    'Elderly' player looking to stop playing solo

    Been playing with an old Ghost Recon clan since Island Thunder. we won a few S&D ladders seasons on DC, "back in the day"
    I just can't play DIV (XB1)solo anymore, others may disagree but IMO it's become a dual or 4 player squad game, currently semi retired so I've been grinding away from say 1pm-9pmPST.
    I'd really like to find some steady players to join up with consistently.
    I'm a retired USN 15+ years of (113X, that is kind of sensitive, so you'll have to look it up to get it), very good tactician, not a terrible player but solo is taking the fun away for me. I'm not a run&gun player, but I'm 60, so reflexes aren't what they used to be, makes me use the Marksman (there I'm pretty decent). Also I carry a G36C and a pretty good Aug, I'm find it easy to swap the August in/out quickly. CQ is my weak spot.
    Made the mistake of gearing up with wearables, Perks, Talents and can easily go from a GS of 190 to 206, neglected wraps, BIG MISTAKE for me. So currently I screwed up and the highest GS weapon is a 182 (all my wraps are 182). So DZ and less so UnderGround I can't put down a BOSS or any 31-32-33 tangos without being VERY CLEVER, so that's a huge issue for me.
    The balloons I can bring to the party are strategy, organization, humor. (I play for fun, not to cheat, play dirty, Win at any cost)
    I'm really easy going, couldn't care any less about who's the shot caller or who is a leader. NO ego issues, I play fair, I'm team oriented, and I can $uck in some situations. I just want to some folks who aren't too serious, are MATURE in game, I like to have some fun and don't take others mistakes or weak spots and get all bent out of shape.

    Biggest flaw and reason I struggle in the DZ and UG.So I'd like to find some squads I can play with. I am seriously a strong tactically, (like what everyone's going to role with for gear in a squad, IMO the services use 4 person teams for a reason, the minimal number of people, with 4 diverse set-ups.
    I can play as serious as needed or just play to enjoy and have a good time.

    (Yeah I know, small novelette to not actually say a lot, but with me what you see is what you get. I wanted to get everything out on the table, so there are no surprised).

    If you're a squad a need an extra player I'm there, if you looking to do what I just laid in my novel above that works for me. IF you want to just play dual, or squad that works for me.

    If you want to give it a go, leave me a message if I'm not on, or a text/voice msg if I am on.
    XBOX 1, my gaming handle is JAC Peterwor. I know several of my JAC brotherhood but aren't on a lot these days, Some our our other teams are on as well. So they all know what JAC was/is, if you don't recognize it, np. I may be changing it anyway.
    THE END !!!!
    Hit me up if your looking for same. Or another fresh face if you have a squad already.
    Cheers,
    JAC Peterwor (aka Peter)

    45 and would like to team up

    Thanks for your post. I'm 45 years old, been gaming for over 20 years, and have been playing almost entirely solo. I still enjoy solo play, but as you mentioned, there are some things you just can't solo in this game. I'm intimidated by the idea of joining random strangers, many of whom will be young and have the perfect reflexes and vision I haven't benefited from for a while now... (not to mention that there are some engaging in double-cross gameplay!) but I still hold my own pretty well with a level 30 agent that does hard missions solo with no problem. I am especially looking for help with the harder tier high value targets. Please feel free to send a friend request to AnteOmniaArmari.

    JAC, I wish you were on PC as I would team up with you and go grind the gears (mine main and alt character GS is already +240).

    Served the forces as well and even if this is just an game, having someone "unrestricted line officer who is qualified in special warfare (acno surface warfare)" with few tricks as battle buddy is far better than random who quits after being downed while trying to Rambo it.
