What "pro" gaming behavior ticks you off?

[Puzzles]

The bunny hop in Counter Strike. Because I never got it working, even with instructions.

 

[WaywardHaymaker]

That goddamn high-and-mighty attitude towards K/D and rank.

 

[muckinscavitch]

Oh the joys of the sudden bawls everyone grows the second the are nicely hidden behind an artificial character and a screen. I'd love to see 99.999999% of these people actually smack talk and stuff in real life; would be funny just to watch their teeth get kicked in.

 

[Meberem]

Gloating, i am by no means a sore looser nor am i an excelent player (FPS i assume were talking about here) so i understand that i will die and loose to better player, infact if i didn't i would be over the moon. But if they beat you and then proceed to rub it in your face because i am not as good at them really pisses me off. When it is also by the smallest ammount it makes me wish i could invent a way to punch people through their headphones

 

[Skizle]

"What video card do you have?"
"Oh its garbage compared to mine, mine has (incert GPU performance bragging here)."
"Ya if you don't have anything close to this then your a scrub."
"Don't talk to me you scrub!"

Oh and spawn camping is a classic one.

 

[TheTaco007]

People who intentionally go against any suggestion I make (mostly happens on Halo)because they apparantly are so much better than me and my tactics are stupid, when I have twice as many kills as them.

 

[Filtertip]

Had to deal with a lot of these admining ED.

Worst i had to deal with was the "pr0" players whining because the other team could rearange there match to the day they want because there playing a match in another league or whining because they din't like (which really meens never played) the map chosen for the week.

Then ofc IF i so deared to try and imporve things for these people id get the not so pr0 teams whining for not completly 100% looking after the CORE userbase.

 

[FrndlyMisanthrpe]

I'll just contribute with how much I like how most of the people out there using the word "noob" does not actually know what it means.


Remember back when "noob" meant "newbie"?
Those were the days.

Thank you. You're freaking brilliant.

 

[Rainboq]

Really, most of these complaints are more about noobs than pros. Teabagging, for instance, is a complete noob move. Pros shouldn't do crap like that.

I'm not a professional gamer (meaning I don't make money from playing) but I have a professional attitude about how the game should be played. My main annoyance is when people refuse to talk when playing a strategic team game, or when they don't have a mic. Especially when people who take the game seriously do this: if you're not going to communicate with your team, don't get mad later because it didn't go well. The team that talks the most wins the most.

And if the person's mic is broken or if they can't afford one? Then what? Do you instantly hate them for either something they can't control or can't do?

 

[Kuchinawa212]

The ones that scream at you if you take the shotgun or hell, just don't do what they say. It's a game, calm down buddy

 

[Filtertip]

People who class particular weapons/tactics as not allowed and class them as bad as hacking.

How is using a sniper rifle other than the scout in counter strike the same as hacking???

play Counter strike in a league style match and you will see using a sniper rifle other then the AWP is "n00bish" because the auto keeps firing and the scout is week shoot. while both are true and i sure know id rather have the AWP if a diffrent type of sniper works better for you why not just stick with it.

 

[TheEvilJester]

Ok I just have to say this, but that whole tiers thing in any game where you can choose your own stuff. I played MW2 for the first time and I chose a certain gun, I accidentally owned my brother and he started barking at me for using a cheap tier gun. Then Pokemon, ooh Pokemon. I am not allowed to use x amount of item y. And those are the things that make me better, and those items end up being some weird "uber items", and that uber concept also goes for the choice of pokemon and the characters in SSBB. I am not allowed to use Sonic because his final smash is cheap even though the developers made it like that for me to play with.

I use that developer reason for any kind of tier argument.

 

[asdasdasdasda]

The ones play PURELY to win when the rest of us are playing for fun.

I play to win, because winning is fun.

True, but would you rather win or have fun?

That depends on who I'm playing with.

 

[Jark212]

Spawnkilling. That's it for me.

This one is the only real thing that ticks me off, campers are fun (I'm guilty of this)...

 

[LewsTherin]

When they research all possible builds/strategies/etc. for hours before even picking up a game, then coming in with a fixed schedule and expecting you to follow it to the letter, or else you're a "tard".

Expecting you to know every facet of a game at first try.

When having fun is for "n00bs"

 

[Wayte]

Spawnkilling. That's it for me.

This one is the only real thing that ticks me off, campers are fun (I'm guilty of this)...

Campers are easy. They get maybe 2 free kills, then you can just fill their hole with grenades and make them cry.

 

[Canadaftw]

Sniper rifle hogging.

 

[Takoto]

The kind of "pro" who goes on about how amazing they are, and shoves it in everyones faces.

 

[Amnestic]

The kind of "pro" who goes on about how amazing they are, and shoves it in everyones faces.

It's not my fault I'm charming, pretty, intelligent, witty, musically gifted, have excellent athletic ability and disarmingly modest.

I'm just better than you.

No I'm not serious. Or am I?

 

[escapist_wolfand]

"I'm so good, i'm so awesome, everyone fucking sux compares to me, i own you all, i'm better, i'm better!"
and when dies
"WHAT THE FUCK, YOU FUCKING CHEATED! YOU DIDN'T WIN, YOU CHEATED!!!"
....
