Ok, to start off, I am Effilctar aka g3n3r4l WTF, and I am terrible at FPS online multiplayer. in all of possibly 9 hours of playing Modern warfare 2, I'm only level 21 and got my first harrier strike approximately 20 minutes ago. I admit, I am bad at FPS's, and what gets on my nerves even more than arrogant good players, is bad players who will blame anyone but themselves, often blaming their team or lag.
An example would be playing CTF today, I met a lvl 30-something, whatever prestige he was, who at the end of the game had 9 kills and 20 deaths. The first thing he did was blame his team for his lack of kills, claiming that he plays good if he is with a good team.
Now, sorry, but I always thought that a player's skill made them good at a game, not the people they play with, and if you do need a team to help you play good then you're not a very good player, are you?
Have my fellow Escapians had similar experiences?
