HSO was founded on 28 January 2011 by Snowy Leopard as a clan for Call of Duty: Black Ops, named “Hardcore Snipers Only”.
Shortly after the clan was founded, the HSO sniper only server in CoD:BO became quite popular, and as a direct result, the clan started growing. By the end of the Black Ops 1 era the clan had grown quite a lot, and the core of the clan started to get closer and closer.
On top of this, Modern Warfare 3 turned out to be a big disappointment, so eventually we decided it was best to convert to a community, since this form factor was way more fitting for the state the clan was in: we still gamed together, but it was no longer about just one game, and it was much more about the fun we had together. With this, the name was changed to Heavily Simplified Ops, keeping the abbreviation but changing the meaning.
Due to the friendship that developed, we became a close-knit group of friends rather than a gaming clan. We started to get together more often, and since then you could say we invented our very own HSO holidays:
-Hunter’s Birthday, 31st of December 2012 (yes, in our opinion he’s 4!)
-Gamescom, the greatest gaming trade fair around the world
Sadly it’s not always possible for all members to attend these HSO holidays, since most of us live in the Netherlands, which means that most meetings are always somewhere in the Netherlands.
This doesn’t mean people outside of the Netherlands aren’t welcome to HSO, it just means that we really have to love you to make it work as a group. We are open to everyone, but people who don’t speak Dutch will need an invite to be an official HSO member. Don’t worry though, you can still hang around and chat, which will also greatly increase your chance of receiving an invite!
We have our own dedicated server, which means we have the ability to easily host servers for many games, so don’t hesitate to ask what is possible.
We actually have our very own tech nerds to arrange everything, so if we like your idea, we can make it happen and enjoy it together.
For any further information, just ask us on the forum or join us on Teamspeak, we won’t bite, although we might drive you crazy! ;)
