xiaodenden Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I see more elitists in the forum than in game, but I do avoid certain areas of the game and most of the time I don't bother to converse with people in game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clazzeh Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I've never really noticed it myself O-o I mean I've seen some terrible players, THEN looked at the MR to see if they have an excuse to not know about popping survival pods only when low enough. Buut usually they are just newbies needing some tips. Other than that I barely look and being a MR 21 player I now feel I am letting down my stereotype! I must work harder to be one of those guys who kicks someone for not having the "prescribed" equipment that all players MUST have for the mission I am doing! Or... well... I wont, that's too much effort, I prefer just to chill n play with chill people :P And of course to wind up said annoying guys by bringing everything they tell me not to, and then doing my best to outdo them with said equipment 8D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Pretty sure I'm an elitist myself, but it has nothing to do with your mastery rank. Elitist has nothing to do with mastery rank by the way, it's all about the way they use things and make decisions on their builds and stuffs.

PoisonHD Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) *Elitist at MR16 and proud* In all honesty though, I only think MR6 and below are slightly clueless. Edited May 15, 2016 by PoisonHD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robj414 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) I do not judge people by MR, i do know of a few times when I have seen people in recruiting asking for only MR20+ which i find to be a bit of a #$&(% move. But at the same time when a low level mastery player tries to tell me what I am doing is wrong, or things that I am after do not drop from the event I am doing I have no problems at all correcting them and letting them know that I know what I am doing. Eg, Hosting ODD last night trying to get dual kama handles, I said at the start if they drop and someone does not want them I will be willing to buy, quickly get told that they do not drop from ODD by a MR6 player.... Edit: did not realise d.o.u.c.h.e came up as #$&(% :) Edited May 15, 2016 by Robj414 lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tveeggad Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Mastery rank 21, soon to be 22, reporting in. Mastery rank means nothing. That's all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marshmellory Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 generally people only base their MR requirements in recruiting chat while hosting LOR or something, because that's the best way to judge experience even though it is unreliable. the problem isn't really with the people, but with the system itself.

-InV-Skitz0 Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Unsure if this is a hidden meta complaint thread or if the word Elitist is mis/overused. And MR is nothing but a measure of how many items you have ranked not of skill or knowledge. For instance I am MR 21 yet I have only played Inaros/Atlas/Wukong a hand full of time while I leveled them as those frames did not really appeal to me. However there could be a MR 12 player out these that absolutely loves one of those frames with a few hundred game hour invested into them. They would undoubtedly know more about those frame then I and their skill would also be higher from practice alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archeyef Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 Run mission, have gun, shoot gun, badguys die before you do, mission completed successfully, all good. <--- That's my formula. Melee can be substituted for gun as necessary. I've been known to use MR to excuse poor performance in the past, but that's not really viable anymore so I just don't pay attention to it anymore.

shadrad Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 I see it more on the forums than on the game, but I suspect that's because people on the forums have more personal investment in the game than the majority of the actual playerbase that doesn't care enough to be an active part of the community. Heck, I've been playing since 2014-ish and I only joined the forums a few weeks ago because I was drawing stupid fanart and wanted to share :p But when you have a high personal stake in the game, it's easy to start judging other people because their behavior affects you more-- failures make you madder, inconveniences more bothersome, etc etc. Or, you feel like you need to be cool and the best and better than everyone else so you work hard and look down on the people who don't care as much as if they're doing something wrong. Overwhelmingly, the people I've played with or chatted with on the relays are quite friendly and helpful, although, understandably, with a low tolerance for begging, outright defiant stupidity, and stubborn ignorance. On the other hand, on the forums I see a whole lot of complaints and railing at the devs over some random thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, Booben is thanking you. Second, when i feel like a picture is getting the point across better than a wall of text then so be it. Third, i began to tackle the end game content, Fashion Frame, and just bragging about what i could achieve :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nordenfelt_ Posted May 15, 2016 Share Posted May 15, 2016 (edited) MR is just one of criteria. There such things like hours in game, count of kills, etc. If someone better than you at this game, is good opportunity to learn more things from more experienced player. If someone not good in this game as you, you should give them a hand and help to become better. As simple as it is. Yes, some people are trying to put on airs with their high MR or investments in game. And in some sence, it makes them better at game. But still not a better person. So, before you call someone with this new buzz word, think again. Edited May 15, 2016 by Nordenfelt_ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
