MORE THAN SIX TEAMS, NINE HOURS LATER ON ORYX, AND I AM DONE.
#Recruitment and this forum couldn't kill an ogre if they had a gun pointed to their head. They couldn't get a critical even WITH a night stalker shot. Having a team full of Titans and STILL make someone complain about not being SAFE in a BUBBLE and changing EVERYTHING.
I can't wrap my head around this. Honestly. I've been going at the challenge for a few days, changing roles without fail, and yet it's always either a glitch or, in most cases, someone can't handle their own task even with the aid of more than three players. If you REALLY were experienced, you'd take down your own ogres and Knights by yourself and STILL have enough time to help others. STAGGER THEM. Don't say they're "teleporting" if you aren't even doing a dang thing to stop them!!! Come ON.
And bombs: GET THEM!!! Make sure you're in the RINGS, that's what it MEANS. If I have to stay in the middle and watch as you mess up, call it out, and still not be able to get all the bombs, MORE THAN ONCE, then something inside your cranium is either turned off or rotting.
AND PEOPLE. DONT HOP ON TO PLAY IF YOU JUST WENT THROUGH A BREAK UP! Seriously! Why have the majority of my teams consist either of moaning zombies or guys with screaming kids PRACTICALLY ON THEIR LAP. My ears are still ringing, and I don't think they'll stop anytime soon.
Is it my fault for playing so long? Sure. I mean, it's not like I've been wanting to play SOMETHING after finishing my finals and ultimately the college semester. And of course, people have lives. Just...in a game of communication and being able to kill an enemy, it's important to COMMUNICATE AND KILL ENEMIES. Take care of your business before you play, read the requirements of my post, then join...for Gods sake.
No more. I am passive aggressive, but the sheer ineptness that I've witnessed just switched off that part of me. No more. From now on, I'll have specific requirements, including age, volume of voice + your surroundings, and how much time I'll give. I know now from experience that I can't post a simple "Let's get it done, be 310+". I understand now.
Good day. Goooood day.
Edit: Before I turn in for the day, I just want to say that this thread was made purely out of the frustration I had built up over time due to the challenge mode. I assure you that I am in fact a team player, and never once have I vocally gotten on someone's case prior to this, nor have I left a fireteam without at least saying thank you or take care. That's all.
And thank you to those who have offered their assistance; not sure if I'm going to attempt it tomorrow, but we'll see. My brain is still fried.
Update: at 4 ct I'll be running it again with a team from the100.io for about 45 mins, then I'll move on to those here that offered both their teams and aid.
And for all this time I've been on the forums (maybe four years?) I have never gotten so many replies. Whoa.

1 AntwortenOmg so true about the people with babies screaming in their laps tho. Just stop. Stop playing until you put your kid to bed. Congrats you produced a wailing pooping machine. Props to you, but no one wants to hear it screaming while they're trying to coordinate a team. Beyond frustrating!

1 AntwortenBearbeitet von Brave: 12/22/2015 12:30:28 AMFor those of you with this problem, use lfg.net, not .com or the bungie recruitment. Also, look for teams that need one more. They have likely been in for a while and are just looking for one replacement player. Edit: I don't know wtf that hyperlink is. I didn't put it there.

Tuesday I got one character thru with my regular group of friends, no sweat. I have two other characters. Wednesday I was busy, they raided without me. Thursday night, Friday night, Saturday night, Sunday night been trying for hours upon hours with at least 8 different groups. I didn't realize something so easy, would be so hard for LFG groups. I'm just going to go sparrow race now, and get better rewards than the raid anyway!! Plus not have to pull my hair out anymore.

This past week for the Oryx challenge I've run into more incompetent people than I've ever encountered before. Most of them can't get to the middle off their plate without dying. It's been really sad. But the100.io Best thing ever!
-
Most of the times people complain about others they could contribute more themselves! Are you on a plate? Grenade on your ogre and kill it. Help with other ogres, knights, adds if you have the time. If your Titans stand in the middle, let a hunter tether the adds after you stagger oryx, making more orbs for the titans. Runner? Use your sword to take down the vessel. Call outs are a given. Titans in the middle or up top? Snipers do a shit ton of damage on ogres. One must be responsible for taking down the fourth knight. ONLY snipers or LMG on shade(unless you're comfortable with ToM and have bubble to spare). And don't forget to stagger oryx while detonating. I know this isn't well written but this is the things I struggled most with in random groups on challenge mode. One time all 4 people on the plates sat down and did nothing. Not even shooting knights. Complaining that it's only the titans in the middle that's supposed to do anything
-
Add me and send me a message when doing the challenge next time it is available. I've got a few people to raid with that do this easily.
-
Pet peeve, When people can't jump from platform to platform during wizards If they can't tap x a few times while turning slightly left it makes me really question their ability to aim down sights and hit critical damage on a moving object I'd hate to sound elitist, but i would weed those weaker players out of your friends list
-
Make your own fireteam, weed out the bad eggs. I hate to sound like a douche but if 2 out of the 6 are consistently messing up their jobs then replace the 2. You will eventually find people who are capable of completing their task.
