Yes a wise move that leaves transports and caps undefended...just exactly what we need another player running around like a headless chicken.
That's pure practice, if a something isn't working properly in real life and you can't get it fixed you adapt to it and get used it. Someone who expects that thing to work properly will struggle but that doesn't imply a lack of skill. What I meant is the "skill curve" isn't as steep as some people say and it's artificial. None of the mechanics are really refined or complicated. The opposite is the case. The reason new players struggle is because everything is so unrefined and clunky. A good game, at least for a wide audience - and multiplayer shooters in particular - should be easy to learn and hard to master because of it's mechanics and easy to learn does not mean holding someones hand all the time. EC is definitely not, but not because of it's mechanics but because of what I said.
How are new players supposed to get into this game then? That will be even ... more... impossibler... than now. And it's release day.
First problem is you are probably playing LSM. They've sadly made the LSM under perform in this game, which is a bad move for release as I've said because this would happen with new players. Anyhow try Eldar for now, you will play much better, get more kills and even if you play bad your team will carry you to victory. You will also move a bit smoother and faster, helps with reacting and reflexes.
both sides will have rookies and those rookies who listen will learn faster if its not about skill its about luck and how many would invest their time if experience means nothing
You know, you could put people of roughly the same "skill" into games together. If only systems existed that can do that.
Nah, the rookies will just abandon ship. Games are supposed to be fun, not frustrating farmfests that require you to spend double digit hours getting ANYTHING done. I'll try that Eldar crap. And feel very very dirty doing it as a last resort.
I still think that part of what you were experiencing is down to lag. So apart from getting more familiar with the game I recommend you take it slowly, maybe wait until next week if it gets too frustrating. I think the lag issues will get better with time.
We blamed lag for everything wrong with this game for 8 months. Can we please stop now and admit it might be the game itself.
