But this is so telling of how people are in real life. Here we have DNS controlling most of MH. What does the majority do? They just whine about it. Want CCP to step in and change it. Instead of sitting down with other mercs and pooling strength from all over the globe to at least make a stand against the DNS alliance. Just like folks in the US who complain about problems but never unite to make better changes, hoping that being a internet revolutionist with a petition from change.org can make an impact. It's quite pitiful really.
Over the last 3 weeks there has been exactly that above! Every day alliances and corporations were pooling resources to try and attack multiple districts of DNS to take them over. What happened? Besides large number of losses, DNS lost 2 districts, and large numbers of players said they would give up on PC matches because of how UNPLAYABLE it is. Every game lagged harder then ever before seen even with precautions in place (low resoultions set to PS3s, removal of unnecessary chat windows, restarting the ps3 before hand and others).
Preemptive strike against rebuttals:
- Lag is an accepted part of PC. Why? How is it acceptable when my vehicles explode in midair from absolutely ZERO enemy fire or when they hit a bump the wrong way? Why does it take me 30 seconds to cross a 10 meter road? Why do I only see what's shooting at me when I die (non-cloak kills).
- Get a better connection: I have 75mbps download speed and 30mbps upload speed. Find me a faster connection that a normal civilian like myself can get and afford.
- Play through the lag: See #1 above and kill yourself 1,000,000 times over.
- HTFU: See #'s 1 and 3 above and kill yourself a billion times over on top of #3.
- "well you're obviously not a competitive player"... really? I'm playing an FPS and have the strong urge to throttle enemies with my bare hands if I could. How can I get more competitive?
- Get better teammates if you lose all the time: Really? The best of my corporation and/or alliance and that's what you've got to say? 30mil plus SP players are crap players? **** off...
I could keep going but I'm sure that I'm just on a Soap box now and you probably don't want to read it. Or you're the idiotic trolls that you are and have already argued the above points even though I no longer give a ****.
