@@airpods3198 I started in PR like 12-15 years ago. Now I play a lot of squad but it looks like time to give this another go. I’m really proud to see they’re still going strong. It was amazing what they were doing when this was all brand new.
Absolutely the definitive way to get into the game in the current zeitgiest. Kind a gave me nostalgic vibes for when I didn't know most of the stuff outlined here and had to learn it or be taught. If you are a blueberry (new to PR (the term is also used to reffer to players outside of your squad)) you should feel blessed that this video exists. I would rewatch it multiple times if I were you.
Its nice to have an up to date tutorial for new players. The good this will do for excited newbies will hopefully keep them looking forward to learning and playing more. Thanks, Unicode!
This is really great timing considering the increase of player numbers. Lots of people (like me) dont feel like reading the entire manual, because lets be honest, its absolutely massive. Although reading it would have made my first few months playing pr a lot easier, I eventually figured everything by the help of some long-time players and trial and error. Pretty informative overrall, and Im glad you made this because a lot of tutorials are outdated by now. I read the manual for the first time like 2 weeks ago after an year of playing, and goddamn I wish I read it earlier. Also, can you make another tribute video once the tutorials are through? Yours are really good
Really? Did player number increased from more than one server? If yes, I will go back to the game. Just give a true answer please, are their more than one full server now?
@@PR-Unicode Last time when I played, there were only 3 servers, 2 of which are barely have 30+ players. And only one full server. Is it still like this?
Thats actually pretty smart. I noticed allot of players deplyoing these few weeks. Its good for noob training, plus you will prevent them from leaving out of small brain cells
What an incredible and informative video. I grew up playing BF2, but PR was always too daunting for me. Years later, I've been getting into Squad and had no idea PR was still going. Definitely going to give it a try.
Some extra tips 1.Logis can be used as transports and you should not feel bad for leaving it In the middle of no ware (a another squad will deal with it) 2.all four wheel vehicles can take two mines, so if you in a pinch or need to mine clear just drive over them 3. Spread does not affect the first shot of any weapon. 4. Do not revive team mates it loses you tickets. 5. Pick up enemy kits to confuse enemy’s. 6. Always one man tanks and apcs to prevent two people from dieing when your tanks get blown up. 7. Do not join a squad you work better as a lone wolf. 8. The sniper kit is OP always take the sniper kit any chance you get. 9.remember reloading is always faster than switching to your pistol. 10. Have fun :)
I used to play BR for couple of years back in early version(0.357 as when I joined as I remember) It is good to see people still play and love it. And it's amazing how far BR has been based on BF2 engine
honestly i was expecting to find no new content on BF2:PR, but im positively surprised! Its now standalone and full of servers and people still playing! thats dope! i was watching videos of the new Arma thats going out and decided to check on this gem ! good video!
Excellent work, Unicode. Hopefully this is more helpful for the newbloods than having the veterans joking about if they "have read the manual". Just up to the rest of us in the community to help them stick around with those "wow" experiences that hooked us. Still more applicable than any advice Grump gives-
Great video and great pacing for the amount of information! Maybe a part 2 with other more specific role based and gameplay tips for some of these newer players would be helpful too! There are so many small details that you might not notice as a newer player like differences in ammunition, the new gunning mechanics ect that kinda do need an explanation because not every squad leader is competent though to explain it to all these new players.
Well done making this video. It's better to teach new players how to play & what the game is about in simple words, rather than kicking, banning or even making fun of them for not understanding the game and shrinking the player count. Because "nEw pLaYerS dOn'T kNoW hoW to pLaY"
That is an excelent video I learned so much in no time (felt like 5 minutes!). I used to have the game but only played 3 or so battles. You made me want to go back to it thanks.
very informative for the new players instead of just asking in all chat on how to do this and that you should make a mumble tutorial as well because most of the mumble vids are 10yrs old
I used to play PR back during my early years of college...gosh that was nearly a decade ago now! I'd love to jump back in, but I was always nervous going in without a friend to play with (just how I am in any game). As I remember it, you'd play for 4-5 hours (so...3-5 games) and it'd usually be two shitty games, or games where one side just steamrolls the other for every good game. But maaan those good games were so damn fun. Sometimes an OBJ might change hands several times as you doggedly fight over a little strip of land.
this was actually helpfull ,i tried to play a game earlier (i was trying in offline mod since im new)and when i loaded in i was confused since i did not undestand the controls so thanks for the quide on what to do in game
holy, i started playing this mod when i was 14 (i am 26 now), project reality beta 0.4 till 1.0, then a long csgo phase + some squad. its amazing that this game is still alive .
Do people still play the PR Arma III Mod, had a blast in that game, what feels like a lifetime ago now, hate getting old. To be fair though these games have all age groups in them and you will have a blast especially when you are watching a group of real squaddies who use these games to hang out and stay in touch with their old squad mates. Their lingo is a joy to behold.
Nowadays I tend to stick to Squad since it's overall better, but I absolutely loved BF2 and Project Reality, played since day one. I wonder if it's possible to do something similar with BC2, it was by far my favorite Battlefield after BF2, god I miss that game...
The insurgency mode in this game was probably the most fun I have ever had playing online. Every screaming Allah Ahkbar when the enemy gets near was peak trolling
Thank you, I know a bit about being infantry but when I was ordered to drop crates using the logi I didn't know how so I let another player do it for me
Very useful, Elsa is grateful. Sometimes I have problems with following orders, I'm having a hearing issue and the combat doctrine is extremely different from what I had in Pakistan SSG, so I always got kicked from LAV squads. But with this, I know generally what to do.
This is great. I'm sure this took a 12 hours at least to collect footage, go through and edit. We need more of this. Going into advanced things, 1 man per piece of cover, in view of each other to save each other, grenade spread. Advanced tactic demonstrations of full squads camouflaged, playing dead or up in trees 1 man per tree. Showing how to play the game. Like how people sit on the cache building instead of getting one man per building to be the long and close range booby trap to enemy.
@@ismaelassassin Recording voice and footage - over 20 hours, editing - over 20 hours. Planning, rendering, writing, discussing, collecting clips - quite a few hours surely. Probably around 60-70 hours in total Edit: actually less because the projects were open in the background most of the time lol now that I think of it, cut that in half
HOG is probably the best choice for you in terms of ping, note that PR for some reason can be played with high ping unlike other games, 150+ ping is perfectly playable without stutters
A truly exceptional work. This is going to be watched by thousands.
Now it's going to be even harder to get into HOG.
I just watched this and I got hooked just by watching this vid lol. looks promising xD
How about millions
There are dozens of us! dozens!
True I'm downloading the game right now
I knew Squad was based off this, but I didn't realize they were this similar. Cool to see that it's still being played and supported.
Having 200 hrs in squad and starting PR about 5 months ago, PR is a farrrr superior game in almost every way. It's ruined squad for me tbh lol

