What is something you've come across in a video game that is so insignificant, but stuck out so much that it made you absolutely infuriated? Post your stories and whatever.
Mine? The High Charity doors in the Cortana level in Halo 3. [b]THEY LOOK NOTHING LIKE THE DOORS IN HALO 2!!! WHAT THE HELL BUNGIE??? LITERALLY UNPLAYABLE!!!!!!![/b]
Dying in the ship turret in Battlefront II was also annoying.

>Overwatch When people complain about no support but also won't switch off a defense character to be support. When people blame support for losing because the support keeps dying from being targeted. When people spam "I need healing" but won't walk around the corner to get healed no matter how many times you say "hello" to them. People on the enemy team who think they can counter me by playing the same character. Pharah vs pharah, Roadhog vs Roadhog, oh look solider vs solider. >Battlefield 1 People who immediately attack the point that's across the map next to the spawn of the enemy team (attacking A or F) People who see a tank or plane is avalible but immediately die or crash it into a point. Medics who see that you're dead, no enemies are around, and that it's pretty much safe but never revive you even though you see the meters get closer, further, closer, and then disappear. >GTA online People who honk their horn at you to get in their car even though they clearly see you're with friends or doing something. If you shoot them they go through the rest of the session trying to get revenge, if you don't they run you over until you die or drive away. People who send you Xbox invites even though you're in the session with them. Asking what they want receives no reply but several more invites. People who follow you everywhere for no reason. People who see you're in a jet/tank minding your own business or attacking a person for messing with you and your friends and they come after you. And overall, people with shit connections that blame it on you

A slow not very reactive menu

Not insignificant, artificial difficulty. If you scale your game's difficulty by adding elastic/just beefing up enemy stats/trigger happiness then you're a bad developer and don't care about the player. There's a difference between grinding through bullet sponges that can kill you in 1 hit and outwitting a foe that takes cover when necessary and attempts flanking. Same goes for Racing games too.

Clipping. When a character hold a gun or has certain armor and just standing still, part of it goes into the character. Like, did nobody think to curve this shoulder pad away from the head?

Constant DLC for story content.

DLC on top of Microtransactions. It's one or the other IMO. Both is just pure greed. *Looks at Destiny*

Games that give you a choice that ultimately is meaningless in the end when the solution is the same no matter what you chose.

The owl in The Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time. Skipping ahead in the dialogue only to say "yes" to "Do you want hear what I said again?"

For Honor: People who let 1v2s or1v3s or 1v4s happen. Okay, sure, I'll play duel if I want a 1v1, but can I at least get some help for these entire team I'm fighting?? This has gotten so bad I've mastered the art of fighting impossible odds, it turns into "Oh, a 1v4, I'll take three of you with me". People who play peacekeeper, say they're good, and when I watch them play, they're spamming their guard break poison. C'mon man. SWTOR/WOW: People who queue for tank or heals but don't know how to play that role. When I run raids and I ask if everyone knows the fights, only three people out of a group of eight or ten will respond to me. To remedy this, I make everyone that I can tell is trying to get a carry do the important stuff, so I can justify kicking them or publicly shame them for trying to get away with a carry. Borderlands: Playing with the one guy who takes[u]everything[/u]. Tiny Tina is annoying (Fite me) Clap Trap is annoying(Fite me) In general: People who say a game is dead, it's not like they're usually ever correct about it either.

Edited by EdglnYor: 3/21/2017 9:56:14 PMWhen you tried to do friends in high places war story but you suck at flying on bf1 Movie wise, in rogue one, why the heck do they make the side panels on the at at a sand colour? I get that it operates on a sandy island but to me its pointless and actually makes it stand out more.
