Back in July, over 40 FK members gathered in the small town of Dorking, United Kingdom, for a two day airsoft meetup. In between games, the PR team grabbed a couple of FK members aside to immortalize their presence with a picture of two. This article will showcase a few of those members and we couldn't resist ourselves to ask them a couple of questions as well. Meet Silentgunner13, ThatWalder and NotConnor. Silentgunner13 Hi @SilentGunner13, when did you get into airsoft and what makes it so fun to do? I got into airsoft around March this year. I'd watched videos around it and always thought it looked like fun but never had the time or money. It was only at the start of this year that I started seriously researching the airsoft scene in Ireland and trying to get an idea of how much it'd cost to get myself set up. I played a few rental games early in the year. @Mittens then invited me down to play airsoft in Wicklow with him, @Whiskers and @SABER. This was the first big game I'd played in an outdoor venue with a gun that wasn't a crap M4/G36 rental (SABRE lent me his LVOA). I also rescued the cat brothers' boots from their mother's house on my way down which is a story in itself. After that I got my own RIFs and started playing a bit more seriously. Airsoft is fun to play for me because its therapeutic. Running around, looking like a badass/idiot/badass idiot and playing a game with a good team is a great way to shake off stress from the previous week at work. Especially when people come to the event with the right attitude and equipment such as radios... and brains. Plus its one of the only times in life where it is socially acceptable to magdump a minor without going to jail. As an experienced airsoft player, did you enjoy the FK airsoft weekend? I wouldn't say I'm 'experienced'. I'm somewhere around the amateur mark at this point. I don't even have UKARA yet.. however having done a number of games the FK event was fucking fantastic. You saw people from all across the spectrum (in more than one sense of the word) from the guys showing up in tracksuits and hoodies to the guys who've poured hundreds into their gear. But despite this disparity, everybody had fun. People called their hits, nobody got salty, and really it was just like an FK mission in real life with people doing stupid shit I.e. @Whiskers transitioning into a barrel and @Tobe picking a fight with a tree (and losing). Even the total newbies to airsoft got really into it. People really got into the spirit of the weekend and I don't think a single person left that weekend disappointed. I sure as shit didn't. I'd do it again next week if you asked me to... and paid for my airfare....and promised not to send @EHOPPPS to collect me. In a big way, I enjoyed the meetup because it was something different. I was getting tired of how monotonous my 9-5 life was getting, so when the opportunity to get shot at by a bunch of people who I've never met (but many I consider good mates) came about ? Fuck yeah, I'm doing that. For me though, the best part was seeing people help each other out. Like @Vesper Akiri helping people with weapon malfunctions or @mulletshock lending me a few spare mags on the Saturday and of course, the legend of @andyt90 lending me his absolute unit of an M16A2. Seeing everybody in person helping each other out, and most importantly, having a good time (especially at the pub) made me realise that despite the running joke about FK being a bit of a toxic community, it isn't in reality. It's filled with a bunch of fucking legends I'm proud to call friends, from all around the world. In fact, the meetup actually dispelled a few misconceptions and judgements that I had made about some people. The meetup just felt like a massive lads (and ladies!) holiday with a bunch of lovable nerds all there to have a good time, and I cannot wait for the next one Gear list The cap is Viper Tactical Weapon is a G&G TR16 (lent from @andyt90, magazines also lent from him) but have my own G&G Raider CM16 SRL and a WE P226 Gloves are Highlander Raptor fingerless Plate Carrier is a an Olive Assault vest from GFC Tactical with mag pouches, IFAK, Radio pouch etc Shirt is an Olive UBACS from Magcomsen Radio is a Baofeng UV-5R Battle belt from bulldog tactical with util pouch, phone pouch, dump pouch and pistol holster Multicam trousers from Tacvasen with integrated kneepads Multicam Boots from Savage Island ThatWalder @ThatWalder, how did you get in to airsoft? I got into airsoft due to there being an airsoft society at the university which I attended (then dropped out of after 2 years). I got all my uni housemates into airsoft and the society was full a great group of light minded adults with a secret bloodlust and most of us where gamers at heart. We would go airsoft in a old world war 2 bunker on Tuesday nights and on the Sunday we would head to one of the local outdoor large sites. While others went full milsim, you went full slav. What's the story behind the outfit? I think I went full slav because a lot of us recently been playing a lot of Escape from Tarkov as a groups and we always seem to have a laugh. I didn't have many milsim gear or equipment but I have bits and bobs which I just scavenged together. So Scav Slav was born from that. Gear list Slav Walder Adidas striped tracksuit bottoms Adidas striped tracksuit hoodie Uskanka hat steel toe cap boots @Vesper Akiri's AK Other gear: South African Assault Vest, Olive Viper Long sleeve shirt, Nuprol olive half mask and Nuprol mesh eye pro (always wear protection kids) NotConnor @Not Connor, we've got to ask the story behind your outfit. Were you inspired by something, or just felt like not going full camo? I was kind of inspired by a lot of what ive seen from PJs and PRs in the US special forces, just kind of looking serious and geared up and wearing a silly shirt (hawaiian) or otherwise, so its always been a thing to keep it serious but also have a bit of fun with it. What's your most memorable experience from the FK airsoft meetup, or the FK meetup in general? It was probably when @Tobe demolished the barrel in like the second game, or even the last game with him playing it in a cheerleader outfit. Gear List The carrier was a JPC style plate carrier with some mag pouches on the side as well as a dangler for some storage The most notable other things about the loadout would just be the holster (modified drop holster) Two toned CZ-P09 pistol by ASG The clothing was mostly cheap stuff i actually got for the meetup, stuff i didnt mind getting dirty and again going for a special forces kind of look where things like uniform and camo dont matter as much as style The rifle I borrowed from @mulletshock as well as the sling, but all other equipment used was mine. Which of the three outfits do you enjoy the most? Comment below 👇 -

