Yarik Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 What do you think is the biggest problem with online games? In my opinion, it's the cheaters that ruin the fun for everyone. There's no point in playing against someone who has an unfair advantage over others. Anti-cheat doesn't always catch everyone, so it's sad to see online games get ruined by cheaters.

Shagger Posted June 14 Share Posted June 14 The biggest problems I find with online game are usually the people who play them. Cheaters are a part of that, but these communities are often very toxic as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shortie Posted June 17 Share Posted June 17 I have to agree and say that the biggest problem with online games is not only the cheaters who ruin the games for everyone but also those who are toxic and like to ruin things for others as well with the things they say with no thought.

Kennysplash Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Online players sometimes ruin the fun of gaming. Sometimes they may resort to activities that are outside the gaming scope. A lady friend often tells me how male players hit on her when they discover she’s a lady. She rarely plays online these days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JennyorAlice Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 I don't normally play games online so I wouldn't know first hand. If the other players online were cheating and whatnot, I could see where that would ruin the fun of the game though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lens Posted July 8 Share Posted July 8 Based on my experience, the online games are like a double-edged sword. On one hand, they're very convenient and the also allows you to connect with people all over the world, which is good . But on the other hand, they could be a breeding grounds for cheating too.

Toxic people and cheaters will always exist in the gaming world. It’s a harsh reality of it all. Cheaters ruin the gameplay for everyone though.

It is great that game developers are trying to do something to make it less possible but they will always find their way around it no matter what.

I mean, games are meant to be enjoyed and it shouldn't be a source of toxic behavior. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Talking about the toxic behavior, it's indeed a huge problem. Cheating is definitely another issue and It's very unfair and also takes away the sense of accomplishment in the game.

I think another major issue is definitely the lack of sportsmanship. Most of the players often forget that the person behind the screen is real.
