I like having fun, and fun is what I get.

People are always talking about lag and dedicated servers and blah, blah, blah...I've never had a problem with my xbox live services and enjoy the games I have. As long as I can have fun, its all good
See, that is the perfect 'I don't understand people, I reckon they are just stupid and I only care about myself' statement. And as long as people don't give a fuck about other people, there will always be flame wars.

You should try and get an understanding why gamers are pissed instead of blowing it of.

1. "I don't understand people, I reckon they are just stupid and I only care about myself" I fail to see how you found this out from my post, as I was referencing my gaming experiences. I have not had lag, I do not know the difference between dedicated servers and what we have now (in MW2). I do not notice a difference because I have NEVER experienced lag on XBL and DO NOT notice a difference between these two servers so why would I comment on a subject I am ignorant in? The point I was trying to make, is that as long as I can still have fun with my games i don't mind the changes. I never talked about anyones intelligence or that I only care about myself.

2. "And as long as people don't give a fuck about other people, there will always be flame wars." So by stating that I would like to keep having fun you assume I "...don't give a fuck about other people" Or were you focusing on a different part of my post with this? I am very confused with how you founded this opinion.

3. "You should try and get an understanding why gamers are pissed instead of blowing it off" I would on subjects that affect me but I do not notice any changes so why would I fight for changes in something that I DON'T NOTICE?

Please refrain from making such comments about my person. There are much more polite methods you could use instead of making such brash accusations against me

We can if we want to.
Can you.... Rub you stomach and pat your head at the same time?
Yep! (Just tried it.)
I envy you......
Years of practice, buddy. I've been playing many musical instruments for most of my life, so I'm used to having my hands doing two different things at once.

I agree, as long as you have fun, why make an issue out of it?
Personally I barely experience lag and I have never thought to my self 'gee, this game would be SO much better if there were another 24 guys I could shoot in the face.' 9 vs 9 is large enough for me, the only thing that would make 32 vs 32 matches worth the trouble is clan matches, but since I have yet to encounter a game I consider good enough to join a clan, I don't care about clan matches.


He just said 'I am happy with what I have.'
how do you turn that into 'I don't give a fuck about other people.'?

can i play Assassins creed on the couch? yeah easily.

move my pc near my couch, connect my PC up to my HDTV, load the game... get my wireless mouse and keyboard... i'm on a couch on PC.

Can you console gamers play Assassins Creed with Altiir sporting a all black outfit and blood red blades? how about him in a Templar cloak? or maybe with a red leather hood?

as a PC gamer i can.

I play consels because I LIKE them.I hate mods.Mods just ruin a good game by making it a unfair game for players.And for the players,thats all i need.the maps are more fast paced because they are desighned to only hold 16-20 people making it so your not always looking for people.

Also,the prices for online is resonably good.We get free updates,addons not costing as much,and a kickass online play.and because it is P2P,i dont need to worry about modding,unlike TF2 360 online(stop making turrets fly for god sakes!).

Bottom line is,if you dont like what consel players like,stop playing them and go back to your modding and unfair games that srew you every five second and stop critising it because you just dont like it.

Should you be prevented from doing so if you like? Being able to do what you feel like is a good thing. Some people might like having crazy costumes for their characters. There doesn't need to be a complicated reason.

You said "people are always talking lag and dedicated servers and blah, blah, blah" did you not. That means you don't know why people are complaining and don't have a flipping clue why people miss dedicated servers and blah blah blah!

So forget any issue and have fun, because completely missing the point why people are annoyed means you don't give a flying fuck. Yes, I believe you should educate yourself on the matter instead of just leaving a post that you have no idea what is going on.
