Why do noobs think "noobifying a competitive video game is going to help them beat a pro-gamer?

[Wade12345]

Age of Empires?

I can beat 5 max difficulty AI's allied against me. Do you think some interface changes are going to help a noob beat me? If you make it easier for me to control my units, I'd smoke 7 noob humans allied against me. as it is, I've never lost a 1vs1 in Age of Empires 3.

First person shooter.

I am top 100 in the world on Unreal Engine games when I actually bohter playing them. I am so good at FPS I will win even if everyone else allies against me. I don't care if it's 20 players shooting at me, I'll kill all 20 of them once each before any of them even manage to hit me one time, especially on the Unreal engine based games. On Gunz the duel (20 years ago) I was actually within the top 100 world wide within 2 weeks of installing the game. I was top 1000 within 7 days of playing, then a guy already in the top 100 taught me a few tricks with the sword which I didint' understand, a nd I started using only shotgun and sword, and made it to top 100 within anothr week.

Starcraft 1? I used to be able to beat 3 a+ players allied against me in a true 1vs3 handicap.

Adding a few button interfaces DOES NOT AND SHOULD NOT help a noob beat a pro gamer who has a 145 I. Q.

On another FPS game WAR Final Assault, at the arcade, you have a radar. Noobs thought the radar helped a noob beat a pro. It doesn't. The Radar helps a pro avoid getting hit unexpectedly by a double-team from noobs. Putting a Radar in Gunz the Duel or any other Unreal engine game would just make me TEN TIMES MORE INVINCIBLE than I already am.

How good am I at Player vs environment in the original Unreal game? I can put maximum "god-like bots allied against me and play to 100 consecutive kills without any of the bots ever managing to deal any damage to me.

Do you think some scrub noob is supposed to beat me at any of these games?

If you suck at competitive gaming, buy a different game, or stick to watching football on television.

Anyway, game developers market their games to everyone to maximize profitability, but pro gamers are always going to demolish anyone with a 130I. Q. or less. It is no challenge for me to log onto Starcraft 1 and DESTROY an a+ player even if I haven't played the game in 5 consecutive years. It's not even a warm-up to win a 1vs1 against an a+ player. I can eliminate him at any time any way I want to and he has no idea what happened to him.

By the way, I'm better at "non-competitive games" than you losers too. I've done perfect low level runs of several JRPGs and Advanced Dungeons and Dragons RPGs, including Baldur's Gate 2.

So if you thought you being a low I. Q. noob, were actually good at Dungeons and Dragons or Final FAntasy games, you should see what a pro gamer can do on those games. I can kill Jon Irenicus demi-god "slayer form" with two level 7 characters on Core Rules difficulty.

When they add mechanics that make certain type of competetive games a bit easier the players who already were better in the games without the added mechanics are going to use said mechanics to win even more, thats true for any game i guess, its a balancing act that raerely works, personally i think if complex games had better tutorials then they would pull in more players.

[jshm2]

You have no life, kid.

Game developers know that the longer a game lasts, the more they can get paid. Hence why gatekeepers like you are laughed at.

[Wade12345]

Um, if "Streaming" had existed 20 years ago like it does now, I'd have been a millionaire because I would be able to prove that, before I had nerve damage from Diabetes, I was the real best Starcraft 1 player in the world for about 3 years running, and I would have been the world champion. I didn't even know they held championships, and took two years off and came back and was like, "Who is this Boxer chump? I'd wreck him if I ever played him 1vs1... I used to beat 3 people better than him simultaneously."

"Gate keepers". they hold competitive tournaments which the same players qualify for and win every season, because noobs and noobs and pros are pros.

As things stand, I "peaked" at video games around two years after I got sick from diabetes and chromotosis, and after that the nerve damage made it very hard for me to beat other pro gamers.

I can still log onto any of these games and make top 100 in the world within a week or two of practice, I just wouldn't be able to beat pro gamers. Well, I could make top 1000 in the world at Starcraft 2, but probably top 100 in the world at Starcraft 1 if I played protoss for a week or two again. Protoss is the most "low apm" friendly race, so with nerve damage I'd need to play Protoss to rank up.

I taught G5 how to beat boxer, and two years later when they eventually played a 1vs1 on world wide television, G5 did exactly what I told him to do, and he laughably embarassed boxer. Boxer never even got his natural expansion established by the time G5 had 4 fully saturated bases and started toying with boxer.

