Online with Tweens

[EVILCAKE]

So I bought Day of Defeat and then they came out with Day of Defeat source which is a really nice playing game. Can someone tell me why there has to be some kid that sounds like he's talking through his nose and needs to give everyone commands? I tried a few times to say "hey kid shut the f up and...bloot I'm banned :/ And then there are the times when I'm playing and it's all retarded little kids that TK (team kill) each other...fn annoying to say the least.

I've played a fair bit of DoD:S and as far as I've seen there is far more teamwork and far more mature players than similar games.

But if you do get annoyed by people, I believe you can mute other players by right clicking on the score board or something.

Hey Metal, it's Fartinmowler...Ya sometimes the team play can be great. I didn't know I could mute them thanks. It's not only DOD, I gave up playing Halo because of teens.

the worst thing about voices in online gamingis that you can be subject to playground jokes again. take this example when i played COD2 on the 360

(i join game, only two other players playing)
kid (gauging by voice):hi
me: hi
kid: hey are you in the FBI or the MBI?
me: whats the MBI?
kid: just answer the question: yes or no?
me: 'yes or no' to 'am i in FBI or MBI?'
kid:..........just say MBI or FBI
me: (sigh, getting bored) ok..i am in the 'MBI'
kid: hahahaha you are a male body inspector (leaves game)

a few seconds later i got a garbled voice message saying something like "hahaha you have ADD hahaha"

i thought this kind of crap ended when you turned 9 years old. saying that, not all xbox live encounters with tweens are that bad, had a great game of doom3 co-op with some canadian kid the other day (except he screamed far too much when the cherubs appear)

i wish you could make games 18+ on xbla.....

[the_dudefather]

as much as im looking forward to the release of saints row, why do i have the feeling that the multiplayer is going to be a magnet for gangsta kids....

(incedently the other experience i had with doom 3 co-op was some teenager who felt the need to exclaim that he 'raped dat bitch' after each and every kill he made)

The kids that use voice masking are the worst.

And a friend of mine determined that Saints Row was made especially for average white suburban kids, and after playing the demo, I can say that it's an overly "ghetto" game that is going to rely on that particular demographic for sales.
