just like fortnite seeing more and more elite players abusing default skin to look like a new player and or avoid getting targeted...very scummy tactic. Played against 6 of 8 default corns and impossible to track who you're doing damage to.
@Iron_Guard8 We co-mingled with the PC crowd in UT3 (some 10 years ago) and the console crowd was 10x more toxic then; I can only imagine this has perpetuated further? 🤷🏼♂️
@spIash_damage that could well be. The PC shooter community isn't some bastion of fair play and sunshine, but it seems a bit better, at least from what I've seen. Also, if the console community is larger, that means that even if the % of nastiness is the same, you'll see more of it on console as you have a larger population, so you'll see more people being nasty unfortunately.
I just want to play, do well, and have the most enjoyable (i.e. closest) games possible, and to wear silly hats while doing it. I have R6 Siege when I'm in a more serious shooter mood!
I welcome targeting, if you want to target me have at it but when elite players going 20 kill streak because they can run and mix with a sea of defaults it's scummy. like using default corn with legendary upgrade.
ba is 4 on 4, team vanquish is 8 on 8...try figuring out who you were shooting at with 6 defaults.
My feeling is if you use default you should have a big number 1 through 8 stamped on your face.
And to clarify there are two different targeting contexts here...the hey it's splash damage let's all gang up...and hey I shot that corn for 90% health now which one was he. I'm referring to the latter although I would never change my skin to avoid targeting either...come get some.

@spIash_damageAre you suggesting all of us emoters are noobs? :D
Just kidding, but in all seriousness just because you emote doesn't make you a noob.
Most people who emote in BA don’t realize it shows the other team their name (at the pregame screen). In that regard, most people who emote prematch in BA are BA noobs, no? 🤷🏼♂️😂
@Gormey I don’t exactly run from a good time (targeters). I’ve played against every person in this forum I know of on PS4 and that’s just not my style; I don’t think you’ll find a more aggressive playstyle than my own on console/using a factory controller.
Still, when 3-4 good guns team up against you in the Funderdome, it’s a bit different than TV or TT (all due respect, you eluded to the same fact).
EDIT: I haven’t played against @GutmanSca but need to exchange PSN ID’s and I’d be happy to join him on a European server. 😊👍

Thanks for clarifying as I thought you meant the former. Anyways the latter seems kind of scummy if its intentional, but when I think about it more, I don't think it matters to me. If I can't kill someone fast enough before he uses a tactic to run away and blend in with other acorns, then so be it. I remember this happened to me once or twice (I'm rank 1100) and I kind of just laughed and thought to myself "you f*cker" then went about my day. So for me, it's not scummy.

@spIash_damageYou use KBM on ps4?
LoL! No. @dwooten77 thinks he’s funny and said that here before. I use a DualShock 4 but that might change to a custom controller soon. If I do find a controller I like, I’ll write up my experience to help others.
I was just letting him know he can get a converter to use KBM and join us.
EDIT: maybe I misunderstood why you asked. I let Iron Guard (I think it was him) know the other day he could use a converter. I also used to play with some KBM guys on PS3 but I’ve never been a KBM guy.
