HI,

was playing a bit of full auto on XBLIVE recently. I was doing quite good and killing lots of peeps as i set my front machine guns to level 3 :) Everything is going good until the host starts to say: "i'm playing too aggressive, that im cheating as my machine guns are doing to too much damage and that he will report me (whatever this means)". A few minutes later after this is i spammed my front guns and fragged this guy (who was using a warlord may i add) from quite a distance. He made a weird "grrrrrrrring" noise down the mic, which made me chuckle and then he exited the game.

I'm seeing this more and more often and imo it's making it less appealing to play online nowadays. Why can't people just enjoy the game and not take it as a person insult if they get fragged?

thx for listening to my spammy rant :)
 
Ive noticed this more aswell, on the old xbox live nobody used to care about anything but i think its these gamerscore point things.

Play PGR3 online best racer and best bunch of people play with not idiotic immature americans.

I find racing with Irish people on PGR3 is the greatest laugh ive had in ages, there so lively and care free! :)

lol I had that once and got badmouthed for foul play in the game! It's Full Auto for crying out loud, it's no holds barred so anything goes. I racked up win after win in that game because people were too focused on getting kills when I could manage both without a sweat - in a slower car half the time. That pickup rocks! :)

With online gaming you'll always get some little nurdquark who's always a bit too competitive. Most possibly some 14yr old child who thinks he's a 'l33t k3wlio'.

If you gert reported for stupid things like that just make sure you do the same back

Once these noobs start getting low stars they will put up and shut up :p
 
My new pet hate is young americans at 2am our time. Had some muppet yesterday on BF2:MC demo running around screaming "OH YEAH! I'M GONNA SHOOT YOU! YOUR GONNA DIE! THIS GAME RAWKS! WAAAAAAAAAAH! I NEARLY DIED! OMG! DIE DIE DIE! WAAAAAAAAAAAH!"

Just slightly offputting.

I've seen videos of kids doing that. If things don't go their way they go absolutely ballistic. They shouldn't be playing games - they should be in therapy.
 
Was playing the BF2 demo on Live last night. After a few random server disconnects, I got onto what I thought was a semi-decent server when all of a sudden I start seeing some guy TK'ing a lot at the top of the screen. Thought nothing of it at first until I died and respawned at the American base. As soon as I got near the chopper, I was TK'ed by the same guy. Turned out that two of them were ganging the chopper so they could both get in it.

I couldn't honestly believe that stupid players from the PC version seemed to have gotten onto Live too. It's only a matter of time before all the idiots get onto Live and start ruining it as they did the original Live on the Xbox.
 
Just had a thought about this. Think it's safe to assume that everytime theres an XBL 'Free' weekend we'll get a lot more pillocks playing then before. IIRC this weekend is a free XBL Gold weekend so we'll have a lot more XBL online activity too.

Sorry but not being familiar with the game I don't understand what was happening, could you elaborate please?

As for childish online behaviour and people booting you when things don't go the way they want them to that behaviour is not just apparent in games either.

There are multiple bases, each can be captured by any team. Some bases have vehicles, and usually only 2 have aircraft (sometimes only 2 have tanks aswell). Vehicles can be a lot of fun, and some people are obsessed with getting in a vehicle and consider that the ONLY way to play the game.

Two people in this paticular game were 'guarding' their own helicopter (of which there is only 1 for each team, 12 players on each team) by shooting anyone (on their own team) who went near it.

Its very anti-social, and downright rude. TK = Team Kill (shooting your own team).

Soz if this sounds patronising, just trying to be clear for both you and anyone else who may be at a loss about any part :)

Ahh got you. I wasn't familiar with the term TK so assumed you were just sniped or something.
Killing your team mates is pretty low, I have to agree. Then again it sounds like it could be fun, imagine TK'ing wyrdo all night long lol.
J/K mate, thinking of all those PGR3 humiliations .....

'Mute Player' would be a nice feature :)

Its built-in to the Xbox 360 :) You bring up the person's gamercard and then select mute from the blade. I'm constantly muting people on Full Auto cause they have their sound up too high (and therefore loud muffled noises through an entire race) / are a young kid banging on about nothing.
 
Any whinging from people, whether its aimed at me or not, straight after the game they become an avoided player for having a disruptive voice :p I play games for enjoyment and to relax not to hear some tool complaning and throwing his toys out of the pram.

Infact my communicator hasn't even been plugged in for a couple of months because of it.
