Re: Beginners FML FFA Guide
yes this is the hardest game mode. just because its less popular and has less skilled players, doesn't change the difficulty of the game mode. you guys are confusing gametype with competition as a GAMETYPE, ffa is more difficult if the SAME players played FFA and SOLO - their win % in FFA would be lower. You're talking about the level of competition of solo vs ffa. Obviously solo is far more popular and the level of competition and skill is far higher. If you filled FML with happy, lawliet, foggy, grubby, all those guys - or if you filled it with a bunch of noobs, it doesn't change the nature of the gametype. As a gametype, FFA is a more difficult game. Maybe if it were more simple, it would be more popular. Also if FML is so easy i'm surprised you still dodge ;) March 02, 2018, 04:44:47 am |

Re: Beginners FML FFA Guide
wow i didnt read cumulos post when i realized his attempt at simplification was an 11 paragraph essay. also when he took diplomacy out of 'set of skills' i assumed it was gonna be a biased argument. So im gonna skip that and go right to: @Dovekie - i admit i see your point about always having a chance to win in FFA, while in other gametypes you may have 0% chance to win if your opponent is better. That's a good point. Solo is a binary gametype. AT/RT are more variable. And FFA has quite a bit of chaos. Just like you say ffa is less difficult because you always have a chance to win, I also believe that FFA is MORE difficult because no matter how good you are, you can always lose. Solo is like a track race, FFA is much more like War. (Craft.) Its more difficult to 'master' the FFA gametype. But I see your point about the other end of the spectrum, so I'm happy to say that FFA is a more 'complex' gametype than solo. Since you can always win, but no matter how good you are, you can also always lose. Its much more difficult to have a high win % in FFA, but also easier to get a win when you are less skilled. In the end thats why i prefer FFA to solo. While solo is just a nuclear arms race with one weapon: micro FFA is a complex gametype with so many different ways and strategies that can help you win, so many outcomes, and thus it provides a richer experience that has kept me coming back for over 10 years.
