The Big Issue?
Posted: 16 Dec 2008, 21:59
Someone said to me yesterday "seems only noobs playing dx these days"
But actually I think it is newbs, total noobs, nubs and a few very good vets, players like me are rare, most people are either a lot better than me or a lot worse.
The biggest problem seems to me, that games are not even anymore and even when there is opportunity to even the teams, both vets and noobs refuse to do it.
I was aliasing on altfire, MTX asked the newest player to even up the teams, he simply refused and was being a male sex organ. I logged in and switched him, he was surprised. I told him that he would be banned if he imbalanced teams again. Seems harsh? Or seems we and RTK and others need to get tough.
Another game today, was Grimreaper and Hey v total noobs and semi-noobs like me... hardly fair is it...
I'm starting to care about teams very much, I notice ppl leaving before end of game etc, people care about their scores, and only a few players are willing to play in an unfair situation and lose.
I suggest getting really tough with people who wont balance teams. I suggest RTK do it too... it's just a case of training people, until it is a habit and they see it is important.
