So I tried Infected for the first time today. First spent a few minutes getting a group together, then we went in. We had one of our five bail on us just as we entered the system, but we managed to take down the gateway and beam down with just the four of us.
After about an hour or so of battling Borg in the station, team members began to bail one by one until I was finally the only one left and had to quit the mission because there was no way to finish on my own.
Oh yeah, that's right, the reason why I liked STO over EvE was because I didn't have to worry about finding teammates. Apparently in STO, finding teammates to take on a mission isn't the problem, it's finding teammates you can count on not to bail out before the end. Hmm.
I'll try again, of course, maybe even later today. In the meantime though, I'm kind of annoyed at blowing nearly two hours on a mission I'll now have to start from the beginning next time.
Fuck it, I think I'm gonna go play some Bioshock 2.

Its not uncommon to have people bail on you doing the Infection Raid. Different people young or old have different lvls of commitment as to what they can stand at doing a task.
ReplyDeleteSome people are easy quitters, some have endurance to keep at it learning and adapt.
All it takes is one quitter and thats easily derails your group and when people quit its like a infection for the very next person to quit just as fast.
I did it over the weekend and we only made it half way. First person quit at that point and it was the group leader who formed the group, he bailed before anyone else. less than 10 seconds later next person got infected with what the group leader had and quit too. I laughed at how easy it was for them both to quit.
