Some battles that end in defeat are great fun. Especially if you are outnumbered. However a constant exposure to being outnumbered might be detrimental to morale.

This is where you spawn in as an AI Max and goto town on spawn campers.

Oldschool Markov VS may remember this.

Re: How fun is it to lose?


How fun is it to lose? To look out of a base and see a legion of enemy tanks, reavers, BFRs and troops closing in on the last base your empire has on the continent? To be standing there, shoulder to shoulder with ten of the most stubborn SOB outfit mates you have worked with, who won't retreat? Gradually be pushed back, but make the enemy pay for every inch? To make that last ditch last charge to retake the generator room? To force your enemy to a Pyrrhic victory of the base going neutral?

The most fun you will ever have in an FPS my friend.

for me fighting a losing battle (with hopes to MAYBE just keep the base) is much more fun than fighting a battle i know i can win
must be my underdog spirit

Defending even defeats sometimes can be interesting. I remember trying to lay mines just to delay the inevitible overrun by the enemy and falling backbehind burnt hulls of friendly vehicles which got blasted.
