I see in this thread a bunch of elitist old school players pissing on new players and demeaning their attempts to learn the game, and failing to be proper 'FTW'.
No wonder the player base is stuck. You have to be contactable 24/7, and you have to learn a very intricate and difficult game by getting your ass kicked over and over with little guidance. God forbid you start this game from scratch as a solo, because you will have NO clue. And forgive me, but not everyone can invest 12+ hours per day to learn the ins and outs of this game. The only solos who PWN are the ones who have played this game for several rounds or who somehow have a very intricate knowledge and understanding of the game mechanics. This is my 3rd round and I have neither.
Maybe if some of you e-penis waving hardcore, old timers focused more on training a few noob players each round (and some do) rather than recruiting all the old-school players you can find...in order to have an UBER alliance, things might be more fun. And people that try bush, might actually stay.
You people sh!t on blackwolf, but at least he recruited noobs and tried to train them.
To be honest though commy as with every game ever created. There will always be the elite and the best at this game. It shouldn't be easy so that ANYONE can pick it up and play for the win. Skill and activity are the only things which determine your rank. Having all the activity in the world will still mean you get smashed by a more experienced player and thats how it should be. The top are the top because they are the best. They aren't undermining people who aren't as good as them, they are merely highlight the naivity of these players who assume just because they want to win they should have a chance. Anyone looking to understand the situation of the game rather than purely to attack or defend their own opinions will realise that PB are winning because they are superior in terms of all the skills required to play the game.
Why would anyone want to play in a group that isn't going to win when they are putting all their time and effort into the game? They have worked hard for their current rank and the only way to stop them winning is for people to stop going "OMG i lost lets moan" is to spend the rest of the round and try to become more knowledgable about the game mechanics, have more wars with other alliances to become more familiarised with the game. The ideology that people need to hold your hand and train you to be a pro just makes me want to vomit. The best get where they are by learning the game and figuring things out for themselves, it is only you who is responsible for your in-game capabilities. Not f0xx, Cyrus, Azzer or me. YOURS
