Depending on the match, I can make up to 4000 wp, or as little as 1500.

But you know what? I help the team as much as possible. I place uplinks in between objectives for players to spawn on to help advance the frontline. I put repair nanohives in defendable positions for players to use after battle when I'm not there to heal them myself.

As a heavy I blow up those tanks that constantly kill you guys, I defend tight positions with my HMG to cover the objective, I use my forge to take out near an objective so that we can rush in with LAVs...

I've spent my 22 million sp to be versatile, and that means I should have the ability to do other things now besides run and gun straight to the objective.

I totally understand there are a million ways to skin a cat in this game. What is going on in most of the matches is not what you are describing.

I can't help but believe these are not brand new players. I find it hard to believe we've had some sudden influx of new players.

I'm versatile as well and I love bringing 4 or 5 different roles to the battle. But one squad can't do all this on their own. These maps are just too big.

If the other team have 16 player with Roofer Madness mentality yes one squad can do anything on their own

Morathi, you are trying too hard.

Did im wrong? Anytime i play with you, you always try to win, why you defend those who doesnt care of winning?

Players will always choose the path of least resistance in getting rewards. Whether that be AFK'ing, spamming equipment for WP or other. This will never change as long as it is a viable way to gain SP and ISK.

Join the darkside and become a flank harasser! Its so much more fun to kill off the guys who get lost or try to take letters on their own. Just thinking of the rage they must feel about all the wasted effort of getting behind the lines to hack an objective only to be thwarted in their moment of glory... yeah, that puts a smile on my face these days.

Anytime i play with you, you always try to win, why you defend those who doesnt care of winning? My level of commitment is relative to my ability to impact the outcome. Generally, when we have a squad going, we can impact a match pretty well. Im not the worst player out there but I have no delusions that I could carry an entire team to victory. In my best match I was able to defend two letters the entire game but the team still lost. Personally, I found that I get less frustrated and enjoy the game more the less Im invested in the effort of the blueberries. If I find that they are WP farming and just turtling in the home objective then my focus shifts to dying the least while still having fun in the fringes. I guess Im just a Jekyll & Hyde when it comes to lonewolfing verses squading. That and you take all my kills ;)
