What the...?

So i joined a random game with my buddy TOM12121112. There was Billy Rueben, Im Hudson, BoltAktion, Show your heart, and Zander Star all on the opposite team. The ball was down when i got into the game. Now for some reason, they were all going for kills, basically playing a team deathmatch. I was cool with it until the point where they started getting juice and meleeing me to death. That was disgraceful and quite rude. I am thinking this is the way they go for the leaderboards. I checked all of they're profiles and most of them were offline for about 2 hours. Now i was previously friends with BoltAktion and he decided to delete me. I think i might have said something wrong, but i cannot recall saying anything rude. They were also keeping the ball up so obviously they could go for kills. They had 6 people on they're team and i am assuming they all have mics. So they have a structured way of doing this.

I am not flaming, i am just dissapointed the guys i thought were pretty cool, would kill me so rudely and show off the fact that they obviously are one minded.

If one of you six have an explanation for this. I would be glad to hear it... :|


Unproud, and quite aggravated
Scented Midget.

Tryhard?

HOW CAN YOU "TRYHARD" WHEN YOU ARE THE ONLY ONE ON YOUR TEAM WHO WAS ANY COMMON SENSE? How can you "tryhard" when the opposing team is rushing you with juice, meleeing you to death, throwing traps in front of your doors, and basically being complete s.o.b's. And no i will not rage quit, it will just leave my team in distress while they get rocked even more.

I now see the other side of these stupid shenanigans. I am never going to just kill people just so i can "get off" at night. From now on, i am going to play the game it is meant to be played. Rather than going around acting like i am a big deal, trying to make the other team as humiliated as possible, and being just a complete snob.

Last time I played with Hudson and co. on the opposite team they all went assassin literally swarmed me with melee attacks all at once. It was hilarious. I don't think you should take it so personally.

yeah, being on the other end of the steam roller when you can't move or do anything and they refuse to touch the money ball is annoying.

It's not very hilarious when you repetitively get swarmed by them...
It's not fun.
And it is very humiliating.

I wouldn't say 5 vs 1 was humiliating. Just take out a shotgun and try to take two down for one death

Haha that's just them having fun. They do random stuff like all going Sniper and throwing 15 ice traps all over the map and going for strictly melee kills.

It's a game, have fun. If you're not having fun, then quit. Simple as that.

But it can ruin other people's fun...

Then they can quit too. When I see people quit mid game, I never have a problem with it. My philosophy is as I stated above: this is a game. You're supposed to have fun in it. If you're not having fun, you can quit and look for a new game where you will have fun.

Responses:

-We show offline because we are friends with a good portion of the community and get swarmed with invites whenever we are online. The game has a maximum of 6 players per team. Most of us are fairly active, and our core group gets priority. We try to diversify who we bring in fill the empty spots. If you are already playing with a party, we typically won't try to invite you because we don't want more than 6, and don't want to split up YOUR party.

-We have been "dragging out" our games the past few nights because of the following:

*During The past few nights, it has been rare to find a non-lagging, good hit detection host outside of our party. Even after the update.

*The hosts that don't lag tend to quit out if we rush the objective in under 2-5 mins like we normally do, and then we are back at square 1.

*If you don't join through the game's crossfire lobby system (IE: If you join in progress), you will likely be split from your team. This means that every time a new person joins the party, we have to back out.

*Even when we DO host, we have sat in lobbies for anywhere between 5-20 mins waiting on a game. People see 6 99's and quit, or people join off our friends list and see that we are full, and subsequently quit. Last night, we compared highlight protag counts for close to half an hour while we waited on a game.

*We like to do stupid things, like go for melee kills, and spawn as many gapshots as possible. This is probably why most of us don't play competitively. You know the difference between a montage and a funtage? We probably lean closer to the funtage category.

The ONE game on ammo mule you played went a lot longer than most of our "dragged out" games. Our version of "not playing for the objective/dragging out a game" usually consists of

-Killing both rockit turrets in the first 1:00 of the game
-Escorting bots to the ball
-Focusing on pro kills WHILE keeping the bot spawns clear, allowing our bots to do 100% of the damage to the ball. If we are successful, the game ends right around the first jackbot spawn.

Why this game felt like it dragged was because we had people spawning gapshots instead of pushing, and most of us were attempting to go for melee kills. This game still ended around the 10:00-12:00 min mark well before overtime.

Another possible explanation is I was playing gunner instead of tank, and with most of us going for melee kills we ignored our usually awesome bot control, which allowed the ball to raise up.

If you REALLY think we are leaderboard whoring by going for melee kills...*shudder* (My K/D is an absolutely remarkable 2.2ish, mostly from pushing bots, money ball suiciding, and doing aforementioned silly things.)

Sorry you did not enjoy your game with us. I don't think meleeing you is disrespectful in the slightest, however.

Tryhard. Mine's 2.03. Get owned.

Ragequiter.

1.5! Owned harder.

Suicide runs FTW

You people disgust me.

Has anyone ever ridden the other team's moneyball as it dropped? I think it's the most tasteful way of humiliating an opponent.

This. I can't count how many times I have to run to the moneyball just to shoot off one shuriken to keep it down. And then die a horrible death haha.

But half of you post on here it is not fun quiting games going to look for new games.
You keep stating to quit, when obviously that is not fun. So basically they are "fun ruiner's."

That, or... you're just a terrible sport. I'm trying really hard not to be a generic flamer here but there's nothing else I can say here. Either get better, or become a better sport. Failing that, leave the game and join another one. Takes all of 30 seconds, maybe.

Just because another team having fun ruins your fun, that doesn't make them "fun ruiners." It's your problem for having a problem with another team trying to have fun.

Quick note: This is a general statement. I did use the word "you" but it's not directed at anyone specifically.

Plus then there might be a handful of guys on your team that are trying to push and then get annoyed when everyone on there team is rage-quitting and start reporting rage-quitting randy savages.

Regarding half of your "explanations"
They did not seem to reference quite much of what i was expecting.

My anger assumption was that you guys were going for as you say "whoring the leaderboard's." And my k/d is at a 1.4.

It was very unpleasant. Maybe you could go against my group of people by your self, get stuck in freeze traps right out your spawn door, get assassinated 24/7 and get (basically to some up the entire game) chewed up and spit out.

And yes it is very disrespectful because you wouldn't go up to a guy you know at school with 5 of your buddy's smacking him around. That may be a little to literal, but you get what I am saying.

Just maybe think about how your fun, makes others want to stop playing the game.
Oh and i just love how you endorse people to go play tank and have a fun time, when you won't let half of this community do that...
