Retribution Wrote:and yet i have seen countless snipers being called stat whores for only sniping entire rounds, theres always gona be people playing for the highest personal score steping over there team to do so
Not to pick a fight but as i have stated there are players on this server that when they play a specific class it is going to be a long afternoon for the other team. I will use myself as an example on goldrush last night the teams were slightly out of balance and not in my teams favor, so as always i picked up a sniper rifle. Now i consider myself to be an excellent sniper, and when the map started we had 4 snipers including myself, as the map progressed, through attrition 2 snipers changed class, we fought a tough battle and prevented a better team from capping the last point. When the map ended i was number 2 in the scores overall and number 1 on my team (56k-24d), i sniped the entire map only because i felt it was in the best interest of my team to keep sniping. Now am i a stat whore because i felt that it was in the best interest of my team to keep that kind of fire power in play? I do not and no one on my team complained either. In the end as far as i was concerned the only thing that mattered was accomplished, and that was preventing the other team from capping the point, the stats for myself after the map were just a small foot note as far as i was concerned. Just because someone picks a class they are good at, does thier best to complete the mission, and supports the people in front or next to them is not stat whoring, that is just solid play
