12 Gamers we hate playing with

GamesRadar - They're out there. The crybabies, the douchebags, and the whiners--the people who know the perfect way to spoil your otherwise enjoyable gaming experience.

They could be smartass trolls, immature children, or just naturally inclined to be an obnoxious turd. Whatever their motivations, having them in your game is a surefire way to instantly put you into a mad scramble for the mute button.

I recall playing Halo 3 back in the day. This one kid on there kept yelling every profanity he could. You could tell he hadn't hit puberty yet by the sound of his voice... I stopped playing for a while after that, it's a real deterrent to me personally. I'd like to play mature games with mature people. Though I suppose that's a bit naive. There are just too many idiots out there for that to be a reality lol.

showtimefolks4020d ago

I don't know but I am more of a single player gamer and even when I do play online is Killzone or resistance other than that not much else

When insomniac left out 8 player co-op in resistance 3 that was my goodbye to the series. Can't wait for next Killzone hopefully it will be a good mixture of Killzone 2-3

My experience with Killzone 2-3 on ps3 was a mature crowd playing it, I am happy ther is COd which requires no skills so all the kids are playing it and leaving other GREAT FPS alone.(not saying COD isn't great,give the game it's due it's very good pick up and play FOS)

BiggCMan4020d ago

I feel the same way about the co-op from Resistance 2 (dunno about saying goodbye to the series though, 3 was a much better story).

That mode was the best I have ever played in any multiplayer game. Everything was perfect, and everyone ALWAYS worked together in it. I love how no single class could get through a match on it's own, you absolutely NEEDED at least one medic, soldier, and spec-op guy to succeed.

That is very hard to find these days with many games making one class over powered and over used. I feel like playing that now, think I will get on it tomorrow to see if it's alive.

showtimefolks4020d ago

Yeh I shouldn't have said goodbye, I will support resistance but I think Sony is putting it on hold if I am not wrong

That 8 player co-op was magical

Like you said either work together or die and it was 99.9% of the times working together part. I hope we see that mode going forward in some other game maybe if there isn't a resistance game soon how about including it in Killzone

Mute...I've come to really appreciate it.

All Boys ages 10-14 think they are the coolest person in the world and they are all cocky and ignorant.

^ This just happens to make up about 40% of people in online games though so it becomes noticeable.

I would love to see insta-bans for stuff like that.

Yes the online gaming community would shrink a bit, but we would not have to deal with a whole segment of ignorant people in society.

Evil_Ryu4020d ago

for me the worst is wigger teens who are blasting hip hop music through there microphone and cussing every second word.

avengers19784020d ago

Or the ones that start rapping... Can't stand that... Thank god for mute

Are_The_MaDNess4020d ago

these guys have never played a MOBA game apparently.
you dont even know what hate for a player is until you have played it for quite some time.............

ExCest4020d ago

Well, their anger is slightly justified since MOBA games are highly competitive. It breeds competitive players who want to win and people who bring them down are a nuisance to them which gets them angry, making them a nuisance to others.

kneon4020d ago

There are people who fit into several categories at once so the possible number of combinations is pretty big.

SonyPS44020d ago

I am considering getting into PC gaming and play online there. That way there would be less chances of running into 8-year old kids that swear more than every adult gamer I know...

NarooN4020d ago

I've been on PC for years and trust me, there's still a lot of kids there too. Not nearly as much, but still a lot.

Qrphe4020d ago (Edited 4020d ago )

There are underage kids everywhere. Maybe because you haven't played, but there are plenty of horror stories from CS and TF2.

A Matter Of Trust: What The Game Industry Should Do To Win Gamers Back

Skewed and Reviewed have written an Opinion Piece covering issues in the gaming industry, how current issues were issues years ago, and what can be done to help restore consumer trust.

anast21h ago

Nothing. It's up to the gamers to stop consuming content from companies that they don't agree with.

Garethvk7h ago

How do you know if you agree with it or not unless you play it? Which without conventions forces gamers to rely on trailers. Perhaps Demos should be made more frequently. But companies need to do better as well.

anast7h ago

Wait until release. Watch Gameplay. Exercise patience.

Garethvk7h ago

But is that not what they have now? Tons of gameplay or are you talking about watching actual gamers play it versus the trailers and streams? The big issue is that some companies pay streamers and influencers and they create content but for me; that is hardly a fair, unbiased, and factual look at a game.

1nsomniac11h ago

Get rid of the suits in the industry and job done!!

Garethvk7h ago

They usually are attached to the money sadly. It would be nice to have gamers in charge but you have so much money invested that business people are needed. Hence the issue; you need people who know business but are also gamers who know have an eye to the community. It sounds simple in theory that if you give gamers quality games that they want to play; money will be made. But that is not always so.
