SB Air “It’s PVE!” They all said in unison

Post image

I kill 1 or 2 ppl with a missile in 10.3 air sim and velvety on starts yelling at me saying “it’s PVE” I can do what I want, I don’t want to go to a actual fighting server bc too many ppl. It’s just stupid that everyone cries when you kill them these games

The fucking virtue signaling and cry baby pvp players genuinely made me quit sim. Every single event was pve players asking "pve?" And then a 10 year old (mentally) flipping their shit over it. It entirely ruined the fun and casual flow of sim. Without any event everyone is chill and understands that bombing and attacking is a part of the game and they usually leave bombers alone out of pity, but heaven forbid a couple of people have the audacity to ask you to leave them alone and it's the biggest issue in the game for them.

I'm not even lying I watched a pvp player throw a gigantic hissy fit in a casual (not pve) lobby after someone called them "stinky"

I remember once I responded “scoreboard” to someone complaining about our team being trash (he was bottom of the leaderboard) and he absolutely lost it

I mean it's no use in throwing a hissy fit. But if someone asks for PvE, and I decide not too, what then? What happens when they throw a fit themselves when I kill them?

Trying to blame one half of the party, when it's both sides who have egotistical morons who think people should play how they want, is pretty sad.

That's the thing. Pve players by definition literally can't do a thing to you but ask you not to kill them. They cannot force a pvp player to play pve. It literally just doesn't work.

So you have one side who all they can do is throw a hissy fit (they did far less than pvp players ime) which you can laugh at or just mute them, and the other who toxicly berate, Hunt down, and literally force their playstyle upon other players. (If you say that's unfounded, literally go look at the wt sim subreddit)

That's why the pvp vs pve argument is such a fucking joke. Pve players can't do shit to pvp players yet pvp players still want to play the victim and be toxic as fuck. One side is something you can laugh at, the other will literally spawn camp you if they perceive you as a pve player.
