P14GU3 Savage Bullet 965	Posted - 2014.12.24 19:58:00 - [1] - Quote Here are some of my reasons I quit PC months ago and haven't been back since (in no particular order.) 1. Burnout.. my pc team held many districts for many months. Sometimes we had 12+ hours of battles for a single day. 2. Lack of competition. Besides the few "top corps" (basically the same 50 people) there really isnt much competition in PC. I have had better matches in pubs than against some of these so-called PC teams. 3. Lack of a team. A LOT of vets have quit this game, or at least given up on PC. Its pretty hard to find a decently organized team, that you can get along with, to do PC anymore. 4. Lack of meta. Unless you like running 1 of the 5 possible PC fits, you can't run what you WANT to run. There are still too many fits that just aren't PC competetive.. 5. Timers. No one wants to set an alarm clock to play a match.. 6. LAAAG... 7. Skirmish style maps. I hate skirmish, especially now that everyone runs a scout. Logis and fatties get stuck defending a single point, that may or may not see action.. I only play dust514ums now. It was always more fun than the actual game anyways.

I've pretty much got all the ISK I'll ever need, so I have no desire to go into PC to make less than I would if I were to just play pubs during the prep time. And I certainly wouldn't do PC for fun, because you have to put up with everyone's bs. Pubs are more fun, more relaxing, and in the end, profit is similar. IDK about you, but I never got reimbursed after my PC's with cap aq. I figure they must have billions of ISK in the corp wallet, but what are they doing with it? Certainly not distributing it amongst the members, which would be the logical thing to do IMO. Like someone else said, I'm busting my ass to make my corp's ISK increase by a fraction of a percentage, and I'm seeing none of it. I think I spent more isk (paying ringers, tank drivers, ect.) because I didnt have access to corp wallet than I made. I was also promised to be reimbursed, but sadly, it happened far too few times. I only play dust514ums now. It was always more fun than the actual game anyways.
