I am in no way a sore loser. I can take it all night long. Doesn't bother me a bit. I pride myself on my fair gameplay, win or lose. I have a great reputation online because of this. I do agree that the person clipping you is losing time and bullets, making them more vulnerable. It still just burns me to be clipped. It us unneccesary taunting, and just plain disrespectful. For those of you that play other shooters, you have been in my shoes, regardess of the game played. I am not writing this because I am the last guy on the scoreboard in kills, or because I got taken out. Rather, I am just annoyed with people who play in a way that aggravates everyone else out there.
So I am playing in this room, probably about 10 seperate matches. Good matches, usually close for both teams. Our team wins some, we lose some. This guy clips me every game for the entire time but I don't say anything, figuring it will only make it worse. Maybe try and be the nice guy and prove that fair play always prevails. Finally, I get sick of it, and while in the lobby I ask him why he continually does it. Then he starts in with his mouth. I don't stoop to his level, but tell him that gamers like him make it bad for everyone. His mouth continues to run incessantly, you can imagine what he is saying. I left the room and found another, but it showed me why some people who have never played in an online match get frustrated with LIVE and don't give a game a fair chance. There is always that loser who ruins it for people. Don't get me wrong, I am not going to stop playing GRAW 2, but it shows what kind of people we all end up playing at some point. Do they have low self esteem, and do it to make themselves feel better? Are they the kind of person that is afraid to stand up for themselves in real life and live in a fantasy world of toughness online? That is my guess, a serious lack of confidence. Just play the game, be sportsmanlike, and don't ruin it for people. Quit picking on your dog and torturing your cat. Go to a psychiatrist and get some skills on gaining much needed insight into your problems. If you choose not to do these things, simply shut your mouth and play fair.
I am sure this has been brought up before, but I just need to vent. I cannot stand the people that empty their clip into you after you have been eliminated. I play GRAW 2, and for the most part people are pretty fair. Every once in a while you run into that one jerk that ALWAYS clips you. I am a good player and don't care when I lose, I just hate poor sports or people that need to boost their ego by dumping rounds into you for no reason. XBOX Live is a great service, but I occasionally get angry with the immature players you run into. It makes you want to not venture out from your established friends list, and be wary of newcomers. Maybe it is just me, no big deal. This is probably minor compared to the racist and cheating behaviors, but still is a huge annoyance for me.
I had problems getting on line when I initially started also. Being that I am not very computer savy, I called 1-800-4MY-XBOX and they walked me through the entire process and trouble shot for me. They worked it out and were terrific. I believe I was stuck at the same spot as him, but it was five years ago. I suggest he call them. Excellent customer service and assistance.
I have not had any problems at all. I would assume that it is your local IP. Don't give up on your 360, give it some time and your issue will be resolved.
