If you think this video is about meta vs anti-meta, you should watch it again. I'm not against the metagame, so don't assume that just because I think AWOXing is overrated, I want the game to be Call of Duty. Jesus Christ.
Sorry in advance for the language. I've been doing NyQuil shots with beer chasers for the past two days. I was kinda out of my mind.
In this video I discuss why AWOXing is not effective for the long haul and is a technique with an overall negative outcome. And sorry to Jenza...
Any input from you guys?
Will you run against Iron Wolf Saber in the next council election? |

If you want to AWOX do it right. Actually infiltrate a group and steal intel, gain directorship and clean them out. Kick everyone from corp before a PC match. Clean the corp account. Steal clone reserves and plant them on your side. Just joining a PC match and talking smack and team killing is petty HALO bs. I attribute it to getting a full Warthog and driving it off a cliff. There is no emergent gameplay here. There is no amazing tactics involved. Just petty silliness.
You're assuming that there aren't people doing that *right now* but just aren't advertising that fact.
I am pretty someone has an alt in my alliance right now for the sole purpose of keeping an eye on me because of the stuff i have written in these here forums.
Is getting other Corps and alliances to waste resources in spying on you considered Meta? |

You're assuming that there aren't people doing that *right now* but just aren't advertising that fact. I know there are people doing just that, and I am not against it. I'll even support it. But what these other people are doing in PC matches right now, it's not even in the same vein. And the way they are celebrating it like it is some huge accomplishment just irks me. Oh I got onto a team and then shot them all, I'm so talented.... Give me a break.
Eh?
It does not bother me so much as how it is all wrapped up with the Council. There are serious problems with DUST and the council is dicking around with this crap.
DS 10 nailed it when he said this is an FPS and the focus should be on getting that FPS right. Yes there will be meta nothing wrong with meta but when our community reps focus on a broken game mechanic and try desperately to turn into some sort of super spy feature when they should be taking notes about actual broken FPS game mechanics then it just gets stupid.
Also i think Dust needs more sand box features in it for real meta. AWOX is pretty weak sauce when CCP could actually make district infiltration and sabotage game play....which would you rather have...BetaMax clicking invites into a PC match or an FPS PvP stealth game?
Hell i would rather have a virtual pub in local where people can play spy.
Real good emergent meta can only really be good when we have a a real sand box with a crap ton of features. (go play PvP on a clan/seige based minecraft server and you will see real emergent Meta in a sandbox)..AWOX just feels like so much kludge and clicking on boxes. |

Note: for those thinking of laughing at Meta in minecraft PvP. On one server i was offered a cyber skype from a women (ie boobs) to give up my clan's base location. AWOX and EvE Meta seem weak in comparison to me.
So... They should focus on fixing the FPS by taking a massive amount of dev time away and devoting it to non-fps enviroments and game types, and you can't figure out how to install skype and back room deal with the big boys so CCP has to make a scale mockup of the Mos Eisley Cantina for you since your sense of imagination and originality has been atrophied beyond recognition? I think the problem isn't the game, but that you're not actually playing it.
Perfect Golden Brilliance.
This is exactly what i said and exactly what i mean.
I should get you to write my posts for me.
