People are too afraid to Banzai-Charge?
Why is it that so many people don't join Banzai-Charges? You set them up via chat/voice, smoke the targeted area and give the command or a countdown... and only 1-2 dudes rush with you. Maybe 5.

The charge is very effective in my opinion, especially paired with proper smoke. Be it on the offense or defense. Yet, most people just stay behind to pew pew or throw grenades into the few that actually charge. It's also really gamebreaking when you're on the offense and will cost you the chance of actually winning the round. Unless the other team is even worse ofc :P

In the 28 hours I've played so far, it was done properly only 6 times. It worked flawlessly and won the match.

I don't get this... it's just sad... especially when I see people ♥♥♥♥♥ing about US being OP...
Guess what people! If you don't use your given assets, yes, you'll lose.

Am I really that much out of luck or can anyone relate? It's really sickening...

If you have a mic, start yelling Banzai!!! in voice chat to get other people to join you.

Nope...

i agree man, people who play ♥♥♥♥ don't use all or any of the abilities your given to even the fight like planting grenade mines and banzai charges. Maybe people just don't know you can do these things or most likely their just a bunch of ♥♥♥♥♥♥.

Yup, booby-traps are also rarely planted...

Banzi charge +smoke + enough guys doing it is hard as heck to defeat as US. Well unless the flamer guy is in the right/wrong spot. Or i guess if in open ground agasint alot of mg's. Alot of guys can not seem to figure out how to do it.... Like shift + middle mouse (or whatever you set too) is to hard. If your guys is screaming crap.......hes in banzi.

I have never seen one happen. I would join one if I knew it was there.

Not just banzai charges win the battle, but teamwork. Each team i've played with that was active in working together, has always won the battle.

Don't just sit and play. Work together, makes it a lot more fun.

Because half the time people just yell into their ♥♥♥♥♥♥ microphone with a foreign accent "Banzai, banzai" quietly.
I don't give a ♥♥♥♥ if you wanna jump in because you're doing badly, that's your business. Keep it out my of killing spree.

If my squad leader or commander is being really nice and talktive throughout the match, sure I'll listen when he says "Go left flank" or "Banzai charge in 5s." Because I know that he's not talking a load of bull.

Besides, you can banzai alone and still get good kills. I've killed alot of people with my Katana on my own. Get in from the rear and stabby stabby. If you charge in head on you die anyway.


TL;DR
Only banzai when good leaders ask to, not when some random guy who's never spoken before yells banzai

People are too afraid of dieing in-game...they refuse to go towards death, its hardwired in gamers heads

I play with a mic and try my best to organize my team to do banzai charges and use teamwork in general. I think the problem is that most people don't actually know how to do a banzai (middle mouse button). I'm a pretty relaxed guy and i'm nice even when I'm tryng to give orders but a lot of the time when I tell people to move into the objective I get responded with stfu or f you ect but I think that's just from the influx of people who just bought this game because it was new and shiny. I think in a month or so people will be more inclined to banzai charge because they've practiced and understand the game more.

i always find myself banzaing alone, hell at times, I just banzai even if i shouldn't. The more in the charge ( the more xNumber as in x2/x3) the more powerful the charge. But it's sad, it's like most are bots, they just ignore it.

I love Banzai! I had a great match that i happened to record. Here are the highlights.
Not everyone is afaraid of the banzai, well Americans excluded.

I think part of the problem is the people dont actually know HOW to banzai. I've frequently seen people running with the banzai charge and not doing it, or complaining about how their banzai charges never work and then you tell them the controls and they are suprised.
