Are you losing faith in gaming?

I'm losing faith in Online Multiplayer because it seems that 99% of all communities are nothing but toxic dickheads and people who have no idea what they're doing (or simply don't care about what they're doing) while publishers/developers are milking their games' MP more and more while not giving a shit about player feedback.
I love Rocket League, but I just can't play more than 2 games in a row without getting pissed at someone who's so shit that I genuinely think he/she only has 1 hand and it simply ruins the game for me. I'm not trying to say that I'm above average or anything, but there's A LOT of extremely, extremely bad players out there who are simply so bad that they ruin the game for their teammates. And there's a similar reason I just can't play more than 2 matches of Black Ops 3 or Battlefield 4 in a row: people don't give a fuck about the objective of the god damn gamemode they're playing.

More or less in the same situation for me. Just recently was I playing a few matches of Battlefront on PC for a few nights, each match full of people typing in stupid crap like "xDDDDD" every time they got the high score for camping or being generally annoying. Plenty of people going back and forth during those matches by slagging off one anoither like it's COD, all this while no one bothers to work as a team and that honestly pissed me off because it meant I died a lot since no one wants to look out for one another and the fact my team just act so stupid when it comes to taking objectives.

Battlefront isn't the only game I;ve had issues with when it came to other people, though most issues I;ve had with other players acting toxic or stupid has often been found in highly competitive games, shooters and even Mobas, at times MMO's as well. Funny part of all that is I;ve had very small encounters with highly toxic people when it came to co-op games or games that put focus on sandbox survival/co-op. I honestly don't think competitive gaming these days if at all is a healthy place to game in, the majority of my experiences from the past decade alone haven't been all that great, sure my co-op and local game experiences have been great but hardly the competitive side of gaming.

I too find myself being unable to play many matches of Battlefront and BF3-4 as much without getting bored to death or pissed because my team were just letting the other team win or only looking out for themselevs which is the complete opposite of teamwork, it's times like those described that make me want to go back to SP only games or ones that allow for co-op.
