i like crits even when im getting murdered by them, its part of the game he needs to get over it
[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.
Mateo = Hates crits since he is always being crocketed
I do not deny this.
People who like crits are looking for excitement.
People who don't like crits only care about their numbers on leaderboards.
I enjoy being entertained. I dislike being killed by some random person who I should have killed but who instead killed me.
What's more fun? "I just died with the intel because I was at 20 health and saw a scout." or "I just got a point for my team because I got a lucky crit on a scout that nearly got me while I had 20 health then captured the intel!" I say 2.
What's more fun, I just let my entire team down because some scout with the intel and 20hp killed me by sheer luck or I just saved my team by stopping a scout with the intel from getting away?
personally i like crits. satisfaction through my sheer ungodly luck is fun, and i can actually laugh at the way i die since i don't pay attention to the scoreboard (or, at least, my kill death ratio)
the only exception is when i get a crit for a pre-defined reason, like a buffbanner or kritzkreig. then the fun gets sapped out and i'm sitting there with an actual explanation for why i just sent that poor defenseless heavy into a wall
But the game shouldn't be based on ungodly luck to this scale otherwise it becomes a roll of the dice to see who wins, which is just ridiculous.
It makes the game from beating somebody with a calculator ("oh i have two hundred and one health left so i can take three hits from his class") to winning by actually shooting other people. Same for damage spread.
So you would go up against a heavy while you were a scout with 50 hp on the basis of you might get a critical and kill him? That seems somewhat fishy to me.
