pro gaming:hate hate hate

[Cingal]

if its an exploit which was an oversight of the dev's or something that is blatently waiting to be patched/fixed..... then you can call someone a noob for, well, exploiting it. like in mw2 when 2 guys spawn next to each other over and over and kill each other to get all the achievements or get a nuke.

BUT if its just something thats generally looked down upon simply because people dont agree with it and not because its against the rules.... well... you really have no right to complain.

ive lost count of the amount of times people cry "omg spawnkill" at the end of a one-sided clan-stack game of CoD:uo, but its a legitimate tactic and i too unleash the spawnkill when i have the chance.... its just one of those things.

what it boils down to is that one individual is upset that another individual has done something/achieved something in a way which you personally dont want to; because of lofty ideals or ivorytower-ness or whatever.

if its not against the rules then you just have to deal with it. calling people noobs who dont deserve it just ensures you create another generation of rage fueled, insult hurling, bruise-like-a-peach-ego gamers.

Not really. I mean if something is generally accepted as a low skill tactic by the majority of players, then I see no reason why anyone would have an issue with people not liking them using it. Rules don't matter. Developers can't foresee and balance their game for every situation, most don't even bother with a beta test, the idea that I should ignore my own verdict on things and instead trust the rules set by a development company who are unaware of many aspects of their own game. I mean if you look at the gun like the Akimbo Model 1887 on MW2, it's clear they had no idea what they were doing when they went for that gun, evident in that they're already going to be patching it and how it's known more or less by every person who plays that game that it's a low skill weapon to use. If the game was beta tested and the development company listened, this would have never made it to release, as I'm sure a few other aspects of the game would not have either.

If you're playing a console game such as the Xbox 360, setting your Zone to "Underground" and going into match making, you're pretty much asking for such treatment and you should complain for doing so, I mean, it's even in the description for the zone.

I suppose it dates back to the days of the honour code and other such things, it's always been the case that in warfare, humanity opts for code of honour, sure, to the Samurai, killing a guy when he's on the ground wasn't "Against the rules of the game", but, it was shameful to do so. Duelling in the 1800s, as another example, I suppose it just extends towards online gaming as well. If you want to be free from such things, go play private matches with your friends, if they're not asses, great, but, if you're playing competitively with other people, then you should expect an underlying "Code of conduct" so to speak, breaking it results in abuse from others.

Such is the way with online gaming, I'd rather be the one with a sense of superiority than the one receiving abuse.

Lol at people who are so small inside that they have to take video gaming seriously.

I think "noob" is beginning to mean: "Someone who bested you in a video game"

But they only bested you because they chose the non skill requiring way to do it.

You can twist and contort it all you want; they still bested you.

[TheJESTERJ]

Exactly TheSkald. A true pro should be one who is able to adapt to whatever his enemy throws at him, regardless of skill required. Look at some of the top Starcraft player or top Street Fighter 3 players. That Daigo clip where he parries the Chun-Li ultra alone is proof of a real pro.

[raikun09]

If you use a pyro in tf2 and are winning, you are a noob.

this is a fact!!

call me a super noob......cause i force a nature like a true nubb

[Espio0]

force of nature is actually harder to use since you only 2 shots, it has a good knockback, but if your 2 shots miss or only 1 hits and your oponents survives, you are in trouble

[Deimos]

eeeeeeeeexactly

hence "still kicked ur-*ss. noob".

unless someone is using glitches or exploits then i dont care if they use some cowardly tactic.

i guess i just hate seeing the word noob spammed everywhere.

its really bad in mmo's though. if youve just started and you dont have the "right" gear.. NOOB. if you havent balanced your stats same as everyone else NOOB. if you havent followed a build guide NOOB. if you dont know what an acronym means and you have to ask NOOB. if you step one tiny iota out of your class role in a group NOOB LOLOLOL.

i mean how the f*cking hell am i supposed to know that you dont equip the fire cape of maximum owning unless your ****-buff is maxed by level 15 and in a group with an arcane rocketpants summoner?

why the smeg do people have zero tolerance for other people who are blatantly new? i mean.... low level and sh*t gear/asking newby questions is the gaming equivalent of an L plate. do you in real life intentionally tailgate learner drivers and p*ss them off with idiot behaviour and lay into them as soon as you see them on the road? (well if you do you probably dont spend your time on video games).... but yeah, man it p*sses me off when i see people calling other people noobs.

