It's amazing, on a game that requires a good amount of awareness, a lot of people seem to lack it. Nothing pisses me off more when my team loses a round or an important flag because they're too stupid to realise whats happening around them.
Examples:
1.
You throw a grenade, only for your squad mate or team mate to go running gungho straight into your nade -4 for you. Now if only he'd paid attention to the "FRAG OUT" and the animation of you throwing it, maybe he wouldnt be lying there dead yelling medic. Now, anyone with any common sense knows that a grenade next to you is not good. I know when one lands next to me, I'm trying to get the fuck out of there.
Tip for the noobs: Grenades are not powerups.
Awareness.
2.
You're flying 40 and 0 in a jet and go to rearm only to find you have a chopper flying directly over the runway, full of your teammates. Since you're not expecting this, you try your best to move out the way, you see the chopper pass and you think you missed it, but no. What's this? Oh noes. You're now 40-1 thanks to the awareness lacking chopper pilot.
Tip for the noobs: Runways are not meant for choppers! Go around!
3.
You're rolling around Karkand in armour advancing from one flag to another only for a whole squad to suddenly appear in your view, not expecting this (who honestly plays chicken with a tank and wins) you don't have time to stop and suddenly you flatten them all, resulting in all punishes and a kickban from the server.
If only they'd have the common sense to pay attention to whats going on around them.
Tip for the noobs: As infantry, you're far inferior to a tank. Get out of its way.
4.
You're on Wake, oh god. The amount of retards I've played with on wake is unbelievable.
1.A full black hawk flies right down the middle because nobody spots it, caps the airfield and and then 4-5 players are sitll waiting for jets and choppers.
2. The rest of the players who didn't get in any air vehicles go and camp on either end of the island, allowing one small boat full of charlie caps a flag that isnt the airfield, yet the chinese are still camping at either end.
3. A single USMC guy makes it to the airfield, now this guys smart. He made a squad, but wait, why is nobody joining and spawning on him? The airfield is the most important flag for the chinese, without it they have no air support and 31 other players are still spawning on the carrier, getting artied and bombed to hell by the J10.
JOIN THE SQUAD AND SPAWN ON THE PLAYER AT THE AIRFIELD.
Tip for the noobs: If you see a full black hawk coming towards the island, dont shoot at it with your gun, SPOT THE THING so the jets/chopper and take it out. Take charge of the situation. It only takes common sense to win on Wake and that goes for both teams.
What really annoys me is how, thanks to someone else's stupidity and lack of awareness you've lost points. Now, like most people, you set out to get the most points, win the shiny pixel medal at the end and think to yourself, "yeah, thats me right there at the top". But if you're playing with a bunch of morons who run around like headless chickens, you're not going to get up there if you have this happening to you.
This wasn't meant to be such a lengthy post but I felt the need to get my message across because all of the above have happened to me and I'd like people to actually pay more attention and have a wider view of things instead of just 5 ft infront of them.
