| Regulith:
Mateo and I just had an argument about critical hits in Team Fortress 2. Regulith: also every cp_badlands server seems to be either locked, nocrits, or both Regulith: or empty [CC]Mateo: whats wrong with no crits Regulith: dumb Regulith: crits make the game exciting and unpredictable [CC]Mateo: I guess you would thing that, you know, "games that require skills being dumb" Regulith: what Regulith: no [CC]Mateo: also unpredictable isnt always a good thing [CC]Mateo: there's no reason to like crits :I Regulith: i like them for exactly the reason i said Regulith: if you shoot a crocket and a heavy and kill him, forget yeah Regulith: at a heavy* [CC]Mateo: which means you suck, in my eyes, because the only reason anyone finds them "exciting" is if the amount of kills they get from crits is a comparatively large amount of the kills they get Regulith: when there's some annoying spy and you crit kukri him, then forget yeah Regulith: no [CC]Mateo: compared to the kills they get. Regulith: i rarely get crits Regulith: you know, because they're rare Regulith: you just don't like them because they always happen in the enemy's favor [CC]Mateo: still though you should be able to kill the spy without crits [CC]Mateo: and if you cant you have no skill Regulith: and i do Regulith: but it's fun to get a crit every so often and get it done quickly Regulith: because then you know the spy is going "this is bullstuff" [CC]Mateo: but if you can kill him otherwise why would the crit make a difference Regulith: and you laugh [CC]Mateo: and that makes you a troll Regulith: well then i guess i'm a troll [CC]Mateo: also if you could kill the spy without crits and then the spy kills you because of crits that makes it all the worse Regulith: here's the thing: i don't care Regulith: so someone got a crit? it's a damn game, jegus [CC]Mateo: And Im saying it's a dumb part of the game. you obviously do care about it to some extent since you're arguing about it Regulith: i care that you think crits shouldn't exist Regulith: because they're a game mechanic Regulith: and they belong Regulith: it makes the game that more exciting [CC]Mateo: Did I ever tell you my brown townogy as to why thats a bullstuff reason? Regulith: "will they get a crit? who knows!" [CC]Mateo: it being a game mechanic, that is Regulith: no [CC]Mateo: If you were instantly killed every 60 seconds for no reason other than because it was a part of the game, a lot less people would be saying "it should stay because it's a game mechanic" [CC]Mateo: Just because it's a game mechanic doesnt mean it should stay in the game. Regulith: i can't argue with that, and not because it's a good reason, because it's not, but because there's so much wrong with it there's nothing to argue [CC]Mateo: what's wrong with it then [CC]Mateo: you say because it's a game mechanic it should stay in the game Regulith: not ONLY because it's a game mechanic Regulith: because it's a game mechanic that can tip the game Regulith: let's say your team is losing Regulith: to a heavy/medic pair and being owned [CC]Mateo: that's why it loving shouldnt exist Regulith: then some soldier shoots a crocket Regulith: and pow [CC]Mateo: because it can tip the game. Regulith: ... [CC]Mateo: they have classes and team scramble to even that stuff out [CC]Mateo: seriously Regulith: tdude [CC]Mateo: get someone who isnt a stuffty spy [CC]Mateo: or get your own damn heavy medic Regulith: why WOULDN'T you want to tip the game [CC]Mateo: you shouldnt need crits to tip the game, that is what skill is for Regulith: "well these guys are losing right now so they lose the whole round" Regulith: so basically you're saying there should be no luck involved in tf2 at all [CC]Mateo: and if they have a better team setup and players who are better than your team they damn well should win [CC]Mateo: no Im saying there shouldnt be luck involved that can kill you instantly for no reaosn other than because the game said so [CC]Mateo: reason* Regulith: if you had skill you could overcome most crits though Regulith: reflect crockets [CC]Mateo: and if you have skill you dont need crits though Regulith: kill the person before they crit you [CC]Mateo: so why are crits even needed [CC]Mateo: and if you dont have skill then get skill, someone who sucks shouldnt be good Regulith: this is a never ending cycle and i'm going to stop arguing this bullstuff with you because it's only annoying me 4:13 PM - Regulith: good day [CC]Mateo: lolk. Regulith: crits are like abortion, a conclusion will never be met [CC]Mateo: an agreement has already been met, the supreme court argued and came to a decision [CC]Mateo: crits on the otherhand were just decided by valve and stuff. Regulith: but everyone else has different views Regulith: and every argument is always countered by another one [CC]Mateo: however [CC]Mateo: I believe they are similar in one case [CC]Mateo: the side of the intelligent people actually has factual and logical evidence as to why their side is right Regulith: hurrr Not that it'll solve anything, but let's hear some good points from both sides. |
| Dusty12:
I only like definite crits, such as a headshot. Crits are annoying, especially in one of our server's random melee-only battles. |
| Niven:
The server I play at has 35% crits. Right Truce? :3 |
| Truce:
I prefer nocrits. Takes luck out of the game so it's more about skill. --- Quote from: Niven on May 22, 2010, 04:28:01 PM ---The server I play at has 35% crits. Right Truce? :3 --- End quote --- Yup. I play there too, but nothing too serious; just with some friends. |
