Title: A Radical Gameplay Suggestion
Post by: RTHolmes on February 13, 2009, 08:35:11 AM
Bish and Rooks, how about fighting each other some time rather than just ganging Nits? I know its easier going into a fight with a numbers advantage and no ENY penalty, but surely some of you need a challenge to make it fun?








No?

ok, as you were <S>

holmes   most people drift to where the action is,  if this happens to be the nit front on a large map thats where it will be.

Look at it this way, as a Nit you don't have to look for a fight it comes looking for you  ;)

Country loyal people always come up with the old the other two teams never fight each other line.  True or not it is perceived that way.

Being a side switcher, I dont complain about ganging.  Im pretty much always on the short end of the odds stick.

However, since this thread was motivated by the "gameplay" in Orange last night, I will say that, in my humble opinion, the aforementioned time period played host to the most convincing evidence, to date, that the vast majority of the player base has gone way, way, WAY beyond "dweeb."

Not even "twit" is sufficient enough to describe the mentality of the average player who logged on last night and "fought" between A8 and A9.

bruv I understand why it happens (herd mentality combined with low N-Ach), and I dont really expect it to change. still worth pointing out though I think :)

At least you are able to find a fight, gotta take what you can get I guess.

Depending on what day of the week it is, that is an All-Country conversation.  Many a Bish evening is spent with little chants on country about the Rook/Knight gangbang on us.................

But...... What makes the Knits a little sexier for us............ We only have to climb to 10k to fight you.  Those Rooks are at 30k.   :D

My squad floated around in Rook land attacking then defending our lone field & CV. If no one shows up what do we do?

Trinity will always have that uber fight which the Rooks an Nits have right now, can't remember the two fields but everyone knows it. So the third side is going where ever someone actually fights back, well 2% of us are :D.

while thats true, its undeniable that Nits have been the whipping boys this week. within 30mins of the Titanic Tuesday reset it was obvious to anyone watching the map that Bish and Rooks were only heading south. at very best there were 3/4 bases flashing on the BishRook front, and 7/8 on each of the Nits. at worst, no action at all up North. darbar told the same story.

Those Rooks are at 30k.   :D
