Special Operation Events - Nov. 3rd

Join the Angry Army this Saturday on November 3rd for our first round of events for ‘Special Operations: Quinquennial’! Across PC and console to kick off the AJSA 5th Year Anniversary celebrations we are gathering to play Battlefield 4, a unique title that undoubtedly served as a unifying force within our community for many years across numerous amounts of events, game nights, and other activities. We are proud to feature Battlefield 4 this weekend and look back on a title that brought so much of us together.

On PC Battlefield 4 was an important title in the early months of the community following the launch of the AJSA in November 2013. May 3rd, 2014 marked the first ever ‘Battlefield 4 Op Night’ in the PC Division with members from the original ‘Angry Army Platoon’ banding together to play. This would mark the first of many AJSA events on PC for Battlefield 4 and support for the game continued into 2015 before regular events ended. Thanks to the hard and efforts of all the organizers and participants, Battlefield 4 served a key role in the beginning of the AJSA.

On PS4 Battlefield 4 is a game that helped form what Game Nights in the Playstation 4 Division is today. Prior to what you all know and love about Game Nights, these events for PS4 members were once called ‘Angry Invasions’. The concept was simple. Show Up. Team Up. Blow Everything Up. The Angry Invasions served as a place for players on Playstation 4 to group up and play together back before the Playstation 4 Division, and Game Nights, were even a thing. Yes, back when the AJSA was first formed there was only a PC Division. For those who took part in these ‘Angry Invasion’ gathers on PS4, you are what set the foundation for Game Nights and Playstation 4 as a whole.

On Xbox One Battlefield 4 also served as an important title during the early days of the Xbox One Division in the Spring of 2014. In April 2015 Battlefield 4 became the first ‘official game’ of the Xbox One Division with its own Game Officer and staff. (similar to what many PC games at the time had in the community). It served as the flagship game for the Division for nearly two years, holding the original record of the longest running weekly event series on Xbox with weekly events ending in the Spring of 2017. During a time of much change in 2015 for the Xbox Division, Battlefield 4 served as game that rallied the community, brought Xbox members closer and helped us move forward with new ideas leading to where we are today.
