Playing multiplayer shooters with randoms is so fucking aggravating because they don't know how to play. I'm not talking about their shooting/aiming skills. I'm talking about how people don't know how to take and defend objectives. And it's just common sense, nothing do with skill. You would think with so many multiplayer shooters and so many people playing, the majority would understand what to do.
Any objective-based mode is about having map control. You control more of the map than the other team, and you'll win. Instead of rushing out at the start of the game to take key map points, most people move out all slow letting the enemy basically win the game in the first minute because you didn't even try to win. Not rushing out only makes you EASIER to kill, not harder. If the enemy is just allowed to get into that sweet position and they are a better shot than you, can't you see your chances of killing that player only got much harder instead of easier?
Players don't know how to defend objectives. I see people constantly sitting on the objective or sitting behind the objective. You defend objectives from in front of them and keeping the enemy as far from the objective as possible. What happens when the whole team is defending the objective (at or behind it)? An enemy push will eventually wipe you all out and then they are at the objective with no chance of spawning back in and being able to stop the enemy from getting the objective. However, if you have a defensive front set up ahead of the objective and you all get wiped out (which you will eventually), you can spawn back in and get to the objective to stop the enemy.
People that can't snipe (which is 99% of the people that snipe), shouldn't snipe. I'm tired of people sniping from the spawn only helping their own team get spawn camped. Not only can't most snipers actually aim and shoot well, they are not even in the right position to properly snipe to begin with.
Then, you have all these players as far from the objective as possible laying prone in some corner and they can't even get more kills than deaths, how do you fail so much? Can't you at least figure out that what you are doing isn't working and you need to try something else? I'm not telling you not to camp either because the point of every shooter is to camp. You push out, take over the key map points that have a great sightline on a chokepoint, then you camp your ass off. That's how you properly camp and help your team win, not sitting is some useless corner.
Games have killcams nowadays. Pay attention to where the better players are positioning themselves and try to get into those good positions that are netting them all these kills while you go like 5 kills - 8 deaths while other players have over 30 kills. Don't you think you need to change your tactics?
I don't care if your gun skills are not that good, that's fine. All I ask is that you TRY TO FUCKING WIN instead of playing like a coward and only helping your team lose. If you complain about spawn camping, you are most likely one of the players that greatly contributed to your team getting spawn camped. I've played against teams that had below 1 KDRs for the game, pushed hard all game, and never got spawn camped while my team did win quite handily, it's just that they never let us spawn camp them.
If you are afraid to die, you already lost the game. Just like baseball, you can't be afraid of the ball.
