It can be moved though, by ramming enough ships into it. So it wouldn't last very long.

http://youtu.be/KBxj4NG3ntY Low effort grief on some poor kid in TF2. We planned to leave him alone until he started up with his dumb "I have a right by law to speak." I was mostly busy killing people and laughing in the background to actually do anything.

I've been getting back into Robocraft, which I heard of thanks to this thread. After unlocking a lot of tier 6 parts, I made a tiny little robot that is just a pilot's seat, some helium blocks, rocket boosters pointed straight to the sky and a tier 6 machine gun. Machine guns have a slight zoom and have perfect accuracy on the first shot, letting you pop off low-damage but accurate shots every second or so. The end result squeaked in at tier 3, which is also the tier that railguns first start appearing. Essentially this little robot rockets into the stratosphere and uses the recoil of its gun to steer at insane speed across the map. From there I peck apart the team's robots with that is usually a weak gun at tier 6, but akin to a powerful semiauto sniper in tier 3. You only earn tech points on a kill or assist, but since I'm several tiers higher I don't need or want the points, only the in-game currency that results from winning and dealing damage. The result is pure, white-hot rage as players unlock their first railgun and eagerly join a game to do some snipin'. Then ten seconds into a game their 10-second reload having sniper rifles and means of propulsion are blown off by some tiny mosquito thing with a dinky machine gun. They're left sitting in an immobile shell of a vehicle, forced to either forfeit or sit and hope my teammates overlook them as I zip away at Mach 4 typing 'Allahu Ackbar' into the chat window.

Today we were colluding on an online Mafia site to keep everyone else as frustrated and clueless as possible. A friend was impersonating Tom Metzger, and when one of the nerds figured us out he accused him of "giving Anti-Semites a bad name" through his cheating in a casual online party game

You're lucky you got off that easy, the community is loving toxic and goes apeshit on anyone trolling or cheating.

I told a colleague (back when Mechwarrior online was actually good) that I played online with goons. Before that he'd been pretty friendly. After I said that: "oh I know your little friends. They gently caress up my time I spend playing guild wars 2" and never spoke to me again.

GW2 mechanics are designed to minimize griefing and encourage teamwork, he must be a roleplayer or something. Jackard fucked around with this message at 14:31 on Nov 7, 2014 |

Pretty much the extent of griefing in GW2 is completing events the way they were intended (because ANET was dumb and the events that come after some other events' fail states have more champs/loot than if the initial event had succeeded) It is hilarious how mad that can make people, though

a medical mystery posted:Pretty much the extent of griefing in GW2 is completing events the way they were intended (because ANET was dumb and the events that come after some other events' fail states have more champs/loot than if the initial event had succeeded) This reminds me of a FATE in Final Fantasy XIV: a Realm Reborn called Dark Devices that people would exploit for EXP. FATEs are basically Public Quests; anybody can join in and if you contribute enough to the goal you'll get a whack of XP and money when it was done. Anyway, the Dark Devices one would rapidly spawn these cultists that wouldn't contribute to the goal if you killed them, so groups started ignoring the objective and just stood in on the spawn points spamming area of effect attacks. So of course if anybody did ANYTHING that pushed the progress bar closer to complete these people would lose their loving minds. The funny thing is that more people kept showing up to exploit this, to the point that there was so many people attacking these mobs that barely anybody was able to contribute enough damage to even GET any experience. I'd say a good half of the people would end up wasting their time. i am tim! fucked around with this message at 16:41 on Nov 7, 2014 |

Legit players labeled "griefers" by exploiters.... Reminds me of a video with Darkfall pirates ambushing a group of afk players stacked in a pyramid to exploit skill gains, something called a "rigormid" I can't seem to find the video now, though

Every time I read this thread I realise how bad I am at video games. About a third (or more) of these griefs basically contain "I am able to do this only because I'm very, very good at video games" in a subtext at least.

Honestly that's half the reason I enjoy these stories. They're not outright hacking or just yelling at people, they're more clever.

Jackard posted:Did this get posted here yet For those who don't play GW2, this guy is playing World vs. World mode (WvW). It's a PvP mode on a huge battleground map where three different servers (shards) battle and get points for capturing bases and stuff. There are some NPCs but I think all the enemies in the video are human players. Normally, if you're as outnumbered as this guy is, you will die very quickly. This is especially true if you run into a huge zerg of players like is seen near the end of the video. The solution to this of course is to outfit yourself with a full set of tank/healing gear and movement speed buffs. You will have no ability to do any damage at all, but you can zip around and enrage pubbies with your ability to never, ever die. It might seem like a very low level grief, but it's effective because PvP in GW2 is full of children and man-children who rage over the tiniest little things. I should actually start keeping count of the people who rage about losing in the 5-on-5 psuedo-Dota mode, because I swear it's always the lowest-scoring member of the team.

Sounds like it's an actually effective strategy too because keeping a bunch of people tied up all by yourself like that means they can't deal with actual objectives.
