"TES community" question, for "non-TES communities" to challenge.

[HeatproofShAdOw]

I honestly want to know where this stereotype of a twelve year old kid screaming into his mike came from, or the fact that CoD players us retarded for not liking your game.

Just about every damn match you play on that ... game. It's befitting for Halo, too, but not on as great a scale - but I gave Halo a more specific point instead.

I've got one sat across the other side of this house, a few in my Xbox friends list and quite a few on youtube; a large majority in fact.

Okay, so one of your main complains are the twelve year olds. Granted, there are a few, but I've encountered similar numbers on BF3, and the Halo series is just a mosh pit of them. Also, a lot of you naysayers seem o forge he convenient fact that the game comes with a freaking mute button. So you don't have o listen to them. Funny that...

All I got from this is "we're the best, why can't you see that?!"

I didn't know people don't like the TES community, and you know what? I don't care. Somebody dissed the community of a series of games you like, big fucking whoop. Talk about first world problems.

Actually, it's "there's the least wrong with us, but why still hate?!" to incite discussion, challenges and banter.

The latter part of your comment falls into the "Why did you even bother coming onto this thread then, other than to cite being a smart-arse?" group.

Which renders its "community" completely pointless if you have to mute everyone, turning the game into a smarter-ai single player. You don't think I used to play CoD too, and trust me - that mute button was hard wired into my sorry-ass brain.

Hey guess what. This is the gaming forum. Want to guess what gets talked about here? If someone wants to talk about games then guess what happens. Also I won't spoil it this time.

<- Star wars community.

-Why do I dislike TES? Well because I for one can't get into the game because it is so slow and buggy, but then again its bethesda.

-Another reason I hate it? It shut out all the other games that came out in november and HARDLY anyone can get in one thread on say, Sonic Generations, before its overmobbed with Skyrim threads.

-Lastly, Arrow to the knee. I punched someone for saying that in public, seriously.

Gotta agree on that one - though probably not for the same reason. Memes should exist - they're binding. They should not exist in real life, however. IF someone utters "Lol" instead of just laughing out in public; or cries "trololo" or some form of internet slang/meme - I too punch them. though mentioning it's "firday, friday" on friday is acceptable as it's just.

So mute the people you don't want to hear, and leave the people you can talk to unmuted. Not exactly that hard. OT, go ask 100 different people their opinions, get 100 different results. What you see as a masterpiece of gaming, I see a flawed but fun time-sink. I think battlefield sucks, others think it's good. I enjoy Gears of War 3 the most, others hate it. OPINIONS. Deal with them. As I said before though, the over saturation of Skyrim threads, even a month after release, is pissing a lot of people off. And that freaking arrow in the knee meme. May it die a horrible death.

You are whining for the sake of whining, in that case. It doesn't "incite" discussion when you act like a biased and arrogant meanie face (I couldn't think of a word that would portray disgust and yet not lead to some kind of banning, so you get to be meanie face) it only incites hatred. And you know what? Hatred is bad, maaan.

However, yeah, in many ways I did come here to be negative. But at the same time, I think I could have found positive things to say if you hadn't acted so high and mighty.

However, you? You can go jump in a river. Seriously, what the hell? He's allowed to talk about games but I'm not allowed to talk about him talking about games in a negative way?

Hypocrisy rang, he said you're doing a great job.

You aren't even talking about them you mentioned what he said once then said you don't care and started being an asshole. Also if being a hypocrit means going against what I said then what did I say? Simple nothing.

...I keep re-reading that and parts of it just don't make sense in my mind. Anyway, if you so wish to continue this debate (which I suppose it is) please move it onto PMs. Nobody else is really posting in this thread, I don't want to just to be a back and forth of our arguing.

 

[freaper]

You realise you mentioned games with a prominent PvP role, right? Those are by default more aggressive and spiteful.

Well then let's end our arguement here since it appears the two of us were both misinterpreted. Granted my original post to you was intentionally like that since I hate people saying that first world problems crap like just because they haven't had shit happen every day in their whole life they don't have the right to ever be sad or have problems.

 

[gigastar]

I dont like considering myself a part of a community.

Thats pretty much why.

 

[Sjakie]

None, too many D-bags, trolls and bronies everywhere...

Wait, how did my postcount get that high?

 

[Kargathia]

Well with all this hubbub about Skyrim the MLP fans are getting a break hahaha.

I'm getting visions here of cages all over the internet, restraining the various kinds of obnoxious fanboys/haters until the time is right for them to be set loose in the wild.

Oh what, we were talking about skyrim hating? Please, do continue. I'll be in this corner quietly enjoying the game. I tried being a jerk about it, but I find it cuts into my playing time.

 

[Phoenixlight]

...we're...

One person doesn't represent everyone from a particular area and playing game D doesn't make you more intelligent than someone who plays game F. They're both pointless games that you waste time playing.

The only people I consider part of TES community are the mod-makers. I love them all. Thank you for making mods for me to download for free for all these years. People who play TES just don't feel like members of a community to me.

I still feel a stronger attachment to my Planetside outfit than I do to any other gaming community. We trained together, we fought together, and we won or lost as a team. People who behaved unprofessionally or who didn't follow orders, regardless of their personal feelings about the Ops leader giving them, didn't last long in our outfit. Our strict behavioral standards are a large part of the reason we were never the largest outfit, but in a genera dominated by immature jerks it is also a source of great strength and pride. We are elite - not because we have the most skilled players, although I'd count some of the officers and long-time veterans as among the best of the best, but on the whole our member's aim and skill is average - rather it is because of our ambush tactics, focused fire coordination, and maneuver teamwork. Play together on TeamSpeak with the same group long enough, and you'll learn what to expect of your outfit mates, and you'll be able to predict how each member of your 10-player squad or 30-player platoon will react in any given scenario, and how you can best assist them (for example, I'd often carry ammo for guns I didn't use, knowing that a specific one of my outfit mates was going to need it for the Op we were planning). You'll also get to know eachother personally - jobs, joys, frustrations, who's children are sick, non-Planetside hobbies, etc...

We were never the largest outfit, but we often made the largest impact on pushing back the front line or holding it against seemingly impossible odds until non-outfit reinforcements logged in. I attribute our success to knowing what our goal was (blitz the command console to re-secure it, blow up the generator or respawn tubes, crack the defense in a base's lobby and hold there until non-outfits caught up and could back us up for the push to the next choke point, etc...) thanks to excellent leadership, knowing how to achieve that goal thanks to training and experience, and a willingness to stop at nothing to achieve that goal. It was accepted that the first person to breach the door of a hot base was going to die. It's almost a given. But our guys paid little attention to kills/deaths ratio, and knew that our platoon would either win the objective and rez the fallen, or all of us would fall and then all respawn together. We got plenty of hate tells from players on all 3 teams for ending fights so quickly - we played to win where as some players just wanted to farm noobs and killwhore for their k/d.

Assuming our tactics can be applied in Planetside 2 when that game is released, the Smurfs and Elmos are going to be crushed.
