I avoid any pvp online game exactly for this reason. if you open your mouth to call out, you just became a target. it’s so normalized now that I have sworn off multiplayer games altogether unless they’re co-op and I can play specifically with friends.
it really sucks.
“Hardware bans”
lmao, this fucking company.
Well, there is a very easy way to circumvent this… don’t be a dick to others.
What’s their policy when someone buys one of these systems from one of these dickheads?
Easier solution is to not install games that are rootkits run by a shitty company.
What’s their policy when someone buys one of these systems from one of these dickheads?
Most likely their policy is the same as the one Microsoft has for their games and consoles. Microsoft once told me, we’re sorry you purchased a banned console but banned consoles cannot be unblocked, buy a new one next time.
You’re a dick. Ban.
See the problem?
No, I really don’t. Also they probably won’t go full ban hammer over one offense.
Just don’t be a dick? If that’s too hard then maybe playing with others is too hard.
So!!! Much!!! This!!! The blatant racism and transphobia that is endlessly spewed in all multiplayer games is simply disgusting. The racist and transphobic players need to be held accountable. Permaban them, hardware ban them, report them for hate crime. Simple as that.
Reliable enforcement beats harsh punishment, when changing people’s behavior. I tell forum mods to hand out three-day bans like candy. It’s long enough to sting and short enough to shut up and take it.
And seriously - you are game designers. Modifying people’s behavior through expectations is your job. Your power is so immense that charging money inside the game should probably be illegal. Find better tools than a permanent boot in the ass.
“No one needs to grow thicker skin… we’re building a world when everyone can be big blubbering pussies, forever.”
its so annoying to play some multiplayer games because instead of cooperating we get sone kids screaming profanities at you.
