It's not like you are getting paid to win or do well. Your "stats" aren't going to help you in any way in life. What even more baffles me is when someone gets called "bad", they take serious offense to it. I mean if someone told me I am bad (which I'm pretty bad), I couldn't give a flying two -blam!-s on it. You guys go as far to criticize your teammates for not being on your level, and then RAGE when your teammates lose the game for you. You guys attack someone for using a certain tactic, and then continue to RAGE in anger. I am pretty sure mosst of you play to escape the many stresses from life, but by playing this game, you are creating even MORE stress for yourself.
So let me ask you the question again....Why do you guys take this game so seriously?
This is a good topic OP, not just applying to reach but everything in life really with how some people act towards others.
People do this in every game not just Reach. Halo 3 it's super bad even to this day. A 5 year old game there are still those that act like they are the best thing in the world, it's quite hilarious and sad all at the same time. I even once had an entire group of people spam my xbox inbox while I was live streaming Halo 3 because I was 'bad' when in reality I was still winning my matches with the best k/d in the match. I said to my viewers "isn't it sad that at 1am on a friday night these losers are spamming the inbox of a player they have never met or play against?" Everyone in my chat started laughing and the spamming stopped right there =) Trolls be gone lol
Some ppl have nothing better to do than troll or have this sort of superiority elitist complex as I like to call it where they think everyone who doesn't play like them, is as good as them, or has a single bad game is terrible at games. Even MLG pros make major mistakes at times yet those elitist never seem to out them in the same category as everyone else. Elitists like that are going to be in anything in life. Not just video games but sports, jobs, cars, brands, you name it. There will always be that group of -blam!-s who think they are the best or have the best of whatever it may be and everyone else is garbage. Basically elitists in video games expect everyone to be MLG pro skilled and if not they get all angry which is total nonsense in unreasonable to expect.
So what to do about them? ignore them and forget about them. They can spout how amazing they think they are but we don't care. I tell the Halo trolls that come in my live stream to shut up or be banned and go stream themselves if they think they are so good. That shuts them up real fast because I don't tolerate idiots who have nothing good to say =)If they think I am so bad then how come they are wasting their time in MY stream telling me to play a different way. They should stream themselves so they can prove to everyone how l33t they are to the world.
I will say that for 99.9% of the people in this world being good at video games doesn't matter in life in terms of monetary value at least. Unless you are MLG pro OR you are a game tester you are most likely not going to make a steady income or be able to use 'skill' in videos games to support a family or life really. Even MLG pros don't earn that much when the game they played is no longer at a tournament. After a few years they have to move on in life and get another job outside of gaming.
As for those that like personal stats tracking, being competitive, and like to win game on! Nothing wrong with wanting to do well all the time. It's only bad when you start saying everyone else is bad and use your 'skill' to judge others that care not about being judged.
Overall people just like to be competitive or compare eachother no matter what it is to an extreme degree. Best thing to do is ban, block, and ignore trash like them. They can spout all they want about how bad you are but really it doesn't mean a thing. They are empty words coming from an insecure child who really does need to get a life lol
