Teams aren't playing the objective

I understand that, but try pushing the entire enemy team on a capture zone in something not designed to tank shots or assault. Without team support it’s impossible, therefore meaning he had to have had no support for taking a cap. A M36 can be one shot by any HEAT or HE filled round, and the M1A3 76’s armor; while not utter shite isn’t tanking shots from a panther, tiger, let alone a Jagd variant of these.

How about a re-cap on what the OP first said.

    • There was only the 1 zone to take.
    • None of his team were anywhere near to the zone to help take it.
    • His team was too busy getting kills instead of winning.
    • He was the ONLY 1 near the zone.
    • The enemy had already got a stong presence at the zone.

Then you say you

The team had no intention on winning, and you critisise him from not taking the only zone on the map which is already crawling with enemy - and he is on his own.
What is there to figure that out.

Woah, verbally assaulting someone because they didn’t understand the way I said it the first time isn’t their fault, I explain things in a very southern American way.

I have verbally assaulted no one. If I wanted to verbally abuse you - you would know it. Being a person of my years and with my years of vocabulary, I could verbally abuse you in ways you would not even understand.

It has nothing to do with the way you are speaking, it’s the lack of understanding of what the OP said.

I can’t understand how you can not understand that 1 person can not take a zone that is swarming with enemy and then use that against him to belittle him in front of people on the forum.

10/4; Do your best.

I didn’t “criticize” anyone, I was asking about why no objectives were shown on his Results . . . that’s all
And if anyone is “reading” anything into statements here . . . I’d vote you’re the winner there.
It’s easy to assume a lot of things, but prolly a good idea not to make those assumptions “fact” in your mind without further clarification . . . and that’s all I was trying to get actually

I would rather like to see the chat activity than the number of caps.

And perhaps you were not the only one with this judgement. What did the chat look like?

I don’t think the chat matters much really. What the OP had ALSO said in his 1st post was…

This was from the very start of the game. I thought he made it quite clear that none of his team were interested in capping from the very beginning. No other team members would have thought it a suicide mission, because none of them wanted to cap in the 1st place, so being a suicide mission wouldn’t have even crossed their mind. If they had tried capping with the OP, they would have evened it up and maybe even taken the zone… but they more or less all ran away in any direction except the direction to capture the objective. I know it happens, i have seen stupid teams do this so many times myself and have been in exactly the same position trying to cap on my own, because from all the years of playing Battlefield 2, 3 and 4, I learnt to play the objective if you want to win.

Me. When I see a stupid team do this, I just 1 death leave because they are not even worth the thousands in rapair bills.

This has been a common issue for a lot of matches now and I suspect it might actually be bots. My theory is that that they’re trying to go to a capture point that does not exist due to the gamemode.

That is why chat matters.

When the chat is oddly silent, I start getting bad vibes…

Not just that. Players often routinely take up position for the 3 cap game. And when they notice “there is no cap”, it is too late. It helps to remind people to go for A. Same as it helps to remind people of fuel during larger operations maps in air.

Conquest game type is the worst.

I’ve noticed an exponential decline in use of chat ingame over the last 4 years. Now, typically, if I say something, I will be the ONLY person saying anything in chat the entire match. That’s crazy in a multiplayer game. I can go like 10 matches without seeing a typed message. It’s very weird.

Aside from people just deciding not to communicate, most console players do not have a keypad or keyboard hooked up. So, there is that too.

In the matches I’m in, it’s like 90% PC players. That’s what’s so jarring.

It’s funny that whenever I do meet people that actually talk in chat, it’s always the rounds where people seem to actually know what they’re doing. It further proves my point of most matches having bots in them.

I’m not quite sure about it being all bots, but there’s definitely been a communal change even if bots accounted for 80% of the players. The remaining 20% would still have said something from time to time in years past. They do in enlisted, of all games!

Enlisted is a lot harder of a game to get bots working in, plus there’s a lot less incentive for account farmers to use bots since the game isn’t as active as War Thunder.
