find most people care about offense way too much. they fail to realize that a few extra points during the game doesn't mean much if you lose and end up getting a negative ladder score. a bit more defense might have gotten their whole team a win and a positive ladder score.

so true. i joined a game today on the city map. when i got there nod was losing 300 to 6 or some lop sided score like that. i was the only one in the base and the tr was about half gone with a mammy shelling it. i repaired it while the mammy kept firing away. then it stopped and i heard pp under attack and by the time i got to it, it was half gone as well. i sat there healing it under intense firing but finally got it repaired after the mrls was dispatched or retreated. for several minutes i just kept running from building to building with no help until finally someone else bought a tech and helped me out. somebody on our team must have known what they were doing as i kept hearing that gdi buildings were under attack and then destroyed(sounds like gdi had the same lack of defense that we did). anyway, we finally won the game as their last building fell. it's so satisfying to feel like i contributed to the victory!
