Base Terrier - the most frustrating ship in the game
I recently started trying to play Terrier in ?go base. Usually it goes ok, but sometimes it is just so frustrating that I want to just turn the computer off. I have a completely newfound respect for guys who play terr primarily, especially in ?go base where you usually don't have a solid team that you can trust. Terrier is absolutely the most frustrating ship in the entire game.
First of all, your entire team depends on you. You have to be alert for the entire game, unlike most other ships where you can dick around for a while if you want. Then you have the issue of bad teammates, who do shit that causes you to die, or don't protect you well enough. If your sharks aren't playing well during that game, you will go nuts. Then you have the one or two people that will complain or whine when you die; this just makes things even worse. A team is way better off without a whining bitch, no matter how good they may be as an individual player. When I terr, if someone complains I start to do considerably worse and go on a downward spiral. The absolute most frustrating thing about the Terrier though, is when you die because of a mistake one of your teammates makes. Having played the Terrier, I realize now how absolutely infuriating it is to die from a mine or burst being repelled into you, or being tked by a jav bomb or shark mine. Terrier just sucks because as long as you are being alert and playing ok, 90% of your deaths will probably come as a result of one of your teammates making a mistake or not doing something they should have done.
I don't know how people can stand to play Terrier in ?go base over and over. I find it's ok once and a while if you have a solid team, but for god's sake, in a few of those games I was ready to just press escape Q.
