i might have to try that.....
Thats what happens. Whenever you are about to win, the team says "Hey! We're winning. Why sohuld i listen to a loser like my comm?" and they run away.
Also, i beleive that hopeless games are the most fun. Mainly because the winning team gets lazy, and then poeple like me, true masters of t3h 4r7 of 1337 n1nj4, can casue MASSIVE problems. IE: phase gates at hive, hidden sensories in ms, mysterious disappearing res towers, etc. And then theres the human factor. In a game where the marines are winning, sometimes a nebulous entity known as the "Alium Cornmando" appears. This mythical creature is the aliens messiah, and leads them to the holy land of victory. Then, if Aliens are winning, the same thing happens to hte marines, except they get the Mythic "Front Line Leader". The marine in question is the one who is ALWAYS where the commander wants, and the teams respects and trusts said marine.
Hence, i like joining the losing team. Its not like my lack of skill would hurt it if its losing already, right?
WARNING: BY NO MEANS DOES THIS HAPPEN EVERY GAME. IF IT DID EVERY GAME QOULD LAST FOREVER AND NOBODY WOULD HAVE FUN. I HAVE SEEN THIS HAPPEN ONLY SEVERAL TIMES (no more than 5) OVER THE COURSE OF A YEAR AND A HALF OF NS.
