This is a perfect example. No offense seaners but instead of pinging for help just group yourself up with them. They don't have to come to you if you go to them. A lot of self proclaimed good players complain about the noobs or guys that cost them games....But isn't it possible you are costing yourself the game by not adjusting your play. Once you realize no one is coming to help you have to assume you might have to be the glue that keeps the team from falling apart.Originally Posted by seaners95 Go to original post
he's got a point I know it literally drives me insane but half the time I'm too blinded by frustration to think straight but he is right. Look past the frustration and try sticking with your team. I'm guilty as hell of not doing that and then paying the price for it so I have to keep slapping myself back into reality like hey a team that sticks together wins together. Granted like I said before there are a lot of ******** aspects about this game but one fact still remains no one person is that ****ing good that they can always win it "FOR" their team and not "WITH" their team. ***** as much as you want but those that stick to that concept are in fact right and mostly victorious.
Try running skirmish matches against several bots and just yourself. Turn the damage down so all you focus on is blocking and parrying. This will at least help alleviate the anxiety in the inevitable event of you being outnumbered.Originally Posted by SinisterClassic Go to original post
The problem is that a huge portion of the entire player base is and has always been at the end of their rope. A ton of people want to quit, but it sucks them in. I hate this game and will never even consider buying another Ubisoft title after how they've handled this, but I still play sometimes just because I'm invested at this point. I honestly wish Ubi would just announce that they're stopping all development on it and let it die so that we can all rest in peace instead of being dragged along with carrots on sticks.Originally Posted by OfTheStone Go to original post
The thing about solo queue is that you never know what sort of teammates you're going to get. I'm pretty sure you just aren't remembering all the times you were matched with a team that steamrolled your opponent, because I think that's what you expect to happen. When you get trashed because your teammates aren't good, you don't expect that and it stands out.
If you really care about winning, queue with friends. If you don't have any friends, then just queue for the chaos and the fights. You don't really have any other choice, because the game isn't going to serve you players you personally think are good against players you think are appropriately bad to net you a victory without you feeling like it was too easy.
It's called "selective memory." People only remember what they want to remember, in the way they want to remember -- regardless of what actually happens.Originally Posted by PrimaGoosa Go to original post
- Experience a 3~4 match bad luck streak with weak team members? Wow, that's maddening. So much rage! <--- People remember this one.
- ALL THE REST of the matches where the game went fine, had a good one, won easily, steamrolled opponents... <--- People NEVER remember these.
What Supercool5150 said! You can adapt and carry any team to a win. Yesterday I carried a full-bot team to a win vs 4 human players. I just sticked with the bots and went out with 15+ kills and only 2-3 deaths. Opponents were Rep 8+, so I thought "oh my gawd this will be a r*pefest" - but the enemy team did not stick together. So me and my bot mates had them constantly lose 1-2 members, hold 2 points and won the game (with a lucky catapult from me killing 3 people).
It is your attitude and adapting that lets you win "impossibru" matchups. Not the matchups themselves.
