Sacarathe Posted June 19, 2017 Posted June 19, 2017 I'm often tempted not to take one into the gamezone, but never not bring one.

Head Moderator Jedi_Master Posted June 20, 2017 Head Moderator Posted June 20, 2017 I normally have 3 on me. Try to use light as little as possible in the basement, do not want to give location away. Hate getting backlit by team behind me but there are times you want to go bright and illuminate something/someone. I usually put a light on when hit and am walking back to the respawn to show I am out, making sure that I do not shine it at faces (another annoying habit some players have as they bimble around).
Supporters SeniorSpaz87 Posted June 21, 2017 Supporters Posted June 21, 2017 I will have three lights that I will be using there as well. I keep a small Safariland RRL on my helmet for either light (haha, puns) illumination or for when im dead (dead man on light has saved me a few times). I also have a Surefire XC-1 light on my mk23 and a Veridian light/laser combo for my M&P. If I was was to use a primary gun I would also have a Powertac e5 (aka the superlight I use at The Mall to suppress corridors just by shining it down them haha). I dont use them too often, often only long enough to confirm the unlucky guy I just snuck up on is indeed an enemy!
Sacarathe Posted June 21, 2017 Posted June 21, 2017 At my last game I had a green filter and ran around screaming "have some green bitches" whenever I found yellow team. Amusing to me, but never bright enough.
Mostly Retired Moderators L3wisD Posted June 21, 2017 Mostly Retired Moderators Posted June 21, 2017 I might have to come on my own, my two buddies can't make it. Never been on my own before! If you see a lonely soul in the safe zone come and say hello!

Seems like most of the people there will be forum people. And I've gone alone just about very time. You'll be fine.
Supporters Prisce Posted June 21, 2017 Supporters Posted June 21, 2017 Just a quick one, we are coming on Saturday, booked and everything, it's our first time, just wondering what parking is like? Is it height restricted? Limited spaces? Got a tall car and don't want to be stuck not able to get in! Thanks in advance.

Parking won't be an issue as not so many people are coming, I don't think there will be an issue with height either. Can be a bit tight in the parking area though at times
Mostly Retired Moderators L3wisD Posted June 21, 2017 Mostly Retired Moderators Posted June 21, 2017 Aye get there early to ensure easy parking manoeuvres. Otherwise it's a bit like this:
Supporters Prisce Posted June 21, 2017 Supporters Posted June 21, 2017 Yeah, deciding wether to bring the battleship or use the ole work van... Battleship is about 7'6 tall... Hence why I asked about the height restriction. Got a long way to travel, we shall be setting off about 3:30... Hopefully get there early enough!
Head Moderator Jedi_Master Posted June 21, 2017 Head Moderator Posted June 21, 2017 The parking spaces are very tight, and my parking sensor scream like crazy. I normally get any passengers to exit the vehicle before I attempt to get into the space because often only just room to open one door. I put all the kit in the boot for easier access. If you do arrive early, you can always kill some time in the A2 airsoft shop which is a 5 minute walk away.
Mostly Retired Moderators L3wisD Posted June 21, 2017 Mostly Retired Moderators Posted June 21, 2017 Yeah it's very much "Get as close to the concrete post on the left as possible" Usually have to fold the mirrors in before I get into the car park.
Head Moderator Jedi_Master Posted June 21, 2017 Head Moderator Posted June 21, 2017 Friends say "See that you have been to The Mall again". I reply "Yes, how did you know?" And their response is "You have some new scratches on the doors, scrapes on the alloys, and rubbed tyres"
Mostly Retired Moderators L3wisD Posted June 21, 2017 Mostly Retired Moderators Posted June 21, 2017 And there'll be a new dent on your door with some extra paint in a different colour...

I will be early but will kill time by having an afternoon snooze in my air conditioned room or having a nice cold drink at the bar before setting out on the long journey round the corner to the mall.

Mostly Retired Moderators L3wisD Posted June 23, 2017 Mostly Retired Moderators Posted June 23, 2017 Sorry to be a fanny, but I'm not going to know if I can make this for sure until tomorrow. What's the chances of walking on? Or is it pre-book only?
