Don't call them a friend anymore XO
I'm a gamer, but I don't freak out over things like that. Your friends take things too seriously.
The 3 worst communities I've seen in retail fps games are Halo, MW and L4D series so this stuff doesn't surprise me but when friends start acting that way screw that. I'd be looking for some real friends who play for fun and who are not douche bag elitist.
I've recently been playing, "Final Fantasy Tactics A2: Grimoire of the Rift." There is so much ridiculous meta-gaming it's ridiculous. This game doesn't even support wifi battles. Yet people are so judgmental on unit growth/job choice. It's ridiculous.
They are noobs for fearing all the weapons...
If you use a pyro in tf2 and are winning, you are a noob.
Shotties on MW2 are suprisingly hard to use. I don't see what they're talking about. The range on a shotgun is like 4 feet. You've gotta be either very covert or rather deadly with your pistol.
I know how you feel OP, I used to have a friend who was exactly like that.
One of my friends turned into a douche bag like that.
We were playing MW2 and he started calling me a noob for running around with cold-blooded, ninja and a tactical knife, when it took a hell of a lot more skill to pull off kills that way than it took for him to "defend" 1 point that we owned when he could of been capturing one of the other 2 points that the enemy owned. >_>
He joined a clan that was apparently 'pro' and then started like that. The clan was actually just a group of whining morons who couldn't face the fact that they got killed, so called people noobs everytime it happened. :hmm:
+1 reason not to join a pro gaming guild/clan/league.Quote:

and i was in a "pro" guild when i started aion and i got kicked out after a month because i wasn't level 35 yet.
I suppose I'll get into more detail about this person I know.
My "Friend" (Who I HATE now) used to think of himself as a pro and all god like.
Whenever he got killed you only thing you heard was "oh my god, noob" or "Bull sh*t" and "What the f*ck?!" All your typical nerd rage sayings. He was pretty much a raging ******.
What made me LOL about him was that you'd kill him with the sniper and he'd say "sniper is for noobs!" then you'd drop the sniper just to shut him up and then after a minute later you'd see him in a corner USING THE SNIPER!
I still remember the day when he told an american over on Xbox Live to go eat an apple pie...
Is that supposed to be an insult?.........Quote:

It's called Gears of WAR, not Gears of the Geneva Convention. It's a war, fight it or get out. I'm not here for rules, I'm here to win.
i once joined a friend of mine in his halo 3 match for fun, he's pretty much a one man army...
it was 5v5 team Deathmatch , 3 other friends joined the fray and against us where nothing less but americans, now, you gotta know this, i suck at halo 3, but when someone like me stops a high ranked guy's killing spree with a sticky nade right in the face, thats just ****ing funny
once that happened, the "OMFG JOO NOOB, JOO SUCK, NADE *****" and all that flew in my direction, the result was our team leading by roughly 40 points and winning
how did we know they where americans?
simple
"omg you bunch of noobs we totaly owned you" in this snobby american english accent
while we mopped the floor with em
wish i were british =/
Why? O_oQuote:

luckily in FPS games like those, i just troll them. why limit the weapons?
then again im the reason most people in TF2 turn off all unlockables.
but either way i almost always use the normal weapons.
God, I hate people that get butt-hurt over video games. When you have games that are designed for fun adding to your stress, you're doing it wrong.
As long as there's competition, there will be rage. Applies to everything in life, sadly. It's just that gamers tend to be more annoying.
Well sure, getting upset over it is OK to an extent, but when you start letting it ruin your day...Quote:

Well i can see where they're coming from, it doesn't exactly take that much skill to hold b button and spam A all the time. BUT, i do agree that people don't have to be so elitist about what real "pros" use.Quote:

So? If a player is just annoyed that they've spent all their time trying to be good with a shotgun, only to be chainsawed from behind...well I guess it sucks to be them.Quote:

I don't specifically walk around looking for chainsaw kills, but if you don't know I'm coming, then chainsaw is the best method of guaranteed kill. I'm not gonna reveal that I'm about to kill you by using a less guaranteed weapon, simply to maintain a sense of honour. I'm going to make noisy, motorised and bladed love to from behind.
It's like when people in street fights get mad because the other guy kicked him in the balls. What's that about? It's a fight. Like I said, fight it or get out.
Choose Sagat, crouch the whole time and spam low-kicks, it will piss them off to no-end and you will lol the whole night.
they all suck GG. bad mlg players is bad
Thats how I feel about fighting/RTS games.Quote:

Funny thing is, usually that "******" is the one who won the match, because they caught their opponent off guard. It's called strategy :)
Besides, in some games, there really is a limit to how much you can actually know.
Street Fighter tournaments for example. Sure, you've got your Daigos and your Justin...whatever the guy's name is, but ultimately that game is about who can land the move first. That's it. There really is no "better" fighter.
Tekken requires far more skill.
Gears etc require way more skill than fighting games. Fact of the matter is, you won't usually get chainsawed unless you're crappy at it. It CAN happen, but then if you get chainsawed and you're actually good, it was your own flawed strategy most likely.
