Bad Company 2 - So Many Noobs Since Steam Sale

Ive been resorting to team killing lately to vent my frustration. So many low level noobs who have absolutely no idea what to do. You would expect them to instinctively have some idea, but nope. Half my time spent in the game is now spent on team killing camping snipers or smoking their view.

Anyone else getting a little ticked off? And Im always being paired up with the noob team. Im guessing Im replacing the people who gave up on the poor team that I always end up griefing.

Sorry if I sound like the angry German kid that destroys his keyboard but sometimes you gotta do it, for the good of everyone else. My only question is, what happened to all high level players? Its like they just vanished off the face of the earth.

it's just heart warming to hear there are peoples like you, making the world a better place for everyone else. taking one for the team, albeit the wrong team.. but it's the thought that counts and games really shouldn't be enjoyed by everyone after all, but only by the peoples who meet your standards and it really would be ridiculous to just find another server or join a clan just because your fun is being ruined by these less-than-peoples! where they get the nerve to try out a new game is beyond anyone's reasoning..

People like you have ruined the PC online gaming community.

It is a game. I think you are a pompous arse. Quite honestly like anything in life there are people that are good at something and are bad at something and that is the way it will always be. I also think the people that fought in WWI, WWII and so on were noobs at one point and yeah some of them died as soon as they hit combat but some of them also survived the war. Point is this is the way it is .... deal with it. Also remember it is a game. By the way are you in professional gaming ? Are you paid ? If not just be quiet.

Oh but they sure are good at staying in one spot a mile away from all the action watching their teammates die, and at the end of the game, say GG as if they were even part of it. It would be wrong to team kill or grief someone if he or she simply isnt good at the game. Team killing someone who is making absolutely no effort to help the team in a team based game, nothing wrong with that in my opinion. I like to think of my team killing and griefing as a wake up call. Maybe that person will wonder why hes being team killed and proceed to change his style of gameplay.

find a clan, play in clan server

Its something that happens in every game, deal with it. Its not as if your actually playing for something other than fun.

I dont usually stick with my team, I find it easier to get shot when I'm with my buddys. I usually sneak around the back and go about my own business.

People like you that rage easily and get trolled easily are one of the main reasons why I continue playing online first person shooters.

or maybe your just not good enough? if their are so many noobs on your team, shouldn't there be just as much on the other team? Maybe your not playing smart enough or part of a squad. I think if your having a hard time dealing with enemy snipers as you say you are, then your probably not good enough especially since BFBC2 is objective based. If I was a sniper on your team, I would wonder why some guy keeps running out in the open only to be shot by "noob" snipers and fails to capture points or plants bombs when everyone is "a mile away"

find some friends and stop being such a arse to newer players, you weren''t always good at bfbc2 so you should understand

Team killers are little trolls who have nothing better to do than ruin games for others, and you have just killed your chances of getting any respect from anyone in these forums. Congratulations. I hope you feel good about yourself.

Don't TK the noobs - teach them. We were all noobs once.

Meh, im not complaining, managed to get my Platinum star with knife yesterday :D

I'm a noob, and I do exaclty the opposite. I'll run toward the flag to be captured, and then get killed over and over trying to do it. Eventually, in my last game, I managed to capture a flag, but rather than trying to get another one, I defended the one I captured, and I killed two other players who tried to capture it. After my second kill, my team won the game! I seriously suck at multiplayer gaming, but even though I get killed and killed and killed, it's still a total blast, literally. I don't let trolls try to suck the fun out of it by putting me and my lack of skills down. I'm just not good at it, but that doesn't mean I never get any kills. I'm a little better at Crysis. My last game, I got 33 kills, and 100 deaths!!! Not bad for me lol:)psx_warrior

Good man. I got no problems with team mates who give it their all and bust their asses to complete the objectives. KDR is the most useless measure of teamplay. Win or lose, my buddies always have a laugh at our KDRs. We care more about badass flag captures/detonation/other epic moments.

