But what I'm really upset about is that people aren't communicating and cooperating and being respectful of each other and working together and being social and pushing back the alienation and playing and finding joy.

I'm so fucking isolated these days. This is the closest thing that I have to a social outlet. And so many people in multiplayer games just have no interest in communicating or working together, or have no interest in, like... playing in a way that supports the team and works towards a cooperative goal? Like they're playing by themselves, in a multiplayer lobby, and I absolutely do not understand it and I hate it. I don't understand why people play multiplayer games when they don't wan to play with people.

    it's mostly because multiplayer games are being played by freeze-gamer and thus you will receive the most bigoted vile shit you've ever seen if you make any contact with them.

    If you're playing too well? G*amer cries.

    You've having an off day? G*amer cries.

    You talk too much in the chat? G*amer cries.

    you can't win with these (and i use this word very loosely) people

      I'm a professional companetive freeze-gamer and I need to talk to the dev manager because while I was streaming on Twitch with my 20k followers someone of a NON PROFESSIONAL CLASS outwitted me and powercry-2 RUINED MY SWEET MONTAGE CLIP!

      ralsei-pout I respectfully demand you nerf the fuck out of this class because we don't play that class in competive mini meta game. A PUG should not swat a PRO while mid streaming ever! I will continue to demand you NERF this class and buff my pure true pro essence class that only I can handle because of my vast experience in CoD pro leagues. Otherwise I will just go find another game to stream and take my viewers with me!

      anakin-padme-2 Wouldn't that mess the balance of public games?

      heated-gamer-moment DO YOU WANT E-SPURTZ OR NOT? YOU NEED MY PRO STAR POWER! E-SPERM = Publicity = money. What don't you devs understand?!

      anakin-padme-4 Well if you suck the life out of the casusals then they won't care about your E-Sports and won't support the game.

      honk-enraged E-SPURRRRTTS WILL KEEP THEM IN LINE! I'M A PROFESSIONAL!

      quark Fuck it shrug-outta-hecks nerf casusal 20% buff Pro 10-15%

        Even funnier when the casual playerbase has been saying the competitive scene is corporate astroturf and divest from it anyway, even before balancing for 'pro' play. You mean to tell me ANYONE was paying attention to OWL2 or whatever passes for Halo Infinite's league without there routinely being skins or currency for skins getting dangled off the hook for 'incentive'?
