TranquilBiscuit ofVaLoR F.T.U. IMMORTAL REGIME 1425	Posted - 2014.02.10 16:07:00 - [1] - Quote i was in a match recently with a corp that i forgot the name of. maybe it was dragon-age or dragone-empire or something like that, but anyway, they were a pretty cool group of guys, except for one kid who sounded like he was no older than 10. i understand 10 year old logic can be very flawed, but i was just awe-struck at the amount of stupidity this kid was spewing. we were playing a domination and most of us were scouts, except for him. the enemy got the point, and we all kind of separated and started doing our thing. after a while, i hear this kid start insulting his own corpmates saying, "am i the only one with half a brain around here?", or "how many times do i have to say cover me while i'm hacking!" they tried to explain to him that he couldn't expect scouts to "cover him" from heavies and proto stacked assaults, but he didn't want to hear any of that. he just kept trying to solo hack the objective, running STRAIGHT PAST enemies expecting us to cover him when we are no where near him. needless to say, this kid who thought he knew what he was doing proceeded to go 1/17 and effectively rage quit. i don't think i've ever seen a more useless squadmate in my entire time playing DUST...

Denak Kalamari Intaki Liberation Front Intaki Prosperity Initiative 1057	Posted - 2014.02.10 16:22:00 - [5] - Quote The blueberry and greenberry terms are just useless, everyone can be an idiot regardless of what color their dot is. I've went into matches often times alone, which would make me a blueberry, and still work well to benefit the team and win the game ultimately, and I often score on the top of the scoreboard. Equally, greenberries can be annoying and clueless idiots who have no concept of teamwork. Sure, there are always going to be those people who just go sniping right away and get one kill the entire match, and those who completely ignore you when you're in need of a revive even in safe places, but both squad members and non-squad members are prone to do this. The reason why your average non-squad member seems to be more stupid and/or clueless is because they might be part of another squad, following their own orders which might look useless to you, but serve to benefit his squad. Or in case of unsquadded players, they usually go do their own things as there is no one to guide them. A blueberry can't know that people are coming without a squad member using an active scanner, leaving him oblivious to danger and quickly killed because he got no warning at all aside a vague "You have been scanned" message before dying. Without this kind of information, they are often left clueless as to what to do and where to go to be the most effective, so they just wander around aimlessly trying to find something to kill. When you keep dying over and over again to organized players, even if they're not protostomping, many of them resort to sniping because then they can minimize the risk of death and still have something to do. People usually determine the value of a non-squad member on the limited information they're given from the few glimpses they saw him in battle, and the scoreboard result at the end of a match. Someone who only got 25 warpoints and died 20 times may seem like a waste of clones, but he could have just been trying to defend a heavily contested objective and kept being slaughtered by better equipped and skilled players. There's a lot of information you don't know about the people you see on the scoreboard, and low scores don't always mean that they're bad players. But MCC shooters and redline missile installation campers are still idiots, as are the people the OP described.

The point of Dom is take the objective and hold it; not prance around the map getting ninja kills that doesn't even effect the tide of battle. Edit: A squad is supposed to help each other out, not do their own thing. That's why you're in a squad and if you don't want to help them out then you should be running solo. Support Orbital Spawns

Nothing Certain Villore Sec Ops Gallente Federation 207	Posted - 2014.02.10 16:51:00 - [10] - Quote Last night I had the same experience only opposite. I was squadded up with a couple of vets who were obviously good, they both had good scores, like 19-0, but our team kept losing. A big part of that was because they were hunting snipers and spawn camping instead of taking and holding the objective. Your kid might have been stupid but I'd trade the two I had for him any day. Because, that's why.

