This game just isn’t what it was even when I started playing.
PVE is just boring now, coop has op bots with 0 skill and pvp has too many people that don’t seem to know how to play.
When I bring my destroyer then I only get in with a few players most the time. When I don’t slot a destroyer I still end up going up against a few destroyers that over power the entire match.
Team play is pretty much null most the time. The people that don’t seem to know how to play hide with the lrf. Man I could go on and on but this post isn’t to complain but to say, you need to do something about this. I have little interest to even play anymore and this was my absolute favorite game that I played everyday for at least 5 hours a day and sometimes all day long but its just not worth it anymore. ikd maybe I played too much and burned out… Man I cant be the only one that sees it like that…
Every now and then i get such weird teams like barely over 5 eff points at the end of the match with endgame content. Like someone left his account for toddlers to play. Extremely weird and bad play which cant be fixed with conventional means and i doubt it ever will get fixed, it’s not something devs can remove or similar. The skilled players i know by name so i just watch out for them, everyone else is just cannon fodder, thats how big the difference is to me.

The game has changed, for sure, but it’s not only that. Probably your perception of the game has changed too. You are more aware of what you need to win. Maybe you were happy before just killing all the ships who dare to get near your crosshairs. I can be wrong, my personal opinion.
I recommend you seting new goals in the game. Also more squad playing ← It never is boring. And try SCL if you aren’t done yet. The beauty of SCL is there aren’t random players in your team.
Today I’ve kept winning games,good old unskilled Sk’Rah gameplay,but I also happened to lose 2 games in a row,they were both the same gamemode and both were a marginal loss,didn’t guess yet?
Well,they were survival,unsurprisingly,I also happened to die a bunch of times,that’s what happens when you take a Kite there,a bunch of Gargoyles spamming the Bosson from far away,of course not hitting,the real threats were the Flux Phasers,one hit,shield down,another hit,dead,If you don’t happen to have the adaptive ready and a whole bunch of luck then you are done for,and now you might ask(for sure)why didn’t you use the WNJ on them?Well they were still at over 5km away from me,so that wouldn’t really help too much,sigh,just remove that gamemode already!We suffered enough!

At least in survival destroyers are easy kill.

I know what you mean good sir.
@ Confliction. (I might get flack for this but). . I found it much more enjoyable to focous on two things instead of just winning. Because after a while unless squaded carrying your team becomes impossible. . . and where it is worse is survival, regardless if you get 14 kills a match your team will still lose by a landslide. What I started doing was must get min 7 kills per match and win. This makes me less likely to capture that 3rd beacon on beacon capture to prolong the game for more kills. Or less likely to rush the captain to prolong the game. It sounds like kill farming but many many times the opposing team can have great comebacks and leads to closer funner games. Also keeps you being very aggressive in the game.
I’m a tactical team player and my aim is horse kaka so maybe SC isn’t really for me. BUT, I practice to be better nonetheless. What I AM doing however is taking a break and playing other games, not quitting SC just break  and not play it so much. I played WAY too much and the incentive is pretty much gone now. I’m not really interested in the new alien crystals gunship majiger and the vigilant’s new car smell is gone now not to mention that MM, when I use vigilant, usually only puts me in 3 vs 3 matches. So the only thing left to do at this point for me is to work on my weaknesses.
Or you could use a different ship. Try flying a cov ops and solo a vigilant its got to be easy. . . those cov ops are maneuverable.
Yeah that’s pretty much, without specifics, what I meant. I am working on all classes but aiming is priority right now. I installed rf with heatsink and oc cpu on my ceptors and it helped but I REALLY need to keep at it.

If its hard for you to aim with turrets on every ship then imagine how it is when you fly in other games such as WT or BF1,you have to face your enemy with the whole craft in order to land a hit,sometimes even face upper cause the weapons have a drop,you know,gravity,what am I trying to say is that you can train even in other games too,for me it kind of helped.
Well, I’ll let you in on a little embarrassment (not secret as I have implied it in past posts). I use Xbox 360 controller to play ALL games even ones that don’t support it I will either code it in a program I made or use Xpadder. I don’t have a good setup for m/k and I like to play casually but the word casual does not really fit in SC, at least in PVP if you are wanting to be one of the pro’s.
Don’t get me wrong, I am not that bad and I think most of you know that but probably have seen I don’t get that many kills in classes that aren’t destroyer. And yes I was playing Crysis 2, I know, old game lol, and it was like I was retar-ded or something. I think SC has dum0bed me down for playing other games. I used to kill it in Crysis and I was having a lot of trouble.
Cov ops with a xbox controler. . . going ~600ms with bad ping. How is that possible.
Yeah its really not hence my frustration. Try it sometime and you may have a new view on those that do use one and still keep up with the best. I only just started playing this game about 9 months ago and have some pretty stats which are better than even a lot of the vets that play. I was up to 8900 pr last week but last few days I was training myself in other classes and it dropped significantly and ik pr really doesn’t say much unless you know that person only does one tier in pvp which I ONLY do t5 and sometimes t4. So considering my circumstances I do well but not good enough to be AdamWest or his like

It’s not and such “behave”, should not be promoted. Mouse + keybord is the way… Always ”) unless you have some phisical issues, in that case it’s ok.
Btw any 600m\s fits for ceptors is just an ez kill, don’'t even try to promote that!

Actually I used to play with a graphic tablet for super hyper extra awesome precision. But it doesn’t work anymore.
That was absolutely broken with lasers.
But I may one day do something to fix this with a little program
