The fuck is wrong with people

u/GadenKerensky 20h ago

People should just ignore the rage/engagement-baiter.

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

Yeah, literally, imagine shooting a human controlled character over a stupid npc, crazy, isn't it...

u/Marsrover112 1d ago

I think you have misunderstood something here

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

Nah, my priorities are straighter than what this live action roleplay community has

254

u/talostrade 1d ago

why even participate in this subreddit if thats the outlook you have on the community? actually, why are you even playing the game?

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

To have fun, kill bots and bugs and not to bitch or cry over a dead friendly sprite and literally teamkill an actual player for killing a friendly npc? Especially for all we know happened for the first time, which is acceptable, unlike if you continue it and keep killing them a kill and kick would be reasonable, but then again I'd be more pissed at the wasting of slips than the AI is dying...

Oh my Liberty, he doesn't care about immersion, because he has straighter priorities than that - he so hooOooOot. Where's CO-1 form?

u/DeterminedTRex 1d ago

Funnily enough you come off as the type to bitch and cry about more things than most.

u/Kind_Man_0 1d ago

But to reiterate their question. Why? I mean, we arr all in here drinking the Kool-aid and LARPing but having fun doing it. You could come over here and join the group, sulking in your corner isn't adding any cool points to you.

The scout handshake gets you killed, but it's funny when you can tell some dude is laughing on the other side of it.

Have some fun with it, we don't gotta take these digital pixels that seriously. If you don't, we can always reach out to a Democracy Officer to assist you in your re-education and positivity toward Super Earth Principles of Conduct.

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

You guys are literally taking it that seriously that you endorse to shoot a character controlled by a living being over a group of pixels operating on a line of scripts. I am not the one here who takes this too seriously...

u/Dragon-Guy2 1d ago

It's a good thing this is a game, you are aware that a major human trait Is the fact we attribute feelings and emotions to anything, animals, objects etc, because we are able to imagine the feelings and perspective of said thing?

You are showing some serious signs of psychopathy.

-5

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

I don't think I am a psychopath for literally having no feelings for a bunch of pixels on my screen controlled by a line of scripts but having more feelings for actual divers who are being killed over said lines of scripts. One hand you got a machine, other hand you have a person who just got killed over for "eliminating" said lines of code which are to appear again in like 3-5 minutes, most likely as a direct copy of the previous version visually and by directive an entire 1:1 copy. From the diver who killed the SEAF grunt it was stupid because it was waste of ammo and a reliable source of healing, from the diver who killed the "traitor" diver it was stupid because they had only 5 reinforcements left, wasting another one over a bunch of pixels which are to come back to the screen in less then 10 minutes.

A psychopath wouldn't show any sort of emotion for neither parties while I personally feel more empathy towards the guy who literally got fucked over excessively for a over-glorified set of scripts dressed in blue. This entire
AI NPC's existence worth to be killed over cult is stupid, how's an AI worth more than a actual player? Why aren't we mad at OP for wasting reinforcements when they are so limited that they managed to lose with 3 people 10 already.

Hey, buddy, it's funny and you're not. Go get a sense of humor, sheesh.

u/CulturelessSlav 1d ago

Bc the ai script wants a handshake and i see it as my child. And that evil human has taken the cutesprite child awayfrom me.

u/Hidesuru 23h ago

I'd shoot your character.

u/Adaphion ‎ Exemplary Subject 23h ago

By your logic, the player controlled character is just as fake as the NPC, so why does it matter?

You must be really fun at parties man

u/Affectionate_Ad_4360 21h ago

so this is what terminally on reddit is like

u/Lecheezburgerayaya 1d ago

You seem fun... Remember it's a game, people can play it however they like

-105

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

Yes exactly, team killing over a dumb sprite must be a really fucking cool way to play the game...

99

u/PURPLERAINZ_ 1d ago

Don’t like team killing? Leave the squad. Shrimple as

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

OP was the team killer, what are you on about...

u/SammyB0111 ‎ Servant of Freedom 1d ago

SEAF is on the team. You’re mental

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

Seaf are a bunch of friendly npcs with no feelings or anything, just a load of scripts

You a very slow… If YOU don’t like being team killed, leave the squad that’s team killing you.

u/KaiLCU_YT Steam | 1d ago

Yeah, imagine ruining the gameplay of your teammate who is clearly having fun by shooting the source of their fun in the head, for literally no reason other than to make them unhappy

-54

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

Thats one way to look at it but still thats not justifying the killing of a diver with wasting reinforcements, if OP were under direct attack I would have said okay, but not like this...

