I don't like it when my teammates yell at me for something I had no control over 👉👈
Discussion
Active offensive stratagems are like scissors.
Don't run with them.
If no run then how throw far?
Always dive and run 2 times more dangerous two times more distance
It doesn't matter if I run with them. Enemies always seem to know exactly when I've put the last input in and act accordingly.
Me as a bot diver: The rocket know where you are at all times.
If not run, why run shaped?
I like to live dangerously.
Well where’s the fun in that?
Like Grenades, once the Beacons out of your hands its nobody's friend.
Don't play the blame game, focus on getting the fuck away from it first. I wish the people that yelled at you will learn this when they too drop theirs, but I don't normally have high hopes for droppers like this
That's... Genuinely the kindest thing anyone has said to me this week
Oh...um. You're doing great, Diver. You aint no Dropper like em.
To live and die for Super Earth is, and will always be an honor, no matter how or why you die.
And if things get rough, Remember: Freedom!
accidentally dropped strategems are the hot sauce of the game, a little splash here and there really kicks things up a notch.
"So, uh... that 380 landed a lot closer to extract than I expected. We should, uh, back up a bit..."
You are a strong, independent diver.
Also, next time someone complains about the 500kg falling on their head, throw the second one at them to assert dominance.
Mfw I get ready to toss a thermite at a Hulk but then some rocket jackass ragdolls me, making me drop the thermite so it sticks onto me and burns me to death.
Feelsbadman.
The drone grenade are my friends. Im like where you going little drone the two enemies I want you to kill are over there!
15 kill streak
OK never mind buddy you do you! I'll just keep letting you fly around
That's why I'm always host. It doesn't matter who dropped the 500, the dbag that cusses out a person that got staggered gets court martialed. It happens to everyone, you either laugh about it because it's funny, or you can take your shit elsewhere. This isn't a competitive PVP game.
I would host 100% of the time if Arrowhead would finally add a "disband fireteam" option in the menus instead of making me press a pillow over the game's face or making me manually kick three players whenever I want to pause for a moment or when I would like to play with different teammates.
It's been over a year. I'm sick of excusing Arrowhead over the simplest features, or lack thereof. This is like being anywhere north of five years old and still not knowing how to walk.
Yes and return to ship alone button is so over due
Amen, diver
Play on superhelldive, no one is gonna yell at you.
And you'll ask: But wait? Aren't the real tryhards on superhelldive?
Yes. But no one uses mic so nobody can't yell
It's like semi-common occurrence and accepted causality at that difficulty, hell its why I exclusively play it since everyone usually on there understands You WILL DIE, and maybe even all die like the DoW opening as the objective is completed but all lives lost.
Honestly I could believe how much easier 10 is than 7/8 just because of player base. I wish I had made the jump sooner.
In my experience no one blames anyone, but I'm playing fairly comfortable on diff 10 so I'm probably a competent player, still, those times that TK occurs what I've seen is people having a chuckle at it and continuing with the mission
Ya, 1 ill timed team wipe can sink an entire mission.
Counter point, I've had total squad losses save a mission. Sometimes the team gets stuck reinforcing people one by one (especially on flag objectives) and you just get ground up as you drop in. A total reset lets the squad start fresh and regroup.
I just started playing this week. I was level 12 and accidentally killed my level 7 teammate, respawned them. This dude proceeds to kill me and take my ammo backpack, then types in chat “I thought you stole my samples”. Like my guy we are both new and terrible at the game, where is this toxicity getting us
Maybe you know, but samples are shared, no one can steal them.
I did know! Is it etiquette to pick up samples or leave them?
She’s safe from it cause she’s prone, 500kg hitboxes are like cones
But usually my teammates can't take notice and they end up dying and I'm the one getting kicked for something I didn't mean to do
Maybe a few months ago. That got fixed
Nah. I literally booked a titan with one today and it kept on trucking
Sometimes, it is the bugs. Sometimes, I'm getting ready to throw a 500kg on a shrieker nest, but those absurdly quiet chargers blindside me and knock me over.
Those chargers have no right to be that quiet.
Anyone with half a brain doesn’t need an explanation why you threw a 500 at their feet.
It's annoying when my own teammates do this because they flick their shot after I go to throw the stratagem and I make sure to not be in their line of fire too because they simply don't practice proper gun discipline 🤣
if you were enemy you would survive, 500kgs are so underwhelming
Walking barrage is worse. You've no idea what direction it goes.
Pretty much same problem, back when the air burst launcher first released, I had it happen more than once that a bug just jumped out from bumfuck nowhere, right im front of my shot, killing me and my teammates
I just had a game where i wanted to throw my 380 into a bug breach and someone killed me either with a turret or because i ran into his line of fire.
Most dramatic and cinematic extraction i have ever seen xD
I just laugh when someone else does it (as long as it's not a regular thing). But you do have some control over it: be careful when holding your stratagem and throw it asap or put it away.
Nope happens mostly bc some dipshit uses the eruptor to kill bugs 1m away from you
Here, this one is free of charge:
Me: drops strat, wipes squad
Squeaker: tantrums
Me, unmutes: Is that your real voice?
That one hunter that just so happens to knock you over with this stratagem
I remember when I was playing with my buddies last night, we were defending the extraction point and I was about to throw a 500kg stratagem when my friend decided it was a great time to melee me. I dropped it right on the extraction platform.
I try to type out or say over mic "ragdolled" "sorry"
When my teammate and I get into a kicking fight I’ll queue up an Eagle 500Kg and get him to kick me down and drop the stratagem
My brother in Christ, YOU chose to provide unnecessary covering fire at extraction
That's when you yell "SCATTER!" and everyone runs off in a different direction like that scene in Ratatouille
Spam sorry in advance for what is about to happen.
I swear the hunter came out of nowhere when i wanted to shot the airbust
And that is why I don't wait at extraction to drop one
I see the red doom beam from the sky and scatter. Been traumatized too many times blown to bits by teammates. Some people make fun of me but I haven’t been team killed in a while.
I find these moments hilarious.
I just had this happen to me, I got pinned under my destroyed mech, so I threw this and yelled out "FOR SUPER EARTH" Got kicked.
Where is the men from?
I got ragdolled from a turret on a bot mission while holding my orbital laser… dropped it, and suddenly I was a medium-well diver with a little pink in the middle.
Ill dodge it
Holding off the last stratagem key to prevent this until you throw the ball is entirely your choice.
A short but clear warning siren and/or better warning message to all players within the killzone radius from the gem light column will be helpful to prevent TK for all fire support gems with AOE.
Such warning signal will make everyone clearly recognize the danger even in the middle of the combat.
We hear repeated warning messages about bot mortar for all players, but why not for friendly fire support?
It's called, talking to your team and the light beam coming from a highly detailed ball near your feet with the stratagem display...
Not may random players use Voip. Chatting messages have a limit. Let the game send a warning message to all players within the kill zone. It is very simple work to do.
Im sorry but it's called not being blind
It is so easy to miss the gem light in the middle of combat, especially if the map is complicated.
Congrats now, stand behind an armored vehicle irl in a combat zone.
Translation. I don't like when people call me out on my stupid mistakes.
Every. Damn. Time.
