Next time you feel all is lost, please just leave the wz.
I see multiple comebacks every week because people like you leave and someone proper comes instead.

You're playing a Star Wars game ffs.

Saw the first couple posts, skipped most of the thread so i could quickly ask:

What kind of friggin doofus clown shoe wants the game to end faster just because they are going to lose!?!?? I WANT to play those extra couple of minutes! Hell I probably just spent ten minutes waiting for a friggin queue to pop! I WANT to play to the last second because it is FUN!

If you want to make something efficient, go organize your collection of graphing calculators dork. I'm gonna play a pvp match as long as I want!

Well, if you're a masochist then I can understand why you would like to experience that till the end.

However if they capped 3 towers that usually means they outgear your team, have more tanky chars and/or more healers (and are in a premade).

I'm not sure what you would find fun in a game where you die almost instantly, are unable to kill any opponents.

Its a mentality thing, really. Not easily debated.

Some will never give up and just finish a lost game for fun or perhaps to learn something. Others will quit to avoid what in their mind is a waste of precious time.

Perhaps RL sports should implement a similar quitting system, I mean, to save us all time. Football, soccer, tennis, hockey you name it - players should be able to quit when the chance of winning are non-exsistant, yes? Why go full time at all, it is a waste of both the audience and players time.

Can't have anyone wasting our time these days!

Don't try to be a hero and cap one of the bases, it just slows down the game.

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

^They should stop wasting our time, it's not like I play because I enjoy it.

I'd rather spend 3 minutes fighting than 2 minutes of standing around.
Even without medals.

Right, just about there is where I stopped carrying. The quickest way to Douchebag Town is by blowing steam out of your own behind. You sir just booked a first class ticket on the Douche Express rail.



In Hex Droid, I remember getting into a Civil War match only to find 4 Pubs and Imps controlling all 3 nodes with the points standing at around 300 to us while theirs were untouched. People joined the game and we fought our way to 1 node while two stealthies (including my scoundrel) took another node that they left defended by just 1 imp so they could go recapture the node lost. We won the game with about 100 points to spare. Do you understand that with team work things can actually be done?

We didn't even need to say anything to each other besides catchphrases like 'left!' and we got the job done. If you enjoy people bending over to you without a struggle then you're bound to meet the ones who like to fight back.

They do, actually. Coaches pull players when they know the game is out of reach. To all those people saying not to quit......lets try and be professional, huh?

Part of the world of sport is to deny the opposition what they want. If you are getting slaughtered and they are racking up the kills then stop attacking them. Playing dumb is only going to get them more medals. If you have some success attacking a turret then fine pour it on, but if they have not had a player die since the start of the match then you just become farm bait. I don't want to be farm bait. If they are a real good team you may be able to sneak a second turret at some time during the match but rest assured they will get it back.

They will probably get ticked off eventually when you are sitting on one turret and attack you anyway.
