Angry Gamers

[Jenova65]

All gamers have experienced WTF moments when you are totally in the zone and the game hates it and kicks your ass impossibly! But there is never a need to shout, try again or turn it off and try later is attitude!
I get stressed when people get angry with games cos, you know...... It's. A. Game.

i only have rage when I dont get a chance. If i am continously being spawn killed, I have rage. LOTS OF RAGE.

ditto
(am I the only one who says that ???)

No, Patrick Swayze says it in 'Ghost'! ;-)

Sometimes, if I have been trying really hard for ages and I die I will say something like "God damnit!" or "Shits and Pancakes!" but not very loud.

Lag is the only thing that can induce this sort of rage, hell i dont even yell like that when i am genuinely angry. So i feel its a healthy release of anger for me.

But yea, getting killed in MW2 or Halo 3 despite putting enough bullets into the opponent to arm a platoon is quite frustrating and frequent. Even worse when its a normal game, but then a American joins and gets the connection and lags the shit outta the rest of the game.

I get stressed quite a bit in online matches, usually when I'm getting my arse kicked or every time theres a damn re-spawn timer, after I while i just shutup adn start thinking 'shutup, don't stress, concentrate and have fun!'. Usually after that I'm hitting 1st, 2nd, or 3rd place on the leaderboards which seams to annyoy other people when suddenly they find they are getting their arse handed too them by the lowest scorer (racer, etc) in the match.

I get frustrated and squeeze the control, but as of late i've been trying to keep a calm head.

I only get angry at a game when I can't find something, Repetitively die at a certain point and so on, which I think most people get anyway.. But I get insanely furious online, such as MW2 multiplayer, like when I'm head on with an enemy player, and I don't pull my gun out in time, or when I run into someone on the stairs, and instead of using my knife I get hacked to pieces. However all my online rage isn't directed at the game, just my lack of skill or slow reaction time.

I get angry on MW2 when I die to campers or tubers. I'm on some gnarly streak and tearing it up when some douchebag with a grenade launcher spoils my day. Uncool.

I think my favorite and recent moment of my gamer rage was when I was playing the Silent Fear (I think that was the name of it) map on L4D. I wander throughout the entire map, and only when I had checked out everyplace had I figured out what to do, which was find all the symbols, and activate them.
It took me half an hour to figure this out.
Needless to say, I promptly said "FUCK THIS!" and jumped off this:

You could ask the two or three broken Playstation 2 controllers about whether I get angry at games or not. That was back in the day though.

Nowadays I can still get pretty pissed at a game, particularly in online games, especially the Call of Duty games. But I feel secure in the knowledge that I'm not the same angry hate-child I used to be. My keyboards and Xbox controllers are all still intact.

I'm not Raging Dave for nothing. I get really angry at everything, not just games.

Two to three? Wow, I got through like 10 of those.

 

[SonicSoulstrike96]

Angry gamer? Nah, only when people cheat by using mods or just spawn camp, either way, I just leave the match and find others to play with.

Oh and if it counts, I'm a gamer angry at nintendo for making games easy for toddlers. Yay nintendo!

 

[MiracleOfSound]

Shamefully, yes, I rage and shout at my TV when things are not going well.

My flatmates think I'm a demented psycopath.

No prizes for guessing which game makes me rage the most...

 

[SantoUno]

I used to get extremely angry when I was younger, but not anymore. I still get annoyed and a little angry but I don't throw a tantrum like I used to.

 

[DazZ.]

Yes I get very angry, over nothing.
"For fuck sake!" is the most common thing to hear passing my room, not that you need to pass my room to hear it.

Only get angry at games though, anything else in my life I'm completely apathetic about.
