Reply to comment by NaughtyyDoggo in Why are teammates in many video games so stupid? by IsaacR98
I don't want people to treat games too seriously, I want common sense to be common sense.. Its rather hard to have fun in team-based video games when your team makes you or only a few people do all the work.

You asked the question; if someone spends more time playing a game, they will be better at it. Most people don’t have much time to allocate to their hobby (the average gamer these days). So that means the average teammate will not be as good as you want them to be.

Okay? I obviously asked it, I don't understand the point you're trying to make about that.
However, skill isn't necessary to try to be a good teammate. Just think about common sense as best as you can and try putting some effort in. I do in games I'm new to.

It’s because you don’t like the answers you are hearing. People don’t play as much as you, it’s that simple. Even if you are playing a new video game, you have prior experience on other games, and average people lack that prior experience.

I don't care whether I like the answers or not. I can't control what people say lol
Also, I said this to address that point:
"However, skill isn't necessary to try to be a good teammate. Just think about common sense as best as you can and try putting some effort in. I do in games I'm new to."
If I can do it in games I'm completely a noob at, why can't they? Lol

Like a said 2-3 times already, you may be a new player to a certain game, but based on all the games you’ve played in the past you have a certain amount of “game sense” / experience. Average people have not played many games. So they lack that game sense/ awareness.

You haven't read what I said properly then. I'm saying that not enough effort in team games is what annoys me, not losing. Losing in a fun match or one with teammates trying to play as a team is fine. Also losing constantly could be annoying, but this is about playing as a team instead.

Dude stfu lmao. Probably a trash can yourself at any game you play. If people aren’t great at a game, then whatever. Imagine complaining about something like that on Reddit. Touch some grass

Cringe, I touch dirt instead.

I forgot to mention this, but I don't see how its impossible nor even difficult for someone new to video games to put a bit of effort into a team game lol

This is why multi-player games often include ranking systems. My recommendation is that you start playing ranked so that you are matchmaking with people who out as much effort/skill into the game as you do.
If you play random or casual games you are obviously going to get a lot of people who aren't skilled or aren't trying. Some people like hopping on a game and not caring or goofing off, we all enjoy ourselves differently

I know, I said that not many games I play have it. Its because I prefer more realistic games than arcade ones (they focus on balancing less). However, it doesn't seem to matter how serious the game is.

What type of games are you referring to?
