this is aimed more toward the snipers that end a full skirmish match with less then 5 kills and the annoying AFK squads hiding on the MCC. but yea once you have more them 3 snipers its kindof hard to hold on to any point none the less then cap anoughter and actually win without a ton more work on everyone else. i snipe sometimes and if i feel there is to many snipers on my team i don't keep on sniping, i go out and pick up points and control them.

This game currently is devoid of the capacity to fight as a team. Unless you go way out of your way. The best in game mechanics (and that is sort of a stretch but stick with me) are squad based. I literally don't care about anyone save who is in my squad for the most part.

There may be snipers sucking out there on my team, but I would never know. I worry about me or my squadmates and the GAME just plays itself out. Win lose.. I just have fun.

It's just plain dumb with these players salivating about killing or messing up people on their team. Go find another game. Or hell, a life outside the game. It's sadder than sad with this crapola. The OP should feel like a tool, because nothing about this thread is anything other than his personal invitation to his toolbox mentality. I lol the most that this is based off of the advice from some moron with a podcast. HAHA.. I mean, a podcaster?! ... haha.. lame.

Breakin Stuff Immobile Infantry 681	Posted - 2013.02.26 22:40:00 - [1] - Quote For those of you too lazy to listen to the podcast where Cerebral Wolf explained this in detail: stand next to your cowardly teammates, the more the merrier. cook grenade. do not let go. Explode violently and take them with you. enjoy the rage. It takes two militia locus nades to do this, but don't worry. Most people don't react to this. If you have an AFK bunny do the same! if they don't respawn manually they get booted from the match, and lose the ability to farm their SP! it's kinda like a variant of the votekick system. I highly encourage people to enjoy this unless CCP declares it an exploit and bans it or if they patch this out. Of course... it may be an intended feature and they had an office betting pool on how long it would take us to find it... Tinfoil hats for everyone!

As a sniper that fights from extreme distances including the redline occasionally this slightly upsets me. Only slightly. You know there are some of us out there that are actually pretty decent at what we do. Don't paint us all with the same brush.

You know there are some of us out there that are actually pretty decent at what we do. Don't paint us all with the same brush. I personally only do this when my team gets redlined. Then all bets are off. So if my team drops their ARs, their HMGs, their mass drivers and start kill farming from the redline because they lost already? I will motivate you. Or I will destroy your fits. You'd be surprised at how quickly many pubmatches turned back into a fight after it became clear that hiding wasn't safe either. Oh. and Your Name Here. I'd suicide gank him for a klondike bar.

Don't paint us all with the same brush. agreed just because you cant here the sniper since team is not a default voice for all people (give us proxy at least gosh darnit) you dont know if the sniper is calling out enemy positions to his squadmates or if he's locking down an objective. (a decent sniper with a decent gun can lock down two objectives on manus peak with relative ease)

I believe the exploit for crushing your own teammate with an LAV is still valid. absolutely not. when it works (and it does, you have to do it right) you kill a blueberry. you get -50 warpoints as a penalty. I have tested this probably ten times, always when redlined with snipers coming out of the woodworks, and occasionally because I see something expensive in the hands of someone on my team, get jealous and have an uncontrollable urge to scream "IF I CAN'T HAVE THAT NO ONE CAN!!!!!" But yeah you can kill blueberries. For best result if they are standing be standing. if they are kneeling pop a squat, drool on yourself, smear your cheeto dust from your fingers on your shirt and watch the fun as a blueberry ragdolls. it takes two militia locus nades to kill a blueberry in a militia or standard fit.

I love when people rage on me for sniping.. I always check and see their 0/3+ KD and here I am at the #1 slot for our team. But! because I am sniping it's somehow a problem that made them suck? INstead of shooting at me, or trying to LAV ramming me and worsening your stats in the meantime, why not fight? Join my squad... er no. Actually, I only like people who add WPs to my squad. I don't need any butt hurt charity cases. At least do yourself a favor and make sure the sniper you are ******* with sucks. Otherwise you are just embarrassing yourself. It's been systemic that anytime someone messes with me when I am sniping they have far more deaths than kills and 100 WPs or so. Instead of being obsessed with how others play, why not get good yourself and help the team win? TKing does nothing to help win. But I guess butthurt nerds with nothing else to offer will act accordingly. That's cool by me! I lol at your expense :)

Don't worry folks, i always start my squad charging like lemmings to slay the other team and cap objectives. It's only when despite all our good efforts, average squad WP total of 4k+ and we still get redlined do I set my evil minions free to scourge the weak. But i'm the nice one. I don't believe my brothers feel quite so... restrained. and on a more asinine note, I prefer AFKers as my victims. they're worthless and need to make way for people who contribute. Enjoy the timeout and no-SP in the spawn screen. And I don't care about YOUR NAME HERE and his tank. last time I saw it I nuked it with an assault forge gun. Was not hard.

In fact, the blueberries in question showed no damage. for best results: if they're standing, stand behind them. If they crouch, do the same. You pretty much have to be spooning them. if you start the throwing animation it won't work. If you don't die...neither will they. This is why It's called a suicide gank. if you succeed you will be rewarded with -50 warpoints and a feeling of satisfaction, or feeling dirty. You will come to recognize both as pretty much the same thing. Nascent and unnecessary guilt for success.

Ganking whiners is a free service to the gamer community. Killing whiners is pretty much my idea of a good time. convince him to be in his HAV whenever he sees me so I can give him something to really complain about. Forge gun + HAV + good position usually results in nerf forge gun posts inside 30 minutes in my experience. I use the tears to spice my burbon. Especially since I started using proto forge guns. People get absolutely livid when you three-shot a gunnlogi.
