Warning: Lots of words. Never in my life have I seen such rampant whining about a game. Has social media truly become a vehicle for anyone to jump on the negativity bandwagon and spew their perceived dislike of not only games, but anything and everything? Initial reviews of the game were not great, but they weren't terrible either. Apparently, that's enough for a select few to gain a foothold and infect the masses with someone else's cynical point of view. Just because you have a right to raise your voice doesn't mean you should. If you have a moment, I would love to take you back about 17 years or so, to the multiplayer games that started it all: Quake 3 Arena and Unreal Tournament. I would imagine many of you were still in diapers during the time I was instagibbed constantly in Q3A and ran roughshod on folks in UT. I couldn't aim for shit in Q3. The moment I spawned I died. No one complained. In UT, if someone ran by you and you only saw them for a split second, you died. No one complained. You were too slow; you weren't good enough to play with the big boys. You simply got up again and went back after it. It wasn't uncommon to die 30+ times a match. I was one of those people who 'got gud' & 'l2p.' I ended up top 5 in UT (I liked it better than Q3A). But I digress. Problems with games--CTD, BSOD, bugs, etc., have been around forever. Back in the day, we buckled down and figured it out or dealt with it. The most common thread title on a forum was was "How do I fix it/deal with it," not "This company sucks." Does MEAMP have some issues? Sure. Does that stop everyone? Nope. How many of the top 100 players are on here bitching about it? None. They're they're working around it and will adapt to future changes. The average player is just bitching because the bed isn't as comfortable as they'd like it. They can't deal with adversity. The top players are making due. I'm making due (I'm not top 100 or even 1000). I know there are issues. I'm pretty sure it's been stated that changes are coming. And I'm 100% certain people will still complain. The bottom line is play the game for what it is or shut up and leave. It's my opinion that when I browse this subforum, I want to see builds, gameplay video (informative and funny), and just general useful information about the game--not a bunch of whining from a small group of crybabies. This is not a daycare forum. It shouldn't have to hand out sippy cups with spongebob squarebritches logos and warm milk. If this is acceptable, then the forum admins need to create you guys a subforum you can call home. There's a fine line between whining and making others aware of issues. The more you whine, the more you separate the player base from the devs. They're people too, and I'm sure they'd love to talk to us reasonably about the issues with the game. The bottom line is, calm down stop posting garbage and be productive with your posts. If you're 18 or older, you're an adult. Act like it.

The problem is there is so much whining because the game just doesn't offer the players an opportunity to share anything out of this world. Builds are basic, there is no secret or quirk and even if it was its something as minimal as taking saving barrier beats out the other option. Gameplay is generic, because its always the same outlaws, nobody wants to play kett because of sync killing teleporters, and remnant cause a huge frame rate drop on the last few waves that can cause your game to go south and force you to use equipment you wouldn't have needed.
Unfortunately characters with useless powers forces every character to be a weapons unit, uninspiring weapons forces everyone to use the same 3 guns, and melee. Seriously people will always bitch but the amount of whining and shitposting is so high because there is nothing interesting to post about. The game in its current state is generic, there are no neat little tricks like reload cancelling, the most fascinating thing I have seen was the melee jump thing but that seems like so much work when just pressing the melee button twice ultimately has the same effect.
I am sorry that the community has disappointed you but until content gets better this is where we are just so we can be relatively interested in a game we just need to shit on it.

But all this hate for MEAMP...wow...just wow. Like most games these days, this game will never be perfect...you just have to accept it for what it is. Fortunately, there's still time for adjustments.

I read your title as a Krogan from ME3MP upon reviving: "STOP WHINING". Man, I wish MEA Krogan were as cool, both verbally and game-play wise, as ME3MP Krogan.
Crap I just whined.

For instance jetpacks are the reason why guns are so weak, two of the weakest guns being praised as the best and just general lack of knowledge and disconnect from the community. Hopefully things turn around because everyone here cares, but it looks bleaker with each dev stream or announcement. So we do our best to keep us the community happy, and we do it with memes and complaining because maybe just maybe, all our dream will come true and they listen.

Problems with games--CTD, BSOD, bugs, etc., have been around forever. Back in the day, we buckled down and figured it out or dealt with it. CTD and other severe problem are not acceptable. Not even Bioware defends it. This is wrong. If it annoys you that a lot of the complaints are redundant, that's reasonable. I think it's all been said dozens times by this point. But if people want to complain, they get to complain. If you don't like it, ignore them. This is typical of public forums. Lot of people are shitters.

OP I admire your noble, alas somewhat naive, intentions, but this is the fucking unoficial forums. People came here to express their fucking feelings towards the game, negative or positive. Alas, lately it is mostly negative but it is not the players fault.

I was there and I remember the key bug and Amelia and Penguin but sure we laughed madly when we had to constantly press the jump button the WHOLE MATCH in order to be able to move at all ... it is called Galgenhumor (gallows humor)
