Online video gaming sucks? Is it impossible to have fun playing human vs human?

I am very disappointed with video games lately, but with online games it just seems impossible to make a quality game. I haven't played that much online games, but you can clearly see that 98% of the players that go online are people with the mind of a 10 year old. You just can't have fun, unless you play a game 10 hours a day, learn every move, every trick, every map at perfection, and own everybody else. But the goal of these people is not to have fun, but to win. I often see idiots doing lame things in BF 2 like camping vehicles, proning when 2 metres in front of me, bunny hoping, etc. The critical thing is that most of them are even stupider than the AI. I order them to pick me up in the vehicle...they ignore. I throw them medical supplies...they go on although they're almost dead. I tell them to get in the car..they preffer 200 m of walking. What to tell about teamwork? That is impossible. Sometimes, I feel that only incurable idiots play games.I think coop is the only solution.

It has always been that way. One of the defining characteristics of online gaming is that it's much more enjoyable if you play with friends that you brought with you. You must either A) make friends in the real world who will play with you online or b) find mature players online, befriend them online, and play games with them online.

We try to get as far as we can.
Reply:Well if it makes you feel any better I make a point to only use my headset for casual chit chat, battle strategy and playful trash talk with friends (not strangers because I don't know how they'll react to it). I still play online though, I actually find the types of noobs you mentioned funny and entertaining. My goal isn't to win but I'm decent at most games I play, decent enough to own people who use cheap tactics anyway. It's hilarious to hear them over the headset bitching, free entertainment since it's not included in the games price tag.
Reply:why not try a different game, mabye something where you have to depend on your teammates instead of work around them. an MMORPG perhaps. Try City of Heroes, they have a terrificly friendly atmosphere and most people are more than willing to try and work WITH you rather than just alongside you.
