Why I cringe when I see "Shores of Time" during Control
Because I know that someone on my team will go take Zone A and flip our spawn. EVERY -blam!-ING TIME. Even when we control both B and C, they will go take A.
And if the enemy starts taking C, causing the spawn to flip, the randoms won't do the smart thing and go fight to take it back. Hell no. Too much work. They'll go over to the unoccupied and undefended Zone A and proudly take it. Sometimes they'll dance, the morons. It never occurs to them that there's a REASON it's undefended: the other team is BEGGING YOU to go take it.
WILL YOU FOR THE LOVE OF CRAP STOP DOING THIS.
A Control match on Shores of Time, between 2 teams that both know what they're doing, will revolve around taking zones B and C. The only time ANYONE will take A is when Bravo takes it as their first zone. After that, there is NO reason whatsoever to ever see any announcement regarding Zone A. NONE. WHATSOEVER. I don't care if you lost all your zones; go take B or C. DON'T take A. It just makes things worse.

Edited by Brockie: 7/26/2016 2:01:22 PMYou know it is actually feasible to win with A and B on that level. Yes I know. The internet. Indeed. The Internet does say that is impossible. That always reliable source of information for everyone. I have seen vastly more games thrown away by players mindlessly hurling themselves into a meat grinder desperately trying to get C, than I have actual losses caused by holding A and failing to get B. Yes, holding C does give [i]some[/i] advantage. However in PuG's that advantage is not as big as the internet would have you believe, and absolutely not worth conceding thirty kills to obtain. Play smart, cap C if the opportunity arises. Don't lose trying to follow the strategy the internet says.
