Why do people run from MCOMS?

Re: Why do people run from MCOMS?

I'll reply to the author, as I can't be asked to read this whole thing.

A lot of people cover the people defusing the M-Coms. No point defusing the M-Coms if you keep getting killed repeatedly by the same sniper. Somebody needs to take care of the 16 other players trying to end your life prematurely.

M-Coms only need 3 people to defuse (As 2 can be taken out too easily and 3 is just a good number).

The problem with that line of thought is that everybody wants to be the one doing the covering, while nobody is doing the actual defusing

Yea the CG for me is still TF2.

Re: Why do people run from MCOMS?

Maybe, but I wouldn't be staying long on a server where that happens. Is sounds just about as funny as if all one side used was the CG. Or maybe a team that was GL only.

For that matter, imagine 16 medics moving as one herd of lemmings, doing nothing but reviving each other until they are close enough to de-defib you.

Haha That would be ****ing nice! I'd support the medic-lemmings and join 'em if I could.
But I have to agree on those CG players. They annoy the **** out of me. It's just boring dying from CG all the time. I don't mind any other weapon in this game. But I do mind the CG. Make it anti-tank only pls. Direct hit kills.

Re: Why do people run from MCOMS?

I for one could not care about my KDR, although I do stay near by a M-com to defend while the rest try to hold the other side back from even getting close. Was on this one server, and all the other team will do is mortor attack the M-Coms, then the buildings would collapse. Other team would win all rounds in attacking the m-coms. But when in servers that the other team does go in to activate the M-coms, their is always chances of getting sniped. Majority of the time, snipers or/and many is going to become a M-com defenders while it is activated. Trying to deactivate the M-coms is not an easy task. Holding the E key is time consuming, and a good chance of getting hit. Half of the time, pressing E doesn't show deactivating.

Yea but its not easy with FF off especially as you only need one person to mortar the base to allow a group of the same team to walk in unharmed. I dont really understand the lack off FF in this game though. There is far less retardation, far less grenade spam yet still FF is off.

Re: Why do people run from MCOMS?

I see that happening a lot now, though i seem it as a legit tactic as you to defend the base to your up-most ability.

Re: Why do people run from MCOMS?

Just played a round where every single member of my team was a sniper using either a rifle or a shotgun. Our team managed to plant on all the MCOM's and the way they stopped people defusing was to spam mortars on the station so that about 10 mortars were all coming down at once. Although it was highly amusing to see and really started to lag out the server, it was a very cheap tactic.

Re: Why do people run from MCOMS?

just tonight i was playing some rush and had like 4 teammates turnaround and run away from the mcom. Enemy runs right in front of them and arms it. Even worse was that i killed the guy who armed it so it was wide open to defuse.

So you defused it, right?

i blame the legions of COD flunkies that have come to this game. I noticed that in COD 4 and COD WAW objective based game types are pretty much pointless. Most matches would end in stalemate because neither team would cap a certain flag/point. Any poor soul trying to capture the point would die in hail of grenades and rockets because 99% of the players are just camping for kills. Got very frustrating.

Re: Why do people run from MCOMS?

Painting with a broad brush. Ive seen some really good teamwork in pubs, but it is really few and far between. I said its ALMOST non existent. Why are people with high ranks snobs?

Leaderboard folks care only about their kd, run right by my corpse and MCOM. To them, it's all about kills.

Then there are those who incessantly taunt lower level players.

Maybe I should get a screenshot of those.

After the last patch, I don't even hear any mcom siren. The only way i know its armed is the indicator is blinking. :hmm:

Teamwork, comradeship, and bravery belongs to clan mates.

Not pub players nor high ranking snobs.
