What is 'playing the objective' to you? (slrpnk.net)

On the other site, people complain a lot about players not 'playing the objective'. But it seems to me that people have many own ways of doing that. What's yours?

I'm different. As with real hunters I accept that often I return with empty hands.

But is this fun for you? When playing as a trio those solos shooting sub sonic silencers from 150m are not even annoying and I always wonder if this isn't terribly boring to play. The only chance you have is hitting three consecutive lucky headshots. I'd rather get closer and have a real fighting chance, even if you die sometimes.

Oh yes, for me it's about the tension mainly. And using my advantage as a solo to be sneaky. I don't actively avoid combat usually, but don't go looking for it per se. I personally don't run much silenced weapons anymore these days. The psychological impact of loud gunshots is really important in this game. And in the current event, I have had multiple fights where I get in between two teams duking it out. That was fun and probably added quite a bit of confusion to the shootout. Will do that more often!
