Oh he's being 'That guy'

[True Nero]

i am SOOOOO sick of attracting ego-tastic morons in live games of Halo 3. You are not the best ever, the sniper rifle is not always yours, and teabagging is gay beyond all belief. do all those 13 year old idiots even know what that is? sticking your unmentionables into someones mouth. and i'm always an elite too, that's some sick extra-terrestrial erotica going on...

I don't think I show any "That Guy"-ish traits, really. I do my best to play fairly, be civil, and have fun. I play games for the fun of it, not so I can win. I'm the guy who, when he thinks he's doing too well, throws himself at an enemy and gets killed hilariously. Besides, people don't want to hear about your wins in a game. They want to hear the crazy stuff you pull, and the humiliating deaths that result from it.

That one guy in the group who doesn't do anything. Ever. And when he finally does something, it ends up in a wipe.

That one guy who peon-rushes all the time.

That one guy who type obscenities during the countdown.

That one guy who won't use his medi-kit.

That one guy who is trying to get Akimbo Assassin.

You know who I'm talking about, 'That Guy'. The type of person who jumps onto your BF2 server and has mastered the forbidden art of 'PKM Sniping'. Or you're playing a nice fair game of NHL 09 and he goes straight for the glitch goals.

What are some of the most notorious 'That Guy' things that people do in gaming? Are you one of them?

What is PKM sniping? Notorious "that guy" moments for me are usually on gear 2 with the guys that practice sniping waaaay to much.

What is PKM sniping?

PKM sniping: A PKM is a light machine gun that has a 100 round magazine, EA thought it'd be a good idea to give this weapon an accuracy boost over other LMGs, so much so that this gun can now out snipe the sniper class. To my knowledge, theres been 3 patches since 1.31 and it's still not 100% fixed.

Oh, I've been 'that guy' when I was at a friend's house playing Halo 3 online. We got kinda bored so we just decided to try to get booted over and over by going on team killing sprees...I apologize.

I wonder how many users are taking pointers from this thread..?

Just last night. Marvel Vs. Capcom 2. Using Cable and spamming with projectiles.

Yeah, sure you can win, but it's the most retarded win of all time.

That guy complaining that your team has no Medic when they aren't willing to play Medic

 

[kaiser_what]

Um.. I'm sorry for asking but, what does 'That guy' means anyway? Is it the people who uses glitches to win or jerks who are good at a game?

 

[Azure-Supernova]

That guy who goes on a killing rampage and then screams "DIRTY CAMPING FUCKER" down his headset cause you broke his killstreak on a luck melee attack.... i've played plenty of rounds with these guys, and they all seem to be about 12 years old and very, very sore losers...

 

[Sparrow]

In every FPS known to man, there's always a guy who's a master of those bloody grenades.

That's usually me. Accidentally.

They're the only damn kills I get though.

Guys like that on Team Fortress 2 are quite possibly the most irritating thing in the game, along with premium users who pay to get a ton of advantages.

Also, people who shout at the Medic if he can't heal them at the time.

 

[Diet Chaos]

Anyone and everyone who goes into achievement / idle servers on TF2.

 

[criegel]

my big bro who always goes to the top of the map in halo and shoots anyone caught in the open but you cant get any good weapons so you try to shoot him longranged with a pistol but hes got invisibility and hes crouching so you finaly get off that lucky shot and kill him but he says that you are cheating and kicks you off his Xbox for a month at a time...

It comes from one of the Zero Punctuation reviews. "That Guy" is the guy who's spent so long playing the game that he's impossible to beat (and therefore no fun to play against), or someone who exploits glitches and tries to win at all costs.

Another that guy is the Scout that asks for the Medic to heal them but runs around in circles double jumping all over as if that will get my attention. Then they burn to death because they won't fucking hold still.

Also any person who complains about there being to many of X class when they are playing as X class.

There is a flash game called 1066 about the Norman/Viking invasion of England.

I had some really good multiplayer games in that, and then everyone realised that getting the cheapest troops and then just making them taunt was the easiest way to win gauranteed.

My Norman cavalry were afraid of Peasants with sticks who I had just slaughtered in a charge. My men all ran away from people that posed NO threat at all. WTF.

Also Mario Strikers DK, gauranteed goal from about the middle of the pitch with a white ball.

The Hammer bros are easy to counter after awhile, the boos are more annoying but I like Dry Bones. My cousin tried to get back at me for beating him so many times online that he switched on cheats for alway white ball and always skill shot without me knowing.

Naturally I had two Dry Bones, so his plan backfired and I scored with the Deke about 10 times. =D
