Why would he? You're not exactly the most reasonable and rational poster here.

Actually, there's a thread out there (one of those religioni/god/beliefs) where Kasz gave me valid, true, applicable arguments and I honestly conceeded to him. The problem is very few people can give me valid arguments, not my fault most fail.

You have some very strong preconceived notions about gaming topics, and in a way getting you to change them is like shifting someone to a new god. So of course no argument is ever going to be valid enough.
|
Man, I JUST covered that scenario in the very text you quoted. It's like you have selective reading. It's not my fault most people fail to present any valid arguments which fail to stand up on their own when they go through scrutiniy in the shower.

You yourself don't make valid arguments. Therefore you cannot hold others to the same standard.
"
I think matchmaking is retarded, it's nice to have but only as a back up to normal server choosing. It'd be nice to jump in a game of equal ranked players, however that's not always the case. More often than not you want specific mods, addons, etc. on the server with specific rules, settings, etc. Something most console players don't even understand since mods/addons/settings/etc. don't even exist the way they do on the PC."
Invalid: Most PC gamers play without mods, so how can they use them more often than not?
"Why PC onine is better? First off, as stated earlier, avergae Joe generally plays on consoles (not saying everyone that plays is an idiot, even I have to play so I can call games shitty), and as I stated earlier, average Joe is a fucking idiot. What's worse is that I don't have a nice little chat interface as a buffer and I have to listen to said idiots to actually communicate in the game."
Invalid: If Shio is right about the sheer number of PC gamers, there have to be more 'average' people playing PC games than console games. Therefore is the average PC gamer a fucking idiot? Your words not mine. Furthermore due to the fact that pretty much every PC is connected to the internet you'll find more 'fucking idiots' on PC game servers.

The problem here is that I have the OPTION to play matchmaking or choose my own servers in PC games. I have the OPTION of talking or not and listening or not to people and still being able to communicate. I have the OPTION to play with mods on or off.I have those OPTIONS, and I'm not shoehorned into one of them. That's why the PC online is so much better than the Console ones. It just has far more possibilities.
Also it's false about the mods assumption. Find9ing a vanilla WCIII is far harder than finding a DOTA game. Finding a UT2004 server now is even harder than that. Oblivion is utter PoS instead just mediocre without any of the mods on PCs. UTIII has become quite like UT2004 now too, it's harder to find a vanilla game than one without mods. Overall I fail to see where you are getting the idea that people play more vanilla and less mods. The only game wehre I can consistently find vanilla servers are L4D and TF2. And isn't TF2 just a mod of HL2 anyhow?
As for the idiots, at least those idiots know how to get their PC to run a simple game. More than I can say for most console gamers. From what I hear it's a painfully difficult process, hence they play on consoles and not PCs. I will give you the fact that WoW has an astouding amount of idiots, but at least I don't have to listen to them, I can choose not to read, it's far harder to choose not to hear.
