GW2 PvP the perfect storm

[Abazigal.3679]

But in this mentality, we could say for soccer" we're losing 3-0 at the 80' mark, let's just stop playing there is no point " or for tennis ' i'm losing 6-0 6-2 2-0 , why should i bother ". Point is to try until the end. There are matchs where people do their best and end up stopping at 460-250, but there are also matchs where people act like " we've died twice on middle point, that's it i'm done ".

 

I think the real point about this is more likely that people stop because the gameplay isn't so fun. When you do face scourges and spellbreakers doing the same with no risk over and over, people tend to give up quicker.

I laugh but I'm actually sad as this is the truth.

Combacks are rare but they do happen, if and only if your teammates communicate and/or have a positive attitude. Combacks are the best games ever. But expect the competitive mode to bring out the worst in some people.

I always found it funny that people demanded solo queue, and now many of those same people constantly complain about the people they get teamed with.

You reap what you sow..

Altho I was con soloqueue all along the line.

Man...I remember when quitting a match was actually considered a bad thing. It's amazing to see the fruits of not nipping this behavior in the bud when it first started mainstreaming in PVP. Just Before S3?

Theres no incentive to fight, no incentive to *try* if you are getting ouplayed by the enemy. 100v500 loss or 450v500 loss, its all the same on your loss of point despite the fact the matchmaker clearly did its job in the later loss. But Anets score system just say *kitten you, you could have given up 5 minutes ago and saved some time*.

 

So much this.
