Subject: AR starts on countdown.

Fancy joining a group, but don't wan't people too obsessed and serious? Want a group where messing around is a given?

DO YOU WANT TO BE A NINJA?

Then I have three words for you. Team Flying Ninja

Alternatively, add me and we will be happy to tell you about ourselves.

We shouldn't have to play like retards (about all AR starts promotes) because they want to play like retards. If anything every game type should be DMR/AR start combos and the Pistol should be a pick up.


So the retards have to accept without question whatever it is that you want to play, yet when they get their vote... no, they're scrubs and they need to get off the game. Right. That attitude = -blam!- elitist.

If players spawn with both a DMR and an AR then there is nothing to complain about on either side

Exactly.

But Captain AR starts (Geordies Soul) has no reply to this. It's just painful to admit that kids pick AR starts because they get mowed down by DMR specialists like it's nobody's business.

But the game wide solution is real simple ... make the entire game DMR/AR starts and leave the Pistol as a pick up (or secondary weapon in Swat/Snipers, etc). That way the scrubs who want to charge, spray ARs and melee can do so while the players that actually have thumbs can use the DMR. At least everybody gets to START with their favorite weapon.

It's not painful to admit anything. It's painful to watch you guys tying yourselves in knots though. You claim I can't admit the so-called "real reason" why they pick AR starts. I've called them retards, said about how they don't want to play against DMR's, even argued in FAVOUR of you, and given you pointers on why, actually, AR starts is beneficial to a good player. But no, you ignore all that and be a dick.

I see the pair of you basically ignored my point. Yes, starting with both weapons might seem like a good solution, but again, you're catering to your own choices first. The retards want to play a game with LESS DMR's, not MORE AR's. Simply making it AR/DMR starts does not cater to them at all. alternating games of AR starts and DMR starts does, but no, you refuse to accept my argument of:

Why do people play on garbage maps?


Bad kids tend to like bad maps and settings.

  • 01.14.2012 4:50 AM PDT

Because bad people want that slight chance of not getting completely butt swiped on it by decent teams.

You're not seeing the argument at all.

Why should we have to run for our gun of choice because the scrubs don't have the thumbs to use it? Why should we have to turn our back and go find one when we can just start with one? Players that avoid maps (that say DMR at the end) because they suck with certain weapons is -blam!- ridiculous, and speaks for itself.

How can you not see that picking maps just to try and level the playing field, or to bring the competition down to their sloppy, -blam!-, idiotic level is probably a sign that these derps shouldn't even come online to begin with?

When the scrubs 'get their vote' they're screwing us over as much as we're screwing them over when we get DMRs. We hate that we start with ARs, they hate that we start with DMRs and proceed to wipe the floor with them.

But what's the difference? I mean seriously, we wipe the floor with them even when it's AR starts, because as long as there are DMRs on the map, I'm going to wind up with one. So why are we complaining? Because it's utter bull-blam!- that we should have to run to pick up a DMR, giving them an opportunity to nade us to death. We're going to -blam!- on them anyway but why inconvenience us? Why penalize us for knowing how to use a DMR? Why try to force us to play the laughable charge, spray and melee game? It's silly.

It's not about being an elitist. It's about getting the short end of the stick.

ARs on Countdown is a retarded gametype on a retarded map for retarded people.

If you play Team Slayer, expect to play this as it suits the occupants of the playlist perfectly. The whole game should be DMR start, excluding specialised playlists. That way, everyone is happy.

The only reason bad players don't like DMR starts is because they can't use one. Start everyone with DMR/AR and the bad players will use the AR against each other and the good players will use the DMR. If the bad players lose to DMR users, that's their fault for running around with the AR. 'Adapt'.

Besides, good players should get matched with good players and bad players should get matched with bad players. If Reach's Trueskill works- oh wait, never mind.

It's popular in Squad Slayer as well.

No joke, if they'd just make this playlist AR starts and cut out Countdown like they did Sword Base I'd be in it until Halo 4 comes out.
