support classes are bad at video games?

willing to acknowledge that some players can be good

same deal with the mass driver, can't aim? use the gun that doesn't need precision aim. (i also suspect this is why we see so much overlap between logis and mass drivers) again, as a human being, i do not shame you. i respect you for being honest with yourself and trying to contribute, instead of trying to be cool (i still hate mass drivers but i don't BLAME the guy using it.)

Ye I think the OP has a bit of a superiorety complex about themselves . Its ok if you admit it to yourself ha I cant believe the arrogance . If your a logi dont help this **** and if your a tank blow the #### out of him

EDIT*

Let me make this absolutely clear:
I am hurt and offended by your post, were it about HAV's or Logis or Bad Players. No matter.

now don't anybody flip a **** here but this is gonna be a long one, and it's gonna start kind of offensive. i wanna state that i'm not trying to insult anyone, i'm just making a point/laying out a theory.

i think most HAV drivers are just bad at videogames. (obviously this doesn't apply to everyone. last night my squad destroyed 3-4 of protoman and his squadmates tanks and he still ended up like 15/0. i remember, because it's frustrating.)

think about all the, lets face it, bad players in logi suits. maybe they came from eve, or just never played a shooter before. (i feel like dust would attract some non shooter audience) they think to themselves "man, i'm getting my ass kicked. maybe if i play a logi i can still contribute until i get my bearings here in this new type of game" and i commend them for being honest with themselves.

same deal with the mass driver, can't aim? use the gun that doesn't need precision aim. (i also suspect this is why we see so much overlap between logis and mass drivers) again, as a human being, i do not shame you. i respect you for being honest with yourself and trying to contribute, instead of trying to be cool (i still hate mass drivers but i don't BLAME the guy using it.)

red line/mountaintop snipers: also generally bad at videogames. when has one killed you once you got up on him? how often do they hold still while you pump an entire magazine and a half into them (because they're right at the edge of your range. losing a lot of damage) with just iron sights. this is not good fps behavior?


Now i am willing to acknowledge that some players can be GOOD at that stuff i listed above, so i'm not trying to paint EVERYONE with the same brush. but comon... can we just be honest here and accept that for most cases what i've said is probably true?

this takes us to HAVs. there are certainly decent HAV guys out there, but i destroyed 5 HAVs tonight, and i almost had a sixth. (credit where it's due, did NOT expect you to run from the orbital strike INTO the red line. thought you would run towards me and my squad and we'd get you. not bad. but you totally got saved by the match ending!)

NONE of the HAVs we destroyed were even so much as MOVING when we killed them... one of them was inexplicably parked on top of one of MY supply depots? (thanks by the way, i don't think i could have gotten you otherwise...)

There was a thread on here a few days ago by a guy complaining he got killed by swarms. upon further investigation he actually got killed by an enemy tank, 2 turrets, a forge gunner, some av grenades, and FINISHED OFF BY some prototype aurum swarms. and he was running a shield booster on a madrugar? is it me?

i SUSPECT that "bad" players are specing into HAVs just like they spec into logi suits, mass drivers, and redline sniping because they expect to just trade isk for success. there's a reason MOST of the tank crying we've been seeing is coming from relatively unknown names, or "new tankers"

where's noc? i think he had one complaint about orbitals being unavoidable. (he's not wrong, they pretty much are. i'll never feel bad for a tanker though; the orbital that "might" kill a tank "will" kill infantry so we've got it worse.)

where's bad furry?

where's that other guy who's been crying so little i forgot their name? (This isn't a joke there WERE other "infamous" tankers. like that guy who was using an armor tank before it was cool, like several builds ago. or who had the first black ops HAV back when those still existed?)



So yah, that's my theory. and don't get me wrong, i don't think i'm that good, i'll bust out the logi suit myself, whatever. this isn't an e-peen thing, it's a "stop demanding wins and kills just because you threw isk at it" thing.

you might just suck. and CCP can't balance around suck, because if they buff suck up to not suck; competent ends up steamrolling for 3 builds. get out of your tank, and lets have a gunfight. you can probably beat me...

im terrible at this game

but a heavy, that is totally legit and requires a ton of skill to open the fountain of bullets into enemies.

EDIT

5-10 "Packed" AV grenades.....to kill 1 sica?? WTF.

Have you used AV Grenades? let alone packed.

you might just suck. and CCP can't balance around suck

Should have just named the thread "I have a theory about players of every role."

90% of the people in any given role are trash in the eyes of top tier players. Another 9% are what would be considered average. And then there's 0.9% that are good, well before you get to the great players. It's pretty much like this in any game, but my god, I think this is the lowest skilled player base I have ever seen. It doesn't matter the role, it's rare to see someone that looks like they know what they're doing.



Yet they're trying to.

Clearly they don't know the definition of "average" then. Unless they think their .9% somehow even out with the 95% "trash"(it might though, I've seen entire squads take out entire teams). The only reason elites exist, such as the imperfects, is because there are players of lesser skills out there for them to kill. If everybody was equally skilled then it would be almost impossible for anyone to go 20/30-0 in a match. Those people are simply freakishly good and they should not hold everybody else to their standard, let alone belittle others by calling them "trash".

they have a unnecessary self worth.
they probably think CCP should pay them to play the game because of their "skills", NEET people are what you expect in an FPS, the lowest common denominator of genre.

it's not even an "arcade" FPS so it doesn't even require real skill.

Or maybe they just like tanks.

I like mechs and aerospace fighters... *looks at watch*

Waiting sucks.

I think the general point is, we'd prefer it to be balanced around our skills, not the "trash" as you put it, and lower skilled player base as I will put it.

I just used the word that Tiel Syysch used. I prefer "lower skilled", seeing as I'm one of them lol

But yeah, matches are more entertaining when you go up against people of similar skill level, and if everyone improves, then all the better.

Honestly, earlier I sat my tank on letter C in that mountain map with 3 letters blah blah.

Their entire team almost went AV, but were just terrible.

Spawned right where I knew they were going to every time, over and over until we cloned them.

It was pathetic, they should have at least spawned elsewhere then tried some tactics lol.

Long story short, I went 55/0 that match
