I just found out why The Feast queue is dead a few days in!

I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience, but please consider this: Yuck.

Strange I am sure that most amateur athletes would nto say they are treated the same way feast is. A vocal enough group actually does not want new players. They do not want to be qued with them they do not want to see them. I am sure we could link back posts from early season one.

Passion is a strange excuse to use for the way a decent percentage of players act as an excuse. I am sure some very competitive/passionate people would be disgusted by the general treatment of teammates.

The difference is that amateur athletes are going to be on teams with and competing against like-minded individuals. In the feast, you have a melting pot of different people all with different skill levels and motivations for playing the game. I'm not sure of OP's specific situation, but in most situations such as these, the "new" player is generally in the wrong and fails to realize how their: lack of skill, teamwork, and/or ability to listen ruins the experience of the other three people. Did someone call OP "bad" (but perhaps a worse word.) Well guess what, 9/10 times, the accuser is probably right. Maybe instead of whining, it would serve better to be introspective and think: "Was I attacking the right target?", "Was I too aggressive there?", "Did I break my teams CC?", "Did my team ask me to cooperate on a strategy and I either failed to listen or blatantly ignored them?"

Youre right lovelikewinter.

Lets divide the attention to the problem like we do in the feast, half the team go all their way to the spawn point, while the healer and a dps stay back getting beaten like a hobo.

Saltier than the Dead Sea tho for real.

I make no excuses for those who act badly and try to exclude new people, but they need to understand that as small as the PvP community is, the WORST thing you can do is discourage people from wanting to try. At the same time, new people need to understand it IS competitive. It gets ugly. It gets loud. It gets nasty sometimes when it's uncalled for. But while you can't control those factors, those should not make or break someone's determination.

Who dares, wins.
