Winning Domination Solo. A Losing Proposition.

I honestly don't know how people do it. It's about as mystifying as the people who play Domination and sit in a corner between flags and even when the guy yells "WE'RE LOSING B!!!" don't react in the slightest.

 

I played 4 consecutive games of Mercenary Domination and averaged 48 kills, 17 deaths, 6 caps, and 5 defends per game and only finished 2-2. The two games I lost weren't even close and I'm not sure anybody on my team moved from a ten foot square radius after spawning. I honestly give anyone who has the fortitude to play Domination by themselves massive props. And that's only to the people who are in it to win it. Not the guys who play to go 20-2 with zero caps.

 

I need to start sending messages to people that I see playing the objective hard commending them because they really are a dying breed in this game.

    I play solo, and I play Domination... my W/L is 0.75 if I had to guess

    Gets VERY frustrating at times

    I love Dom but refuse to play it without a party for this very reason and since I rarely have one this time around I'm forced to play CTF.

    I'm a double cap and defend type of Dom player. That's insanely hard to do solo because when you do get another objective player they are not only willing to jump on objectives, they're willing to do it recklessly. At least in a game mode like CTF you have more of a say in the outcome by defending your flag. They can't cap if they can't grab and they can't win if they can't cap. You're still left hoping your team of randoms will grab their flag though If you try to cap your teammates won't defend -___-

     

    There is rarely a bright side to playing solo.

    I gave up on playing DOM by myself...  it's just not worth the frustration.  I stick to TDM now as it's actually possible to win a game by yourself.

    I've been a huge TDM player since CoD4 but I just can't stomach it this time around. I played TDM for the first day or so of game time and got fed up with the spawn system. I moved on to objectives where spawns are based on the objective. Less hectic that way and I always seem to be in a team with those split screeners when playing TDM so it just wasn't for me this time.

    Feel your pain, bro.

     

    But its true of every game type these days.

     

    In all other CODs, 90% of matches would end when one side scored 75 kills. Not anymore. Its frustrating when you have over 25 kills and your team still loses.

     

    KC? Same thing. You get 35 or so kills and have 4000 plus points ... yet your team loses??? WTF??

     

    Domination ... the sadest part of all? You  have 30 kills and your best teammate has 12 kills. And when the post-game accolades come up, you get the accolade for most points captured. That's retarded.

     

    I do the best I can now. To hell with it. I just work on completing challenges if my teammates are going to be turds on a log.
