Saddest thing for me is that i never rlly got the chance to visit any of these locations cus i only dove into brm lore after resurgence came out. By the time i learned how to even use OBS studio, many of these places were already gone. I regret not enjoying the short time i had in operation viper. ( i only started playing brm near the end of viper. By the time i had my 4th star, resurgence came)
RIP the desert, anyone could get 9k an hour there, even players that are very new to the game, it was my favourite spot on the map i also find it kind of sad that i wasnt there when KP was still there, i even saw my brother do the quest once
Kp might be added back but devs disnt say anything abt kp for a while now. If his guitar is stil there, that most likely means devs still remember him and would probably not be completely removed
You forget about two bases that have been replaced with DOU. One of them has been empty, while the other (the furthest one) also has AA trucks and roof snipers.
@@Artpanzer1118 I can't find in which update it's been added or even the name of that base. I remember that it was deleted in the 6.2.0 or 6.0.9 update, and that base has been replaced with DOU. Also, if it can help, after cleaning that base came 1 or 2 trucks with turrets and one personal carrier, and on the second wave the same train of enemy equipment arrived, but now with a helicopter, if I remember it right, a Sea Stallion or Blackhawk (not sure), and a Littlebird.
Its rlly hard for me to find info on these old bases. The wayback machine only started saving the brm5 wiki from 2021 i think and only small ammount of info was available. Google searches dont bring any good results either
there was one really small base with tons of enemies somewhere where is DOU they also had their own SILO place where you was able to enter by bugging thru doors I also think that it was the HARDEST base to raid solo@@Artpanzer1118
@@lorrmok3485 DoU was always called DoU, its just been revamped as a nuclear power plant rather than a small power station with some transformers in the back. also bunker used to be apart of DoU except only the entrance was accessible. Also if I'm not mistaken the original building of the old DoU can be found within the new DoU as some seperate building near the entrance.
the real ogs would remember old city and when you could have green tracer rounds. also the tent where you could bug abuse farm a helicopter, since the place had an ammo box
Yes. I remember ronograd city would get attacked with enemy a10 sweeping the streets. I remember how we could spawn helis at mtn and get ammo from the un embassy. I miss those days
@@Artpanzer1118 Yes, but i meant even an older city. there was a city and then a small base filled with enemies, it was surrounded by walls and had an entrance from the main road, but back in those days, aa didnt exist so you could just fly in. there was a building in this spot where you could refill ammo and wait for the next wave. it was maybe when the game first released, back when the spawn was an old hangar still near current spawn, and vehicles didnt cost anything, just needed stars to use them (found a video about the heli farming spot, seems like it was 4 years ago)
U seem like someone from shadowraid or a bit later. I only started playing in viper. It was inly after resurgence that i started to go into the lore and find old things
@donut_manI, I am not exactly a veteran as I started to play more around early days of Operation Viper, but I remember when the older maps had zombies and little notes you could pick up and read which granted you a badge.
I played the halloween 2020 event and the campsite where zombies would appear and you could kill them to unlock the limited items was actually more near FOB and the road that led to el chara rather then village. I remember somehow landing a a-10 there and spammed the a-10 gun as the zombies just rushed me.
To be honest man, I remember all of it like I played in them a day ago, and yes I am a real OG, plus roleplaying and grinding were way much fun back in those days, damn... I really miss those days...
Still remember that old road connecting the fishing town and quarry remember when I started a rp of almost the entire server joined and raided the damn quarry in multiple waves of attacks either from air or land and ofc can't forget the fact that those gives me nostalgic feeling
I started playing a couple weeks after the initial release, wayyy back in Shadow Raid (I forget if it was 2018 or 2019). The zombies, secret notes, and platinum rank I all remember. Although, I did take a long break when they restarted the stats and I skipped an entire operation. Thankfully I got back in pretty quickly and I was able to enjoy the past few years and what the game has offered.
Hey Lone Operator. About that DOU camp, I recorded a video of it from 2021 when I used to deliver stolen RLF trucks back in the day. I already uploaded it in my channel for everyone to see since I didn't find any videos about the old camp.
If possibly Gnar and the dev team could just merged some of these locations (apart from the large ones) to give us OG players some nostalgia it would be nice.
This brought me way back. The 5 stars I earned in viper, the map, the radio guy from the truck stealing mission, kp, everything. I'm so sad that the new update can't run on my laptop. Thanks for posting.
