To all the flames on primal datacenter...

Does that kind of game play lead to embarrassing losses? Unquestionably.
But it's fun and on the rounds where the eso grinders are in the majority, you have to find your smiles one way or another.

It's fine to feel this way, but keep in mind most people still want to win and complete objectives.

I no longer need wins in PvP to get anything special out of it (I already have my horse, ADS, title, field commander set, etc), but that still doesn't mean most games I want to throw a match just because the Adders are being stupid again and charging at us while Mael tap-dances away with three nodes. I enjoy crushing the Badders and the Failstromers, but not so much that I'd want to throw a match for it. They aren't worth it.

Meh, I kind of like it better this way... You have to find your smiles one way or another.

I agree with you, and, honestly, sometimes it's exhausting to try and steer the mindless masses away from their own stupidity, so I've forced myself to step back sometimes and just roll with it... but...

It's fine to feel this way, but keep in mind most people still want to win and complete objectives.

I completely understand this mentality as well. I like winning. I want to win. Also, I find that the most enjoyable matches I've ever had are ones in which there was a heated competition for first... That doesn't happen when two teams power focus one another and ignore GC 3, letting them do whatever they want. Further, some of the fights are less enjoyable because they inevitably turn into a 2v1 gang bang. I can't count how many times I've gotten into a fight with Mael, a good, honest, fight only to have the Adders sweep in the middle of it and just get in the way. It's like getting blue balled. The fight's not as satisfying because you never felt like you got to finish it....

I like it as a game mode, and 3 way fights make for a dynamic and interesting battle field, but I really wish we had a 2 way game mode option to work with, because there are days that I just want to get into a straight up brawl and not have to look over my shoulder for Adders/Mael coming to the rescue of whoever I'm trouncing.
