There is a world of difference between top scoring and score-whoring. Scorewhores are the single worst thing in the game. I was merely pointing out that when played properly, a Volus can still dish out the pain.

Now that is actually a point of which definition I didn't understand correctly, then. Explain it to me maybe.

In my mind

a scorwar is singularly playing to get the highest score, and
I) either get it (even if she/he must walk over the dead bodies of his closest buddies/cheating) or
Ii) are very destructive to avoid others getting it- ie even torpedoing own mission like stealing the pizza and running away or breaking off lan connection as host to avoid the scoreboard been shown with everybody falling back automatically to the lobby. In real life these people are extremely lonely.

In contrast a self-proclaimed top-scorer are a e-peen chaser but probably not as benign as the scorwar. This is constantly seen in videos as checking the score, and will feel very unwell if at place 4, lest someone talks about it here at BSN. In game they are detectable as those people shortly freezing after a wave ( ie no messing around/ halted instead of running/ walking.

Then there a players that simply happen to have killed more than the rest- are in no way phased by that, also don't mention it, since they know that it's irrelevant in a coop. Aha- oh- well whatever people.

Then there are the others, that sometimes win sometimes loose, playing to enjoy the time but not really striving to improve, happywith everything staying the same.

Please correct my narrow perspective on these things...

You have a narrow perspective on these things.  :P

 

I don't care about score, and I don't check it during games unless I'm synced and I want to see who's scoring the highest so that I'll spectate using them. Unless I'm with BSNers, in which case I'll automatically choose the BSNer without even looking at their score.

 

I am not alone. Not even close.

 

Discussions about score, epeen and OP kits couldn't be less interesting to me unless they formed part of film The English Patient.

 

None of that means I don't pay attention to what others are doing in-game, and when we do get back to the lobby I'll be interested in the medals much more than the score, because the score is completely fecking irrelevant, but the medals aren't. Sometimes I top score, sometimes I don't.  I do want to be as good a player as I can be, and even now I still have things to learn - but none of my hoped for improvement will come from checking or worrying about score.

 

I play with scorewh0res all the time, but it only ever bothers me on 3,6 and 10.  The only BSNer I've ever played with who I would describe as one of those would be your good friend ev, but I know very well when I'm being trolled, so it didn't bother me. Much  ;)

btw.,... I like Giant.

like Giant Haz more, but the additional grenades, leaks my ps3 memory to much.

 

So I confess, (wrong thread) I do preset Giant sometimes.

Geez.. I always thought of it as people rage quitting because they had a terrible game or because they tried so hard to be top scorer and failed.

But breaking off connection to avoid scoreboard been shown... COME ON, people actually do that ?? That's sick, literally...

 

 

NO!

Most of the time, in gold or platinum if a map and/or an ennmy is preset I will leave the lobby.

On bronze or silver, I never play preset games as I really want that extra XP.

 

But it's not just about the XP, I avoid preset lobby even with level 20 kits.

I'd rather roll the dice and get a map/ennemy I hate rather than knowing what I'm about to get from the start,

especially in platinum where it's kind of exciting sometimes.

 

I make exceptions for a few maps I really like, GIANT is one of them for sure .

Who doesn't like it can just move on or ask the person hosting to set it to whatever else.

Can we get a mod that allows us to choose which maps we do not want while searching for lobbies/GiPs?

Giant is such a shitty map, never cared much for Giant and it's probably the map I played the least back in the days.

Stop pre-setting anything. UUG and UUP is the way which was invented by our founders. Anything else slows me down leveling up stuff. I'm still trying to promote here^^.

Good luck with that on PS3 if you roll Haz Giant/Ghost Collectors. Not all of us preset because we want to preset. Sadly UU is dangerous on PS3.

Arkhne is right, basically this happens when PS3 players drop into HGiant/Ghost Collectors

that will be a feature in the enhanced edition... 

 

Ok, can we get a kickstarter for the enhanced edition now?  Will money talk?

No, he didn't. It had to be removed because Microsoft own the copyright to all BSOD (blue screens of death). Go Mac, else prepare to sail the high seas (giant or knot )

Sorry, mods are only paid to track activity here in BSN. Outside work - they can be a lot of fun.
