This is more of a talk about Operations mode

I've been playing this game since S6 with 230+h of experience.

From what I learned so far, Delta Force or extraction shooters affect me the most than other shooters.

Whenever I lose, there are times that it really affects me.

I play this game in a good or perfect environment whenever I'm playing the game in a serious way, and it increases my chances in survival. Like I had to adjust myself irl to play this game in my great state.

I'm not sure if I should be playing in this kind of serious way. I'm not sure if it's really that deep, but for me, minor inconvenience irl, mood, and mental state can really affect my performance and my match results.

Like I said, I don't think it's that deep. This is the first time ever that I took shooters THIS seriously.

I've had white hairs because of this game (jk)

I've been through lots of hell in this game, to the point that I almost quit. I told myself not to give up because this is the process of enduring and learning extraction shooters. The hard work was worth it, not gonna lie.

Now, I understand that this game shouldn't dictate my entire real life state.

Right now, I have so many collections in my collection room, I have 28M alloys (not making good financial decisions, currently recovering). Looking at the collection room, I'm kind of proud of myself for the work.

This game is a double-edged sword. There are times you are so happy, but there are times you're completely destroyed. For me, both have equally the same impact.

Losses felt like it gave me a irl pain of losing as intensely as the joy of winning.

Every game, I always told myself to focus and NEVER lose guard, and I never play Operations when I'm in a negative state. Unlike other shooters, I'll play even though I'm sad, angry, in pain, tired, etc.

It can make me tired for a few hours because maintaining the "never lose guard" focus burns dopamine and adrenaline.

Maybe I'm just saying this because I'm more emotional today than before when I was 10 when I never took shooters this serious.

I love and hate this game.

That's it for the long ahh paragraph. Thx for reading.

What I learned is:

Sell enemies' weapons to auction house

Sell useless thingd in auction house

Sell purple to red ammo to auction house that you obtained from enemies

Complete missions and season missions

When the collection box is full, sell all the golds and reds

Make smart financial decisions

What else am I missing?

Currently on 30M

I'm not saying I'm a perfect player, I'm saying that I'm not that kind of player who's freaking out in battles.

I can finally kill operators and survive Normal mode sessions

Many of the practices and learning finally paid off.

I still die, but it's not worse like back then

Unlike any other shooters, this game and Arena Breakout took me a while to get to a stable and average level.

Ngl, I'm proud of myself because extraction shooters, especially Delta Force made me go through every human emotion

Was I lucky in here?

Luck or skill?

That's 3 or more sessions lost today because everyone's running on full reds.

Am I missing something?
