Why is the UK so trash tier at videogames? >70 million population

>>387127142
Unironically they aren't autistic enough. Even their spergs have too much banter

>>387127142
We don't have much of a video games culture at all here. Like much of Europe it's just FIFAland and most people are casual as fuck. We're not as autistic as Swedes or Germans as >>387127349 points out.

>>387127142
Professor Pro tho

Too busy being blasted on cheap pints in Spoons

>>387127428
I think that actually lots of people play, but nobody here likes to admit it. It's still a bit socially unacceptable to like vidya.

I play loads of things but most people wouldn't know.

>>387127142
they are all cucks

>>387127710
I live in Nottingham and we have a National Video Game Arcade Musuem here. It gets enough visitors but it's mostly used for kids parties and Smash tourneys with like 50 entrants.

It's not bad but the UK just simply lacks a big hub for competitive scenes.

And don't say London cuz it's shit and many refuse to go there

The UK is on the opposite end of the autism spectrum, they're prime material for e-celeb Twitch streamers/YouTubers who sponge money off of kids.

Because even the most socially inept bong is drunk near constantly from 18 to 25 by which point it's too late

Internet is shit tier

People in the UK who like games don't tend to stick to one I think. So where a lot of other countries will have people that autistically learn one thing, we are sort of average at lots of things.

>>387127142
>esports
If it weren't for all the ingame purchases and the damn dlc passes esports would be the top cancer of gaming

>>387127939
This. The eternal anglo reaps the riches from the autists

>>387127827
Smashzilla is still pretty lit

>>387127142
We're usually better casters than players.

Reminder that only huge faggots give a shit about "e-sports"

>>387127142
unironically there's a stigma against brits in some games. I remember trying out for dota 2 teams a few years back
>oh he's a brit, bet he rages constantly
>wait for him to get angry
>watch him throw
etc.

>>387127142
>Even somewhere like Sweden
It's literally the european capital of esports and one of the most successful countries in e-sports ever

>>387128151
Been away for a while but got 17th in Sm4sh with DK last time I went. Was fun af

Since this thread is filled with Brits, are there any of you who can't stand playing games with other Brits? I've met a handful of people from Scotland and Wales over the past few years who aren't bad but I don't think I've met a single player from England who I can stand. Something about them is so annoying. They talk so much shit and not in a funny way, and I swear to God those who aren't young enough to still be in sixth form never communicate so it's difficult to find them. I only play with east coast Americans/Germans/Finns.

>>387128197
Aww, poor little brit takes a taste of his own medicine

We're not sad cunts that autistically sit behind a computer for 15 hours a day.

>>387128276
Good one

If we scots had our own teams we would be whooping europe's arse all day but unfortunately we're held back by angry englishmen who claim we're british.

>>387128246
Depends on the game. I play Smash 4 and the community is pretty chilled/not salty at all.

>stupid bongs claiming they aren't autistic retards
you're the worst players and the most annoying faggot betas

>>387128246
I would rather play with a fellow brit than a yank any day of the week.

>>387127939
This. The thing you can notice is that you'll often see bongs doing hosting and casting duties in esports.

>>387128246
I don't mind other brits but a lot of them can be annoying northerners. I am probably considered annoying too though so whatever.

>>387128338
>Scots
>Implying they're not raging just as much as the English

Just because they sound funny when they do doesn't mean they're not the most saltiest fuckers ever.

>>387128246
I literally never communicate with Voicechat because 90% of the time it's a tool used for mongoloids anyway.

All the good brits play fighting games, but they're pretty much the joke of the FGC world. If America is free, the UK drowned in pools.

>>387127142
>no esport players
But that's a good thing. Video games are for fun.

>>387128232
I'm from London and only went once, but it had such a more electric atmosphere. In London you get a higher skill level which is good for training, but it sometimes feels like a "bootcamp" as some Northerners have put it.

>>387128362
>Bongs
>Beta

The most Beta people I have ever met are Turks, and followed closely by those are Yanks.

Turks and Yanks can NEVER have a joke be at their expense. It's why they're literally bottom of the barrel in the bants game.

>>387128358
Ah. I don't play fighting games, so I can't relate to you on that.

>>387128390
A lot of Americans are quite nice and chill. I've also found the ones that are good at games tend to be quite relaxed (at least some of them), but any Britfag with any semblance of skill is the sort of person who rages constantly.

>>387128408

I only use it for callouts if I'm playing FPS games. I stay quiet most of the time now, too.

Turks are the worst.

>>387128496

British banter is like Jews. There isn't a single society in history that likes them, but you have money so everyone is forced to deal with it.

>>387128743
I just thought, though, there's a weird exception that applies to game servers. There's this one Condition Zero (>Condition Zero) 18+ server and it's filled with older people who talk and there's plenty of banter. A few women too but surprisingly that doesn't make it shit.

While we're on the subject, what is it with German Counter-Strike servers and women in their 30s? Every single one has at least a handful of women in their 30s who regularly play there.

>>387127142
we are ok at minecraft, racing sims and fifa

>>387128246
Im just gonna come out and say it. Londoners are the worst brits to play with. 90 percent of them speak in that horrible grime chav talk like fucking stormzy and you cant understand a single god damn word they are saying, which is a lot considering how many accents we have in this country. Its like some horrible fusion between Cockney, Jamaican slang, Chav and a sprinkle of slurring every other word. Everytime I go to any gaming thing I can get along with every other person but as soon as a London guy comes along its all "AYY WAGWAN BRUV MANS GOTTA PLAY SOME STREET FIGHTER TING" like what the actual fuck are you saying

>>387128854

Yanks are a mixed bag, but generally boring people to listen or speak to in-game. Every slow speaking, nasal-voiced dullard you ever hear state nothing but what's happening in-game at the current moment - or if you're lucky, some unopinionated, lukewarm opinion like 'Oh I like that game, it's a good game.' - is always an American.

