Had a lot of fun on the 1st game, having objectives is much more fun than run and gun. I only played the 2nd game for a bit before I went to hydrate and reload. 1 thing I think could of been better is for the player side of things. At the briefings you guys need to shut up and listen to the rules, objectives and what ever the host has to announce before the game starts. People bitch because the noob did this and the noob did that. But honestly it being their 1st, 2nd game, they need to hear and pay attention to what the host has to say. That way maybe people new to the game wont make as many troubling mistakes out in the field. Be polite when in a briefing give your full attention. Too SFOD a bull horn or PA would really help out with that. Thanks for another great day! Thanks to Brad at Spy-Ops for the great deal on the .28 Killer bee's

Had lots of fun, only played the first game but it was nearly overwhelming with adrenaline for a first timer's game. Very well run, you forget that it's at somebody's house. Only problem I encountered was on on of the buildings on the "front" of the city (if you were on civie). There's like a slide/plank going from one building to another and it's extremely slippery and wobbly. In addition the later for the connecting building is nonexistant so the only way out is to jump out of the building. No biggy, I fell through the floor at a similar building at Lonewolf Paintball, so it's all good.

Well The game was alright. I especially loved our epic ride home, through a tornado... Before I pulled in a church parking lot down the road, I/my explorer was struck with a medium sized tree. Afterwords, we were trailed onto a wild goose chase all around the city, in parts of Michigan I never even knew existed. But like I said, the game was alright but also could have been better. It was epic, also seeing that the tree hit my side of the window. Long story short, I shat myself.

Yea, that drive home was crazy. Considering this was my first game, I thought it was good. I, along with most others, was pouring sweat because of the heat, the game was fun and i can't wait to play more games.

For fuck's sake kids, keep your fucking goggles on while you are inside the playing field!

Despite the fact that we were rained out, this was a very fun game and I'm really glad I made it out to this one.
My fellow civilian team mates really seemed to have it together during that first game, and we pulled off one hell of an operation.
There was some cheating going on, but that is to be expected when you have a bunch of immature eighth graders running around with toy guns.
Mega Kudos to SFOD and everybody else who helped out putting this game on today.
Thanks a lot guys.

So this weekend, my brand new $1400 laptop was stolen (don't worry not at the field, at Mosin's house), and my brand new PTW was down. So needless to say I was sad/angry/yeah you know how I get. Anyways, I got to bust out the new SCAR-L and really have a good time the first game. There was a lot of good communication and team work going on for that first game. Also, Psychosis, I thank you so much for doing what I thought for sure nobody else would do. Not giving away my position when I shot you and then took out the rest of your team in the back of the city at the very beginning was awesome. Kudos to you. And thanks to Seven, for letting my go Rambo style for a little bit with his M4 while he ran in some gold. The heat was killer, but was definitely a good time. It really tested my endurance and definitely pushed me to the edge. I too enjoyed the rain, and had fun laughing as everyone ran for the barn like the world was going to end Overall, was pretty good. Normal not calling of the hits... the most frustrating when I shot someone 4 times, blatantly, then yelled at him, and he told me he was on my team, and then he didn't call out.... I mean yes, it was Ready, Fire, Aim on my part, but honestly, you don't belong back on the airsoft field, any hit counts and someone from SpyOps should know better. Shame on you.

I think the 3+ man respawn was the best respawn system ever!

Tex, SFOD announced that friendly fire hits didn't count today. They were trying to combat the usual friendly fire complaints that they get. Now, I think having more stringent uniform requirements would accomplish that better, but I think they needed a solution that was more on the fly today.

All I have to say is it was just like Op: Bitchen Cold except it was hot out. That tornado thing was interesting to say the least, very interesting.

Knief, my issue was that he was shot 4 times and did not know who shot him until I yelled (I waited a good 3 or 4 seconds between each shot, so he had plenty of time to call it). And yes, I'm positive I hit him... white bb's on black camo... pretty easy to see, I have nothing else to say. I even happened to be right next to where the enemy team was so it's not like he was shot from behind. As for not counting friendly fire, I thought that was a joke. That just seems like a way of teaching people to cheat.

Yeah I witnessed a lot of friendly fire because people weren't exactly sure what the other team was wearing. Also to what Psychosis said - there was a total disregard for that rule, as soon as many got to the little tent they whipped off the goggles. It was kind of surprising that people have taken their vision for granted. If someone gets shot in the eye...that's not going to look very good for SFOD or airsoft as a whole.

Ah, gotcha. I agree about not counting friendly fire. I think that's a terrible idea. If you get shot, you get shot. If SFOD wants to reduce friendly fire, they need to get some better uniform requirements. Too many things look like civies. I had a hell of a time trying to figure out who was who when all I could see was a black t-shirt.
