test to see if you are an idiot

Re: test to see if you are an idiot

Someone ressed you, big deal. You respawn in 15 seconds anyway, no need to lose sleep over it. The idea that by being ressed I am endebted to someone in a video game beggars belief. I revive people regardless of who they are, and what they have done/going to do to my game experience before or after that instant, and I don't expect recompense for that. If you do, well, that explains why you've got a bee in your bonnett 90% of the time I've encountered you, in game or via post. Somebody needs some sunshine.

A simple poll skewed linguistically - even the title "test to see if you're an idiot" indicates you have an axe to grind. How about not belittling those who choose to vote against what you believe is appropriate game practice in the very poll itself, then it would look very much less like the chip on your shoulder is actually a massive potato.

I can't wait for the latest edition of "Forces(UK)'s guide to the battlefield", where you have to ask permission from your enemy before you put a grenade between his legs. If you don't, you're not a "decent" person, or, you're an IDIOT, despite the fact that it's of no-consequence due to it being a video game.

But really, it is AMAZING the amount of toss people come out with to justify how seriously they take a video game.

I see this magnificent horse, ridden by a cantankerous toddler crying bong-water from every orifice, about to be ploughed by one of King Edward's finest.

Rage more please.

Re: test to see if you are an idiot

I'd probably let him take the guy, but I'd be ready just in case he blows the shank and the guy kills him.

My biggest issue, however, is the guy that resses you while the walker that just killed you is still sitting right there. So instead of spawning back as an engi, both you and General Medic get wasted again. But hey, he got his points - whoo hoo.

I wasn't aware that battlefield 2142 was turning into the knights of the round table 2142.

Tough talk. There are already too much overblown ego's in this match. A little bit more sports attitude can't hurt. I would let the knifer finish his job, if he fails, I will do it for him... "spassiba". And let's continue the game, purleeeze.

Lolyn, once again you're let yourself carry away far too much in your argumentation. So please follow your own argumentation:

Re: test to see if you are an idiot

idk i mean of course im going to be a bit nicer to someone that makes the effort to revive me but i want the gun kill as much as they want the knife kill. ok some guy gets pissed at me for popping some guy that he was chasing around trying to knife. then i tell him "look at the tear streaming down my cheek for you"

you gotta have the mentality that YOUR fun is YOUR fault. its up to YOU how well you do, what knife kills you get, how much fun you have ect. sometimes this mentality will take some heat and you will really want to blame other people for your misfortunes but in all reality its only up to you.

You miss the point - I just don't see how it's at all a big deal to kill somebody in a game orientated around shooting people, much less to be called an idiot for it. So what if somebody on your team was going to knife him, and so what if he revived you? Just play and get on with it. Also, I don't take the game seriously, I take the way certain people like to debunk the ethos of gaming seriously.

and l33t, you aren't to know what's carried away as far as I'm concerned. If I'm going to say something I usually make a 3 course meal out of it. That's me, and I'll do it if it's an debate/argument, helping somebody out, or just rambling. Keep your advice to yourself and stop playing teacher :)

Re: test to see if you are an idiot

It's all about fun in teh game, Lolyn and yes Forces' idiot is a bit overdone (I'd rather say partypooper), but so's is you referring to the Angry German Kid. When I draw a knife and my opponent is responding to that, the adrealine gets gets going and those are the exciting moments I love in the game. Then, when another player is shooting one of us is just a big disappointment and no sport as the Brits say. Heck, life is serious enough already.

...and me playing the teacher is a bit hypocrite coming from you, Lolyn (not that it's bad all the time....)

Re: test to see if you are an idiot

No, throwing a tantrum is something toddlers do. It usually involves screaming and flailing arms etc.

This, by contrast is a simple poll.

Re: test to see if you are an idiot

maybe he wouldnt get the knife kill.......he'd miss the kill cuz of high-ping.....bad net-code...right Shurikane?......and maybe he didnt even revive you in the first place...it was simply an ACT OF GOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:dead::shock::dead:

Nice to see there are at least 10 other non-lamers, though. :)

Re: test to see if you are an idiot

i don't give a rat's a$$ honestly, if someone is within range to get killed by me, then i'll kill him.

Re: test to see if you are an idiot

well you are not in that specific group forces... if you would play with everyone, and didnt left when you were loosing or better people got on, you could maybe considder yourself member of the group non lamers...

Lamer? For stealing a knife kill in an online game?

I guess he takes the game seriously enough that he disconnects everytime someone good comes on.

Re: test to see if you are an idiot

i don't care if i was revived or not. If someone is in a knife fight and it takes more than 3 swings, i am going to kill him for you. I probably just saved your life anyway so you should thank me :)