I haven't played with many Brits so I wouldn't know

>>387129521
Shitskins blowing themselves up in Manchester and gangraping children in Rochdale were probably just London culture seeping out I suppose

Because Brits are normally hated online for being salty and abusive, so actual good players normally refuse to play with us on principle
Plus the idea of playing video games for a living is probably one of the most stigmatised things going around here, not much of an e-sports market either so even our best competitors wouldn't get any support from home

with like nuka-themed shots etc

i was with a group of normies so I had to say what a gay nerd he was, but the point is that in the UK every fat 20 year old with zelda clothes and cargo pants also goes out drinking, taking E pills and fucking similarly pimpled fat dork girls

Because in the UK video games are still sneered at and seen as the realm of losers. A sports channel started showing some e-sports and they got a ton of complaints.

It's more like calling someone an asshole, if you want the American version. The British version of cunt doesn't carry any connotations of cowardice.

The American perception of the word cunt is different. I don't fully understand it, but I think it sounds to their ears like something a rapist would say. British "cunt" refers to a type of person. American "cunt" is a very angry and sleazy word for vaginas. It makes them think of that guy from the "Bueno" meme.

At least, that's how I imagine Americans see it.

There's a much bigger tabletop and tcg/ccg scene in the UK. Warhammer and Warmachine are hueg here, as is Pokemon and Magic. It's odd that I think there's a stigma associated with gamers, in the UK at least. To provide one example, I know a guy who owns a warehouse and he happily rents it out to tournaments for various tabletop shit and has even hosted big poker tourneys, but he absolutely flat out refused to let me host a C&C Generals LAN tourney in 2005 because he said gamers would tleave the place in a right old state.

There weren't ever many arcades in England, but there always were loads of warmage clubs.

I made a conscious effort to educate myself on geography and history since our school system only taught us tudors and normans. It's crazy how little we were taught about world history. History is now one of my favourite subjects, and I ended up learning the locations of most countries off the top of my head as a result. A lot of us think history is worthless because of shitty school stuff. We had to do shit like build a tudor house out of paper mache as an assessment.

>>387130149
>All the high paying jobs in the nation are here.

Which is meaningless when the living costs are so high.

Unless you're absolutely top tier, the extra money you're earning is just going on living expenses (ridiculous rent, food, transport). And on top of that you're stuck in a packed city, with a sky high crime rate and queues fucking everywhere.

>still far more developed than 18th century tier cities outside london.

Because counties aren't really that important in the UK, and the boundaries are often changed.

For example Manchester and Liverpool used to be in Lancashire, now they're their own counties. People have more pride and sense of belonging to their city than they do an arbitrary county.

I think a lot of it comes down to football culture, most cities inside counties are huge rivals.

If football was like cricket and had Lancashire, Yorkshire etc then you'd see a lot more focus on them

Because Brits are a sad pathetic society getting fucked in the ass by karma for what they have done to the west in the last 200 years. They can't buy a spoon without ID, need a license to own a television, and their capital is conquered by Muslims.

When an American tells his friends he is thinking of starting a business, they tell him it's a great idea and to go for it. When a continental European tells his friends he is thinking of starting a business, they tell him he definitely should, if he has a plan. When a Brit tells his friends he is thinking of starting a business, they laugh at him and call him a retard. That's how much spine a Brit has.

Not problems I face where I live. It's hilarious — and also a shame — that you bring up the first reason as a legitimate and persfectly reasonable cause of traffic jams in cities. And I think you lack the comprehension to understand volume vs capacity. Cities are congested because more people live there. It's a fucking FACT. My quaint little town has 2-way roads 5 metres wide on most every thoroughfare and there are never traffic jams despite the amount of parked trucks or shoppers, because traffic volume is low. Volume vs capacity. Learn it. Understand it.

Except that i live in a big city and never have traffic problems and neither do my mates because we live where everything is within a comfy reach

If you are talking about city outskirts you may have a point

But ive lived the countrycuck life, its shit, none of my friends lived near me, nearest store was forever away, it was just cabbages for miles

And then i moved somewhere urban and not retarded, made some new homies, got laid, went out with pretty blonde girls to eat sushi now and then, etc.

Countrycuck life is good if you like fucking animals or intense cabbage growing action i guess

>>387132301
Whatever you say, anon.

>>387131992
how when fuck will brits count the time now? they are fucked

>>387132301

I live in LA you irrelevant country retard, its just a meme, you get delayed by a few minutes at worst

Even if my travel time DOUBLED because it somehow got so bad, itd go from a 10 min trip to a 20 min one, which is way better than the countrytard 40 minute express

>>387132368
Oh I really enjoy living in the part of the country that houses Birmingham, Wolverhampton and the various other dives of cities.

Darlo here, it's alright. Not too big, not too quiet

>>387132376
I live in Amersham and get mad pussy from just a £15 cab ride to HW or Beaconsfield. I can drive 10 minutes to either place and enjoy a busy town vibe and then drive back to my cabbages and not have to listen to muslims' guttural accents and dumb citywhites with their white guilt.

>>387131992

>>387132581
It's alright for what it is. Looks like a shithole but it isn't that rough. The cities are way worse
