Sound familiar?
How about you wait until a few weeks into 1.8 before you start imposing your proclamations of OP on the rest of us. |

No in most games I'd agree but CCP has a has a track record that is far too consistent to ignore with DUST.
And they keep making the same mistakes, that's the most hilarious part.

IDK, I still think it is funny that most of the self-proclaimed "elite" need to rely on the most broken mechanics in the game to prove that they are "elite".
If I am a scrub because I don't go full PRO every match then so be it. If I am a scrub because I don't skill into Logi gk.0 just because you can stack nearly 1000 armor on it, so be it.
If I am a scrub because I've adapted to the current AV situation and use jihad jeeps, so be it. If I am a scrub because I like RE fishing for PRO dropsuits and the FoTM "elite", so be it.

We're in agree!pment, actually. Jihad jeeps are using the mechanics of the game in unintended ways to win.
Saying that jihad jeeps are OP or lobbying to have REs slide off vehicles because you insist there is only one right way to AV is the problem. |

I've been called a scrub for both pairs.
Seemed appropriate to me.

My only problem with you is the CRU/Uplink camping, not because Im an 'elite' infact I'd probably class myself as a care bear.
Its just a terrible thing to do to new defenceless redberries who think spawning is safe, leave that **** outa pubs man.

Think of Dust like a Japanese game show.
It isn't intelligence that is rewarded, but stupidity that is punished.
Granted, maybe the first one is uncalled for, but if they keep spawning there knowing that I am there waiting to kill them?
They deserve the punishment.
Also, IMHE, most of the "elite" are carebears, they may say they want a challenge, but they really want kills handed to them on a silver platter.