Lucrezia LeGrand 305	Posted - 2014.02.10 18:56:00 - [15] - Quote a squad of good scouts can be very scary. I've seen a couple in dom run to the other side, hack all installations, then take out droplinks, leaving the enemy flanked, and vulnerable. Red berries held the objective, but with no outside support and were essentially ducks in a barrel and quickly wiped out. That said, I love clueless blueberries. they're kind of cute in a noob sort of way. But a clueless greenberry with a mic that rage quits? ugh.. that would make me rage quit. Thale groupie

I'm pretty sure I know who your talking about a few months back he added me as a contact and would constantly try to get me and a few other players he thought were good into his corp by spamming mails and chat channels every once in a while those other people were convincing him to stop but he just wouldn't listen. Then later he joined a corp called Dragon-Empire and wanted me to join, but at this point I was annoyed and just ignored him. I have seen him on the scout channel recently but I'm pretty sure he does run scout

No, we understand that but flanking in objective based modes is only useful when it enables the capture of the objective or routing of the enemy trying to capture the objective from your team. Neither of which were apparently happening in the match being discussed. 2. Sure it's viable in ambushes where it's only kill or be killed. But in an objective based mode when that squad can't capture or assist in the capture of the objective and defend or assist in the defense of the objective then that squad is not viable; it's just useless dead weight. And in the match being discussed he clearly states that his squad of scouts couldn't do anything about the objective. If they want to play an objective based mode then they should play for the objective; if they just want to play for kills then they should play ambush. However I don't expect a group of scouts to capture and hold an objective, What I do expect is when a persons role is useless in the current situation that they don't say it's not my fault that I'm useless and then point the finger at someone else.

First mistake was not working a unified squad in using the kid as a bait +50 generator. Second mistake was not deploying twenty remote explosives to create a minefield to kill the enemy. Third mistake was place the blame on someone else. Each scout has the potential to drop four remote explosives time 5 scouts is 20 remotes around the objective thats a OHK on one or multiple enemies and thats per remote explosive. I see five scouts that are to blame here and not some newberry. Hope this helps. Abandon Ship!, Abandon Ship!! Jumps into escape pod! Selected destination Planet PS4.

And "kill him kill him kill him" whilst he rest of us were preoccupied with his redberry friends. I was rolling a logi suit for the squad so I had my hands full with a repper and injector and the kid proceeded to say I was almost as useful as he was.....I finished 5/4 800 ish WP.....he finished with 350 WP and went 4/7......

What if I said a squad doesn't need 5 Assaults or 5 Logis? Just because you say it doesn't mean it's true. Scouts are useful, if you use them right, and in great numbers they can devastate the enemy team. If you said that I would agree, a squad doesn't need 5 assault or 5 logis and are kind of limiting themselves. Because sometimes you need a heavy soaking up damage and sometimes you need a scout flanking and etc.... I'm not saying that scouts aren't useful and I'm not saying that in great numbers they can't devastate the enemy. What I'm saying is that in the match Biscuit is bitching about this kid being useless in his 5 scouts were just as useless because they couldn't or wouldn't do jack squat to help take the objective.

Yan Darn DUST University Ivy League 181	Posted - 2014.02.11 15:42:00 - [58] - Quote Just to interject needlessly... I've been with a scoutly squad recently and they run Dom - at first I was like 'WTF?' (Especially since I encountered these guys in skirmish all the time). However it can work. First, try to keep in mind - scouts just can't work as a team. It's like the ninja paradox - when there is a horde, they drop by flies, but individually they are unstoppable. Or whatever. Anyway, point being they can't 'hold the line' or push forward as such, or really provide covering fire (how do I cover someone 30m away with a shotgun? \/0\/ ) but they can exploit opportunities better than others - this means a squad of scouts often end up doing roughly same thing anyway, since they often spot the same weaknesses in enemy formations. In Dom, defensive and offensive lines are bigger than a single squad - too much really for single or couple of scouts to disrupt, especially since the reds will have CRUs and a zillion uplinks supporting them. A squad of scouts will tear through enemy 'supply lines' and then can approach an enemy line separately - enough to draw attention to one particular scout in one direction, so that by the time another arrives from a different direction, the reds are suitably distracted looking for the other. In the mean time the blues can roll in to crush the line or take the objective while the reds are distracted by a few scouts. It's hard to explain to non-scouts but hopefully somebody gets what I'm trying to say. You probably don't know me. But next time you get gunned down or exploded by a Valor scout...check the name.