both schiety games... to much rules limiting the players. its like arma but for the handicapped.
@@mitri5389 someone doesnt like team based games
@@MadsenTheDane yeah "team based"
I've been playing battlefield 2 like crazy and am so happy I found this! Holy smokes its a dream come true

Stellar tutorial, concise and straight to the point. Thank you very much for making this!
No problem, and nice Firzen pfp!
Stumbled upon this in the Squad Reddit. I did t realize so many people were still on prbf2, that’s awesome to see
Love how concise while still complete it is! Thanks this guide.
Outstanding presentation. Best Guide ever.Using the original BF2 music in the backround was a good idea, i enjoy it very much.
Nice work! Also love the original BF2 menu music, brings back a lot of memories
That BF2 music gives me a nostalgia kick. Good video!

Those commands and external resources really came in clutch, my dude
Finally got around to checking the video out. Awesome work! Precisely what a lot of new players would need to get up to speed on the basics!!
Very nice video, thank you! Covered what needed to be without going into unnecessary detail. Great for a Squad player like myself just getting into PR
I,be been playing for like a month and this was still surprisingly helpful thanks
Glad to hear that!

I'm not a new player but this is the best tutorial video I ever seen for PR

great adding that bf2 theme , my god it's so nostalgic.

Thanks for this guide.
I used to be good at using HAT kit but haven't been playing the game to the point that I lost touch with my fav kit...
Nice vid man. PLayed for years, still learned a lil bit, esp about servers but also that deviation indicator! Great for new players.
In depth as hell, lovely video super informative THX for the effort
I just downloaded the game, I think this will definitely help.
Unicode: I'm going to explain everything about Project Reality BF2
UA-cam: This video is obviously about the hit game "Squad"
Amazing summary. I wish I had something like this at my disposal when I started playing.
Good tutorial! We really needed this for all the noobs in this game
good heckin' job fella. You have a silky smooth voice.
"That's about it for the basics" - I burst out laughing. I never played "Project Reality" :)
very informative for the new players instead of just asking in all chat on how to do this and that you should make a mumble tutorial as well because most of the mumble vids are 10yrs old
This man is doing god’s work. It is absolutely vital to teach new players instead of just getting angry at them.
Simple and easy to understand, thanks for the tutorial video

Looks so cool
Can't wait to play as the taliban
Very informative,
With this video i'd hope for more better players in a team while fighting the veteran's team