I think we can all agree that El Chara desert was the best map hands down. There were always a slew of players there grinding money and exp and mowing down the enemy reinforcements. Rip to the good ole BRM5 days.
i first got this idea when they added the cougar mrap. I noticed that in that update, they removed the DOU roadside outpost and all that was left was a patch of grass. i felt kinda sad so a year later, i made this...
@@Artpanzer1118 I really miss the Quarry and Shoreline outposts though I'd farm one place in my Littlebird and then fly over the mountains to the Shoreline one, vice versa
Dude I remember all the OG spots there was the old ronograd el chara and him the gutair dude I didn’t think much of him till he got removed every removed OG building and NPC still has a place in my heart as a OG
some things i remember (i think) 1.calm before storm badge 2. vehicles unlocked via stars (and a10 i think) 3. naval heli 4. obv old map and base 5. co-op mission and c7a2 unlock The nostalgia i got from this singular video makes me sad
the supermarket in Ronograd city is a shop with some empty shelves, and if I recall, at least 2 cash registers (or 1). There was 1 tent and a road with enemy vehicles, and on the other side of it, a bunch of enemies.
Me and my mans would just stay at el chara camping it waiting for the helicopters to come seeing how long we could last. A boat load of xp easy and fun too. Good memories
The heli coming to the desert i shat my pants when i was little. We layed inside and shot at it barely taking damge. I remember the truck and heli stuff it was near the mountain i would go there with my heli and steal it.
the 2020 halloween event was such an iconic era, i just remember meeting randoms and getting on the blackhawk minigun and erasing the zombies. fun times
kp is also a commanding officer in the POD, back when you could get into the nuclear silo before it was a raid location KP had an office in it with a picture of him in uniform and his Makarov
The old helicopter raid at the desert map was epic. The old desert map was really cool to raid with 2-3 people. I remember racing people just to steal the helicopter/van with the info to take it back to the FOB 😭. I wish for a easter egg they bring back the old map
I miss the operation viper ronograd the A10 strave whas such a cool edition. And the message of ronograd getting invaded popping up. I know its because of the timeline for the lore bc in viper rono got invaded and in resurgence they have taken over, but still those details were sick just like the small world missions when u needed to retrieve the uranium from those small camps and they were great for beginners bc u could keep the helicopter from those sites.
In the medical center, you could get medical supplies like bandages and dressings. I'm not sure about vitamins. Back then, they costed money. Though the city revamp isn't that great, when the first revamp happened, there was a small allied outpost there with two ground vehicle spawners. One of the delivery quests in the game is currently bugged. You have to do a delivery there, but you can't access it since the drop-off point is inside a building. The old DOU was great as well. It had a small-ish missile bunker near it, but it got revamped yet again for the raid event.
The DOU being so big feels like it makes a bit of sense, being partly a powerplant and part of the electrical infrastructure. Though we could probably use more small raids going forward. El Chara for one was a whole town but really centered on one key building that enemies would try to storm and retake. Could use something like that again.
I remember el chara it sadly was my favorite place to make money it wast camp the roof and survive i remember that there was were i obtained my first star tha first time i played in a milsim the first time y used a granade (and died) the first time i flew a heli (stole it) and the first time that an a-10 crashed into my team and killed us all y really just played bmr5 to make friends in el chara and have some fun when bmr5 was a funny game and not a bunch of realistic grass that fries my laptop i stopped playing like a year ago and the last week i started to play again i was to excited i grabbed my jeep and run to el chara with a small team of newbies when i saw just a bunch lf sand and rocks i was in shock i just wanted el chara and still searching then we entered to the town thats near depot and... It wasnt el chara now i literally grinded a lot of money but i dont feel bmr5 its funny now i just dont feel the magic and as an Hispanic player i wasnt able to find my old communities i never mew how to get the jk badge i just really wanted to do it i really miss og bmr5
I remember getting so mad at the those darn trucks because I wanted to get my 5th star, and I just kept dying. Me and my friends kept dying from the helicopter near the desert base and all the convoys of enemy's that came afterword. Tank you so much for this flashback in history.
Still remember the old maps i started playing brm5 in 2019 i was 13yrs with my friends playing together and grinding and also raid in different maps just to get money miss the old days playing this is my childhood game and now I'm 18yrs but still playing brm5 and at the same time miss my old friends playing together after class that was so fun back then and realizing im getting old
Back then I used to be one of those newbies who used to spam mountain in chat because I thought that was the only best way to grind, those were fun days.
