Just curious. If you even play CoD you get people down your throat (yes, some CoD people are idiots, but no all of them) Minecraft has hate (and I know a ton of people from MC play TF2) so whats the reasoning?
 
Every game has hate....

It is like music. There is no such thing as a good song. What you might call a good song, i might call a terrible song. Most people who like rap hate listening to country. It is just people voicing their opinions.

Same thing with games. Every game is different. Just because we like TF2 doesn't mean CoD players have to.

I think it has more to do with the player base for games. Some games are more popular amongst younger gamers, such as COD. All games will have children, but some seem to have more, especially on consoles. Hate might perhaps be a strong word. Dislike would be more appropriate. Older gamers get annoyed when younger gamers feel the need to describe every little action they do in the game. Like when they announce what gun they are using, or the all annoying "look at me guys". Maturity has very little to do with being annoying. Adults can be just as annoying, but I don't see it as frequently as the kids.
 
imo, Modern Warfare was when CoD jumped the shark. coincidentally, the younger kids never played any of the CoD games before it
 
I try to be nice, sometimes so nice that I trust people too much.
In Minecraft, I had helped a new person by giving him some free gear to help start out, he griefed half the server after that, when that got sorted out, I became a little xenophobic.
On TF2, people have told me to go kill myself just because of the weapons I used to use.

Reactions: Fire Mage
Most people don't consider the other side they're playing with. They think of it as a lifeless machine, in no way real or having any emotion or feelings. In conquest for trying to be the best, or win the game, they become so aggravated with players with lesser skill or different playing style that they simply won't tolerate it.

Know it or not, people are invested in the games they play. They believe that because of the time a person has put in they should be entitled to to an advantage. It's also the exact opposite where people have no time invested and seek to ruin the good time of other players. People generally feed off the misery of others. Why do you think theres so much trash TV, or celebrity gossip, or videos in which people get hurt or ridiculed go so high? It makes us feel better about ourselves. It makes us glad to not be that guy and happier with our own lives. Or its empowering to them to get attention or cause a reaction. Odds are they don't receive enough attention in their real lives and mill around the internet seeking for something or someone.

My advice: Fuck em. Find mature people to play with who are secure with themselves. Find people who don't need to win to feel satisfaction when the odds are against them. Find people that you can befriend and play with them. Its a process and its time consuming, but like most things in life good things usually are.
 
Minecraft and COD, for the most part, are communities full of pre-pubecents who dont know how to count to 53. I know a few cool people who did infact play minecraft, I did as well, but only single player, because it was a really neat concept in alpha stage, then it just got boring and complicated. Cod is just, well ill leave this here;
le 360 noscope lolol newb
 
"Le" makes everything fancier. Except the word "newb".
not sure if new to internet or just stupid.

Using the word le if you're not french, or don't speak it, just means you obviously scower around the depths of 9fag and feel the need to use it at the beginning of every sentence.
