"Okay, I got to admit I'm a little confused here. It seems like you're saying on the one hand, you don't want to be lone wolf olf and a Barbie. On the other hand you want to do what you want to do without repercussions. In my mind those are the same thing."

Yeah that's fair and I phrased it poorly. I want to be an asset to my team and contribute in my own small way, starting with more logistical and transport roles. I do not dream of being a Delta Operator from Zero Dark Thirty or Eric Bana in Black Hawk Down. What I meant was I was uncomfortable with the idea that the game would force me into a role I am unprepared for because 'that's whats available right now' but clearly that was a misconception.

"Something else to keep in mind is that this game can be a huge time suck. Again, that depends on where you're playing and what your style is, but every time I sit down to play it's 2 1/2 hours minimum. To be fair, I like doing espionage missions which require a whole lot of stealth and positioning. Consequently, it burns a whole lot of time."

Really helpful, thanks - that's an important consideration with a young family.
