boy oh boy, do I have a public match story to tell...

Discussion

So, I decided to jump into a game of Der Eisendrache, I was hyped. Little backstory - Normally whenever I play Der Eisendrache I seem to get a lot of revives, one game I got 53, another I got 41... I seem to really enjoy being the medic on Public Matches and to be honest I've always felt this way since World at War. Anyway, I get into a game with a level 32, 35 and 17. Seemed to be a eighth of the way through the game, the level 35 decided to leave, he wasn't doing too well and he didn't really have much effect on the game anyway so I was like whatever. I got my Haymaker as we completed the final dragon. At this point the level 32 had gone down 2 times and the level 17 had gone down 4. A good 10 minutes goes by and none of them had seemed to start the upgrade process for any of the bows so I assumed it was okay for me to begin the Lightning Bow upgrade, I'm pretty comfortable using any bow so I decided to let them choose what bows they wanted. So I'm half way through my Lightning Bow upgrade and the level 32 started following me around the map. It didn't seem like he was annoying me, but seemed like he wanted my help, so I showed him to the PAP and it was a really fulfilling moment, being able to help someone go where they want to without the use of mics.

Okay, it's Round 17, I have completed my upgrade process. I pick up my bow and I'm ready to start playing my role as the medic, but then the level 17 started following me too, he shot towards the Wolf Bow arrow, which he started himself. I assumed he wanted help with the quest so I picked it up and went down to the Rocket Pad. This is where I suck, I tried shooting the flag with my lightning bow and I hit it bang on, however it didn't seem to work, I had never done the Wolf Bow upgrade with a bow other than the original so I had assumed that you needed the original to actually obtain the bow. So I swap my bow out for the original and head down to the flag, turns out the guy had actually already shot the flag and I guess he picked up another quest item that stopped him from progressing with the Wolf Bow. So I come back to the Pyramid place, only to find out that my Lightning Bow had disappeared, the level 17, who wanted me to start the Wolf Bow quest, had taken my bow. I shrugged it off and decided to just use the Wolf Bow for the game instead. I upgrade the Wolf Bow, but the level 32 was still following me around, seemed like he didn't really know what to do and I wasn't very comfortable with him having the original bow, so I gave him my Wolf Bow and went to start the Fire Bow upgrade. Little recap, I upgraded two bows for my teamates at this stage so I currently have the original bow. I shoot the place where the Fire Bow quest starts and out pops the arrow, unfortunately because the Original Bow sucked I got overran by zombies and had to jump down, as I jumped down, the level 32, who I gave my Wolf Bow to, took the Unforged arrow (I'm not sure if he knew this would mean I can't upgrade the bow or not) But I basically could not upgrade a bow for the rest of the game. I wasn't too mad about that however I just bought the KRM off of the wall and PAP'd it so I was running the KRM and Haymaker both PAP'd.

A little while later and it's Round 21, the level 17 was in the Courtyard near the first dragon, attempting to do a glitch, I blocked him off from doing the glitch several times, but my level 32 team mate kept going down so I had to revive him. Every time I went to revive him, the level 17 kept trying to get into this glitch. Okay, this is where it gets annoying. So, I decided I wouldn't be salty about this Lightning Bow situation and would keep reviving this guy when he went down. It's now Round 23, I have 0 downs and 32 revives at this stage, however I'm completely out of ammo, so I try to run and get some KRM ammo, but my shield breaks and the zombies take me out, the level 17 killed the zombies around me and a nuked dropped, I was expecting to be revived but instead I am greeted with a teabag until I bleed out and lose my guns (The level 32 was on the other side of the map as this happened). As my body disappears, this guy runs right back to try and get into this glitch, luckily the level 32 caught on to what the guy was doing and also blocked him from getting into the glitch until they both go down on that same round.

Apologies for my poor grammar and storytelling, I am currently extremely tired and I think it's about time I went to sleep lol.

TL;DR - Glitches are assholes lol.
