Every day more people post how PUGS suck or PREMADES are ruining the game blah blah blah.
I play the game for fun....FOR ME.
I could care a less about how many kills I get, or how many times I get my *** kicked.
Look at my stats...THEY SUCK ***, but I still keep coming back because I am having a blast.
I cant believe people get worked up so much over this game. It is just a game.

Troll away

That is a commendable attitude, but it doesn't work for everyone.
MWO and gaming in general constitute a more significant part of some other peoples' lives than they do yours - and given the current state of the game, well, that must suck.

the problem is that MWO and PGI's faculty talked big but when it came time to nut up they whimpered and ran for the hills.

most of us wanted a Simplified Eve-Online with Mechs, it was flaunted as a Simplified Eve-Online with Mechs, but we ended up getting a sub-WoT clone for the Dev time taken.

If PGI told us "hey, we're having some problems with the CryEngine3 coding". We'd have raged (no doubt) but not to the extent we are right now. We KNOW that the CE3 is still in testing WE KNOW that the CE3 is 10 times more technical than the previous versions. we get that. but leaving a community in the dark... especially one that is used to compile 90% of data is BAD, just horrid.

I will still play, but I'm going to grind up C-bills and playing to win until PGI Practiced what they preached, or until they close their doors.

Well two posts is all it took for someone to go off topic to complain. I'd say it's surprising but...

[bogmali]

I like the attitude OP, keep it up. For once I see a thread started without your usual QQ/Whinning/trolling.

All the players, no matter how much they complain, still enjoy the game. If not they would be gone to some other game. Most negativity is not coming from hate of the game but rather fear that the game may flop.

It is nice that you have a good time. That is the point of playing a game.

However; the game need to become even more friendly to new players and part of that is to prevent premades stomping those new players, or any pug for that matter, because not everybody feel like you do. There is lots of people that don't tolerate unfair matching. It is not fun for them. Free to pay games need fresh blood all the time so they must make sure that the game is fun for everybody.

Let's go over your post shall we:

1. You admit to being completely selfish.
2. You admit that you don't care about the game objectives.
3. You admit to be terrible at this game.
4. You show obsessivness towards the game, yet you dismiss it as something not important in the end "just a game". Looks like you aren't being honest towards yourself.

So let's sum that up; a selfish ******* who doesn't give a damn about winning the game and keeps on playing to ruin the game for others. Yeah, you got some nice attitude there. A real champ.

Don't be an ***. I have fun trying to win matches. Trying to win. Whether I actually do win or not is secondary, and I suspect that the OP would agree with me. Trying to win is perfectly in line with the objectives of the game, and you can hardly argue otherwise. The difference between you and me is that I still have fun if I lose a match, whereas if you lose a match, it was apparently all a waste of time. What do you want to do? Ban everyone with a k/d ratio below a certain value? Grow up.

Nothing in the OP suggest that he is trying to win the matches. You are just speculating as what he might have meant as I'm going with the actual content of his post. Also I found your "grow up" statement quite humorous .

Actually I am a winner in life so I don't need a video game to make up for my shortcomings in life, unlike some jarheads....

I too was thinking EVE online's sov space but with the game taking place on the planet instead of space.

Whoa there texas no reason to get all personal on the brony. There is nothing wrong with bronies, the point of this thread was that Pug's are bad and should feel bad and that Premades are the tools of the dark god of your choice (I choose Cthulu.. IA IA Cthulu Ry'leh) here to ruin gaming for all the pugs that suck who are only bad because premades are ruining the game for pugs who can't play because premades are swarming out of every corner using exploits that...... cont. Ad nauseum.

That was the point right?

I'm hoping this wasn't being used as a pejorative because it would be silly to do so. As a proud member of a respected group who claims this nickname I feel it would be more of an insult to us than to the person being called it in an insulting way. That said if you did mean it as an insult feel free to contact me for potential and uniquely creative insults to replace it.

[Thedrelle]

Wow, some critical statements here.

If you really have such a big problem with the PUG's getting in your way, get 8 people together who can stand you and tear it up in the 8V8.

oh wait, now I see your problem.

Sriously, I agree with OP. Play the game to have fun first.

Don't really need 8, 4 will do currently.

And definitely play the game for fun. A wholly commendable attitude to have. Also, one persons fun is pain for someone else and vice versa. As long as we can all enjoy while playing it(ie:have fun) in whatever terms we enjoy it, then it's successful.

I commend your positivity. The thing is not everyone can take a hit like a weeble wobble and keep on coming back for more.

[Grand Ayatollah Kerensky]

The hostility comes from the fact that pugs are bent on preventing other players from playing with their friends.

Wait... Whats being a Marine have to do with MadPanda's venom? I'm a former "Jarhead" and like You I am having a blast being a bit better than average at this game. I have made friends I will cherish til the day I die, And that is saying quite a bit about a group of Gamers who don't know me from Adam. Yet pulled together and bought me a Gaming Computer... Even though I never complained about my 7-12 frames per second!
