well i can kinda agree, its just that i get fed up with the "one-uppers, the know-it-alls, loud mouths", and with the people that think they can just talk trash to anyone,, it really shows the communities intelligence when they open their mouths and spat out all this bs.... who think they are always right. and clutter up the mic channels with screaming and derrogatory comments, thats what is killing the online community.. but atleast you can mute some of these clowns. but they will get what is comming to them one day... maybe they will open their mouth to the wrong person not online. and get the living crap beat out of them... or maybe something else... thier favorite lines of course are to tell people to get a life... ha when they are so insecure of their own to begin with.

yeah only temprorarily then these clowns will flood those servers with their bs... just like cod4 it was great at first now everyone thinks their the best at it, and everyone makes excuses why they didnt win. and complain about something when they get their butts whooped, and always have some stupid derrogatory comment to make, and by the way ive had LIVE since it first launched in end of 2002/beginning of 2003

I think you should try a new game. I got bored with COD4 a few months ago and started playing Halo3 again. I purchased R6V2 last week and have been in multiplayer bliss.

totally agree, hate going online now on most games because i know i will have to site through some guy being racist or another talking about somones mum or something.. its boring. Loving the fact they added the new mute feature in cod4.

Only seem to enjoy online gaming now when its just with the guys from work.

This kid's got it.

And you looking for something different and exciting? Sounds to me like UT3 got a new fan. I cannot wait for that game.

I am in the same boat as you are. I'm getting bored of everything I play and that's probably because I can't afford a new game so I'm stuck playing my old ones which I dislike. Multiplayer for Halo 3 is ugh, and I didn't enjoy COD4 multi. much.

Yup kinda...i cant play for more than 30 an hour at a stretch...i'd rather be playing something like mass effect (which i do alot these days)

the only game i think can make people like me play (the online part) for long hours is probably Unreal Tournament...which sadly isnt on the 360 yet...*sad*

well I guess the novelty of playing with complete strangers has worn off of you. But since I just started playing online in Sept., I think I still have a while left.

Made the lancer more powerful, which added a lot of balance to the multiplayer. It also pissed of shotgun whores because they needed to use strategy now.

I agree, I'm sick of online, all the idioits doing dumb "stuff" and not making the experience fun. Lately I've been playing single players games like Crackdown, Condemned 2, and other sports titles.

Yeah, but mostly because most good games we have with online multiplayer are simply shooters.

Thats half the reason Im so excited over Dragon Ball Z Brst limit.

if you're playing pick-up games with strangers, then yes, I can see why you'd get bored or frustrated.

My suggestion would be to hook up with a good group and just stick to them. Check out the different Unions here on Gamespot.
