I was playing tonight with a group of friends, the TTL Gunslingers. Tonight was the first time ever to be ashamed of them, and that is saying something. For a group that is known for their in and out of game behavior I have suffered a disappointment with their teamwork game play.
In a match where everyone uses the skills they have, I was doing well. I am good at driving and gunning (roadkill squad), and was doing good the majority of the match. The first mistake I make in the match was a communication error where I drove the wrong way not seeing where the objective was (5-10 second window of error). Before I could correct my mistake my revered teammates bailed on me, which is alright in itself, but then for the rest of the game trash talked me for that error. Not mentioning the fact that my driving was critical in at least one of the points we scored, almost two. (I have not reviewed the film to count yet...) Soon afterward in some chaos jumped on a hog turret, silent since the barrage of criticism, and racked up a killing spree.
My performance was exemplary considering the objective and the game at large. We won the match but they did not win any respect in my eyes. That is not how you treat your enemies, much less your allies and good gaming friends.

Unfortunately, everyone had already been having a rough night before we jumped in with them, so they were already kind of grouchy. It happens. It was probably a good thing it was a short session tonight.
ReplyDeleteI know it happens...I bear no malice just a desire to have my head stop throbbing with this cold
