I played my first roper in ages the other day and it kinda reminded me why I stopped playing them to begin with. Years ago I was obsessed with roper and played it non-stop. Now I can't stand them because it's so dependent on crate luck and also there's usually 1-2 hides that are the best on the map and people just stick to the same hides over and over until crate luck determines a winner. These days I much prefer Big RR because there's no luck involved.
Do you guys have any schemes that you used to really enjoy, but don't like playing anymore?
why do u care if ur opponent wins by crate luck? try to enjoy just improving urself, then u'll be the winner, u have a shit mentality. try to enjoy the game than to win, crate luck u can't change but u can always improve
I do play to improve myself. YOU have a shit mentality if you're coming into this thread and making assumptions and generally being a sanctimonious ass totally unprovoked... acting like you possess the correct mentality. Come on man, that's just dick behavior, juvenile, and uncalled-for.
the thing is skunk3, this isn't the first time and not the last time u complain about luck, so yeah, YOU have a shit mentality
even if there was bad crate luck in the 2nd game between you and dibz, there were still 100 things u cuda done better, so instead of looking at luck, look at the possibilities u cuda done better
ofc you try to win, but winning and losing happens, you can't avoid losing, hell, if u want to improve you must fail/lose, you can focus on the bad luck you had, but i think it's more smart to focus on the good things my opponent did to win
you using the intermediate 1 hp sudden death as a example of luck just shows how out of touch you really are, i used to think it was luck aswell, but it's actually skill, you have all the information on your screen and if you pay attention you know when the sudden death starts
overall your mentality is bad, i'd say shit
When was the last time I really complained about luck? Can you actually cite a time without rummaging through past posts? I honestly can't remember personally but surely it has to be years ago since I've barely posted to these forums in comparison to most of the people on here. (264 posts vs. your nearly 7,000 posts!) Besides, I'm not
COMPLAINING about anything at all. You don't seem to understand the difference between complaining and stating a preference. I simply said that I do not like playing roper anymore because of the luck / tedium element. That's it... nothing more, nothing less. Pointing out luck elements in a particular scheme does
not equate to complaining. You keep trying to dissect my statements and accuse me of this and that while also being a straight-up asshole and saying that I have a shit mentality. I've said nothing here to have prompted your anti-Skunk tirade and the irony of the whole situation is absolutely hilarious.
Everyone can always do better in games. You keep making very broad, generic statements / suggestions as though you are telling me something that I haven't considered, as though I don't know how to play the game when I've been around longer than you. Can you understand why this doesn't make any sense to me? As far as the game with Blitz goes, I already said that I made a mistake during the game, so why make redundant, obvious suggestions?
Finally, I am aware that you can strategize in Intermediate for 1 HP sudden death mode. This isn't news to me, I've been playing the damn scheme for ages. The reason why I don't like Intermediate or any scheme with 1 HP sudden death is because once SD kicks in, it makes me feel as though my efforts up until that point have been kinda worthless....basically just positioning. I just don't like that sudden death option. It's not that I can't plan ahead or adjust to it - I just think it's stupid and not fun, therefore I prefer to not play schemes with that sudden death mode. That's not to say that I don't / won't play Intermediate... I'd just prefer to play something else. Am I not allowed personal preference?
One thing that I
will complain about is the very nature of what it feels like to engage on TUS with certain regular posters. It is a very high school, clique-y, wolf pack, popularity contest sort of vibe around here, which is why I barely posted to this site or even checked it out for years. The core TUS crowd (some of them, not all) is so incestuous in a manner of speaking and up each other's asses that anyone who isn't a part of that 'inner circle' is seen as an outsider and gets picked on like the new kid in the lunch room, lol. If you don't like me for whatever reason, that's fine, but there's no need to personally insult me or my intelligence unless I attack you first. I think that a lot of people view me in a bad light because of that one time I trolled the f@#! out of TUS for a day or two a long time ago. I find it funny and sad that basically nobody even understood that I was intentionally trying to aggravate people just to see if they would actually get butthurt or of they could identify a blatantly obvious troll attempt for what it is. The humor and ridiculousness that used to be a staple part of the W:A experience has been gone for a long time now, and that's why I think a lot of people don't feel like playing anymore. Furthermore, I personally think that TUS (both the leagues themselves and the 'inner circle') are the primary reason why the fun has been sucked out of the game... and that is not an attempt at trolling, I'm being dead serious.
