Try playing DOA4 online, I dare you.
They included a ranking system based on gaining points for how many games you win/lose, how tough your opponent is or how big your winning streak is. You start off as rank C and can go from S to F.
Excellent idea in theory, you get to play similarly skilled people by choosing your room and everything's grand. This has been let down by the fact that if you disconnect then you don't lose any points and your opponent doesn't gain any. You wouldn't even lose your streak.
Picture it, you're just stating out an you've been losing mostly but getting better. You're fighting and A rank and you win the first round. Your just about to win the second and "blah blah has left the game".

So frustrating.

Yeah, that bugs me, where your own damn team has people whining 'omg you all suck' or 'this team is f-ing useless' not seeming to realise they're on the team they're abusing, and I do believe somewhat in morale, and that if you're getting told you should just quit because you are worthless, your skill is going drop for a while.

I seem to be the only one going 'wd guys, nearly got it, keep pushing!', although its gratifying to see on many PC TF2 servers that following a hard fought round, you'll see 'gg all', if red won, they'll be saying 'gg anyway blue', stuff like that, its rare to see 'LOZ U GOT PWND BITCHEZ ROLF'

myCpUaMnts is my gamertag.

That's just.... wow. Classy.

 

[TheDean]

not on PS3.... no one gives a crap.

WOW! You can play online on PS3? Come to think of that...WOW, there are games on the blu-ray player?

 

[insectoid]

This is one of the reasons I barely play online anymore...good to see so many people offering help though

*edit*
Well, that and the amount of weird comments I get if I ever talk into a mic and people figure out I'm a girl...

 

[Copter400]

not on PS3.... no one gives a crap.

Maybe because it's so expensive barely anyone can afford oneOH! BURN! COPTER'S SMOKING ALL COMERS!

 

[Raynaux]

I would but I no longer have a 360, I would be able to help you in gears.... was probably one of the only games I was semi-decent at xD

 

[Tannhausyr]

what's up with all the fanboy-ism? it is [b/] just a console.[/b] there's no need to reduce this forum to immature fantasies of a 16yr old. just help the guy, rather than use his thread to have a go at other gamers.

Anyway to the op - try hosting your own game so you can walk around the maps to find out what they are like and where all the hiding spots are. other than practicing a lot, you could also try looking up techniques on the internet.
good luck with your gaming.

If my 360 was hooked up to XBL I'd gladly join you, since I want to play TF2 and I'm scared of all the elitist bastards everyone talks about. If I can be arsed to drag the white brick downstairs and get it hooked up to t'internet my GamerTag is DeathTrousers.

 

[Ancalagon]

I completely suck, but I suck on the PC at the moment, mainly on TF2. As soon as I've psychologically prepared myself to bend over and pay 60 quid for a wireless adapter for my 360, I'll start sucking on that, too.

On the PC, I started playing the mod Age of Chivalry. It's a melee FPS, and can be bloody difficult. Especially since it's a mod, so there's a way of learning how far away you need to be to connect perfectly with the hitbox. A kindly man took me into a server, and, like Morpheus to neo, we trained. On the walls of Helm's Deep.

I'm going to go play AoC. It's sweet.

Also, if anyone wants to add me feel free. Gamertag in my profile.

Damn Right, On PS3 Nobody Has A Mike So We Dont Really Care + No Screaming 12 Year Olds

 

[Reaperman Wompa]

Did anyone else find the title of the thread funny?

No?...I feel like an idiot now...
