Influx of players

Most multiplayer games worth a crap have large enough depth of playerbase that newbies can easily find servers with people of similar skill.

MNC's tiny-*** playerbase will continue to be its downfall because newbies have no choice but face off against people at the top of the ladder, or never play the game at all.

What game is that? :lol:

pong, i think.

This is true and is an unfortunate feedback-loop.

Yes they do, that's what 3-star servers are for.

Instead, I get 5 assassins on my team all trying to facestab a tank, in his base, next to a lvl3 rock-it, that's fully hacked and healed, while a support has overhealed the tank, while 2 gunners are nearby, while a hacked shaveice is nearby, while 30 bouncers are running around slapping their ****, while we have no turrets and 250 bots near the ball.

Also, the tank is invincible and can kill people by looking in their general direction for 2 seconds.

But really, new players don't make it fun for veteran players too. In fact, most games I play now is just a matter of if your team has more idiots than theirs.

this describes it fairly accurately

I think we're giving ourselves too much a pat on the back for being veterans. I think we should give ourselves a pat on the pack for not being idiots.

I don't know about the rest of you, but my skill got maybe 1.3 times better from when I first started to now. Win loss ratio has always been pretty constant.
