"Everyone Fights. No one quits." can Go to Hell

AGREED

2367

GET REKT, SCRUB

"We’ve seen you backing out of matches on final approach in your ships because you saw formidable opponents on the other team. That tactic could earn you a restriction from future Trials of Osiris events. Please stick it out and fight – even if you know you’re about to be visited by tourists from the Lighthouse." - DeeJ, Weekly Update 6/4/15 I don't give a -blam!-. I don't owe that other team my time. I don't owe them my ass to stomp. If [i]your[/i] matchmaking system pushes me against a group that severely, [i]obviously[/i] outclasses my group of guys that has yet to get to the Lighthouse, I don't - nor does anybody else - [i]owe[/i] them our deaths. Our penalty is on our card in the form of the loss we take. If you have a problem with people backing out of these matches, [i]then don't count them as a Win for the other team[/i]. Trials of Osiris has some serious design flaws. [i]Solve them.[/i] UPDATE: I should have edited this sooner, I apologize. I am aware of the Change Character exploit some folks may have been doing to avoid a loss. I was admittedly fuzzy on this issue when I initially posted. I believe a lot of my argument still stands, however, and, as others have noted in their replies, Trials of Osiris needs something done to its matchmaking. A simple step in matching Lighthouse Veterans to other Lighthouse Veterans, for instance, would do loads of good in evening the competition by placing the Proven against the Proven, and the Aspiring against the Aspiring.

  • Don't be such a damn pussy. I had 3 streaks ended at 8-0 by amazing teams. Did I cry about it? No. Did I give up? No. Did I eventually get to the lighthouse? You bet your ass. Did I still have to beat good players to get there? Of course. Backing out before the match has started? Not even the French surrender that quickly. Anyone who does this should be embarrassed.

      I've been to the lighthouse. Me and my fireteam would go 4 and 0 then it never fails we would be match up against players who went flawless. We lost at 4 and 0 three different times until we got over that hump by beating a team that all has been to the lighthouse. It ended with us making it to the lighthouse.

        You know, they only said that backing out during Ship Flight Loading has penalty But you are still free to leave after spawning in map at least once The update tagline is misleading The penalty is really to address an exploit some use that prevents a loss from being recorded It has nothing to do with your ability to quit mid game if you admit defeat

        • Problem is, I guess, those who switch characters upon inspecting the other team, and thus afford you 0 loss for leaving. But yeah, just do the fight. Screw it.

        • Wow. So you give up even before the match begins? That negativity must really kill team morale. Trust me, team morale is everything. My team went from being 1-4 to winning the match because of our positive attitude and skill.

        • Don't back out you panzy that's why you scrubs don't get better, scared of a little competition. I love stamping a loss on cards just to keep scrubs like you from going to the light house.

        • Handle your whoppin' like a man. Maybe you will pick up on how the good players are beating you down. Ever think of that? You are the problem with this new generation of gamers.

            uhhhh - 3/11/2022 12:06:50 AM

            What the -blam!- did you just -blam!-ing say about me, you little bitch? I’ll have you know I graduated top of my class in the Navy Seals, and I’ve been involved in numerous secret raids on Al-Quaeda, and I have over 300 confirmed kills. I am trained in gorilla warfare and I’m the top sniper in the entire US armed forces. You are nothing to me but just another target. I will wipe you the -blam!- out with precision the likes of which has never been seen before on this Earth, mark my -blam!-ing words. You think you can get away with saying that shit to me over the Internet? Think again, -blam!-er. As we speak I am contacting my secret network of spies across the USA and your IP is being traced right now so you better prepare for the storm, maggot. The storm that wipes out the pathetic little thing you call your life. You’re -blam!-ing dead, kid. I can be anywhere, anytime, and I can kill you in over seven hundred ways, and that’s just with my bare hands. Not only am I extensively trained in unarmed combat, but I have access to the entire arsenal of the United States Marine Corps and I will use it to its full extent to wipe your miserable ass off the face of the continent, you little shit. If only you could have known what unholy retribution your little “clever” comment was about to bring down upon you, maybe you would have held your -blam!-ing tongue. But you couldn’t, you didn’t, and now you’re paying the price, you goddamn idiot. I will shit fury all over you and you will drown in it. You’re -blam!-ing dead, kiddo.

            • K.. and the teams that search for matches with/at lvl32 stuff equiped then just before start switch up to 34's. what'll happen to those knobs?.. just curious as i 'backed' out of a trials during first week, After seeing this, totally unaware (pvp noob) that two guys i was with Still continued, only wanted to see/mess about, have a lil bit of fun etc.. till seen that, if i seen it after 2or3 matches i can only presume it's a common occurance?, or (as usual) i was just unlucky.

              • Yep, fixing your matchmaking may fix the problem with leavers. Don't match me with full-on try hards with invis/blink/shotgun action.

                I think they should add matchmaking to Trials... That way it'll be more likely for teams to get to the lighthouse.

              • Ok, so I'm supposed to take on a team of 3 sunslingers, with thorns and felwinter's, plus Jolder's Hammer, that have arrived more times at the Lighthouse in one day, than I have received keys in one week, because you guys feel it's the right thing to do?, lol screw you and those teams, balance your shitty Crucible back to it's early days, and then tell me to stick it out and fight.

                      • I'm assuming you never saw a crew coming in and said "[i]Well golly, these fellers look fresh off the boat and wickedly under-equipped. Best quit now before I end up destroying them."[/i] No, you'd steamroller 'em and laughed while you did it. Unless you can tell us you never once blew up some poor bastard trying his luck with his wonky gear, you don't get to complain the big boys play rough.
