WHAT IS IT? Playerunknown's Battlegrounds might make some of you skeptical but I wouldn't be posting a topic if I wasn't enjoying the game. It's a battle royale-style shooter in the same vein as H1Z1 King of the Hill where the goal is to be the last person standing against up to 99 other players, 49 other duo teams, or 24 other squad teams. You air-drop onto an island that's 8x8km large and, when you land, you scramble to pick up whatever weapons and equipment you're able to come across. You not only have to contend against other players, but you also have to outrun a blue circle, represented by an electric field that gradually closes in to a specific, randomized position on the map, as well as completely random "red zones" that are completely carpet bombed. The game itself costs US$29.99 or your regional equivalent. It has matchmaking set up for two variations of each of the three modes - Solo, which is you up against 99 other players; Duo, which is yourself and a buddy against 49 other duo teams; and Squad, which is you and three other team-mates against 24 other teams. The variations are the First Person Perspective modes which are currently going through beta but are currently active for each of the three game types. The game also features Custom servers, too. There's some character customization, which is where some controversy needs to be addressed - the game does have microtransactions in the form of loot crates that you have to buy keys for (a la Counterstrike: Global Offensive), plus you can buy random crates and clothing items on the Steam Marketplace. It affects appearance, and then it further affects your visibility in-game. I've been playing this game off-and-on for the past few months and recently started playing it a bit more, considering I have more free time while I'm in between jobs. While the game's intensely fun alone, I would like to see about getting a squad (4 people) together that would either like to try the game out, or play it steadily with me. I'm playing this game with the intention to stream each session.

You've got a bunch of us open to helping out whenever we're not busy. Just don't give in to Fix's false promises of the Lalafel Master Race. It's all lies.

Welcome!

Here's mine, updated as of today.

I didn't vote for you.

Only slightly disappointed that I never received a single response of interest nor did I have anyone join in tonight when the event was scheduled and put on the Calender, aside from one person who Xoza referred to me.

Tonight is the night! If anyone is still interested in playing, please send me a friend request at CaptainSharkFin on Origin.

It begins! 40 GB Download, Install size is 48 GB.

Early Enlisters are go! If you're still interested in playing with Ordo on PC, please send me your Origin tags so I can get something organized. Closer to official release on October 21, I'll want to set up a separate Teamspeak channel.

The review embargo is up. Gamespot's provided the first review of the game. TL;DR -- 9/10

Time to update! It's been three years since my post. I've moved up to having built my own computer as of February 2015 and slowly been upgrading it ever since. I moved everything into a brand new case as of about a month ago.

The time is upon us to go back to the Great War -- and experience one of the most devastating, brutal, and deadliest conflicts in human history. Early Enlisters who purchased the Digital Deluxe edition of Battlefield 1 will be able to get into the game three days prior to its release on October 21, 2016. This topic is being used to generate interest from those who are looking/hoping to participate in Ordo operations in DICE's newest offering. Will there be a group playing on October 18 with the Early Enlister program? How many will be playing on launch day on the 21st? If you are, please feel free to post in this topic with your Origin username. For those interested in buying it, Green Man Gaming sells it at 22% reduced price. The only caveat is that this is the standard digital version and will not allow for early access to the game on the 18th. Eventually if there's enough interest and when I'm financially capable I plan on renting a dedicated server in our name. Have some trailers to get hyped. You can also play as a pigeon. And here's LevelCapGaming with a quick assessment of BF1's new game mode, Operations.

We actually do have a server up for this?
