How often do you quit games?

Postby Flynn » 16 Feb 2013, 14:44

Okay, I think quitting is rude but I am doing it more often as a result of getting frustrated by being beaten all the time. I think it is so lame when you see the text "someone has disconnected" at the bottom of the screen but at the time it feels like the only viable option. Saying that I have days where I try to survive until the enemy comes a'knocking.

If you're actually in a position that you can't come back from, just march ahead with the ACU.

Most times when people quit they haven't actually lost though. I've had somebody quit because I took out his hydro engineer at 1:30 on Canis River - he could have easily come back from that setback, but instead he quit and didn't get to figure out how to deal with it.

There's a lot of satisfaction in winning a match, and I don't think it's fair to deny your opponent his justified victory. Or do like Zock says and Ctrl-K, but you only really need to do this if your entire base has been overrun and your ACU is in the middle of the ocean, Rambo-com is a better option in most cases.

there are two types of people who should think about other possibilities:

1) these who quit with having a base, they should try to win. it's still possible
2) these who run away with the ACU as their only unit, hiding somewhere in water to drag the game on for no real reason. these people can't win, they're just annoying
