Teams do not seem to be able to grasp the very simple fact that you need caps to win.They seem to prefer wild goose chases to the edge of the map or camping at the one cap they manage to capture. You basically scream at them in chat and they ignore you. You're forced to try and cap in a New York while they in their DD wander around aimlessly, all while the ticker counts down. It's becoming quite frustrating. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You must be in a completely different tier 8-10 queue than me. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most players hate being focused. Most players hate being the leading edge aka scouting. WG rewards damage and kills. WG is not so good on rewarding aggressive play.

1,347 [BKSHD] MidnightShamalan Members 2,274 posts 7,317 battles Report post #7 Posted July 28, 2017 screaming in chat won't help anything. only damage your sanity. let them know which objectives you want to go for. but if they go lemming, do yourself a favor and just play the best game you can play, and erase it from your memory shortly afterwards. you're far less likely to get chat banned. maybe eventually you'll be good enough to force your team to win whether they want to or not. i know i'm not yet. but we can dream.

My experience is that over the last 6-8 weeks (roughly) random battles have been effectively unplayable, unless you like a diet heavy in potato. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most players hate being focused. Most players hate being the leading edge aka scouting. WG rewards damage and kills. WG is not so good on rewarding aggressive play. I agree with the above quote, particularly on aggressive play. I usually start as scout, regardless of tier (mainly use T7 - T10). I usually get sunk, 2 out of 3 games, but manage a kill rate of 1.0. I do not go for kill rate, just happens if one plays aggressively. What I am trying to improve on is main battery hits. I am stuck on 43%. Anybody got suggestions on how to improve this?

LoL How to improve main bty hits is a $1,000,000 question. All any of us can do is: 1. Apply correct lead (and/or get closer) 2. Pick the best target (the one showing the most broadside) 3. Sacrifice a div mate to the RNG gods. 4. Change the scope - maybe? If you can find better answers, please post GL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
