Huge day! Monumental even! After, who knows how long, we played a bit. And not just me, Robi and Viktor, but even Bea. It went really well!
First, we visited Takistan for some DRO. Bea wanted to play Clear Area, so that's what we did. We tried to insert via helicopter, but that was a failure. Bea survived the crash, and we quickly rushed back to her position with a bare Hunter. We stood our ground against the locals and slowly made our way to the AO. We all ran into ammunition shortage, but we figured it out. 🗲The Hunter had some ammo that was good for Bea🗲, and for Viktor, I called in a Supply Drop. And by that, I mean literally, the built-in Support feature of DRO. They dropped an actual Arsenal for us. Even after hundreds of hours, we learn something new. Anyway, that's when Robi joined us. Late Joining in DRO is wonky, but it was alright. He spawned where we inserted from. For some reason, he can't see certain vehicles, like the desert camo version of the Hunter. I wonder if it's a mod problem. We left the Hunter behind because of this, but we found a weird Repair truck and a Mad Max Hilux. We cleared the second AO quickly, and we all agreed that we should play another round.
Round two was in Zagrabad. It was a lot messier mission. Robi was supporting us from the sky with a Blackfoot, and we were scrambling with a sketchy Prowler insertion. Despite the shit show, we were doing well. Viktor was sniping and me and Bea worked our way into the belly of the beast. Early on we neutralized a vehicle armed with an SPG-9 and that what we tried to use for our escape. That's when shit went wrong. We were barraged by explosive shots, both Mortars and a rocket. A rocket that not only killed Bea and Viktor, but straight up crashed them. Meta-gaming fucking AI... Robi picked me up with the Blackfoot, and before we Extracted, Bea and Viktor could join back in to redeem the situation with their own escape.
