Why do you rage quit?

[MercurySteam]

It's quite simple - playing online team games is like driving; you have to assume nobody else knows what the fuck they're doing.

Either when it's laggy (red bar), or I'm going so badly negative I'm not benefiting my team.

Unless my friends are in the game also. I'll just do what they do.

I dont. If you have to rage quit because your losing, you either shouldnt be playing, or you need to stop taking it so seriously. Excluding spawn campers. If you run into spawn campers, thats perfectly fine. Theyre a pain in the dick.

 

[Nemu]

Honestly?

The only things that would me rage quit would be if I was running out of playing time, and felt said time was being wasted or if I needed to use the lavatory.

Otherwise, I'll tolerate most things--even encourage aggravating behavior, if I felt it would piss off the player who was pissing me off (typically that only happens when I'm tired and cranky and want to go to bed, tho).

Only when I see someone exploiting a glitch in the game---but not even usually that; I glitch back.

I never rage quit. I always make sure to calp down before closing the game so its technically not a rage quit!

But seriously, if you mean changing servers, that's not rage quitting to me. Quitting a match before its over in a game where you accumulate player points, that's rage quitting and I try to never do that.

I don't play online but I tell you Mirrors Edge has made me quit before I hammered my system to death many times.

Normally don't see it as "rage" but seriously if I have someone cheating, using exploites...or spawn camping for no real reason -see red dead redemption- and just being a jackass I'll leave,
I always find it funny when someone goes "haha rage quit." nah some of us just leave to play with the real players trying to have more fun. And if being a dick to others is the only fun you have and defense for what I just said...well there you go.

But same time I limit myself to areas where that behavior is expected...unless I feel like just being a dick to everyone I meet...then any insults or rage from others is deserved and expected. But I won't candy coat it like some other losers. I know and admit when I'm being a dick to make myself feel better.

Pyro spawn camping in TF2. Nuff said.

No. Any semi conscious player can break through that. Its camping demos. If you cant kill a pyro then you just suck.

Shut up troll. It's just obnoxious when you get lit on fire right off the bat.

Have you ever heard of something we call "Heavy"?

When I stop having fun.
Simple as.

 

[Vianyte]

I don't.

It is a game and merely a game. I can get annoyed but nothing is achieved when you get angry.

 

[I Resurection I]

Usually because of some bullshit tactic, like spawn camping, or aim hacking. But most of the time it's because I'm doing absolutely terrible.

Edit:

If I'm playing with friends than I never rage quit, I also find it harder to do terrible when playing with friends.

 

[Corpse XxX]

I extremely rarely rage quit, and if i in fact do, it is because of spawn rape..

Never rage quit cause of loosing a fight, but if im getting owned continously.. I will do all in my power to at least getting a couple a revenge kills even if it means doing "dirty" tactics such as changing class in TF2 to for instance spy just to get a flocking sniper revenge kill.. Since i usually play heavy.

 

[Dexiro]

I usually don't rage quit. Normally, I just say, "Fuck it." and go play another game or do something else.

I thought that's what rage quitting was.

I just give up if the game stops being fun and feels unfair. There's a lot of occasions where i feel like a games purposefully fucking me over with random events, if a game's doing that i'd rather just not deal with it.