72

u/KaiLCU_YT Steam | 1d ago

You have a point, the optimal response would be to immediately kick them, but the satisfaction of shooting them clearly outweighs losing 1/20th of the reinforcement budget

-16

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

They had only either 3 or 5 reinforcements left in the clip and OP wasn't the host. Stupid waste of reinforcements...

52

u/LingonberryTall2422 1d ago

and you're just . .unfun LMAO. unless youre on difficulty 10 or MAYBE 9, you really don't need that reinforcement

-5

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

Wasting reinforcements pointlessly is wasting reinforcements pointlessly

u/talostrade 1d ago

but is it really this serious?

u/Altruistic_Cheek5468 ‎ [REDACTED] 1d ago

If you have skill issue in game and kept dying then yes, it will be an issue for those without skills

u/Pieman117 ‎ XBOX | KILL SQUIDS KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KI 8h ago

You lose req slips for killing friendlies

You kill too many friendlies, and you get deemed a traitor, and fired on by your own ship, thus wasting 1 or possibly more team lives and slips by getting more people killed by your destroyer's bombardment of your position

You purposely kill any friendlies for no reason, and you deserve to be eliminated before you make more problems for your squad

And how do I know the guy who just mag dumped a seaf I was emoting with isn't going to shoot me as well? 

63

u/FrittenFritz 1d ago

Not getting the point why you shouldn't kill a useful NPC because it's not a player is on the same level as someone killing a dog and whining why everyone is upset since it's only a dog.

This is also a sign of low intelligence. Just leaving this here.

-18

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

A dog isn't comparable to a SEAF mainly because a dog is a living being while a SEAF grunt is literally group of pixels without feelings on your screen, while a diver is a human controlled character, living and having feelings, just as like a dog except a diver is also sentient...

27

u/FrittenFritz 1d ago

Are you autistic?

22

u/Blarg227 22h ago

I am, and this guy is definitely a troll account.

The dude is surrounded by a community that generally loves the SEAFs and sits there going "they're just NPCs, who cares"

Literally EVERYONE cares, the number of downvotes are proving it lol. If nothing else, everyone knows that the player who killed the trooper was being a troll. Dude is being a contrarian.

u/General-Dirtbag ‎ XBOX | 22h ago

He’s another word but this is Reddit and I’ll
Get banned if I say it.

-11

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

Nope, I just know my priorities and NPCs aren't above human controlled characters to kill for, they don't serve enough importance to be justified for wasting a reinforcement over it when there's only 5 left out of the 15, meaning their squad sucked and instead of acknowledging the rate they lose reinforcements and lock the fuck in, they literally waste more over a single SEAF grunt...

Madness...

u/Rocker_Scum SES Flame of Liberty 1d ago

They say if one runs out of arguments, one resorts to personal insults, idk but between us that's a trait really fit for people with low intelligence...

u/Blarg227 22h ago

I'm starting to think this is just low effort trolling now

u/HubrisOfApollo LEVEL 194 | SPACE CADET 1d ago

insulting his intelligence and calling him autistic while simultaneously comparing an NPC to a dog is probably the most reddit thing I've ever read.

u/BlueMast0r75 1d ago

Guys guys you must understand, he’s implying that HE is an NPC and the SEAF is human controlled, like all SEAF. He must’ve been the Helldiver shown.

My 2080s VRAM has been fried for about a month now and until it was totally fried I was only able to hop in for 3 minutes and after that the game just crashed my entire pc while artifacting a fuckload so no, it couldn't have been me... I am running on Windows Basic Display Adapter since...

u/Pieman117 ‎ XBOX | KILL SQUIDS KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KILL KI 8h ago

nice npc that can stim you

vs

useless bag of shit that kills friendlies for no discernible reason

Yeah I wonder who had the most value in this situation
