I have 6 loses in a row and more behind those with 1 win. I'm sick and tired of people pairing in two and surrendering/giving up in Joust. I'm extremely disgusted when people just slightly fall behind and then just surrender when I'm basically carrying the WHOLE team. All 6 of those games I had top damage and the better KDA because I'm actually TRYING the whole time. Most of those matches end between 10 - 12 minutes because they just surrender. I get that you want to play with friends because the game is about having fun and enjoying time being spent played with friends but it's almost stupid when both of you surrender in a joust match situation. I understand that you might think you're going to lose but that doesn't mean you can't try till the end. I'm so sick of people messaging me of how bad I played when 1. I probably did better than them 2. It's a casual not ranked 3. People have bad games. If your playing in a pair and wanting to surrender then one of you surrender and wait till the solo person says yes/no. If they say no respect their decision and work just as hard as they are trying so hard not to be surrendered upon because it's complete *profanity*. I'm just so sick of all these players BM'ing and I know that they're just some random person but it just fails me as a human to see that people can be so rude to others and ugh... I'm just gonna take a break from SMITE and hopefully find fun in walking around my time hatching eggs in Pokemon GO. I hope most of y'all are still having fun in SMITE..
That said, doesn't mean people still aren't toxic, or drop/ragequit, etc. Seems like you're always going to run into those people, whether it's SMITE, DOTA/LoL, Call of Duty (hahahahahaha) or whatever. In the internet age, people hide behind technology and feel the freedom to be the ****heads they apparently are.
I mean, look at poor GameGeekFan. Similar situation all over the place.
The best I can say is to find friends, and only play if you've got enough people to be in the majority of a group. Personally, I hardly ever solo-queue for ANY mode anymore. I log on, and hope that friends are on. Before I even got to the main screen last night, I got the big bass-y invite sound from Zilby, and we 5-manned 2 conquest games and the MOTD.
If people aren't there, I just log off and play something else...I mean, who doesn't have a ****load of other games in their Steam library? That allows me to play other games here and there, and also avoid toxicity.
Also solo queuing joust (or even duo queuing) is kinda screwing yourself over as a lot of times your against premades.
