Bit of a soft shitshow today
Visited a site for the first time, which had been running a good couple of years, but had to move to fresh ground last year.
Operated by an established retailer in Scotland, so they kinda should know better imo.
First game was a “warm up” which was a kind of Capture the Flag
Defenders had two lives , attackers had infinite
First game took the attackers just under an hour to achieve the objective 🙄
Swapped ends and we did it in 16 minutes
This game should have had a time limit to apply pressure to the attackers, and not just an “it’s over when they do it” attitude which was what I got from the marshal when I asked how long this had still to run.
Went back to safe zone to bomb up after that, to get told we would have lunch early.
So I’d defended from a slow attacking team for almost an hour in zero deg temps, then a 16 min warm up, to sit around for an hour having lunch!
I was effing freezing
Then a “flip the barrel” game
both times we won that in roughly 8-9 minutes
To get taken to the safe zone again and stand about for 15-20 mins, before being taken back up to the same area for another mix up of a game.
Sadly, I’d had enough and just said cheerio to my crew and made the hour drive home.
No facilities to speak of
no toilet that I could see (but I can pee behind a tree, so not a biggy)
Just a gazebo and a camp table for booking in and buying ammo/pyro
My Ghk m4 just sucked ass in the cold, even using red gas so it got replaced with my backup aeg for the other games.
It was a free game, to entice new players to start coming
Thanks for the taster
I’ll not be back 😂