I usually help noobs out to learn the ways of the game and not learn the way of the "skill" guns or builds but to just learn the ways such as in mw2 using the recent shot give away on the radar to predict movement, and how to time shots such as if you see them do you have enough viewable time to get the kill or will they be covered before that last bullet lands (yes you can shot throughw alls but the dmg is redcued and if you dont compensate you wont get the kill.

or in css how to quick switch with awp to reload faster, or in mmo's such as sun ill run them through some of the noobie dungeons and give them pointers on builds and if im well off at the time ill boost up their wallets a bit for + equips.

but really even if im killed by a "noob" i usually just say nice shot...im not a hater lol cause i wasnt always good i started off like that as well and i hated it when people would nerd rage all over me, i also encourage people to do what is fun for them weather that be using the main stream weapons or builds or going awol and doing what ever they feel like (i use a agi/str dk in sun lol...no skills at all, and im a scrambler/cold-blooded/silencer noob in mw2...what? you cant see me you cant kill me)

This is why you should be very selective about who you play games with. Far too many gamers haven't developed the mental ability to deal with losing.

If you use a pyro in tf2 and are winning, you are a noob.

You're just jealous because you can't rocket jump as a pyro.

[V-Opolis]

well the whooped your ***, so it must have been a better tactic than yours...

[Vesper]

You guys are making the DotA community seem kind.

I'm sure most of you are exaggerating.

[Froob]

well the whooped your ***, so it must have been a better tactic than yours...

I'm talking about tf2 op weapons.

So yes the tactic of choosing the most ****ed up op weapon will gain you an occasional kill but will lead to you getting a vote kick/flame till you quit.

I have no respect for those who choose the obvious op advantage weapon just because they cannot get any kills with the normal weapons.

force of nature is actually harder to use since you only 2 shots, it has a good knockback, but if your 2 shots miss or only 1 hits and your oponents survives, you are in trouble

No, it is piss easy to use.

You just say that because you struggle to aim with the scatter gun.

i'm kidding guys this post is just bs don't take it seriously.

[Avarance]

FaN is shit

did you guys know

[Neil]

I was deeply upset when my team on Grand Theft Auto IV ran me down as I was trying to get into their car. They had the cheek to insult me after, too!

ya, why use the lvl 20 gun that does 100 dmg, when you can use the lvl 1 gun that does 5...you make no sense dude.

[marcipaans]

Heroes of Newerth: You pick Scout = noob
You don't get eye as first skill = noob
You pwn with scout(YES NOT KSING!) = noob
You BD(very suited for this) = noob

And the best part is that everyone even your team rages at you.

Holden Caufield couldn't have said it better, Deimos.

If you don't know who that is, forum, then pick a book up.

[Jakuza]

When is an appropriate time to call someone a noob, then?

When they are going 0-32?

[Deimos]

What about if it's really witty?

depends what you mean/understand by witty..... for instance....

someone who pounds their keyboard with their face and lets rip curdling yells of "nnnOOOOOOOOOOB" all the time might think that calling someone a "f*cking noob" is really witty and original. then when all their equally cretinous friends/minions all vomit on their keyboards producing a torrent of "LMFAO " OVER AND OVER AGAIN, the moron in question might have their insult validated and end up walking away thinking "man im so witty".

arguing against groups of people like that feels like you are shouting inside a lead box with the lights switched off; reaching noone and ultimately futile.

[Gadiel]

Insults are always appropriate with a friend who can take them, we just joke around.

Though some people have to learn how to play certain game modes... in MW2... most people think CTF is TDM but less points per kill...

[Darkspine]

OP:

you should play halo with me and not your dumb friend.

stickies? sticking someone is harder than 4 shotting with a BR in my opinion.

offtopic:
people call Assault Rifle a noob weapon.. then what is the "noob tubes" -Rockets- i ask myself? xD


on:again:
haha.

Well, if your up for some game, my gamertag is: iLaCoSt3