I figured I might as well give a bit of info on the older locations and some stuff from Viper. -The Quarry and DOU base were the same as the other two mini-outposts. Small place, some RLF and either a truck or littlebird with some stuff that you could cash in for like 1-2k credits iirc. If you were lucky enough to get one with a littlebird, you could keep it, making it a nice way to get an early helicopter. -Mountain got revamped in Resurgence, with the old one having some bags (that my friends just called "drugs" because of the dialogue) that you could grab and bring back to the FOB's requisitions for like 500-1000 credits. That's why it wasn't in use when Resurgence started. -Old DOU sucked. -Naval and Fort Ronograd had some actual AA turrets that could be destroyed, the former also having a littlebird on the ship that had the same stuff on it as the one at the mini-outposts. -Ronograd City used to get raided every half hour, sporting an unreasonable amount of POD with mounted turrets, SAMs, and even enemy A-10s that would gun the city streets between each wave. Of course there's more that I've forgotten, but that's the main stuff that I feel like needs to be put out there.
In the missions from the mini bases the trucks had a nuclear core or something like that and the heli something like the municions box that are airdroped in locations after you cleared the enemies there and between raid phases, also kn the old naval base there was an heli and A.A turrets you had to destroy to retrieve it
I held my hand in a salute for these five minutes, considering I played during viper... and it started my love for this game... I cried about K.P. because I never had time to listen to his song, but I got the badge.
I didnt play blackhawk in so much time, when i hoped back on, i thought a few minor updates have passed and went to the desert area only to get show down hard by anti air.... I miss the old map.
Another revamped location was Fishermens Shore, which used to be socarian befor quests were added, it had a light house and a shop / pub you could go inside but other than that it was fairly empty. I do remember doing a load of RGE events there with my old faction as well. Also a good source for what aload of these locations looked like would be old live streams from a brm5 youtuber call Orandegello as he did all sorts of events at them with his viewers
1:23 ah man this was one of my fav bases, idk exacly why probly mostly bc when i started and i got abit better at the game naval and fort were still hard for me to raid. So i went there and i really like it
i miss when all the vehicles were completely free and you just got them by reaching high enough stars except when the a-10 hangar was closed for like an entire year, on my old computer i still have pictures of me in a chinook in the very first version of the game with the factory and the zombies
Good old days with the boys remembered when our pilot screwed up and almost killed us all in the heli because of he forgot to do a very sharp evasive turn to avoid AA confrontation yet he somehow flew pass the trucks and got severely hit lol
In my opinion the OG map should come back, The city now is so big and I would prefer the old map. WE NEED TO BRING BACK KP! TO ALL OG PLAYERS WHO SEE THIS, WE MUST FIGHT TO BRING HIM BACK!!!!
i remember the little bird boss on desert... legit my first encounter with it as a newb was a literal solo,a newb with ak47 against a little bird,it was fun while it lasted,i raided desert base alot,kinda sad when i found out it was gone the camp site u shown reminded me of another location near the FOB,unless u played before and during the 2020 halloween event,u wont care much abt it,it served as a location for the last quest that grant u the key to get aug a1,the gun on the art at the end of the video,i cheesed my way with the help of a 5 star player using an A-10 the location also bring back smth that only the very OG of the game wouldve remembered at all : zombies. back when the enemy was only some bald dude with black shirt and pant,we got zombie,they roam all around the city and is a common enemy that u would alway face the halloween event was the last time we ever saw zombie again. this video bring back alot of the good old memory i had,thank u alot for this gem of a vid.
As an OG, one location that I feel like should've been deserving of a mention is the factory from the early beta. That place is home to some of my first memories of playing BRM5.
I remember, back then the mini desert base with the helicopter, I remember doing a quest. Where I had to airlift a box of god knows what to F.O.B, and when I finished it, the quest giver said “You can keep the bird.” It was my very first, helicopter that I earned, it was the best thing, waking up and doing that quest to get the M-6 Everyday..
El Clara that place had so many memories, and im bummed by them removing city hall bacause as soon as you captured it defending it was so easy until the 2 helis landed on the roof and that was a adrenaline rush fighting those guys it was my favourite place on the map they could add it back and it wouldn't overlap on the already existing middle location of ronograd city.
