The following is fact, no matter how you want to spin it.

I realize your perception is your reality, and I can't change that, I'm not yo momma.

Last night clan was defending Vitric Forge and I filled in on defense to be able to get a match. I don't mind being cannon fodder.

Evil was attacking, no biggie.

However there were four or five DSX members with Davion tags.

THIS, I thought was odd as I can't count the times I've asked the DSX guys to help out on IS attack. They've declined stating, "We can't, we're Clan loyalists" over and over and over ad nauseam.

Ok, fine.

But when Evil offers you a chance at being in an OP group you run like little puppy dogs, "yes Evil, we'll attack with you" pant pant pant like good little puppies.(ok that part may not be fact but supposition on my part but I'm betting its not far off)

Not raging on anyone, I like the Evil guys(Vorteex gives Fusion a run for his money in the nice guy category" as well as the DSX gents.

But when someone asks you why you don't attack, be honest. Otherwise you seem disingenuous and lesser in the eyes of others.

See you in FW!

Yes, people cite faction loyalty primarily when it is advantageous to do so.

Welcome to human nature.

lol! dont even get me started on the 12 mans sitting on Defense; I qued up a 3 man on attack because the cue was 8-30 last night. 2 12 mans too chicken **** to fight each other they would rather sit in que rather than one side attack. Pathetic.

No no no no no, don't you dare. WE'RE THE BAD GUYS

Aww, sounds like I missed a fun match. Too much solo dropping, got skipped three times last night.

If DSx goes IS its usually: to get a match, facilitate matchmaking, to attack, or some of us to level IS mechs.

If I had my way, we would never go IS regardless of mode. Then again I'm a Clan puritan and I get outvoted by my trothkin.

Avoidance sucks, but it also sucks going against the same 24 poopsocks every single match, every single day.
We need to get back to the point that there are 300+ concurrent players in primetime.
Something needs to be done to attract more people to faction play.
And ironically, doing something about faction play would probably attract a lot of people back.

Yeah I saw that and laughed my *** off.

Just mrmike salting, move along boys nothing to see here.

The EVIL/DSX codependency is well evidenced. The propensity for teams who like to stomp pugs to be on the same side as other such teams is also well known. Not much going to change there. But for ****'s sake, instead of having 7-30 in the queue sort your **** out so we can at least get a ******* game.

PS: FAIT is a bigger cancer with their themed stay-as-far-away-from-the-front antics.

You gotta have a group to steady games.
We need more groups playing. That's the problem.
The faction play community should be rabble rousing.

It's clearly the superior game mode, that's what's so maddening about the whole situation.
Fp will get looked at, at the end of the year, maybe. W t f

From time to time I do ask in QP chat why people aren't playing faction instead. The silence hurts my ears.

I don't hide! Ask anyone on my team, it's a problem.

You mean like staying at spawn and letting the rest of the team fight:

or leaving the team heavily outgunned to defend the objective while they go spawn farm few attackers:

Stuff like this has been going on since day 1 of FP.

Nothing new to see here, carry on.

[John Bronco]

There also that 'mushroom madness' guy who I believe is trying out for FAIT.

[mrmike5234]

Wow did it get worse last night. DSX is what "BCMC" used to be for Evil. Filling out the roster for a drop.

Crimson Straight was the map and Evil and company started off with an assassin rush.

Needless to say the pugs were not ready for that and we folded quickly.

I'm sure fun was had by at least half the players involved.

[Ignatius Audene]

At least to some extend a i can understand this. It is simply much more enjoyable to play with a competent team. Herding cats for minimal result can get frustrating. I know it we most of the times only drop in max 4 man group, and it can get rly %$%^
