    I Agree and also disagree with Captain Hart and I agree with Cole both of you have great and valid points.

    I have done milsim since 2013, i do it cus i like it and it brings back some good memories.

    Now the big reason for why i do milsim is beacuse its fun to play under some structural and tactics either if its under SF or regular combined arms, also i use milsim and gaming as my escape from IRL. So spending couples of hours or a day doing milsim to escape from what ever your profession is or what you do in life to have some fun under structur and tactics. I also understand that CS, Company, Team HQ's cant and will never be perfect, the main thing we are here is to have fun right??

    Now to the latest topic here the FTX cycle.
    So by adding classroom ftx, being judge and graded on a game is pushing it towards doing realism more over fun.

    as some one That is a chef and that get judge on everything you do and make is really stressful, and the coming home to play something i think is fun and my escape from being judge 12/5 every week and then comes home and see that you are now being put in a class and graded in a game  is rubbing me the wrong way.

    Yes this i my opinion on it.

     

    Im not leaving only because of this FTX/announcment.

    SInce i came back their have been issues here and there, some have been handled great and some i disagree with.

    I the reason im leaving is mostly burnt out  of milsim and most likly have to find something else fun.

     

    I still believe this unit is great and will continue to be great the future, but it might not be for me any more.

    There will allways be disagreements, conflict, drama and thats how it is.

     

     Im Putting my retirement on hold because i 100% agree with @CW2 Waller  and wait until i get a response for what i have sent up COC.
