Why FC is Not Fun

[Blackhawk570]

Legacy 2 probably could have versed VbD last night if they didn't want to play them.

Are we seriously persecuting a squad for being too good?

Fucking seriously?

Come the fuck on, this is pathetic.

My time in BLUE

This thread confuses my retarded ass. People seriously need to stop complaining about how good they are. I see it as a way to better without killing your K-D. But we always have to find something to hate and bitch about, and whats the easiest thing to complain about? The best. Its easier to hate those who are better then everyone else because its a common hate. No disrespect to anyone, but some of these "solutions" are just ignorant.

"Disbanding a team of friends because they're too good?" Really? This has got be a joke. It seems that the better team is being punished for being good which is completely outrageous. A community that removes/disbands teams for being "too good" is not a community I would want to be with. Maybe if people use their extra time to play halo rather then complain on a forum, it wouldn't be an issue. I say again, I mean no disrespect towards anyone.

Also, if a team didn't want to play their last game (regardless if the map was won or lost), then that team shouldn't have played at all. It would have saved people a lot of trouble. I had 4 members online for my team, one lagged out in our last game (found a sub) and another had a firecall in the midpoint of the game. But my guys still played. The other team waited on us for a good 20 mins until I got a sub, I wasn't going to just "forfeit" the game. They had the patience to wait, and I played down a man (even though it was my last game). It would have been disrespectful if I didn't play them.

Again, no disrespect and sorry if my post comes off as cluttered.

Well this thread is just so damn productive. Mods?

So I don't know how this match wasn't set up and I had no responses at all from anyone in blue to my skype chats from me asking basically what the hell is going on. Making the excuse that none of us seen the skype chat is one that is piss poor. We have been using the damn chat all day, so I cant comprehend of why all of a sudden you guys didn't look at the chat especially cause around that time nothing was going on.

I'm not posting this because I am purposely being an asshole but I know whats its like to sit in a god damn lobby for an hour and then to hear the other team forfeits, that's absolutely ridiculous. Especially if we want to keep telling everyone our community is built on fun, and respect because that shows neither of the two.

The last topic of my wall of text i have honestly no idea why VBD's skill level was even brought up, their skill level shouldn't matter in regards to them playing a match or not all they want to do is have fun and show up to the battle night. And to see all the attitude and negative atmosphere in this topic is pretty ridiculous considering they did not do anything wrong.

It was just a shitty situation with no win-win ending. It happens.

Yes, we're about fun and respect, but fun is a two-way street. If one group of people has fun at the expense of others', that isn't the kind of fun we're all about. Some people and some squads don't mind, and even enjoy, the kind of challenge that VbD brings to the table. But we're not talking about a Nemesis team or a Lost Remnants team or any actually squad that purposely forfeited. We're talking about a BLUE Mix team that didn't forfeit so much as just fall apart, which is an inherent danger of any Mix team.

Zeta Crossfire made the point about REDWATCH always being paired up with Legacy which in my opinion are pretty good and their weakest player always has something "come up" so they place some kid who has a 3.0 k/d ratio on their squad. I can't make this up guys.

I beg to differ. We don't even pull the old "switcheroo" against VbD. No offense to your team, but if we pulled that against anyone it would be them, not you.

Literally last night, we pulled a Game 1 of VbD vs Legacy 1 (my team) on the first map. Not a single game had been played yet so we could have easily switched out Andimion and Capone for Legacy 2's Yehsus and Coagulation, and as a result have a hilariously stacked team to play against VbD (and likely win). But Legacy doesn't do that shit, because we refuse to stack one team at the expense of another..

I really dont see how that answers any of the questions I have that I want answered, the only thing im seeing is. "Its a mix it happens a lot that they just leave". But let me remind you this "Mix" is lead by the Brig Gen and Major of your army its not like you just log off before the battle-night is over especially when they know they have another game ready for them to join.

So what are you saying is that no blue members joined game 21 and basically we had VbD wait for hour for nothing? If so that is definitely our faults because we had a bunch of other squads on at that time, and especially because this game was not an exhibition game at the time it was being setup. We definitely had the squads on that could have verse VbD, but since it is towards the end of the night probably only the good squads or a stacked group of blues would have been willing to play VbD at that time.

This shouldn't happen and hopefully it won't next time.

FC as a whole has become way too competitive for my liking,

Indeed. But that is something you can help remedy if you want!
