Why would ppl suicide in any game not to mention a simple doubles game and 7 of them
English

^This. It wasn't too difficult to round up one friend and give our all, win or lose, for seven+ measly games.
-
Because you can suicide 3 games as fast as you can normally complete one. So if you don't care about your K/D, and if you're just looking for rewards, playing the games out was a waste of time.
-
No sir, suiciding is a waste of time and much faster than a game completion by far...Rewards or not your a bitch if you do that
-
Suicide isn't a waste. I got 2 315-316 ghosts in under 2 hours and both shaders. Also got the 320 yesterday from the post... Even though I go every game I played was suicide.

Suiciding is quicker... Which means more games that go by... Which means more chances to get rewards... Which means more rewards drop

Why even bother switching your console on?

[quote]Why even bother switching your console on?[/quote] I believe you missed the part where I said "if you're just looking for rewards."

Again. Why even switch it on? It's like entering a race and standing on the start line, waiting for a medal. You entered, run.

[quote]Again. Why even switch it on? It's like entering a race and standing on the start line, waiting for a medal. You entered, run.[/quote] Pretty much!

[quote]Again. Why even switch it on? It's like entering a race and standing on the start line, waiting for a medal. You entered, run.[/quote] Because I don't have unlimited playtime. The first day, I only had a short play period and I played legit and for the first shader. The second day I had an even shorter play period, played legit, and didn't get anything. I knew the last day I had to play I didn't have that much time either, and I was trying to farm the last shader. So I suicided and got it in my next to last match. You can fight RNG if you want. I played it, thought it was ok, then needed to farm the shader.

You had like 15 minutes every day to play? 7 games is like 30 mins or less of doubles

My post originally was toward suiciding 7 games in a row for the ghost, but other than that idc yet it's still stupid
-
Neither do I, so I didn't play it. I'm not here to waste other people's time, never mind my own.
-
We had a match once where the other team suicided - believe me - they weren't wasting my time at all :)
-
Would've be in wasting my time, I'm here to play, not look at dead bodies.

[quote]We had a match once where the other team suicided - believe me - they weren't wasting my time at all :)[/quote] Actually, the most interesting match I had was when I was trying to suicide and the other team wouldn't let us. The first round we jumped off and they won 1-0. The second round, we jumped off and they did to, so it stayed 1-0. The next game, one of us jumped off, and I didn't, they did and it was tied 1-1. The fourth round we ran at them and let them kill us, they were up 2-1. The next game, we ran part of the way there, jumped off, and only one of them could jump off in time. They were up 3-1. The heavy round, we ran for heavy, and rocketed ourselves to death. They were up 4-1. The next round, we ran at them, they saw us, we ran to a ledge and jumped, and they did to, game still at 4-1. The next game we ran at them, they didn't shoot us, so we killed one of the, then the other guy fired back and killed us and they won 5-1. Was kind of fun and funny to play.

That's dumb

[quote]Neither do I, so I didn't play it. I'm not here to waste other people's time, never mind my own.[/quote] Ah, you're one of those people. First, playing [u]any[/u] video game is a waste of time. So your version of wasting time is not superior in any way to my wasting time. Second, I wasn't wasting anyone else's time. There's lots of teams I beat 5-0. There's lots of teams that beat my team 5-0. This was just a faster version of that.

I'm not sure every game is a waste of time dude. It's entertainment, people go and spend hours watching tv and movies or reading books, I think video games are pretty much the same thing. I honestly have nothing against the people who resorted to suicide farming, I wanted to snag all the event specific loot myself but couldn't get either of the ghosts to drop. I probably would have tried farming myself if I was more clever, so now I'm missing a chocolate ghost in my collection(sad day for a Guardian) But my aparemtly long winded point is that if a game can keep SO many people still playing it than I don't think it's a waste of time, it's become more of a hobby to a lot of people. (My god I keep replying with these paragraphs...sorry for the long read man)
-
I understand your point about entertainment. I mean it can have positive effects on you, but there is always a more constructive thing you could be doing. But it's kind of not the point I was attempting to make. Basically, he was trying to say his way of playing the game is somehow superior to mine, and I was wasting my time, but he wasn't. Which is narcissistic nonsense.

Free rewards basically that are high level without having to put in effort.
