Archer class whoring!

You guys are correct, but there is also the problem of infantry players who refuse to shield. Oftentimes I have to repeatedly ask others to shield, me being the only one shielding, and people still don't shield even when our line is broken leading to the whole team wiping. What I'm saying is, a greedy player is a greedy player regardless of what class he or she is playing. Perhaps players just haven't seen the extreme increases in reward from higher waves, or perhaps they just can't comprehend that all of the experience they gained from wave one can be gained by killing one bot on wave 12. Whatever the reason, this shortsightedness is especially rampant in normal mode. Somehow players manage to be incompetent at shielding as well, which is very frustrating as all you have to do is hold down right click and press t, y, or u. After that you can tab out and do whatever for a while. It's not that hard. Shield until the team wipes, then switch with an attacker. You can then both benefit. It is all too often that you find the incompetent clambering for the best spot for attacking, failing to listen to orders, failing to repeatedly spam overhead swings, standing behind others who are doing overheads, standing in front of archers firing -- this kind of thing is truly mind boggling. I have hoped that these kinds of situations would be remedied by playing with a House, but even then there are those who seem incapable of following basic instructions. I have figured out the true meaning of your post, Zetus. It is not cowardly archers that you hate, it is people and their nature. It is not the sly and cunning who hold us back, it is the stupid and ridiculous. Those with cunning would happily work as a team, because you can only get far if everybody survives.

Forgive me if this post is incoherent. This post is incoherent.

I fully agree. Not only am I on a large amount of rounds the only shielder, but I also tend to be the only medic. People just refuse to play with teamwork as long as they can go lolspam (even if it doesn't bring them any kills). The thing with archers who only use barricades to elevate themselves has also mindboggled me. Not always though, sometimes I get to play the mod for more than 15 minutes of frustration when there is a decent team available.
