Online Multiplay

Has ruined gaming.

Been wanting to say that for years

Gaming, to me, was either all about completing a difficult game on my own or having my pals round to share and enjoy the experience with me.

Now developers just focus on the online development of new games and the story and almost more importantly the uniqueness of games has been totally neglected. Granted there are a few exceptions.

Also the social aspect has, for me, been ruined. Sitting in a room by yourself with a headset on has to be the most anti-social thing going. No wonder kids today struggle to hold a proper conversation.. There are so many that are socially retàrded for lack of a better word (maybe socially inept is a more appropriations term for those without a thick skin )

This genuinely isn't a WUM before anyone tries to say it is. It's just how I feel. Anyone else agree?

We like to keep the admins on their toes too

Although it's been rather quiet and subdued as of late on our boards, must be a shítstorm on the horizon.. Especially with no football to talk about this summer

i tend to read it everyday also bud i just rarely post on the fitbaw sites. more the boxing f1 and this. The wummers would have me for breakfast the now !!

Aye I usually do the OF boards and the boxing. Totally forgot about the gaming boards but don't play as much as I used to even 5 years ago. Don't mind watching the F1 but wouldn't say I'm a huge fan by any stretch of the imagination.. Will be very surprised if Hamilton doesn't coast it this season.

I thought this thread was about games focusing purely on the multiplayer side/being online multiplayer only. I am not against online play but those games purely online multiplayer i am against because I will always be a single player campaign guy. I want the choice. Just like I choose to skip over any game that scoffs at single player campaigns and only makes multiplayer for online.

There is a gross negligence in taking responsibility for players actions online from video game companies. Its weird having what sounds like an 8 yr old calling you a "n***er lovin' f *ggot" but its even worse when you have people who should know better. The whole anonymous thing allows people to be abusive and at their worst. If gaming companies took some responsibility or even made it a requirement to link a persons facebook/whatever to your gamertag there would likely be less abuse online. Not holding my breath for that though.

Anyway, single player campaigns rock. Split screen multiplayer rocks as well

online multiplayer has made me enjoy computer games in a way that wasnt able to since i was a kid

blaming it for a few aspy knobheads is like blaming this forum for muppets like TCP

I'm not blaming online gaming for díckheads.. There's díckheads everywhere.

I'm blaming online gaming for ruining the quality of gameplay.