[Wade12345]

Anyway, you are wrong. Regardless of what concessions the companies give to noobs, they only take balance suggestions from current top 100 in the world, because noobs are not intelligent enough nor good enough at the game to decide what is fair and not fair.

The people who used to beat me at Gunz the Duel ONLY played when other top 100 players were online. That's why I quit Unreal engine games: I got too good at them, and it got very, very boring.

Your idiot level noob thinks he can just "point and shoot" in my direction with the machine gun or shotgun and hit me. He doesn't realize he needs to be able to 3-d dodge and actually AIM at the same time to hit me. And once I learned to use all the sword tricks and weapon swap to shotgun properly, I could ltierally tell the noobs at the beginning of a game, "If you do not all ally against me and work together against me, you CANNOT win".

By the time they figured out I was telling the truth, it was always too late for them to out-score me.

Professional gamers call them "Sprayers".

It's idiots who think the machine gun or rocket gun is supposed to win the FPS for them.

[Wade12345]

Believe it or not, it's actually NOT fun to score 50 consecutive kills agianst 8 idiot sprayers.

I WANT to play against a top 10 player and see if I can steal a few kills off him I don't want to be matched against a bunch of idiots who don't understand the fundamentals of the game, much less understanding 'strategy" and "tactics".

[Wade12345]

They've noobified video games so much that the game literally plays itself for the player. They are too stupid to make decisions for the character in a JRPG or a D&D game, so they give the player character an AI that automatically defeats the enemies, otherwise the noobs will complain that "easy is too hard".

I play AD&D games on maximum difficulty and handicap myself to playing with no equipment or playing a "damageless game," otherwise the game isn't challenging enough to be interesting.

[Wade12345]

fact: 90% of players who bought Starcraft 1 never played the game the way it was intended to be played, because they were too stupid or lazy to learn.

Fact: 90% of people who THOUGHT they were good at Starcraft 1 bought Starcraft 2 and found you are FORCED to play on the professional maps, and they found out they sucked dick at strategy games.

Fact: 90% of people who buy Starcraft 2 quit playing it within one month of buying the game, because they figure out they are either too stupid or too lazy to understand how to play the game correctly.

[Wade12345]

HOw DUMB do you think the lower ranked players are at Starcraft when A+ is already top 1%, and I can beat 3 A+ allied against me?

How dumb does a person need to be to buy a strategy game if they already know they are stupid to begin with? And then they expect "interface changes" or "balance changes" to help them beat an expert.

A long time ago, I played Zerg and I want 6 QUEENS as fast as I can unlock their tech tree. Modern pro gamers in Starcraft 1 never train Queens, because they don't understand how to use them properly, and every few years I have to go PROVE to them that they don't know what they're doing, and beat them with a Queen build again... and every time I PROVE TO THEM THAT I AM THE REAL BEST ZERG EVER, they refuse to admit it and try to claim they lost o npurpose, or the company gets mad at me and bans me for being the better player.

If the Terran player knows what he's doing, the Zerg player NEEDS two queens immediately.

If the Terran player knows what he's doing ahe'll assume the Zerg player is getting two queens, and he'll wait until he has 6 tanks to attack the Zerg.

If the Zerg knows what he's doing, he'll scout the Terran a 3rd time and detect a "small tank mass" and make 6 queens instead. Tehn if th eTerran makes a mistake, the Zerg laughably destroys the Terran's entire army in 2 seconds flat.

[Wade12345]

Because I'm a Genius and actually very, very good at strategy and tactics, you call me a "gate keeper".

Do you know world governments are just as GOD DAMNED STUPID as the idiot noob telling a pro gamer what to do or telling the gaming development company what to do?

When is the last time either political party in the United States did anything useful besides bilk money from the common people?

[Wade12345]

When you try teaching an idiot noob how to play like a professional, they get mad at you and even threaten to report you for "harassment" .

[Wade12345]

You know what made NES and SNES games great?

Most of them were not "noobified". MOst of them were unapologetically and intentionally very difficult to master, and if you were too stupid to beat the game you traded it in for another game.

The games companies make in recent years literally play themselves for the player and all the player needs to do is decide to spend their gold or not.

[SignedAutographs]

why do you think you're the craziest MF'er out there?

[MagicCarpet1]

Noobifiying games makes a good business sense because most gamers grew up without fathers and suck at life.
