Hi guys. A casual 20m SP dustie here.
I just had my daily match, and got stomped again. So far so normal. Instead of de-pressurize by a juicy rant, I want instead to use my rage and hate and despair, and channel it productively.
What is your best tactic, when you get stomped?
Mine was so far to get into solo scout/sniper mode, keep putting an uplink infrastructure around a chosen objective and snipe guard it. If the enemy chooses another place to milk the team for WP and ISK, I make a quick hack and gtfo. So I want to die as little as possible, just to not give them the kills. In domination and ambush I dont see any chances, so the only thing left is sniping (now that the forge is a non-entity the only thing left for that is the SR). But I see that this is lame, so are there any other alternatives to go 1/15 and get so annoyed that you wont ever play again?

As an alternative to this you could always spawn camp them at a CRU/uplink. Nothing upsets a protobear more than being spawn killed. Chances of you winning a match while playing solo is slim to none, unless you just so happen to be on a team with mostly full squads.
Winning is not the important thing for me. I just want to have a fun fight. In my experience that is, the more even the match is, the more fun it is. And I have made a promise to myself: Never quit a match because of getting stomped. Find a way to adjust instead, find a tactic that is fun and viable.
So today I didnt play solo, but that just made it worse, because the squad did tend to stick together and got wiped that much easier. 6 casuals < 6 proto-corpmates (molon labe, btw), every time. So guerilla seems to work better the more fragmented it is, because the only way to stand a chance is quick-hacking. Killing seems to be out of the question.

Well, the thread will not be interesting to you, just skip over it.
I try to find a balance between my preferred play style and the forces of my surroundings.

Some interesting suggestions so far. But few I havent thought of yet.
Has anyone something unusual for me? I mean sure, militia redline sniping and shotty cloak is fun, because the rage it entices in some not as resilient as us casuals, and for the lolz. But I mean something really unconventional.
But I see, it seems for the casual player there is little alternative to solo scouting when stomped.

Good stuff, yeah. Some times one Uplink seems to be enough to be the king of losers... thats what we can profit of.
I guess I want to make one point with this thread to all newberries: Dont just run headless into the meatgrinder. Dont make gifts to the pub-stompers. Dont give them an easy farm. Be elusive. Give them a bleak and boring swamp of a battlefield. If the odds are stacked against you, work around it.

For the last few days I played less and less. Today I couldnt even bring me to start a match. turned the PS3 on, turned Dust on, sat there, played a match through in my mind, turned the PS3 off. Im just out of beer, so theres a serious problem with this particular tactic 
But yeah, I will get myself a nice timeout and reserve my motivation for the SP-boost weekend coming.

Posts like this are, though pretty funny (lol) not helpful. Please specify what exactly this proper squad is supposed to do, if the stomp is going on against them.
If your reply is "stomp them back" ... please specify the tactics for doing that.
... These comments kinda remind me of "just stop being poor".
the incredible stupidity, lol
