They design multiplayer games to be annoying and negative experiences now, right?

You’re supposed to lose most games because it keeps you online the most and getting into impulsive angry mind sets and buying skins/loot boxes etc?

The same way social media is designed to upset you to keep you on it, games do this now - that’s my intuition and I assume it’s correct.

Why is everything so fucking irritating and negative now? Too many pedophiles like Eric Hildeman just passively accepting the degradation of society ya ask me.

I've been playing uno mobile lately and I gotta tell you this game is fuckin rigged bullshit. Almost as bad as pokerstars



I lost thousands of dollars on poker sites, everyone said it was paranoia / delusion believing in it being rigged but then it came out they were actively cheating, the owners had god mode to read other hands and fucked Viktor Blom out of millions iirc.

Stop buying AAA titles and start buying Indy games, they are passion products mostly. I'm sorry if you're a console fag though then you deserve it.

Git good. Learn the maps, learn how other players behave.

What game specifically are we talking about here? I love keeping track of all the "meant for a 10-year-old" games you have.

R6 siege, where I’ve played since launch and my average ELO is about 4000 with a 1.5KD in ranked with 5000 ranked games.

Halo infinite where my Elo is about 1600 with a 1.4KD and 1k games.

I’m not bad and it’s nothing to do with my skill, you are designed to get shit team mates and lose games unless you 5 stack and exploit it and win every match.

I've always wanted to try that game but the forced teambased aspect puts me off, especially since it's teams of 5. I played Apex for years and just having to deal with two other shitheads was bad enough. Can't imagine having to deal with 4 other people, especially in a game that looks so tactical like R6.

It’s so insufferable, games have pre determined winners and it achieves it through team balancing, sometimes you get free wins and realise some other poor slob on the other team is being fucked over with the retards.

If you don’t notice it happening, it’s because your one of the shitbag players.

Apex was just as bad tbh. They have this gay thing called EOMM (Experience Optimized Matchmaking) that means if you have a couple of shitty games with no kills, it'll throw you in a noob lobby just to make you feel better for a little while. Then when you've won a few it'll throw you right back in with sweats.

Like you said, most online games are just designed to keep you hooked and frustrated these days. That's why I don't bother with anything teambased now. I was enjoying Warzone 2 playing solo but the dumbfucks have seemingly removed that mode for good now.

Data analysis led to this. Games like that aren't meant to be fun for the players; they're meant to generate income for the company. Pissing people off by rigging matches generates more money. Psychologists and data scientists have been working on this for years and have it down to a science. The solution is to play games on private servers but you'd have to go back 20 years for anything like that.

Games track so much shit now that people play the most 'optimal' way instead of just trying to have fun. Back in halo 2 days when you played an unranked game people would just fuck about and have fun because it really didnt have any consequences. Your k/d was not displayed on your profile.