I played when i was in 2nd grade(don't judge). I don't remember much but I remember a big warehouse with an exit and a vehicle spawner right next to it and then I remember going in a little bird and flying to mountain to grab bags from it. I don't know what version it was but I'm sad I stopped playing and forgot about it and missed so much. I started playing again a little bit before resurgence I believe, yet I still barely remember that. I remember when the new update came and the load out changed how it looked. Good times.
I loved El Chara and the mini outposts, El Chara was extremely fun and helped me get 5 stars. I'll never forget Operation Viper, I still Wonder where KP is, I still visit KP's house and just sit there sometimes to remember the good times.
I miss city hall. I miss El Chara and how me and my friend would switch off luring all the PoDs outside next to Red Barrel, and then exploding it for exp and cash...
The first time I had played BRM 5 was sometime before they added credits to the game, and you obtained stuff from leveling up. Not sure if it was because I hasn't looked around the map but I remember there being only one spot to raid and that was at a port of some sort. The details are still kind of foggy in my head but I'm guessing I first got in the game somewhere 2019-2020. Was hella different from what it was now, hell the only vehicle they had were 4x4 jeeps.

El Cara base will be in my heart forever, i remember raiding it with friends just for fun
Back then I used to be one of those newbies who used to spam mountain in chat because I thought that was the only best way to grind, those were fun days.
I figured I might as well give a bit of info on the older locations and some stuff from Viper.
-The Quarry and DOU base were the same as the other two mini-outposts. Small place, some RLF and either a truck or littlebird with some stuff that you could cash in for like 1-2k credits iirc. If you were lucky enough to get one with a littlebird, you could keep it, making it a nice way to get an early helicopter.
-Mountain got revamped in Resurgence, with the old one having some bags (that my friends just called "drugs" because of the dialogue) that you could grab and bring back to the FOB's requisitions for like 500-1000 credits. That's why it wasn't in use when Resurgence started.
-Old DOU sucked.
-Naval and Fort Ronograd had some actual AA turrets that could be destroyed, the former also having a littlebird on the ship that had the same stuff on it as the one at the mini-outposts.
-Ronograd City used to get raided every half hour, sporting an unreasonable amount of POD with mounted turrets, SAMs, and even enemy A-10s that would gun the city streets between each wave.
Of course there's more that I've forgotten, but that's the main stuff that I feel like needs to be put out there.
In the missions from the mini bases the trucks had a nuclear core or something like that and the heli something like the municions box that are airdroped in locations after you cleared the enemies there and between raid phases, also kn the old naval base there was an heli and A.A turrets you had to destroy to retrieve it
Real OG's remember the A10 that used to strafe ronograd back in like 2020-early 2021 and the old ronograd layout
the gym map, with the city hall....i remember the days when the fal is still op, and the game was truly fun...
I held my hand in a salute for these five minutes, considering I played during viper... and it started my love for this game... I cried about K.P. because I never had time to listen to his song, but I got the badge.
Same. I started playing near the end of viper and right as i got the lore and all the game became resurgence.
I remember the zombies in the old old times (not the halloween event)
U mean the first brm with bald red men?
I didnt play blackhawk in so much time, when i hoped back on, i thought a few minor updates have passed and went to the desert area only to get show down hard by anti air.... I miss the old map.
Another revamped location was Fishermens Shore, which used to be socarian befor quests were added, it had a light house and a shop / pub you could go inside but other than that it was fairly empty. I do remember doing a load of RGE events there with my old faction as well.
Also a good source for what aload of these locations looked like would be old live streams from a brm5 youtuber call Orandegello as he did all sorts of events at them with his viewers
"Bring me to mountain" boy i haven't heard that in a while...
1:23 ah man this was one of my fav bases, idk exacly why
probly mostly bc when i started and i got abit better at the game naval and fort were still hard for me to raid. So i went there and i really like it
Og player here: i miss KP i would just chill there with some friends back in the day, i still go to his hous and chill there and remember old times
My first time playing was so long ago i forgot what it looked like but i remember what was it el chara
Why was it lost to us
dude I used to grind on the quarry map and the el carra map. Good memories indeed
I to this day remember grinding from 0-3 or 4 stars at el chara. One of my best memories from the game n something they is always in my heart
i miss when all the vehicles were completely free and you just got them by reaching high enough stars except when the a-10 hangar was closed for like an entire year, on my old computer i still have pictures of me in a chinook in the very first version of the game with the factory and the zombies
This is brm5 what we want
Ohh men thats so nostalgic thanks for remembering me the old good times whit my Friends.
