Why would I equate my real life philosophy to that of a video game? Therein lies your issue. Real life means something, while video games don't, which is exactly why there's no reason to be a try-hard in a video game when the loss is inevitable. Don't be a scoreboard hero.

No one is asking you to stop trying if there's still hope. They're asking you to stop being a try-hard if there is none.

Last night, someone on the fleet said,' I understand why no one tries when 'guild name' is in the match.'

I replied that people who are wussie dont try maybe. Drew a few insults and laughed it off.

After helping lowbies in my guild we logged in mains an went fer dailies and drew the 'guild' had an epic match won 4-0. They had finnished their dailys and were in kill mode. We do the same thing.. point is its fun. There arn't teams that we dont try against, we lose and we win.

People who give up are lame, people who take up a spot and cant be bothered to try are the werst part of the mmo experiance.

Why wait until 3 cap, just stop trying after one node is taken.


What a scrub

I don't PVP for points or valour or medals. I pvp, because I like fighting against other players. And because the republic needs me. Yes the game is more fun, if you let a little RP into your world.

I will never sit on a bench and let the enemy win. I shall try and take as many as I can down, help my mates survive, defend the last node and I shall make it as hard as I can for the opponents to win. Because that is a challenge, and if you run away from the challenges in a videogame, it becomes a mindles chore of grinding this and grinding that.

There are warzones that I lost that were way more fun that warzones where we steamrolled the opposition.

This thread is going way over your guys' heads.

NO ONE IS SAYING DON'T TRY.

They're saying don't be a try-hard when the loss is inevitable. Two completely different things.

Reading comprehension. Acquire it.

Edit: I feel like people don't understand the definition of inevitability.

Maybe you don't understand. People who stop trying even when the loss seems to be inevitable are ruining my playing experience.

You can argue for defender points, but it's alot better to farm a position while the flag has been capped by the opposite faction, since they will keep rushing to defend the flag.

This speeds up the game and makes it so you can get your 4 medals quite easily.


Thank you
