Completely off topic of everything else, I bought Counter-Strike: Global Offensive yesterday (at um... 3:00 AM). My brother kept recommending and went on and on about how great it was. I did three or so games against bots (which I enjoyed, but I swear I was hitting things and it was showing that I wasn't) before he forced me into playing online with him. I uninstalled the game and requested a refund after the first match I did. It has such a hateful community that I don't understand why anyone would want to play it. The whole focus is multiplayer, so what's the point if everyone is a bunch of assholes? He wasn't helping either, I was asking him things and he just didn't answer me. I had like four kills and eight assists and eight deaths, so I wasn't not doing anything, but people were flipping s*** (no idea how to mute) and then wanted to kick me.

Requesting a refund seems a little dramatic probably, but the only other multiplayer focused shooters I've played would be Battlefield and Call of Duty with my brothers on the Xbox 360, and Combat Arms on the PC (I thought they had a terrible community... At least people there usually aren't hateful when someone does bad, and I've met a lot of really, really nice people in the game too), in all three of those I've never had as un-enjoyable a time as I had in CSGO.

 

 

My brother got CSGO and said he only played a single match and then never again. I think those extremely minimalistic, hardcore skill-based games attract the wrong crowds in general (thus I stay away from them). I also used to play Call of Duty aaaaages ago on the Xbox (well, my brother did - I just joined every so often) and yeah, those players seem tame compared to Counter-Strike players. :confused:

 

I've never been one for gaming with strangers, anyway. Online games with friends: good. Online games with strangers: potential s***storm.

 

You should have been around back in the good old days of multiplayer games when people still played Quake 1 & 2 and Unreal Tournament. Back then the servers were mostly crowded with serious players only instead of the annoying little kids that crowd the servers nowadays.

I hardly even play any multiplayer games anymore these days thanks to those little brats. Last one I played was Battlefield 3.

 

I WIN!

 

You do? Oh darn. I though I did. :confused:

I'd know that person anywhere! That's the old party caller.

 

When you think all that's left to do is sleep and bare the weight of the night wondering why we work so hard all day or night, (depending on where you work), The LIGHT comes on and it's Party Time. :woot:

 

Come as you are! :cool:

 

If you don't prepare (so you're in your party clothes, well) your birthday suit will have to do.

 

I WIN!
