I admit that I'm not a writer but this article wasn't a fun read. It felt like if I was in one of my History classes or one of those English essays. A few corny jokes and less formality would have been great.

Other than that it was a great article. I agree that if people don't see self profit they make it their goal to make sure others don't get.

sometimes a team with less people is actually the winning side. i was quite amused when i saw a 2:0 ctf with the winning team 2 players short.

You use flawed logic, and it does not seem that there is in your mind any room for any doubt that you are telling the absolute truth of life.

 

In real war, there is a reason and a reward for fighting to death or the end. In Tanki, the only reward is crystals (and experience points).

 

Imagine a real life situation, where you are a mercenary fighting for someone who does not mean anything to you, and you are going to lose and/or lose your life. Can you tell me the point of going on? I am sure somebody like you, knows the thing about cutting your losses. You even said it yourself when describing your mission: fighting until it is prohibitive for the enemy to continue. Guess what? Your enemy has the same goal. If you continue to fight when it is prohibitive to continue, it is actually incredibly stupid, not admirable or anything. You would only be piling losses over losses. You should not give up when there is a possibility of winning. When there is none, can you tell me what is the point of fighting say in real war when you do not have enough ammo or almost all your soldiers are dead? Killing the rest of your soldiers? Is that a real goal in wars?

 

It is very simple. Tanki rewards me for winning. If I know I am not going to win, I am not playing. If Tanki wants me to play in that condition, it needs to reward me for that. This is real logic, not baseless subjective opinion that contradicts your own experience.

 

Nice try though.

Eloquent reply, but this is not real life.  In tanki, i see more ppl who respect that badass who goes down fighting than those who respect the dumbass who runs from a fight.  I would personally rather be bad than dumb, but i guess thats ur choice to make.  U do make a valid point,  but I dont agree with it.  I'm here to have fun, and i enjoy a challenge, not an easy game against a rapidly deteriorating team.  I actually will leave the winning team to join the losing one in these situations, even though it has cost me a few crystals here and there.  It gives hope, and thats what i would prefer to do.