I am interested too, but like Bartlett I am learning the ropes. Interestingly the sound directionality is better in Squad than Arma, unless I am missing something. But also trackir or other head movement isn't supported. My 2p

Meeting Memo Trainer’s Top Tips Zeus Tag Application & Evaluation system This topic contains all the information you need to apply for Co-Zeus or Zeus tag.

But be aware that we expect people to understand the importance of good zeusing, so we will carefully examine the applications. Main requirement is to have Reg+ status in the community. Read More...

I'd love to just take a moment and explain to you why we need your support on Twitter. Read More...

In collaboration with RadioArma.com, FKGaming had the opportunity to sit down and record a podcast introducing our Community to the podcast audience. In this 1 hour and 18 min podcast Flash Ranger interviews MulletShock (Community Manager) and Rhea (Public Relations Officer) about the day to day of FKGaming and how we differ from any other Arma Unit. Please show your support by listening to the Podcast and interacting with us on Twitter! Also do not forget to visit our friends at RadioArma and check out their long list of other Arma Podcasts! -
We won't forget
-
Could we add a section to the INT-REPS where it showcases/highlights stuff such as community guides, up-coming events, community made projects or fk squadrons in other games than arma 3? Maybe even interviews with trainers and the like? 😎
-
If it is anything like last time FK had a squad server, it probably will be semi-serious, depending on who is playing
-
You don't run then, you accept fate... Big Bird has plans for us all, we are merely vessels of its great powers
-
But what if the big bird doesn't even get off the ground and slides into some trees at the end of the runway, killing half the platoon in a mission without respawns? How do we run then @Trinoc? You thought we forgot didn't you...? (I mean not to dwell on the past, but...)

FKGaming is pumped to announce the development our very own Squad server. Squad is a tactical FPS trying to bridge the gap between lightweight arcade shooters and hardcore military simulators. Providing large scale, combined arms combat and authentic combat experiences. Achieve victory through teamwork, communication and tactical gameplay; making it a perfect fit for FKgaming's community mindset. Already back in November 2017, FKGaming hosted a Squad server during a free weekend on Steam. Although the game is still in Alpha, the growth of Squad has not gone unnoticed and will provide FK members with a military playground in a welcoming PVP setting. The upcoming release of our Squad server could not have better timing as the game is currently available for only $12 through Humble Bundle. We will announce the exact launch date in a future post, but we couldn't wait to share this server update with you. This also gives you plenty of time to buy Squad with a great discount through Humble Bundle, as the discounted price is only available until September 6th. The hosting of our Squad server does not increase our monthly donation goals, as it will be hosted on our current server box infrastructure. Depending on technical limitations, the closure of one of our less frequently used ARMA 3 servers is possible. (All Squad screenshots were kindly made available by Fokkehassel) -
Why do we have a report on intelligence, when there is none to be found in FK...!?

Be sure to look through them HERE. Ignorance is no excuse for rule breaking! Trainer’s Top Tips Squad Lead Information MK2 - By AndyT90 As a Squad Leader, you are responsible for the squad and the actions it takes. You make sure the squad executes the plan, the squad has the equipment needed for the task at hand, and make sure that the squad doesn't die. While you may think that you only have an effect on your own squad's enjoyment of the mission, it is definitely possible to influence others as well. A squad that sets up overwatch on the same position as another squad or in front of a tank, a squad leader with terrible comms and a squad that doesn't properly clear their sector are some of the biggest annoyances experienced in missions. You can not judge your competence as a squad leader just by what your squad members say, especially when it is always the same people. Even then, what does the person do well? What should a squad leader be able to do?

The staff team can use the bot to update the mods on the servers, restart the server and kick people when required without having to launch Arma or go to the website of Arma Remote Admin. But that is not the only thing the bot does! In the new #servers channel on discord are five messages, one for each of the servers that show whether the server is online, the current map and the players on the server. If you ever need to know if a server is free or see what map people are playing on at the moment, you can check the live status messages that are updated every five minutes. See our Discord FK #3 =BTC= Hearts and Minds Server - by kMaN Hearts and Minds is a cooperative mission that aims to recreate a post war environment based on an insurgency gameplay.

As they approach the village from the beach, they encounter a local denizen of the murky deeps which left they unharmed after being feed. They quickly explored the village seeing clear signs of past struggles. Many of the doors and windows have been torn or knocked down. As they prepared for night fall, a small note was found in the large fire pit on the top of the signal tower which warned any living soul that should they stay the night, "They will come and bring you before their lord". With their defenses built and the sun sets, the heros settle down with the hopes of a quite night. The Blood Peninsula may have other plans, as when the sun sets the true horrors awake.
