How does experience work?

Quoting ReD-RubY,

Quoting zwijnstijn, reply 14I know the AI is cheating

If ur playing an easy Ai and can't beat it you need to realise that u suck.
Ur brain can't handle the complexity of this game and you should either:

•GTFO
•Understand that u suck so u can stop sucking
•Both of above.

Stop try to find excuses to urself for being bad. It's the main reasons why noobs stay noob.
Coz they always blame their loss on something else.

Wow, a true and blue internet tough guy... Sometimes I wish the internet was bio-metrically age restricted, you know, to keep the prepubescent mooks out.

The correct way to answer this question was " Zwijnstijn, why not upload a replay of the game in question and I'm sure someone will take a looksy and give tips."

Expecting an emotionally neutral response from Ruby? You must be new here...

Although I fail to see how a simple question of how experience works has escalated into questioning the skill level of others...

Maybe the AI was taking down ur strikecraft?? Also, was he taking out anything of yours like ships, structures or whatnot??

Every game has their good cops and bad cops HLT, and when things are about multiplayer I'd much rather have HLT as a bad cop that no cop at all.

Still, for single player issues like having trouble beating the easy AI, maybe you can turn it down a notch ruby, or just leave it to someone else. Once they indicated their interested in MP, I'll send them to you and they'll be all yours.

Ever the diplomat. You mean RR as the bad cop, of course. I'd make a terrible bad cop.

When I first saw his schtick, I didn't know what to make of it because it seemed incredible to me that anyone could think it was acceptable to treat others that way. Over time it became clear to me that he was serious, and not just kidding around. Even worse, I have seen others starting to emulate his super-rudeness, so I thought I would finally take a stand for civility. As I said, insulting people is much more likely to drive them away than it is to make them excited and enthused. If he wants to drive multiplayer to extinction or reduce it to a meeting of Asperger's Anonymous I guess that's his business, but I object when he creates an atmosphere that discourages new players from asking questions.

This also applies to the people who feel that old threads should not be resurrected, and throw around the "necro" label in lieu of answering the question, by the way. Not everyone has been playing this game since forever, and if a new player wants to add a comment or ask a question on a pertinent yet currently inactive thread, they should be able to do so and get a civil answer rather than be on the receiving end of a mocking and useless barb.

Sorry but only noobs need kindness when it comes down to learning a game.

If u need a teacher that is kind to u. Ur not gonna get any better then a regular ico noob.
The best way to teach someone to become really good is with bruteforce.

U ever seen a Spetznas dude getting trained with candy and a popsicle?

Those people who actully have taken the time and ate my shitsandwich is actully above average or more now.
Also I treat noobs like shit untill they proven to me that they want and can learn the game.
ALL noobs got the same mentality. And that's why they/you suck at everygame you play.

And by sucking I mean, that you're just an average player on every game. You never reach the Apex.
I haven't been playing this game since forever.
I bought the game in late July 2012. By The end of August I was playing skilled games and in the begining of September, I opened my first thread to help the community.

Either u have it, or u don't. If u can't beat an easy ai. Ur never gonna get good.
And if u really want to get good eventho u lost vs an easy ai. U need to start eating the shit sandwich and realise that ur fucking horrible and stop making excuses why ur losing all the time.

"OMG noob team"
"Ffs help me"
"Feed me"
" Ai cheating omg dev"
"I'm not used to this speed"

One could argue about the learning methods.... but there is something nobody can reasonable argue against and that is your lack of manners.

Teaching somebody something the hard way is not identical to being a jerk. That is a distinction you seem to be unaware of.

You claim that your intention is to challenge people into coming onto MP.

Well... I have bad news for you... out of 10000 players.... maybe 2 will be feel challenged by your attitude.... the remaining 9998 will merley be disgusted and reconsider MP alltogether.

This is a game.

the point of a game is to have fun.

Tolerating your bad manners does not constitute fun.

And as such, even if you were the best Sins player ever, there will be no place for you in any of my games.

I prefer a nice noob over you any day.

So do us all a favour and stop harming the community by making it clear beyond any doubt to new players that people like you populate the MP.

I've played one and a half games of MP. I really don't feel like playing anymore matches if I can expect this.

Multiplayer Sins really is thriling. You shouldn't be put off by a few people that aren't as respectful as the many other guys who play Sins online.

Even though some veteran players - like Ruby, for example - tend to be a bit rude, they do really try to help other people improve in Sins in their own way. I'd recommend every new player to check out some replays made by the pro Sins players so they understand better what they do wrong and how to improve.

Same goes for the elites that rather have a rude elites then a nice dumpsternoob like urself.
Sucking at a game isn't fun. Being a noob isn't fun.
Not being able to beat an Hard Ai after 2 hours isn't fun.
It just makes u look retarded.

It's like a mentally handicapped kid laughing when he is throwing a rock against a wall, you could say he is experiencing true joy, but that doesn't remove the fact that he is a fucking retard and doesn't know any better.
Throwing a rock against a wall isn't fun.
