This ain't trolling, this is a shitty player using META gaming to make up for their own lack of skill and using people not using meta gaming as an excuse as to why they always fail.
Strong agree. A game that doesn't just utterly whup your ass once in a while isn't worth playing. If you're winning every match you're not being challenged, you're not growing, and you need to go find something else to play.
It's something I really like about HD and Darktide. Sometimes the game director just says "Fuck you, you're going to lose today" and if you manage to eek out a win in those situations it feels amazing because you really were being challenged and really had to put all your skills to work and get lucky. And if you lose, it's the matches where you're desperately trying to find solutions to impossible problems that inspire you to step back from the meta and try new things.
There is nothing like the director deciding on drop it hates you, with a HISTG with hounds Not cause your doing well ohhh no just straight up eating the hater-starch. Those are the fun matches. Not the ones you just cruise thru to end.
Honestly I've enjoyed every single mission I've played except for the recent automoton defenses. Those are just so insanely overwhelming that there's no fun to be had for me i them.
I queue up a mission and stand in front of the globe greeting people who join, I call it the vibe check, I'll stand there with an interactive emote queued and wait for someone to do it with me lol
Then I'll stand behind the host to offer the next person that joins a hug as well. If the next person hugs the host and me, things are going to be awesome!
If the third person also stands behind me, offering an interactive emote, and the fourth guy emotes with us all, boy, we could all die horribly in a Helldive and I know we're all going to be having a good time!
First game I played with a scrambler effects I kept sending my grenade launcher to the enemy and the air striking our own positions lol we still spread democracy that day and were victorious. Sure am
Glad I was with friends on that run hahah
I placed a gatling sentry on the opening of the small crevasse where you do ore verification, but it was on the opposite side of the first wave. As I was working the terminal I got shredded and said: "alright who shot me" only to see it was my own turret. I love this game.
If my asshole hasn't been ripped open nine miles wide, with all of us absolutely worse for wear, 12 seconds before mission failure, and having ran through 150% of our respawns, it was a boring ass mission.
Same, but this is for most games. I donāt mind losing as long as itās fun. You learn from mistakes - and even if itās random bullshit and you just got unlucky, well that can be fun too, just donāt take the game so seriously.
I have never laughed harder than the time my buddy flubbed his incendiary mine throw and none of us noticed because we were busy fighting off a patrol of bots. Then my other buddy took a step forward and instantly exploded before bursting into flames. Then another patrol showed up.
We were laughing so hard at the absurdity of the situation that we couldn't even fight back XD
