Don't. He's the kind of asshole that ruins the game for everyone else. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 4162 Joined: 23 Apr 2008 | Hmm, well, it seems the XBox Live Halo and PC Counter-strike chimps are trying Left 4 Dead. Fortunately, they'll soon bore of it and wonder off to look at something shiny ;) (note: I'm not calling players of either of those games chimps, but if you play either of them, you'll know the guys I'm talking about ;)) |

Explain how that makes any sense... So 2 people now make up the majority of live - your going to find idiots on all systems. |

Exactly what I thought. Perhaps it is immature of me, but I really do think that it's funny. User was banned for: The Second Annual Escapist Election: Part 1: Presidential Primaries. (Permanent) |
Press Junketeer Posts: 460 Joined: 5 Jun 2008 | I started posting at this site because there are fewer than the usual amount of defensive 'console-of-choice' fanboys here. I've stopped posting as much because it turns out their place has been taken by a much higher than usual 'PC-owner-with-a-superiority-complex' quotient. Sad. |

They are about on PC... Your just lucky enough not to have seen them yet |

True that. I think i only just realised how much i friendly fire. I don't mean to do it, but sometimes your buddies will decide to park their asses in front of you while your popping a few zombie heads with your shotgun, or i just have bad aim, twitch, and shoot them accidently. This has become extremely apparent in advanced/expert difficulties where i'm the only one with green health and everyone else has fallen down at least once. I don't think i did that much damage, but certainly some of it. I think i'll stick to the hunting rifle or assault rifle until i work on my friendly fire. |

Ever heard of research groups? That's how marketing companies test their products, that's how directors test their pilot of a upcoming series. In this case my research group consists of two people, the conclusions that I'll find won't be very strong but it doesn't take any liability of the method I'm using. Now if I was going to oh lets say youtube and use all the fucking videos people tape complaining about xbox live and the racist kiddos to my personal research group I would have stronger evidence to back my claim. There's a reason why people don't make videos complaining about the PSN you know. Xbox live has too many idiots in it. That doesn't necessarily make ALL of the live users morons though.

The irony. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 4297 Joined: 20 Dec 2007 | Alright, just recently I've played with our beloved M.D. - I was lagging, and my mouse was suffering because of it. Blood Harvest. Expert. Chapter 4. We almost make it into the safe room and I friendly fired my team. I kept doing so due to the technical difficulties. Unintentional assholery is worse than actual assholery, because you feel guilt. |

Yes, XBL is full of annoying, racist kids. Yes, they could have been teenagers or adults so let me rephrase: XBL is full of annoying, racist people. Annoying, racist people suck. Therefore, by the transitive property, XBL sucks. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 4297 Joined: 20 Dec 2007 | OK Generlizations are bad and all, but is there someone who is actually defending the XBL community? You should be thankful you have to pay for it, imagine what kind of people would get on if it was free! |

You made a grammar mistake, so by logic, you are complete idiot. |

Should have been: "Xbox live has too many idiots on it." Pedantic surely, but still ironic. |

Oh alright thanks. And I love it when people turn to grammar and criticize it instead of addressing the points. User was banned for: FUN FORUM GAME THX FO PLAYIN :3. (Permanent) |

Well, if they're the idiots, why are you so sensitive to it? You always seem to have a snappy response to even the most sadly retarded dullard, instead of leaving them to their idiocy. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2873 Joined: 25 Aug 2008 | I think there are a lot of idiots on every system including the PC for instance last night my friends had buggered off for sleep and so I joined a game with a bunch of strangers, things were going alright at first but then one of the team ran on ahead and got mauled by a hunter. So I healed him with my medkit. Needless to say he did not return the favour as later on when the rest of the team was near death and were struggling along he decides to heal himself with his medkit despite the fact he was only in yellow health where the rest of us were in the red in regards to health. Finely near the end of the game we get attacked by a tank and mauled badly, I had found another medkit by this point, and so used in on myself during the tank account, that guy then dies calls me a noob and votekicks me. Needless to say I just decided to leave anyway so there's assholes everywhere |

I'm not criticising your points, in fact I quite agree that you will never find a more wretched hive of scum and racist twats than Xbox LIVE. I just found it amusing you referred to idiots in that sentence and made a grammar mistake. Need to calm down man, you know I'm not hatin' on you. |

No worries man. |
Beat Writer Posts: 140 Joined: 21 Jun 2008 | I think kids on XBL thing they are awesome is because of the games they play...Most games on 360 show you as a superman who kicks arse everywhere...that alters their tiny brains into mush while shoving the idea they are just as awesome online...so when they lose they believe people are cheating and are normally total a-holes. |

Firstly, whether it's a PC or a console version of a game, you are going to find arrogant and immature assholes in online games. You may not have found any yet, you may not find any today, you may not find any in the immediate future but you will some day, I guarentee you. Secondly, If I remember correctly I believe I stated on a different thread previously that I predicted that this game would have an issue with co-operation between players. I would now like to take the time to say 'I fucking called it'. (here's the link: http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/read/7.70444#729379) Finally, I also had problems with other players (this was in the demo), one person on my team randomly turned his mic off and started hurling molotovs at us, fireing his shotty at us and making sure we had no medical kits left by using them all on himself along with any pills in the level (this was on advanced difficulty if anyone is curious). |

To be honest, I don't think that Earth is entirely ready for that. |

You do know the reason there are not many videos insulting PSN users - because not many PSN users have microphones, whilst almost everyone on Live does. You cannot have a scientific experiment based on 2 people. There are over a million Live accounts; and you are comparing youtube videos (so about a few hundred idiots on videos) against millions of people... |

Okay, I'm not completely innocent of finding imaginary characters hot, but that just creeped me out to no end. |

That's just the thing. YOU CAN. Gather and study 10 elephants. Now, there might be an elephant out there without a trunk but given the conclusion we take from the research group it is highly unlikely to happen. Apply that logic to xbox live.

You want to know what else is based on generalization? Racism. |

Also medical research... In fact, almost every kind of research. |
Gone Gonzo Posts: 2080 Joined: 1 Jan 2008 |
Well, medical research involves a large group of very (medically, different blood types/conditions, etc.) different people, but racism starts when a black man steals your car and you start thinking all black people would do such a thing. I was making a point about Richard accusing all of the XBL community of being idiots because of two people that were being idiots (they weren't even playing on they Xbox to begin with). |

It is, but some people seem to think that they can take on a Hunter, Boomer, and a Horde by themselves and Run ahead of the group (True Story, happened last night, we debated whether or not to revive him)
