Hate to tell OP, but honor among players mostly died with R&R. Funny enough, your's was a common complaint among table top players too. People wanted to have the fancy toys, but did not want to play like true Clanfolk. Granted, if you were acting in attacking or defending a world on House Steiner's behalf and you do not have a permanent faction alignment with the same, other than lying about granting you Zellbrigen (an unclan like action in and of itself), they were acting in accordance with standing Clan Ghost Bear policy during and after the invasion. Namely, Zellbrigen was never to be offered to mercenary forces.

For those units that offer Zellbrigen, I commend you for your honor.

Roleplaying in an online game that is a shooter, NO it will not happen.

Of course it does. I myself role play a backstabbing suicidal maniac that just won't die.

Or is that in real life? :unsure:

Well, you don't fight, lose, and then demand Zellbrigen. It doesn't work like that anyway.

lol honor in video games.


We used to have one, or i was lucky to have been playing better games with better people. I remember in 99 how a Predator wouldnt use the disk because it was unfair or how if someone pulled a knife in a fps toward another dude then the other dude would pull out his knife and everyone would let them and sometimes watch. It helped that back then we could vote kick and such.

Just an FYI, but that clan's actions are consistent with lore. Zellbrigen is a code of fighting for clans versus honorable opponents. They did not deem you worthy of being granted zellbrigen due to the dishonor of Steiner.

That's what happens when multiplayer games start dangling the carrots of stat-tracking, in-game "progression", and better payouts for the winner.

All older games used to have was a scoreboard keeping track of kills, points, and sometimes deaths. And it wasn't persistent, it reset every match.

I dont think these guys are Brazillians... look like someone using google translator with Portuguese enabled. Also, very shame on you OP to consider all Brazillians players to be bad gamers based on one experience.

Edit: based on the screen shot posted, their pings doesnt look like a BR player (usually around 130-200 in NA servers)
So if is in fact a team with bad behavior or cheating, pretending to be Brazillians, I, as Brazillian will report then on the spot...
