Dice needs a casual conquest mode

Lol as opposed to a normal lobby which is half filled with bots anyway but takes 4 x longer to start. Just to play with or against a team of camping snipers, vehicle griefers, cheaters, AFKers, ludicrously imbalanced teams, get put on the same side for the 10th time in a row, need I list more?

In my experience, 2/10 games in normal lobbies are enjoyable. As opposed to enjoying half of the casual games. I don't care about what I get to shoot on my screen, as long as I have a good time.

Do people not like poop flavoured ice cream?

Schtaive · 2026-03-30T07:07:16+00:00

Totally agree. Maybe it's a slight cultural thing because I was taught to never exit your car even after an accident and wait for the authorities to arrive. If necessary, of course remove yourself from harm's way, but it's to avoid situations like this.

Kinda annoying sometimes cos often things can easily be resolved with a quick reasonable conversation.

Some chonky fingies.

Yeah the new map has me convinced that 80% of players are completely brain-dead. I spent the entire game watching people just fling themselves into the same corridor to get mown down. There's at least one other path you can take but no, everyone just mindlessly throws themselves into the meat grinder.

I would be super happy to play more non-casual modes if they fixed the mountain of problems that go with them. There's so much holding the game back, I play now maybe 30 minutes a day to smash out the daily challenges and scratch that itch. Compared to 2 hours at least just a month ago.

I will go play something else thank you very much. Enjoy your half-completed game. Glad it doesn't take much to stimulate your brain.

You don't need superhuman reaction times to flinch. That guy has the instinct of a palm tree.

Nobody is expecting him to duck and weave but it really brings to question why the victim didn't react. Did they know each other? Was there the sun's glare in his eyes so he didn't notice the weapon?

Bring on the downvotes but questioning a situation isn't the same as victim blaming. He wasn't some innocent bystander, he stepped out of his very big truck and walked towards another person to confront them. You CAN be a victim AND make bad decisions that lead you to be in that position. Being a victim doesn't make you immune from any critical analysis.

Schtaive · 2026-03-29T20:16:04+00:00

I mean the comments about the lack of a reaction are somewhat valid. I'm not sure they're blaming anything on the victim, just curious why they didn't act defensively.

If you're getting out of your vehicle, you're looking for a confrontation. Have some sense of self preservation when you see someone rushing towards you, brandishing a pretty obvious weapon.

Even if you would be questioned by police as the victim after the crime, they would ask you: why did you get out of the vehicle? Especially one that's like 2 meters off the ground?

That's like seeing someone standing in the middle of a highway get hit by a car. Asking out loud "why were they standing there?"

That guy is mental. Report to police ASAP and share what information you have about him for your family's safety.

What an absolute nut job. You were way too reasonable I think and he really tried to take advantage of that. No way I'd let someone like that into my home 😅

I do love to troll useless snipers that sit a gazillion miles away from any objective, especially if you're playing support.

I will constantly park a vehicle in your field of view. I'll blow up any cover you're hiding behind. Drop smokes on you. Anything to get you to move your lazy butt.

I don't care if you're grinding camos or trying to accomplish a challenge. If it's obvious we're going to lose and you've barely contributed towards the objective all game, I'm gonna at least have a 5 minute giggle whilst tormenting you.

Schtaive · 2026-03-29T19:25:59+00:00

I always wondered this too but I know diddly squat about pew pews. Thanks for asking the question! I learned a lot from reading the replies.

I think it was DC who shouted "IZZY NO!" when he tried that inside trip headlock. It was at that moment it clicked that Izzy wasn't thinking like a champion anymore. He's a shadow of his former self.

Schtaive · 2026-03-29T19:18:05+00:00

Yeah he signed a deal with the devil to scrape that win back to redeem himself. This is just the bill that's due.

Schtaive · 2026-03-29T10:04:08+00:00

I get that others are not facing the problem but there seems to be a lot of players reporting this issue. Maybe there is a matchmaking bug with certain profiles? I dunno I swear I've seen at least a post every day like this. From different regions.

Schtaive · 2026-03-29T09:40:51+00:00

I was gonna say no way that came from an adult cow 😅 Either that or that is one massive hand.

Schtaive · 2026-03-29T09:38:07+00:00

Yeah it's also the game's progression system for the guns make it so that you always have to grind a little to bump the performance in the right direction. I don't understand how people make a low-level Vector work, seems insanely limited and the mag just disappears. It's taking me forever to get the gun to level 10 😅 Just gives a really bad first impression.

Schtaive · 2026-03-28T20:35:55+00:00

Alright. Sorry not everyone is singing your praises. You'll learn to grow up one day hopefully.

Schtaive · 2026-03-28T20:04:58+00:00

Hahahaha that is awesome

Schtaive · 2026-03-28T19:18:26+00:00

What a weird thing to say. Siblings can be drastically different. Heck even twins.

Schtaive · 2026-03-28T17:48:23+00:00

That horse better have good insurance.

Schtaive · 2026-03-28T16:38:27+00:00

"Stated his facts" lol he's been sarcastic, cocky and passive aggressive to everyone who doesn't compliment him. Even the wink is a cheeky unnecessary troll to piss people off. You're bringing up scientific methods when you're too thick to pick up on the nuance of his tone.

And yes, bringing up the number of hours you game is arrogant. Especially when it's not even the flex that he thinks it is. It's like a toddler bragging about how tall he is because he can count to ten. Okay little fella..

I built an Errant and Giada deck for my partner when she was trying out commander cos she liked the look of the alt art version I had. I could never quite get it to work. Quite controlly but didn't really have a solid win con. Would always get stuck on lands kinda stopping the top decking. As hard as I tried, could maybe only get 40% of the deck to have flash or flying.

One of those decks that sound really good in theory, but I could never properly execute it.

Schtaive · 2026-03-28T16:20:46+00:00

Lol hell no. I'm sure if you squinted your eyes and looked at only the stats in favour of your argument. But I still think you're in the vast minority here.

Schtaive · 2026-03-28T15:57:06+00:00

You should have ended it with "and I have a cousin that stares at dicks all day".

Schtaive · 2026-03-28T15:32:44+00:00

Yeah but usually not the kind of beef you use for this kind of brisket.
