its all too common that you will be chasing down support for ammo only to be ignored but why does it happen?

I think the answer is noobs like LMG’s and noobs dont yet know how to help team 😄  
I also think quite alot of bad team players prefer to play support and this is why we get alot of support trolling people by withholding ammo.

despite this i dont want passive resupply like hardline has as its great when the team helps you 🙂

Have you ever made a post which didn’t involve sneering at other players? The mods have already closed one of your threads for being pointlessly hostile, apparently you didn’t get the hint.

Does that help?

Perhaps these ‘bad players’ are just running away from YOU. If I saw you in a game I would throw you ammo…

…then promptly shoot it!

After all, you want medkits for yourself so why should anyone give you ammo?

Wish we could knock players out with ammo packs for complaining and i,miss the old days when the enemy would drop an ammo pack and all you had to do was add a claymore to it and wait for it .

I actively drop ammo where it’s needed most on Metro and Locker. If someone requests ammo I’ll sprint over and give them it. I’m a total support but I do it right.

i don’t throw ammo down unless they ask for it because 99% of the time if someone has the ammo symbol over their head and i drop it, they run away from it or expect me to follow them and then drop it where they want to be. if you’re too impatient to hang out where i’m at for a couple seconds then pick up an enemy’s loadout when you kill them and if you run out of ammo because you didn’t hold back for 10 seconds then that’s you’re own fault.

Why don’t medics drop med kits?  
Why don’t engies repair?  
Why do people jump into helis just do crash them 3 seconds later?

The mind of bf players is a mystery.

It’s not hostile per’se.. But you do seem to have a tendency to concentrate on **other players** and how they _ **should** _ play the game that they purchased.

IMHO you should concentrate on you, Not other players, It is a videogame, I do not understand how you could take a videogame so seriously like it is a form of employment.

To reiterate, You are playing a videogame, You play for a few hours and then go do something else, You will not earn brownie points by being better than other players, You will not receive some kind of medal or trophy for your participation in a videogame, You will not become any more employable by having a higher KDR / SPM / W-L Ratio than others.

Ultimately, Who cares that there are players who play different to you?

Who cares that they sit in a corner and spam grenades, Or shotguns, Or semi-auto shotguns, Or RPG’s, Or EOD Bot.. As per your previous thread?

They are playing the game in a way that appeals to them, I’m sorry to say this but you will have to just accept it because those players are not going to change their playing habits just to satisfy you.

100% agreed. gunjy should probably listen to a mod of the site but most likely won’t. oh well, no loss when he’s banned again.

In 1500+ hours of playtime you only have 9k+ resupplies?  
If you were throwing ammo like a decent support player should,you would have alot more resupplies than that.

At least beginners have a good excuse, they probably don’t know any better. But some of the most selfish players I see have all kinds of experience, yet they aren’t trying to help their team simply because all they care about is their own stats, their own score, or just their own amusement.

Gimme a break.

OP, why don’t you go back to making threads about how awesome of a player you are when you are sniping on Locker.

And talk about being an aggressive recon and how everyone else sucks and doesn’t play the game the way you want them to.

And about how you cap flags all day long.

My experiance is I am a great ammo guy and guy’s like Op you cant force feed ammo, He is one of those guys that is already standing on your ammo pack hopping up and down shooting you with a pistol.  
I go out of my way to give guy’s ammo. If my team is winning by a good margin I will even redeploy to bring my squad ammo.

He have the exact same amount of support service stars as me and just a little bit more resuplies.. Considering he always playing Locker he seems to be one of those he complain about since its easy to just throw down a ammo bag and see the resuplies go up. Locker only should give you at least x3 more healing and resuplies than other maps.

But now he is banned so I guess the thread is dead.
