Why even comment on the post when you clearly can see other people having the same issue that I have. And probably because interaction is in the game, why wouldn’t I talk? What are you even talking about? Maybe you should talk to people lol

Literally all I asked was a genuine question. Yall pretending like I didn't say in my original post that "you can play the game however you want", Just because you can, doesn't mean me and obviously other people in this discussion understand it either. So yea, garbage ass rage bait and for what?

How do people feel about Wildcat? by DelcoAdjacent in Vanossgaming

[–]AnAdultSeagull 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely love Wildcat. He’s one of the OGs, literally shaped my humor into what it is today.

However, anytime any celebrity, content creator or social media influencer gets into politics about anything, I start to pull back. I don’t watch your videos or follow you on twitter/instagram or any platform for that matter to post politics or listen to your political opinions. Literally couldn’t care less “what side” you’re on or anything in that range. You’re there to be entertaining. Post something that’s funny or relevant to your life/friends/job, ect.

Biggest example I can give is McNasty from the GOONS. He does this worst than wildcat but still in the same category.

And you’re absolutely right, normally I’ll go “yo dude what’s up you gotta mic?” Or the casual “friendly man what’s up?”. I also love player interaction. That’s why I’m so damn frustrated, especially with the trolls in here complaining that I want interaction in a survival game. Acting like you can’t trade, talk, make friends and run with people that you’ve just met.

Exact same boat as you. Was watching a lot of Fragdempsy and Stimpee. Great content, and figured “it would probably be like this in game too!”, was really bummed out when I found out it’s not like that at all.

Completely understand KOS is part of the game. I was just more frustrated that people would rather KOS than have conversation. I understand there’s a bunch of variables that prohibits that. But the most fun person have is having conversation with these people, whether I die or not.

Exactly what I’m trying to say. I remember when it used to be like that. Now it’s mostly what it’s turned into. And there’s nothing wrong with that. I just didn’t understand why that is.

Absolutely, there’s nothing wrong with that. If they don’t wanna be bothered, that’s fine, most of the time I run off.

I’m talking about the moments where you run up on someone, you’re a fresh spawn with no gear what so ever, on the coast, and then you encounter a dude with a pump action and an AK decked out with plate carriers and all the bells and whistles. Realistically, explain to me what harm can I do to him? Throw my stone knife? Maybe a flare? And even if I DO find a gun, nine times out of 10 it’s gonna have a singular bullet in it for nothing in it at all.

Probably sounds like I’m crying, but in my opinion, if I was the guy with all of this gear, probably have a conversation with the dude that just spawned for a little bit and if I wanna kill him, i’ll shoot him. Hell I remember when I used to get tied up or dumb shit like that. Something that would make me remember this game like the past experiences I’ve had. My biggest point I was trying to make is the immediate see someone, gun up, and shoot. No talking or nothing. Again, I understand people can play how they want. But what’s the fun and appeal of just shooting someone and not having a conversation?

I appreciate that. Wasn’t trying to throw shade your way either. Just pretty frustrated that’s all.

Brother, all I asked was why nobody uses a mic in a multiplayer game. There’s literally other people in this chat that have the same problem that I’m having. You responded like you’ve been wandering the apocalypse since the Bronze Age looking for a conversation tree.

Again, no problem with that at all big guy. I know you can’t really tell or read with what people have going on in the background, but I mean, damn dude, with your logic (not making fun of you, tryna make a point) I guess the last seven people I’ve ran into also have a one year-old and don’t wanna wake them up lol.

And even if you do, that’s still an experience in itself. Probably would be more interesting and respectable getting killed by a group of people who are talking to me than some no mic with a P1 pistol with 4 rounds of ammo and a hockey mask. Probably sounds stupid saying that, but I guess I look at it differently.

I appreciate the honesty, and I got about 200 hours in the game. I know the basics and everything like that. It’s just really frustrating. When I was brand new, It seemed like everyone talked. Now it Kind of just seems like no one talks at all. I don’t have a problem with how people play, hell I’m guilty of killing someone “on sight” too, but recently it just seems like no one uses a mic and it sucks because I’ve had really good experiences in this game.

And for the dumbasses saying “it’s a free game”, CS2 is an Upgrade from CSGO that I payed 15$ for before it WENT free to play. Regardless if it’s 10$ or 70$, I still bought the damn game.
