[Suggestion] Better players for "Hunt...

typhaon's Photo typhaon 07 Aug 2012

Since the suggestion section of this forum is so poorly maintained (I still wait for my last two suggestions to be published or at least a comment on what has happened to them) I simply put it here:

I just had the "pleasure" to be part of the "Hunt us down"-Event. I'm really glad, that WG has quite a lot events allowing players to get some gold as reward... but I think the "Hunt us down"-Event has some major flaw:

The player playing the victim tank is usually just acting like dumb... I don't care if the official is on my own team and I have no chance to get any gold, but I care for the result of the battle. We were lucky, that it was just a scout tank, that rushed in like a first day noob, but I guess they sometimes play better tanks, which are more important for the battle... the other tank from WG for the "Hunt us down"-event that I saw, was of medium tier for the battle, but acted just as stupid, when hiding in a village and simply waiting for someone to kill him.

So I wonder: What is rewarded in this event? Double luck for heaving the victim in the other team and being the one with the skill shot or actually something like skill to take down the tank... right now it's the first... and even more: acting like that makes the WG-employee as much worth as a bot for his team, just a waste of space.


So I suggest:
Dear WG-players: Please make some effort, to make it more difficult for the enemy to take you down and ease the pain of your own team... you develope this game, so you should know enough about how to play it!

Just had a Löwe in my team, I don't think he was especially bad, though that doesn't tell you much these days, but he also wasn't that useful for the team as far as i could see.

Had a gwpanther today. He started yelling that he was playing like a td in a arty, he killed the guy he was aiming at but a m41 got him in a second later, it was quite hilarous to see.

When I play in Hunt us down I usually take a fast scout or medium. If you want the gold you're going to have to earn it, If we're allowed I'll upload some replays of me playing the T-50-2 and taking teams on a merry chase halfway around the map.
Whilst I might die, you can be sure the enemy team is totally out of position and getting pummeled by the rest of my team.

I feel bad if I get Boelter in these events :Smile_trollface-3:

But point taken, level must improve.

I don't think the problem is the skill of the individual players but the fact that everyone and their dog is trying to go for them.

I was in one last night with the WG player in a JgPz E100.  I don't think he killed anything but we won anyway - we were the defending team on Karelia and most of the enemy team turned into suicide scouts and didn't get too far!

Unfortunately I told all of my team we got gold for keeping him alive... which we no longer do :(  So sorry about that team... (but hurray for winning!)

Yes, you did. Ruining my x2!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As I spent all my game next to the tank, getting ready to dive bravely infront of a shell!
