while op complaint is kinda childish he also right - people are ignorant to anything they even slightly dislike or not understand.

this is also main problem with %mech build or weapon% for example - i dont need your skills and knowledge and dont care about your performance - it killed me so lets call haxxx and nerf it.

So we should stop shooting each other and simply beeline for the capture square.

How bloody fun is that? Im going inte battle scrap it out into fierce mech to mech combat - not sneak around and stand in a square for X minutes until I 'win'

[Shiney]

I play this game to shoot mechs.

[Ghogiel]

Just kill it and get into the next match for maximising cbill to time investment.

[Alexa Steel]

...really? You created a thread about this? Because you did not get your 7.500 Cbills and the what 50xp? FWP right there.

Dont worry..lol
If ever I am on your side OP, that wont be a concern. I'll already have capped (15% cap acc ftw) before a last kill

"dont kill the afk'er, lets cap and get more money!!!!!"

how hard is it to understand that??

i made 5 out of the 7 kills and these monkeys kill the afk'er after i repeatedly asked them not to.

grrrrrrrr

Your attitude sucks. I am not surprised that people don't listen to you.

actually, you play this game to make cbills... period, without cbills you couldnt play. but nice egotistical response though

Actually, I play this game to have fun. Oh, have I mentioned that your attitude sucks? If I haven't, your attitude sucks.

Reading a lot of the posts here helps me to understand mostly why pugs are so incredibly stupid and worthless on a team. What pugs really need is a free-for-all mode because they are completely unsuited for team play. They only care about themselves and their meaningless stats and their personal bank account. Yea **** that guy for wanting to make some more cbills from a cap an help everybody else make more cbills as well. You act like 7.5k is a tiny amount, but multiply it by 8. That's quite a bit of cash, but of course you don't give a damn because it all doesn't go into your wallet.

I'll finish this rant with a story. Yesterday we had some douchebag trying to kill the last enemy while my team was capping out. We repeatedly told him to stop and he refused. I gave the command and my entire team opened fire on his stupid ***. Tk'd him before he could finish off the enemy. We got our cap, and that's not the only time I've given that order.

I recommend that everybody who encounters this issue do the same thing. If your team is capping and some dumb son of a ***** refuses to cease fire, TK him.

Yeah that showed him... . Riiiiiight, you really think so? Dont make me laugh.

Hey, we said stop. He didn't listen. Wasn't about "showing him" it's about getting the outcome we choose. Our team was superior to his puny self, so we decided the outcome, not him. Simple as that. pugs whine about how the 4-mans never include them in strategy but as soon as we start calling shots they up and ignore us. They want to act like children, we treat them like children by giving them a little spanking and a higher repair bill when they can't act right. They don't want to play on a team I will remove them from the team.

I would do the exact same thing to my own teammates if they refused to follow orders, and they all know that.

Yeah keep telling you that

You don't get it do you?

PGI Is forcing us to play with pugs. We really REALLY don't want to. I would Rather play straight 4v4 matches than play against/with pugs. The majority of pugs are that terribad.

The least you could do is follow orders so as not to make the experience even worse for everybody.

Yes, poor you, everyone should play the way YOU do - why cant everyone ELSE understand that...

Matchmaking will most likely fix that. But please, stop gettign so **** about your superior team play until there is an actual community warfare that WARRANTS such a playstyle.

I get enough of that in EVE online and it is useful (and mostly needed) in Planetside 2 - games with full working community warfare and not (in its current state) WoT/TF2/COD/BF3 playstyle mech simulator.

I remember when PGI was forcing pugs to play against 8-man premades.
I look forward to 8-man teams coming back and look even more forward to premades being matched up with premades and leave the pugs to fight themselves.

It's not that much money to be honest.

You could probably get more C-bills and xp from the damage dealt and the kill shot, not to mention salvage.

Oh yes, my team and I have no problem hunting down people who decide to run off and hide.
If your team gets a nice repair bill, so will you.

grrrrrrrr

Obviously you care about your kill count, maybe they do as well?

People have a number of different goals when playing.

Some are grinding Cbills
Some are grinding Exp
Some are playing cautiously for their K/D
Some just want to blow **** up.

Also. cap victory = 5k-7.5k cbills. Properly salvaged mech = ~20k cbills. Its clear that out of the above 4 scenarios, 3/4 promote killing that last mech as a benefit to the entire team. the other 1/4 (grind exp) benefits the individual who kills him.

20k x8 is quite a bit of cash as well. capping is more for newbies or if your forced into it to counter cap or because your down 2-6 and they only have slow stuff.

I dont follow orders from some bigshot who thinks hes the leader.

I DO follow orders from someone who makes sense and has some manners. Your attitude alone, is enough to know what you believe of the rest of your "team".

What would you mean by that? So if I said, "Stay together guys, move to E5 and wait." would you follow me? If you were asking for please and thank you, I unfortunately won't have time for that. I give orders so that we can all win, not to express my teams superiority over PUGs.

I'm not insulting you but there have been plenty of times when I have give orders in a concise but nice way and was ignored. This results in a huge pain for me and the rest of my team. We may win but I would be happier if everyone cooperated so 4 of us don't have to net 2 kills or more a piece to get the job done.

Reasons to kill afkers:

- Because afk is bad and you want to give the afker some repair cost.

- Because it increase your score. MO is a competitive game, and you want a high score to show you're not a freeloader, and that you have a good loadout.

- Because you like to shoot at things.

- Because you don't want to waste time. Time which could mean more money because of more matchs.

- Because the one who asked not to speak like a jerk, and you want to **** him off.



Reasons not to kill afkers:

- Because you want to gain some utterly insignifiant amount of money, in a way that probably doesn't even make you earn money (see time/salvage argument).

You might do that, but believe me, there are alot of douchbags out there who literally BARK orders at you, accompanied by colorful words like "pugscum" or "stupid pug". Those are the guys no one wants to play with.

I have seen people do that, which is why I made the effort to warn people in my Merc Crop not to do stupid things like that. Obviously there is animosity between premades and PUGs, understandably, but this should not result in name calling.

This is not an accurate representation of a premade, I can assure you. It happens however, every community has it's bad apples.
