.

Then you say you want real mil-sim. Well guess what, that means limiting magazine capacity and making more restrictive gear requirements.

How have you not found anything in the past year that has suited your delicate sensibilities? We've had gear restrictive mil sim events, we've had light hearted skirms, we've had zombie games, a CQC competition.

Please, tell us what you'd like to see if you were able to host a game? Give us some insight so that event promoters can hear your insight and glean some knowledge of what would make airsoft better.

Entertainment Value of this thread has dropped significantly.

There's gonna be teams and individuals there. (thought you wanted a couple hundred players.) People are being assigned to squads and it's a large force on force game about holding objectives. Isn't that what you want?

G-
The best part of you must have ran down the inside of your momma's thighs.


This community obviously doesn't have what you're looking for.
Please look elsewhere.

You're almost 18.
You've got it all figured out.
Join the military where you can experience true "mil-sim" muzzle velocities.
Oh yeah.. but you don't like teams/teamwork. You likely won't fit in well with the military either.
Good luck with yourself. I think you're going to need it.

So you don't want mil-sim. Let me tell you, there is no "I" in combat or any part of the military for that matter.

Wait, wait, wait...Not a big fan of teams, G? That turns the entire game into a free-for-all, thus losing MilSim qualities.
