Which side do you prefer on Insurgency?

Which team do you prefer playing as on Insurgency maps and why?

Which side provides a more fun\memorable experience?

Cheers

I would say a mixture, I've had equally good rounds as insurgents, defending a cache against seemingly endless hordes of US soldiers on Fallujah. Meanwhile, assaulting a cache on the edge of the city and having a fire fight, over open ground, moving clearing, .50 cal support, RPGs flying everywhere on Basrah as Brit. Those two stories stand out as my best rounds as each.

Overall, I would say, when people go Insurgent, they go.. oh look... no tickets... LAL NOOB STARTING.... 5....4...3....2...1! And start behaving all retarded, meanwhile, if your on the US, maybe 60% of the time, it's better as BLUFOR.

BLUFOR, because they have the armor and I´m a armor whore.

Fallujah - US
Archer - US
Basrah - Either
Korengal - Either
Ramiel - Either
Karbala - Insurgents

All due to balance/fun.

Insurgents all the way, its just not so stressfull to play I think.
You just take sapper, place your IED and wait

, or what Im doing actually quite often on Chicago Insurgency is going Commander.

Playing as Ins feels just like, dunno, you think you can do anything cuz like Scot mentioned you have no ticketloss, so why not just make a senseless suicideattack which maybe costs the BLU some tickets.

The only thing I absolutly HATE is beeing shot at ... sometimes I feel like the Blues as doing it for porpose just hurting me and not killing ... its so damn annoying if get hit once (you havent even an idea from where which is annoying as well) and you have to bleed to death slowly cuz noone takes ever Civi, and even if theres a Civi is on the other side of the map.

Apart from that Ins are my favourite faction

fallujah=US
Basrah= Either
Karbala= I leave the server
Archer= US
Korengal= INS
Ramiel= I leave the server

Depends on the map, i enjoy playing both sides, ramiel is the only map where i say, i really prefer playing one side (Blufor) but often playing Taliban with AK's can be great fun, especially with the little Ak74U's. I enjoy playing as Brits on Al'Basrah because of the fun the lynx can be.
I think their should be a "Not fussed/Either or" option on the poll, as i personally am not fussed most of the time, but maybe it's just me.

How about a both-option?

I like to play both, the armored and scoped Blufors and the triggerhappy and insidious insurgents.

Ghost1800 · 06-09-2009, 01:54 PM

Whichever side I'm put on. Almost everybody wants to be BLUFOR so if I'm put on insurgents I'll just steal BLUFOR kits.

Sometimes I feel like being the underdog and staging ambushes. Sometimes I'll feel like joining a well coordinated US squad and getting some headshots with the aimpoint :P