Shout out to the factory, true OG grind spot
They need to add an "OG" section in the game for what it used to look like pre-resurgence with modern systems. I wish I was there.
Im fell the nostalgia about old BRM5, and big raid of Old Fort
real og's will remember the first map with that one naval base
Oh man i remmeber when half the server was just at Kp's just listening
Good old days with the boys remembered when our pilot screwed up and almost killed us all in the heli because of he forgot to do a very sharp evasive turn to avoid AA confrontation yet he somehow flew pass the trucks and got severely hit lol
I was pretty small compared to now but i still remember the desert base used to go there alot
In my opinion the OG map should come back, The city now is so big and I would prefer the old map.
WE NEED TO BRING BACK KP!
TO ALL OG PLAYERS WHO SEE THIS, WE MUST FIGHT TO BRING HIM BACK!!!!
i remember the little bird boss on desert... legit my first encounter with it as a newb was a literal solo,a newb with ak47 against a little bird,it was fun while it lasted,i raided desert base alot,kinda sad when i found out it was gone
the camp site u shown reminded me of another location near the FOB,unless u played before and during the 2020 halloween event,u wont care much abt it,it served as a location for the last quest that grant u the key to get aug a1,the gun on the art at the end of the video,i cheesed my way with the help of a 5 star player using an A-10
the location also bring back smth that only the very OG of the game wouldve remembered at all : zombies.
back when the enemy was only some bald dude with black shirt and pant,we got zombie,they roam all around the city and is a common enemy that u would alway face
the halloween event was the last time we ever saw zombie again.
this video bring back alot of the good old memory i had,thank u alot for this gem of a vid.
As an OG, one location that I feel like should've been deserving of a mention is the factory from the early beta. That place is home to some of my first memories of playing BRM5.
I never got to try that map but i heard lotta people say they liked it and they hate plat5 for removing it.
I remember, back then the mini desert base with the helicopter, I remember doing a quest. Where I had to airlift a box of god knows what to F.O.B, and when I finished it, the quest giver said “You can keep the bird.” It was my very first, helicopter that I earned, it was the best thing, waking up and doing that quest to get the M-6 Everyday..
I remember moving through the sewers of the old naval base (wayyy wayy back) and fighting zombies in the old town.
Long live the old Ronograd alley, miss the old SAMs on those BTR-152 looking things and the paratroopers
El Clara that place had so many memories, and im bummed by them removing city hall bacause as soon as you captured it defending it was so easy until the 2 helis landed on the roof and that was a adrenaline rush fighting those guys it was my favourite place on the map they could add it back and it wouldn't overlap on the already existing middle location of ronograd city.
I played when i was in 2nd grade(don't judge). I don't remember much but I remember a big warehouse with an exit and a vehicle spawner right next to it and then I remember going in a little bird and flying to mountain to grab bags from it. I don't know what version it was but I'm sad I stopped playing and forgot about it and missed so much. I started playing again a little bit before resurgence I believe, yet I still barely remember that. I remember when the new update came and the load out changed how it looked. Good times.
I loved El Chara and the mini outposts, El Chara was extremely fun and helped me get 5 stars.
I'll never forget Operation Viper, I still Wonder where KP is, I still visit KP's house and just sit there sometimes to remember the good times.
I miss city hall. I miss El Chara and how me and my friend would switch off luring all the PoDs outside next to Red Barrel, and then exploding it for exp and cash...
Goodbye El Chara we will miss you :( ( that was one of my favorite locations ingame)
omg i thought i was the only one who remembered the little bird boss
The first time I had played BRM 5 was sometime before they added credits to the game, and you obtained stuff from leveling up. Not sure if it was because I hasn't looked around the map but I remember there being only one spot to raid and that was at a port of some sort. The details are still kind of foggy in my head but I'm guessing I first got in the game somewhere 2019-2020. Was hella different from what it was now, hell the only vehicle they had were 4x4 jeeps.
The first map of BRM 5...
and when we all spawned in the hangar
None are forgotten for me
All are in our hearts
Back to viper it was another game, none locations stayed same...
Tbh ur right. Brm never was the same after viper. Fort, naval, village, mtn, quarry, and el chara all got changed in some way
