My most played game on Xbox360 Is TigerWoods.
You can guarantee if a yank is loosing he will QUIT, every time.
I also noticed this in other games and more often than not it's a yank !!!
Am i beeing unfair or has anyone else noticed this ??

PS- I'm not saying other nationalities don't quit when loosing but i just notice in "my" experience 9 times out of 10 its americans.

Come on MickeyD help me out here ....
 
It is possible that the majority of people you come accross on Live are actually American too though.

What i have found is the screaming pain in the butt kids are usually American and that does bug me :(
 
in my experience not all americans are loud, obnoxious, lousy losers BUT if you do an encounter a loud, obnoxious, lousy loser on live then 9 times out of 10 he will be american ;)
 
i no what u mean was play rainbow6 vegas last night and it was my 4th game online and i got 12 kills in a row with sniper rifle i had the server full of yanks half of them left the server even though most got more kills than me and the other half called me cheater and other names which i shall not mention here they just seem to be bad losers yet other nations are fine its a shame :(
 
Yep, I find that many americans on live can be pretty annoying, especially when they hear you're from the UK.
'Awight mate, down the apples and pears' or some other 'hilarity' :rolleyes:
Of course if someone quits early you could leave negative feedback, but due to the way the system works you're just as likely to receive it back for 'revenge'.
Shame.

That 100% sums it up :)

PGR3 cat & mouse last night, American Kid comes in, takes a c class car then spends 10 mins talking about his amazing cadillac roadblock...which everyone drives by apart from me, as i go to drive past him he reverses taking me (his teammate) out! lol :(
 
I rarely play open parties or in matchmakeing. I learnt a long time ago that randoms are 99% *******

There are enough people on OcUK to play against and I am yet to encounter anyone I disliked from these fine forums.
 
I've had 3 negatives. All from Americans, all because I happened to kill them. One of them left neg for me quitting early, even thou he was the one that quit. Hmmmmm

It's one of the reasons why I don't like it when the online achievements have to be in ranked games. Since playing with randoms really puts me off games. I'd much prefer to play with people I know and have a good laugh whilst doing so.
 
This is why I only play online with friends. Nothing worse than a loud obnoxious sore loser! Really noticed this when I use to play Halo 2 on Xbox Live
The whole feedback thing too is pretty damn pointless! As robbiemc says, they just leave bad feedback for you too :mad:
 
Some people online are just plain weird! But I have encountered a few decent guys online some of which were american. On the whole though most people on live are annoying! I try to stick to playing friends.
 
I remember one night playing PGR2 on Live and I didn't know anyone in the race. Myself and 3 other guys, who are from UK, started chatting and we got on really well. Rest of the guys on there were of course Yanks and didn't like it so they started trying to take the **** out of us and just spoiling the game by running us into barriers. It was totally childish and we just laughed it off.
I'm still friends with the guys I met from that night and we play together quite a bit (PGR3, COD, GOW etc). Just shows that you can actually find some decent people on there who you can have a good laugh with.

I haven't had any problems with Americans. But more so with people from the UK, totally rude and racist.


Yup same here, i love the Americans and Canadians..probably due to the fact that they can tell from my accent that im one of them so to speak.

But put it this way, they arent too keen on the british themselves..find you quite rude, irritating and childish and i cant say i dont disagree with them....other than the brits on my friends list...they all ok so far:p

If you can't say you don't disagree with them does that mean you do disagree with them, and in that case, all Brits are just fine and dandy and it's the Yanks who are obnoxious, rude and ignorant? :D

Even where they're completely crap (like me)? Doesn't that get on your nerves? :p

Depends. If it is ranked (Halo2) I can get a little wound up, if someone is on my team is contributing to the other team more than our team.
However in friendly matches I ususally don't mind, too much, and if I know you are new then you cant be blaimed for that. Everyone needs to start somewhere.
I will shout at the people that should know better though (anyone I play with regularly)
