Pub stomping

Is it pub stomping if you bring yourself?

What do you mean?

Pub stomping usually refers to large groups (I would say 4-6) playing low level players, not giving them a chance, destroying them, getting lots of kills, dragging out the game for more time to get more XP and kills. In any game.

If your doing this by yourself then it simply means the whole lobby is pants and your better than everyone.

peachy pony made this same topic a while ago. search function.

It is hard to use the search function if you spell almost everything wrong.

Be more sensitive, Tom.

does earning 8 kills in the duration of overtime because as an assault you feel that it is more important to kill pros that hit the ball count as pubstomping?

Cause I was told I pub stomp 9/10 Im not in a party. I lose 7/10 games also. Just ok K/d Ratio.

Who told you that you pub stomp?

I did. He is just too good.

He comes in a game solo as an assault, farm 40 kills from a pathetic team, I stop him from getting an uber streak just barely, and he juices the moneyball from center of steel peel.

One of those 2 paragraphs is true, guess which one?

I played you bro ?

Yeah. Steel Peel. With some okay players, and some straight up randy randoms.

The okay players I was with did drop your ball to 48% and push your team a bit, I just tried staying out of your way after a while so I could trap your team and push bots.

I was the tank that you kept rushing down. Only 2 times I killed you, I clutched passive and ripped you with a point blank charge. I believe that stopped your uberstreak.

We lost still I believe. I exaggerated that you killed the power core from middle, but you did come in and solo the moneyball in overtime when yours was 48%.

Ohhh i think i remember now. Yeah that clutch passive always gets me. I get rowdy when i get level 3 passive. Need to work on my distance. I can hit the money ball from the center though on that beam by the right side rok it turret. Only when theres more then 1 fire base. Good game.

I was wondering this the other day. More often than not now I end up playing against less experienced players 95% of the time. Sometimes they'll put up a fight, most of the time they behave as you would expect and I can rack up 30-40 kills per match with 3 or 4 deaths. My team usually wins (9 out of 10). If this is how it's going, I'll play a couple rounds, see if it gets any better. If it doesn't I'll leave. Don't get me wrong, I love laughing at noobs as I kill them in new, more creative ways. I just know it sucks, being on the other side. getting meleed down as an assault, by a support, then watching him taunt over your corpse EVERY TIME he kills you, gets old . Fast.

what if this is the only group I can find? I guess I just stick around and kick the crap out of them? I usually switch to a different class, one that I never play, and try that out. Then some lvl 24 assassin will back grapple me and taunt. Then its back to the shotty. Sometimes I'll just "support" for a whole round. Overhealing team mates, juicing just to taunt, practicing ground zeroing tanks and gunners, etc.

Maybe I can't help it if im just stuck with a group of persistent noobs. Am I stomping them?

So, it's not pubstomping if it's just me and one friend owning everyone? Alright.

With 2 I would say no. Once you hit 3 it becomes iffy. With 3 it depends on the quality of your opponent. 4 is no question stomping.

I'm going with a third player the pub stomp commences.

Depending on the quality of the rest of your team, no, it doesn't. Sarcastic knob.

If I join a game and I realize I'm the only decent person in the lobby, I'll quit out and find a new one. Racking up 30 kills a game against of non-all star makes the game too boring for me.

I would like to say I do that but the truth is no..
Having close, even, overtime, nail biting, games is so rare that I wouldn't have the energy to try to get one. When good matches do come up they are the most fun and no one likes an overtime juice rush better than me
However the case still stands that most games will be one sided due to the match making, team balance and the general feel that if your an all star (99 over) you probably have 1 or more friends who plays the game, or at least play with people of the forums from time to team. Since that makes up probably the majority of players there is usually always more experienced players on one team than there is the other. Then the fact remains that one terrible player can ruin the game. eg. Pro goes 2-17, 3 bot kills and no turrets build or upgraded.

I just flat-out refuse to be stomped. I will leave the game. I consider stomping as 3+ guys on a team ripping apart the other team and letting the game drag out.

I do think there is such a thing as solo and 2-person stomping. I went sniper and lead my team with 17 kills and 2 deaths. The game lasted 5 minutes and the other team got mad. I have played games with JackTrips and Amaze Theory where we got put on the same team, and we pretty much dominated. I consider myself better than average at this game, but I can rarely hold out vs. stompers.