And to TC, seriously man? Just because something isn't working out for you, everyone else is a noob? Maybe you're the one in the wrong server if everyone seems content to snipe and lose. If they're not complaiing about it, at least some people are happy doing what they're doing and having some measure of fun. I can't stand people polluting game servers with their egos and superiority complexes. There are people who can take charge and people will want to follow them... you aren't one of them (if by any indication of the griefing, something I have 0 respect for).

When theres a Noob Camping it up on my team I like nothing better than to light them up like a Christmas tree !:lol:

Phat_Jay

there are 2 categories,noobs trhat want to learn and become good eventually and noobs that stay noobs forever cause they stick to doing the same crap over and over.I guess TC is referring to the second category which can be very frustrating.As for the"play to have fun "argument,thats the point,they dont let him have fun,by not playing as a team they ruin the game

RedDanDoc

To be honest, I always do well whenever the team is losing. I try to encourage them, or even capture flags to push them forward. Sometimes the latter one, works.
In some matches, I even find myself with the most kills in both teams.

[QUOTE="RedDanDoc"][QUOTE="FelipeInside"] How about teaching people? I had trouble playing BC2 too when I started, there is absolutely no tutorial or even hint as to what to do in MP. I had to get a friend of mine to come over and teach me...FelipeInside

regarding the COD games all those perks dont add up to me it should be more of a level playing field. Theres that many perks that you dont know if somebody is cheating or not. I was chasing somebody once and they Jumped 20 feet over a wall. I dont know if that is the spring heeled jack perk or something.

Best formula for the Battlefield games regarding new players is to be either a medic or support then you can level up quickly whilst getting a grasp of the game mechanics.

currently am one of those noobs :) got it last weekend for PC (had the 360 version since launch) so am still getting used to it.. although its the same game i found a huge difference between the PC & 360 version.. (not just visuals but seems faster paced and i have to say PC community is better, more teamwork etc)

.... really? It's not a hard game to grasp. :P

An irascible individual like yourself and half the occupants of this topic are the reason why I, a person otherwise interested in learning to become a good player and support a team, do not play anything online.

Most online titles, I have found, are populated exclusively by those members of society who find it somehow justifiable to make others suffer for their own impatience and lack of perspective. Few things on the internet are as disgusting and pitiable as the online gaming junkie, a foul creature whose mouth fountains forth profanity and whose hands gain whinging voices of their own through the cubed plastic medium of keyboard.

Away, fiend. I'll have naught to do with you and your species; as I take my leave I will congratulate you, however reluctantly, on affirming my decision not to purchase BFBC2 during the sale and instead buy Serious Sam. Thank you, good sir. Thank you for providing yourself as such an excellent specimen of a detestable subspecies.

Not all of us are like that, good sir.

I played a lot of BFBC2 once, and granted, I was never that good, but I always tried supporting the team whenever possible.

Yeah, 1337s forget they were noobs once. That's why I pwn them :P

My whole clan got banned frmm this server because the admins were all new to the game and we were all like 18 kills 1 death. They thought we were all hacking. Of course, our teammate (no acquaintance of ours) was hacking and they didn't even kick him.

Well, I'm one of those new players that got the game on the steam sale, and most of the time I'm at the top of the team, above people with levels close to 50.
From what I've seen, the levels are more representative of the time spent on the game than your actual skill.
In every game you have people who are good and some who are not, and the fact that more players join will give you an increased number of both kinds of players.
It's a game, people are new, they can't be as good as someone who's played since the game came out. People play games to have fun, and if you don't enjoy it and need to resort to team killing you may want to stop playing that game.

Kokuro_Kun

Ok...? You want the clan's website? TS3 channel? I got on their TS and told them to unban us and the admin said he would. IDK if he has but he also reported the other guy to PB after I confirmed his suspicions of aimbotting. Believe what you like though, no skin off my nose.

I've seen this ever since BC2 was released, and I haven't noticed a change before or after the Steam sale. There are people who play rush and just snipe as attackers, never mind that Defenders have an unlimited amount of tickets... I'm sure you get new people of all types.
