Hello!
This game has developed into a game where people don’t take the time to appreciate playing with other people. I just though I would post a comment and just maybe the guild leaders will ask their members to be a little more courteous.
Normally I don’t think badly of people but Saturday night I was on one of the ****tiest teams I have ever had the privilege of knowing. It doesn’t have anything to do with their combat abilities or knowing their profession either. The majority of the team was made up of STORM and one Tradskillz member.
I started off the mission asking for extra buffs like we always do in the first room. The only buff I got was an NCU increase and a critical strike increase buff. Now that would have been nice if I had my Ithaca on, however, I changed to a pepper pistol so I wouldn’t have to buff my BM and MM. Why even give me a NCU increase if no one is going to buff me. Most fixers will also give me a speed buff with the NCU increase.
When I enter a mission I always give everyone my longer term, short term health buffs, and other buffs if they have the ncu space and the need for them. They don’t have to ask me, I have been playing this game long enough to know who needs what.
I am primarily a healing doctor and I spend my time chain healing to keep everybody in the team topped off on their health. This takes considerable nano packs and I use the 125 to 200 level nano rechargers. I usually always heal from inside another room, one or two rooms away from the fight. Which doesn’t allow me much chance to loot a body first or a chest first, so I am left with picking through the leftovers. Which I don’t mind, I am use to averaging 4mil in my savings and I have friends that help me out when I need something. On the rare occasion I will team with much higher levels that don’t loot anything so I get to loot and the only draw back to that is, I get left behind.
Occasionally I will attempt to get to the chest first and this does take some planning on my part. Then I will be the only one at the chest trying to pick up my lock pick so that I can open the chest. When all of a sudden someone will come up behind me and snatch the chest from me. If I see someone stand at a chest I always allow them their chance and then when they walk away I take my turn. Ok! So here I am thinking to myself “No I wasn’t trying to open the chest or anything, I was just here admiring how Funcom placed the chest here in the first place.” I can see this being a mistake once but numerous times is just being deliberately greedy. So I just stopped trying and concentrated on healing them as they all split up in different directions.
Through the whole mission this went on and I just figured these are just a bunch of selfish kids playing the game. Plus, probably this is how the leader of STORM and TRADSKILLZ have taught their guild members, to be selfish, greedy, inconsiderate and to think “very man out for themselves.” Have any of you looted the boss and took something that you really wanted but ended up giving it to somebody else, someone you didn’t know, just to be nice? Probably not?
Then it came time for the boss. While I’m buffing and the rest of the team heads up to start killing the boss. I get up to the boss and I have to catch up on healing them. Then when the boss dies I try to loot, just like most people but someone else beats me to him first. (no big deal, its free for all) I have never been a faster looter anyway, I think it has some thing to do with my computer not loading the graphics fast enough. As this is happening someone completes the mission. I don’t even get to see what is looted because they are killing the lackeys and I am looking at my team member list to make sure all is ok!
My inventory is full because I forgot to sell from the previous missions. I try to put an item in a back pack, so that I can take my token out of the overflow window. This is all happening within seconds. Then a fixer grids us out, with no warning and I loose my token and reward item. When I grid everyone out of a mission, I always tell everyone I am starting the grid and did everyone get what they wanted. I dont have much to look forward to in this game, other then getting my 1k token board. So to loose my tokens because of a few thoughtless players, hurts.
Being ignored because maybe I’m not a guild mate or myabe I am not exciting enough to play with, loosing experience from dying, loosing a token or item has never bothered me. I have played this game from launch and it was a lot harder back then so I can appreciate some things that new players didn't get to experience.
Now days its just a matter of running through a mission mindlessly. However, I am sure there are others who would sure appreciate a little more consideration on the part of others. Try not thinking about yourself STORM and TRADSKILLZ, give others in your team a chance. You invited them to team, so treat them as if they are part of your guild.
some just more than others
