(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); This thread is simply my way of trying to figure out what sparked this new phenomenon on Black Ops 2...The game has been out eight or so months now and I imagine we all have some fatigue with the game and/or are tired of going full in or being, "tryhards" aka just playing to win and dominate and most importantly having fun...

I haven't played BO2 frequently since April of this year but when I do get on once or twice a week I see a HUGE number of trolls. Let me explain trolls to me are the opposite of tryhards. Guys who literally just come into Ground War aka TEAM BASED MATCHES and just dick around trying to Quick Scope, use pistols only, Assault shield, ballistic knife Onlyusemeblade wannabes and of course still a lot of those LMG with or without Target Finder noobs just spraying til bullets make contact with someone with 10% accuracy or less lol. These guys are happy with 5 kills probably and ignore their deaths as well as objectives unless it's stealing your tag in KC.

What's up with all the trolling though? I mean quick scopers and some of you other trolls aren't necessarily hard to stop but it makes playing in a party even more important. Who the hell wants to play in a Kill Confirm match where your team consists these knife only guys who are stealing all your tags(and immediately dying) or a Domination match where a guy is more concern with getting quick scope clips than helping you capture/defend a flag? Oh and of course we know your average quick scoper goes 10-25 at worst and 30-36 with zero flag caps at best.

I have begun using more Assault Rifles when I play now or just running Stealth, Escort and EMP as my scorestreaks as a way to spice up the game when I play...I just don't get why so many people have begun to just be THAT guy trying to quick scope or using pistols only getting totally owned...

Oh and I know some people can actually play well quick scoping or using pistols but come on let's be honest we know how terrible those guys usually are, just like how you know a splitscreen team is two wasted spots

Sadly thats been in online gaming for a long long time lol, where people care more about killing / kdr then the actual mission.

Clan battles is where its at, if you want a proper and d*mn good game

But simply everyone plays the game how they like the game? Some people only get a lil time on the machine, and would rather play around with quick scopes then kill people during that time.

I find myself leaving more and more games because of these trolls. For example, I go into a search and destroy game in which my whole team sits in the back with snipers. They end up all getting killed without even killing one enemy. I don't endorse rage quitting but I refuse to play with people that ruin the game for me.

typical call of duty just full of little kids thinking its cool because they see one or two youtubers doing it

I usually use pistols only since the game lost it's atmosphere to me and i want to spice it up a bit, but i do pretty good Q_Q

People still play call of duty?

Some people enjoy Their time on the gaming console whether it be Xbox or PS3 to just play around. Not all people have 6-12 hours to play a game because there are usually children on the consoles. But even so, when these children are on these COD, BF, and Other M rated games playing around some just play the game for fun. That is the reason the game was made for right? Entertainment! These kids may enjoy Quick scoping, Pistol Only, Knife Only, or Running around on Once IN the Chamber. But you cannot ho[p on their case just for them doing what they enjoy. Just like you wouldn't want someone to ruin your fun. We were all children once and you need to look at the odds of what you used to do when you were a kid and what these new generation of kids are doing now. I can tell you i used to joke around and stuff like that but there was also a time where i needed to do what was right and be serious. So the point im trying to make in this long ass paragraph is; "Live your life the way you want, but leave others life the way they like it"

Trying to have fun at the end of the day
People can play the game how they like sadly no matter how annoying it can be to you. Pistols only players I enjoy playing against not your average player is willing to do that.

I got bored of playing public matches and I'm currently doing this League play season, and its so much better than pubs as its a challenge.
I'm currently 5th in my Masters Division and its so good when you win against a really good team!

I just find public matches easy and boring, mix it up and try league play.

Couple weeks ago I got bored and started doing League with few friends, League is actually quite fun when trying to achieve best ranking and beating good teams. I hate getting -150 when a lost and win a game +10
